Scholl, District 3 Holly Merrill Raschein, District 5 Regular Meeting February 18, 2026 Agenda Item Number: F1 26-0389 BULK ITEM: Yes DEPARTMENT: County Land Acquisition and Land Management TIME APPROXIMATE: NA STAFF CONTACT: Beth Bergh AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval of Revised Amendment No. 30 to State Lands Management Lease No. 4549, Which Will Rescind and Replace Amendment No. 30 as Previously Approved by the Monroe County Board of County Commissioners Pursuant to Agenda Item No. F3 on the Board's January 28, 2026, Regular Public Meeting Agenda. ITEM BACKGROUND: In 2005, at Monroe County's request, the State of Florida ("State") expanded the Florida Forever land acquisition project to include most Tier 1 lands. As required by the State's boundary amendment process, Monroe County committed to serve as the land manager for those lands where no state or federal manager was available. In 2007, the County entered into a land management lease (Lease No. 4549) with the State for the initial group of parcels purchased by the State pursuant to the boundary amendment. Since 2007, the County has approved Amendment Nos. 1 - 31 to the Lease to include additional parcels purchased by the State. The proposed corrected amendment (Amendment No. 30) adds additional State-owned parcels to the existing management lease. The BOCC approved Amendment 30 at their January 28, 2026 meeting as part of agenda item F3. However, a revision to Amendment 30 is required to correct the included legal description of leased parcels. Funding for any potential land management activities (invasive exotic plant removal, trash cleanup, etc.) will come from State exotic plant removal funding and County permitting fees paid into the Environmental Land Management and Restoration Fund.
