AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of a Resolution and Amendment to Development
Agreement between Monroe County, Florida, and Banyan Grove Development Corporation
(Spottswood Partners, Inc.), currently Banyan Grove Residences, LTD, and Monroe County, for
property located along Overseas Highway, Stock Island, Monroe County, Florida, currently having

ITEM BACKGROUND: This is a proposed 1st Amendment to a Development Agreement
("proposed Amendment" or "Amendment") documented in Board of County Commissioners
("BOCC") Resolution No. 032-2011. The proposed Amendment, if approved by the BOCC, would
approve an extension of the current Development Agreement by ten (10) more years, and would
allow the property owner ("developer") to transfer twenty-four (24) market-rate, Rate of Growth
Ordinance ("ROGO") exemptions, associated with fifty-one (51) previously existing lawfully
established dwellin units, to a multi famil residential receiver site on Stock Island.

The development has been constructed and a Certificate of Occupancy for all forty-eight (48)
associated affordable units has been issued since June 20, 2013.
The material changes that are being proposed by the developer's proposed Amendment are as
follows:
A request for approval of an extension of time to the development agreement, lengthening it an
additional ten (10)years.
Allow for the transfer of the market-rate ROGO Exemptions at a one for two (1-for-2) basis to
properties other than Improved Subdivision ("IS") lots, meaning 50% could be transferred to sites
other than single family lots in non-Improved Subdivision (non-IS) land use (zoning) districts. The
Land Development Code language that the developer is requesting for the Monroe County Board of
County Commissioners to add to this Development Agreement, used to exist, at the time the original
Development Agreement was approved and legally effective (2011), under Monroe County Land
Development Code ("LDC") Section 130-161.1.
The Development Agreement was approved on January 19, 2011, and became legally effective on
March 16, 2011.
On November 16, 2021, the Planning Commission of Monroe County conducted a public hearing to
review and consider the request filed by Bart Smith, as an agent for Banyan Grove Residences, LTD.
The Planning Commission voted to recommend approval with the recommendation of the
following:
1. That clarification be added to the proposed Amendment regarding the disposition
of the remaining 24 market-rate ROGO exemptions not transferred under the
previously existing"1-for-2" Code text.
The Transfer of ROGO Exemptions ("TREs") of the permanent market-rate dwelling units will
require at a minimum one minor conditional use permit to complete a transfer.
CONTRACT/AGREEMENT CHANGES:
n/a
STAFF RECOMMENDATION: The Planning & Environmental Resources Department
recommends approval of the proposed 10-year extension of the Development Agreement, but does
NOT recommend approval of the proposed change to allow the transfer of TREs to multifamily
projects or commercial and working waterfront properties, based on inconsistency with the current
Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code, recent policy direction by the Board of County
Commissioners, and the limited number of ROGO allocations remaining compared to the number of
vacant,privately owned parcels within unincorporated Monroe County.
Although the County Attorney has opined that it is legally permissible for the BOCC to approve
such a change to the Development Agreement, he specifically states that"the Board is not obligated
Packet Pg. 3409
R.4
to agree to the amendment proposed by Banyan Grove;" staff s recommendation is that although
legally permissible, the proposed amendment regarding TREs is not advisable from a Planning
perspective.
If the Board of County Commissioners does choose to approve the full Amendment to the
Development Agreement, staff requests that clarification be added to the Amendment regarding the
disposition of the remaining 24 market-rate ROGO exemptions not transferred under the"1 for 2"
option, recommended to be put in Administrative Relief.

29 permanent residential ROGO exemptions to commercial or recreational working
30 waterfront or multi-family projects in non-IS districts on a 1 for 2 basis. The 48-
31 market rate permanent residential ROGO exemptions may be transferred to
32 commercial or recreational working waterfront or multi-family projects in non- hI
33 IS districts, as long as at least twice as many deed-restricted affordable dwelling
34 units remain at the sender site, which allows up to 24 market rate permanent
35 residential ROGO exemptions. A minor conditional use permit shall be required
36 for each receiver site. If a receiver site receives multiple ROGO exemptions,
37 only a single minor conditional use permit shall be required. The Growth E
38 Management Division of Monroe County shall track the transfer of all ROGO
39 exemptions by the assignment of unique tracking numbers, which shall be
40 assigned as each receiver site is identified and approved.

