WHEREAS, the County is authorized under its Comprehensive Plan and Land
Development Regulations to issue up to one-hundred eighty-two (182) new residential ROGO
permits per year; and
WHEREAS, a certain number of the new residential ROGO allocation awards allocated
annually by the County represent a prorata number of new residential development within the
boundaries of the City; and
WHEREAS, the City, Department, and County agree that twenty-four (24) new
residential ROGO allocation awards per year through July 2002 represents a good faith
estimate of the City's prorated number of permits it can issue per year for new residential
development within the boundaries of the City; and
WHEREAS, the City, Department, and County agree that the number of residential
ROGO allocation awards that should be distributed between the County and the various cities,
including the City, remains to be determined, as recognized by Policy 101.2.5 of the County
Comprehensive Plan, and that the twenty-four (24) residential ROGO allocation awards (on an
annual basis) distributed to the City by this Agreement is an interim measure; and
WHEREAS, the City and County are required to issue development orders only III
conformity with their approved Comprehensive Plans and Land Development Regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Department is the state land planning agency with the power and duty
to exercise general supervision of Part I of Chapter 380, and Part II of Chapter 163, Florida
Statutes, and to enter into agreements pursuant to Section 380.032(3), Florida Statutes, to

2
WHEREAS, the Department is authorized by section 380.07, Florida Statutes, to
appeal any City or County development order to the Florida Land and Water Adjudicatory
Commission if the development order does not comply with the Comprehensive Plan and Land
Development Regulations of the City or County, or the Principles for Guiding Development.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City, County and Department do mutually agree as follows:
1. Allocations. Twenty-four (24) residential ROGO allocation awards per year
shall be allocated to the City during the term of the Agreement for distribution in accordance
with the permit allocation system in the City Comprehensive Plan and Land Development
Regulations. These allocations come from the existing allocations of the Middle Keys sub-
area. Nineteen (19) of the yearly allocated residential ROGO allocation awards are for market
rate, and five (5) are for affordable housing. The County agrees with and has no objection
with this allocation. Furthermore, the County specifically acknowledges and recognizes that
based upon this Agreement, the total number of new residential ROGO allocation awards
allocated per year from the County's Middle Keys sub-area (26 market rate and 7 affordable)
will decrease by twenty-four (24) (19 market rate and 5 affordable) during the term of this
Agreement.
2. Authority to Issue. The City is authorized to make twenty-four (24) residential
ROGO allocation awards per year during the term of this Agreement, commencing with the
July - October 1999 through November - January 2000 allocation quarters for ROGO year
eight (8), and every quarter thereafter in accordance with the permit allocation system in the
City Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations. The Department specifically
3
acknowledges and recognizes that the City held its first Planning Commission meeting March
2, 2000, for the purpose of making available residential ROGO allocation awards for the first
two quarters of ROGO year eight (8). As a result, the number of allocations available for
award by the City in the remainder of ROGO year eight (8) is nine (9) market rate and two (2)
affordable housing. The City will be the local government agency, which approves and
accepts any lot dedications or deed restrictions associated with the City's ROGO allocation
process.
3.
Department of Health MOU.
The City specifically acknowledges and
recognizes that a ROGO allocation award does not authorize construction, and that subsequent
to receipt of a finalized ROGO allocation award, the applicant must receive a building permit
before construction (said building permit must be approved by the DCA pursuant to Chapter
9J-l, F.A.C) may occur. The City also acknowledges and recognizes that a ROGO allocation
award cannot be made or building permit cannot be issued without a nutrient credit as required
by Policy 101.2.13 of the City Comprehensive Plan, and that all building permits must
otherwise comply with the City Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Regulations.
The City acknowledges and recognizes that the residential ROGO allocation awards
distributed by this Agreement cannot be awarded until the City enters into a Memorandum of
Understanding with the State Department of Health, the State Department of Environmental
Protection, and DCA, which satisfies the requirements of Policy 101.2.13 of the City
Comprehensive Plan (as described in Task E of Year One of the Work Program).
