Resolution 054-1985
Commissioner Edwin O. Swift, III
RESOLUTION NO. 054-1985
WHEREAS, be it known and understood that the Monroe County
Commission has every intention of constructing a sound and well
planned future for the Florida Keys and its people, and
WHEREAS, let it also be known that we expect the full and
continuing economic and moral support of the State of Florida to
fulfill the basis on which the Critical Concern was drafted; that
basis being that all the people of the State will share in the
responsibility and in the cost of the Critical Concern legis-
lation, and
WHEREAS, the rules for Guiding Development are, in their
present state, not fully flexible, logical or functional as a
planning guide, and
WHEREAS, the rules for Guiding Development may cause undue
economic and social hardship for residents and landowners in the
Florida Keys, and
WHEREAS, because of these rules the Monroe County Commission
and its consultants find it difficult to plan in the best inter-
est of the people of Monroe County, and
WHEREAS, the individual Monroe County Commissioners feel
strongly that they have been mandated by the people and duly
elected by the people of this County and therefore should be
allowed to plan in the best interests of the residents of Monroe
County, now, therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS OF
MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA, to respectfully request that the rules
for Guiding Development be reviewed and amended in order to
fulfill the purpose of those changes originally requested by our
consultants at the Cabinet meeting in July 1984 and further that
these amendments and any others deemed in the best interest of
the citizens of Monroe County; be it set forth in writing and
agreed upon by the Governor, the Cabinet of the State of Florida.
PASSED AND ADOPTED by the Board of County Commissioners of
Monroe County, Florida, at a regular meeting of said Board held
on the 8th day of February, A. D. 1985.