Memo
To: Emily Schemper, Senior Director of Planning & Environmental Resources
From: Bob Shillinger, County Attorney
Date: March 24, 2021
Re: Banyan Grove Development Agreement proposed amendment
0.
c
I have been asked to opine regarding whether the Banyan Grove Development
Agreement the Board approved on January 19th, 2011 (hereafter "the 2011
Development Agreement") can be lawfully amended to allow the developer to add into
that Agreement a Land Development Code provision that existed in January 2011 and
the Board abolished after January 2011, which was not expressly included in the 2011
Development Agreement. Specifically, a 2011 Land Development Code provision that
allowed developers to transfer market rate ROGO exemptions to multifamily
development projects located in non-IS land use (zoning) districts at a transfer ratio of
one market rate ROGO exemption for every two housing units deed restricted as E
affordable or workforce left remaining on the sender site (the "2-for-1 option"), even
though that Code provision formed a subject of Interim Development Ordinance Nos. E
011-2017, 020-2018, and 026-2019, and was stricken from the Land Development
Code pursuant to Section 1 of Ordinance No. 007-2020. That ordinance amended
Section 139-2(b) (3) of the Code to eliminate the 2-for-1 option. The pre-amendment
language that used to allow developers to utilize the 2-for-1 option formerly' provided as
follows:
N
"However, where transfers are to be made to commercial or recreational working 2
waterfronts (as defined by Florida Statutes), or to multifamily projects in non IS
districts, the transfers shall result in no fewer than two deed restricted affordable
or workforce housing units remaining on an eligible sender site(s) for each
market rate ROGO exemption transferred. This section expresses the county's
preference for transfer of ROGO exemptions to single family lots/parcels."
The short answer is yes, assuming the BOCC consents to the developer's request for
such an amendment, it appears lawful for the Board to amend the 2011 Development
Agreement in a manner that incorporates the 2-for-1 option that was available in 2011
but which was later stricken from the Code.
Analysis. Florida courts have defined a development agreement "as a contract
between a [local government] and a property owner/developer, which provides the
0
developer with vested rights by freezing the existing zoning regulations applicable to a
property in exchange for public benefits." Morgran Co. Inc. v. Orange County, 818
So.2d 640, 643 (Fla. 5t" DCA 2002); see also Preserve Palm Beach Political Action
Committee v. Town of Palm Beach, 50 So.3d 11767 1179 (Fla. 4t" DCA 2010) (quoting E
Morgran Co., 818 So. 2d at 643). "Florida law permits local governments to impose

`conditions, terms and restrictions' as part of these agreements, where necessary for
the public health, safety or welfare of its citizens." Morgran Co., 818 So.2d at 643 (citing
F.S. 163.3227(1)(h) (1999)).
Development agreements are a form of development orders, which "are often the
product of negotiations between a developer and a [local government]." Preserve Palm
Beach Political Action Committee, 50 So.3d at 1179.
c
Development agreements are authorized by the Florida Local Government
Development Agreement Act, (hereinafter "the Act") which is codified at F.S. 163.3220
through 163.3243. The Act "shall be regarded as supplemental and additional to the
powers conferred upon local governments by other laws and shall not be regarded as in
derogation of any powers [then] existing." F.S. 163.3220(5).
The Act provides for the amendment or cancellation of a development agreement "by
mutual consent of the parties to the agreement or by their successors in interest." F.S.
163.3237.
The Act also provides that "the local government's laws and policies governing the
development of land at the time of the execution of the development agreement
shall_-govern the development of land for the duration of the a_greement." F.S.
163.3233(1) (Emphasis added). That section limits the ability of a local government to
apply subsequently adopted laws and policies to a development agreement only to
situations when "the local_-government has held a public and hearin_g and
determined.
N
(a) They are not in conflict with the laws and policies governing the development 2
agreement and do not prevent development of the land uses, intensities,
or densities in the development agreement;
(b) They are essential to the public health, safety, or welfare, and expressly state
that they shall apply to a development that is subject to a development
agreement;
(c) They are specifically anticipated and provided for in the development
agreement;

