RESOLUTION NO. 173 - 2002
A RESOLUTION BY THE MONROE COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
DIRECTING GROWTH MANAGEMENT TO
DEFER THE A WARD OF MODEST HOUSING
ROGO POINTS UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2002
AND TO DRAFT LANGUAGE WHICH WILL
REPEAL THE CRITERIA THAT AWARDS
POINTS FOR MODEST HOUSING AND
MODULAR CONSTRUCTION IN THE YEAR
2010 PLAN AND LAND DEVELOPMENT
REGULATIONS.
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners approved Resolution 033-2002 on
January 1 ih, 2002 directing Growth Management staff to defer the award of modest housing
ROGO points for 90 days and to immediately begin working with the Planning Commission to
review and prepare an amendment to the LDRs concerning modest housing ROGO points; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has held two public workshops, February 27,
2002, in Key Largo and March 13, 2002, in Marathon, and completed a review of the
regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has found that the modest housing and modular
construction criteria have inflated needed ROGO scores to receive an allocation, precluding
individuals who entered the system before the points were adopted and are no longer
competitive; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission has found that homes that have received
modest/modular points are being sold for a price higher than a moderate-income level family can
afford; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission unanimously voted on March 13, 2002 to
recommend that the moratorium of awarding modest/modular points be extended so that the
language may be repealed from both the Year 2010 Comprehensive Plan and the LDRs;
NOW THEREFORE; BE IT RESOLVED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA:
Section 1: Pursuant to the pending legislation doctrine set forth in Smith v. City of
Clearwater, 383 So. 2D 681 (Fla. 2nd DCA 1980), the Board of County Commissioners hereby
directs Growth Management staff to continue to defer the award of modest housing ROGO
points of building permit applications until December 31, 2002.
