Permitting History:
A building permit and ROGO allocation were applied for on September 24, 2001, (Year 10, Quarter 1).

building department, and (1) point from environmental resources as the subject property was determined
to be Habitat Protection Group I, disturbed/scarified, by the Upper Keys Biologist

vacant lots. The rest of the Largo Sound Park Subdivision is largely built out, with few lots remaining

Development Regulations, and is not identified as being in the Conservation and Natural Areas (CNA).
Eligibility for Administrative Relief Options:
Section 9.5-122.2(t) of the Monroe County Land Development Regulations and Policy 101.6.1 or the
2010 Comprehensive Plan provides a mechanism whereby an application which has not received an
allocation award in ROGO may apply to the JJoard of county Commissioners for Administrative Relief.

unit allocation system and having been considered in at least three (3) of the last four consecutive annual
allocation periods and having submitted their application for Administrative Relief no earlier than the
third annual allocation period and no later than ninety (90) days following the close of the fourth

include issuance of an allocation award or just compensation by purchase of the property or such other
relief as may be necessary or appropriate.

endangered or threatened animal species. It therefore does not meet the criteria established under the
existing Policy 101.6,6 and Policy 102.4.2, or the proposed Policy 101.6.5 of the Year 2010