(d) The local government demonstrates that substantial changes have occurred

(e) The development agreement is based on substantially inaccurate information

Monroe County has taken none of the steps set forth in F.S. 163.3233(2) that the
County would need to take to apply the terms of Ordinance 007-2020 to the 2011
Development Agreement. Moreover, Ordinance 007-2020 does not contain the
requisite language of retroactivity necessary to apply that new law adopted in 2020 to
the 2011 Development Agreement. See, Basel v. McFarland & Sons, Inc., 815 So.2d
687, 692 (Fla. 5t" DCA 2002).
"The presumption against retroactive application of law that affects substantive rights, 0.
liability, or duties is a well-established rule of statutory construction. . . .[T]he mere fact
that retroactive application of a new statute would vindicate its purpose more fully . . . is
not sufficient to rebut the presumption against retroactivity."'Arrow Air, Inc. v. Walsh,
645 So.2d 422, 425 (Fla. 1994) (quoting Landgraf v. USI Film Products, 511 U.S. 244,
114 S.Ct. 1483, 128 L.Ed.2d 229 (1994)).
"Two interrelated inquiries arise when considering whether statutes or amendments
thereto should be retroactively applied. The first inquiry is one of statutory construction:
whether there is clear evidence of legislative intent to apply the statute retrospectively. If
the legislation clearly expresses an intent that it apply retroactively, then the second E
inquiry is whether retroactive application is constitutionally permissible. Basel, 815
So.2d at 692. "Even when the legislature expressly states that a statute is to have E
retroactive application, courts will refuse to apply the statute retroactively if the statute
impairs vested rights, creates new obligations, or imposes new penalties." Basel, at
692.
N
N
I nasm uch as the Act:
1) vests Banyan Grove with the County's land development regulations as it
existed at the time of contract formation, i.e. in 2011;
2) specifically mandates that the County's land development code and policies
at the time of contract formation governs the development of land for the
entire duration of the 2011 Development Agreement;
3) specifically authorizes the parties to the 2011 Development Agreement to
amend that agreement by mutual agreement;
2
r_
0
as well as the facts that the County has taken none of the steps required to apply the
newly enacted Ordinance 007-2020 retroactively to the 2011 Development Agreement, I
am of the opinion and you are hereby advised that if Banyan Grove wishes to amend
the 2011 Development Agreement to take advantage of a since-repealed provision of
the County's Land Development Code that was in effect in 2011, including the 2-for-1
option, it may lawfully do so assuming the BOCC consents to such an amendment.
In rendering this opinion, I am mindful that multiple Florida cases stand for the
proposition that, because land development regulations are in derogation of the
Packet Pg. 3428
R.4.c
common law, such regulations should be construed in favor of the property owner in the
absence of clear language in those regulations to the contrary. See, e.g.., Rinker
Materials Corp. v. City of North Miami, 286 So.2d 552, 553 (Fla. 1973); see, also,
Persaud Properties FL Investments LLC v. Town of Ft. Myers Beach, So.3d , 45
FLW D2772, 2020 WL 7310765 (Fla. 2d DCA 2020); Mandelstam v. City of South
Miami, 539 So.2d 11397 1140 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); and City of Miami Beach v. 100
Lincoln Road, Inc., 214 So.2d 39 (Fla. 3d DCA 1968) ("Since zoning laws are in
derogation of the common law, as a general rule they are subject to strict construction in
favor of the right of a property owner to the unrestricted use of his property."). While
these cases address specific zoning laws of local governments, I believe a court would
apply the same principles when construing the Act, since that statute provides a
framework and mechanism for vesting a developer's right in such regulations, as they
existed when a development agreement is entered into. Moreover, I am aware of no
case or attorney general's opinion interpreting the Act in a manner that would prohibit
the parties to the 2011 Development Agreement to amend that agreement to
incorporate a Land Development Code provision that existed at the time that agreement
was entered into in January 2011 but which the Board subsequently abolished. Under
these limited circumstances, I believe a court would construe the law in the light most E
favorable to the property owner by finding that the law does not prohibit that property
owner as a party to a development agreement from attempting to amend that E
agreement in the manner proposed.
Since an amendment to a Development Agreement requires the consent of both parties
to that agreement, I note that the Board is not obligated to agree to the amendment
proposed by Banyan Grove. In short, it is an option that the parties are free to avail
themselves of but the Board retains the discretion to not consent to the amendment.

C. Permitted Uses.
0
1. In accordance with this First Amended Development Agreement and with
the Mixed Use (MU) Land Use district, the permitted uses for Property
include: forty eight (48) two and three-bedroom affordable housing units, 'o
accessory recreational uses, a minimum of 72 parking spaces, and an 800 t�
square foot project management office which will be a portion of the one
unit rented to the manager of the project.
2. The unit density of the Property is 20 units per gross acre. While this o

Development Regulations, the density of lawful dwelling units is not E
considered nonconforming in accordance with Section 130-163 of the
Monroe County Code. Specifically, this section states "Notwithstanding
the provisions of sections 130-157, 130-158, and 130-162, the owners of
land upon which a lawfully established dwelling unit, mobile home, or 2-
transient residential unit exists shall be entitled to one dwelling unit for
each type of dwelling unit in existence before January 4, 1996. Such
legally-established dwelling unit shall not be considered as a 'o
2
nonconforming use". a
D. Public Facilities. There are no impacts on public facilities, since the number of
lawfully approved units is derived from pre-existing mobile homes and
commercial floor area is not increased by approval and application of this
Agreement. The number of units and the commercial floor area were recognized a
in the planning for the sewage treatment plant serving this area of Stock Island
and the units and floor area were accounted for as existing in the data base
prepared for the Monroe County 2010 Comprehensive Plan.
1. The Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority provides domestic potable water to E
the Property. The Florida Keys Aqueduct Authority will individually c
meter each unit.
2. Electric service is provided by Keys Energy Services to the Property, and
each unit will be individually metered.

