FINAL ORDER
pursuant to SS 380.05(6), Fla, Stat" and S 380.0552(9), Fla. Stat, (2003), approving a land
development regulation adopted by a local government within the Florida Keys Area of Critical
State Concern as set forth below.
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The Florida Keys Area is a statutorily designated area of critical state concern, and
Monroe County is a local government within the Florida Keys Area.
2. On September 12,2003, the Department received for review Monroe County
Ordinance No, 034-2003 which was adopted by the Monroe County Board of County
Commissioners on August 20, 2003 ("Ord. 034-2003 "). The purpose of Ord. 034-2003 is to
delete Section 9.5-523 (Variance), create a new Section 9.5-523 (Administrative Variance),
create Section 9.5-524 (Variance granted by the Planning Commission) and creating Section 9.5-
282 (residential dwelling permits and bulk regulations). All of these sections relate to the
granting of variances for such parameters as front and side yard setbacks, landscaping and
similar criteria.
3, Ord. 034-2003 is consistent with the County's 2010 Comprehensive Plan.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
4. The Department is required to approve or reject land development regulations that are
enacted, amended or rescinded by any local government in the Florida Keys Area of Critical
State Concern, SS 380.05(6), Fla. Stat., and S 380.0552(9), Fla. Stat, (2003).
DCA Final Order No.: DCA03-0R-306
5. Monroe County is a local government within the Florida Keys Area of Critical State
Concern. ~ 380.0552, Fla, Stat, (2002) and Rule 28-29.002 (superseding Chapter 27F-8), Fla.
Admin. Code.
6. "Land development regulations" include local zoning, subdivision, building and other
regulations controlling the development of land. ~ 380.031 (8), Fla. Stat. (2003). The
regulations adopted by Ord. 034-2003 are land development regulations.
7. All land development regulations enacted, amended or rescinded within an area of
critical state concern must be consistent with the Principles for Guiding Development (the
"Principles") as set forth in ~ 380.0552(7), Fla. Stat, See Rathkamp v. Department of
Community Affairs, 21 F.A.L.R. 1902 (Dec. 4, 1998), aff'd, 740 So. 2d 1209 (Fla. 3d DCA
1999). The Principles are construed as a whole and no specific provision is construed or applied
in isolation from the other provisions.
8. Ord. 034-2003 promotes and furthers the following Principles:
(a) To strengthen local government capabilities for managing land
use and development so that local government is able to achieve
these objectives without the continuation of the area of critical
state concern designation.
(f) To enhance natural scenic resources, promote aesthetic benefits
of the natural environment, and ensure that development is
compatible with the unique historic character of the Florida Keys.
9. Ord. 034-2003 is consistent with the Principles for Guiding Development as a whole.
WHEREFORE, IT IS ORDERED that Ord. 034-2003 is found to be consistent with the
Principles for Guiding Development of the Florida Keys Area of Critical State Concern, and is
hereby APPROVED.
This Order becomes effective 21 days after publication in the Florida Administrative Weekly
unless a petition is filed as described below.
