by Commissioner Puto and seconded by Commissioner Freeman to

granting Development of Regional Impact and Final

RESOLUTION NO. 365-1986
See Res. Book No. 55 which is incorporated herein by
reference.
During discussion, motion was made by Commissioner
Stormont and seconded by Commissioner Lytton to amend Page 7
of the Conclusions of Law, that Item 9 be replaced with the
wording "to effect the equivalent RU-7 zoning granted by the
Monroe County Zoning Board on December 5th, 1985 and
September 24th, 1986. The Monroe County Board of County
Commissioners will by this Resolution correct as errors and
omissions such SC and SR Land Use Map Districts so as to
conform to the context of this DRI." During discussion,
Mr. Halpern requested that the amendment reflect the confor-
mance of the Map to the Destination Resort zoning. After
further discussion, the motion to amend was adopted and the
County Attorney was directed to include it in this form in
the Resolution.
Motion was made by Commissioner Stormont and
seconded by Commissioner Freeman to amend Page 2 of the
General and Special Conditions, the third line of 1.3A, by
inserting a comma after "development" and then wording
which would then reflect "significant physical development,
consistent with the phasing schedule, has not commenced
within two years." Mr. Halpern addressed the Board and
objected to the amendment, indicating that the Developers
might not be able to comply with that requirement.
Commissioner Lytton questioned Mr. Pattison concerning his
interpretation of the flexibility of the phasing plan. Roll
call vote was taken with the following results:
Commissioner Freeman

Motion was made by Commissioner Stormont and
seconded by Commissioner Lytton to amend Page 9, the fifth
line from the top of the page, wording to the effect that
"so long as said fees are also applicable to all other simi-
lar types (hotels-motels) of development within Monroe
County." Motion carried unanimously.
Motion was made by Mayor Hernandez and seconded by
Commissioner Puto to strike that portion of Section 8.1 as
follows: "Upon completion of the construction of the deve-
lopment authorized by the Section 380.68-FS Preliminary
Development Agreement dated May 15, 1986," and to capitalize
the letter "T" in the word "the" which immediately follows.
Motion carried unanimously.
Motion was made by Commissioner Puto and seconded
by Commissioner Freeman to amend the original motion to
adopt so as to include all of the subsequent amendments.
Roll call vote on the original motion to adopt as amended
was unanimous.

was present from either the Department of Community Affairs

There being no further business, the meeting was