Key West, Monroe County, Florida, at mile marker 5 of US Highway 1 fronting on
MacDonald Avenue and US Highway 1, with access to and from the site from
MacDonald Avenue (the "Property"), the legal description of which is attached to the
Development Agreement recorded January 27, 2011 in Monroe County Official Records
Book 2502 Page 2502 ("Development Agreement") as Exhibit A.

designates all the parcels of the Property as "Mixed Use/Commercial" on its Future Land
Use Map. The County Land Use District map designation for the Property is" Mixed

hearing, in accordance with Florida Statutes Section 163.3229 (2007). For the
duration of this Agreement, the Parties agree that any development shall comply o

each type of dwelling unit in existence before January 4, 1996. Such
legally-established dwelling unit shall not be considered as a
U)
nonconforming use". .�

lawfully approved units is derived from pre-existing mobile homes and
commercial floor area is not increased by approval and application of this �
Agreement. The number of units and the commercial floor area were recognized
in the planning for the sewage treatment plant serving this area of Stock Island
and the units and floor area were accounted for as existing in the data base E
prepared for the Monroe County 2010 Comprehensive Plan.

�4 , 1. Based on the application, the proposed project amends the Planning Commission Resolution
#P 12-00 exclusively with regards to the northern part of the development identified with RE#
0012140-000000. The Resolution #P12-00 and amendment to it under Resolution #P34-01
and conditions of the approvals under those resolutions still apply to the southern portion of
the development known as Spotswood Shops.
2. Based on the Development Order#02-1989 and the Memorandum dated November 13, 2002
from the Assistant County Attorney, the property is vested to have the rights to be
redeveloped with up to 51 ROGO exempt residential units subject to compliance with all
other applicable land development regulation. Therefore, we find that the ROGO exempt
residential units are not transferable off-site per Section 9.5-120.4(b) and can only be built
back on-site in accordance with Section 9.5-120.4(a).
3. Based on the application,the applicant is proposing to build 14,129 Sq. Ft. of vested medium 0.
intensitycommercial use and seven 7 market rates residential units. Although( ) we find the 2
project to be in compliance with sections 9.5-262 and 9.5-269, the Site Plan shall be revised
to show correct Site Analysis related to residential density and site utility information.
a
4. Based on the County's Traffic Consultant letter dated December 16, 2002, although the
submitted traffic report has adequately addressed all related issues, it is not clear if the flow
of traffic inside the property is adequate. Therefore, we conclude that a site plan showing the
vehicle maneuverability inside the property shall be submitted.
c
5. Based on the County's Traffic Consultant letter dated December 16, 2002, it appears that the
site plan for the Burger King Restaurant, located adjacent to the project site was intended to E
provide common use access between the two properties. Therefore, we find that the applicant
shall explore the feasibility of having internal connection between the two properties to
reduce the vehicular traffic on adjacent streets, especially US 1 Highway.
6. Based on the application, a storm water management plan has been provided with the W
submitted plans. Therefore, we find that the plan shall be reviewed and approved by the
Monroe County Engineer to determine compliance with Section 9.5-293. .2
X
7. Based on the application, connection to the Key West Resort Utilities is the preferred option
for wastewater treatment. However, we find that if the applicant decides to use on site
sewage treatment plant, the existing Environmental Health Permit must be revised and E
approval of the Department of Health and/or the Department of Environmental Protection U
shall be submitted.
8. Based on the application, coordination with the Fire Marshal has started. Therefore, we
conclude that conceptual approval of the project by the Fire Marshal's Office is needed.
9. Based on the application, a letter of coordination has been submitted to the Florida Keys
Aqueduct Authority (FKAA). Therefore, we conclude that the plans shall be reviewed and
approved by FKAA.

�*w 10. Based on the application, coordination with the Keys Energy Services (KEYS) has started.
According to the letter of coordination dated September 12, 2002, KEYS will need a full set
of plans and a project review form to determine load requirement. Therefore, we conclude
that approval of the plans by KEYS is required.
11. To preserve the community character of the area,we find that metal roof shall be used for the
proposed Eckerd Drug Store.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF MONROE
COUNTY, FLORIDA, that the preceding Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law support its
