Exhibit "B" to this agreement contains stipulated actions and amendments to the ordinance which the parties agree are needed to recognize the City's interests in its extra-territorial water and sewer service area and to avoid costly lengthy and unnecessary litigation arising out of the adoption of the ordinance. This agreement constitutes a stipulation that if the stipulated actions are accomplished, the plan as amended will be in compliance, the ordinance as amended will recognize the City's interests and the City will not challenge the ordinance on grounds that it intrudes upon the City's extr-territorial water and sewer service area as defined in Section 18-20 of the City Code. 14.

Adoption or Approval of Stipulated Plan Amendments by the County.

This may be done at a single adoption hearing pursuant to section 163.3184(16)(d). Within 10 working days after adoption of the plan amendment, the County shall transmit 10 copies of the amendment to the Department as provided in Rule 9J-11.011, Florida Administrative Code. The County shall also submit copies to the City, the Central Florida Regional Planning Council and to any other unit of local or state government that has filed a written request with the County for a copy of the plan amendment. The amendment shall be transmitted to the Department along with a letter which describes the stipulated action adopted for each part of the plan and support documents amended, including references 7226-4590 City's 6/16/93 Proposal 6 1 to specific portions and pages. 16. Acknowledgement. All parties to this agreement acknowledge that neither the provision requiring the Department's participation nor the "based upon" provision in Section 163.3184(8), Florida Statutes, apply to the stipulated plan or ordinance amendments. 17. Review of Stipulated Plan Amendments and Notice of Intent. Within 45 days after receipt of the adopted stipulated plan amendments and support documents, the Department shall issue a notice of intent pursuant to Section 163.3184, Florida Statutes, for the adopted plan amendments in accordance with this agreement. 18. In Compliance. If, after consultation with the City, the Department determines that the adopted stipulated plan amendments are consistent with and substantially similar in concept and intent to this agreement, the Department shall issue a notice of intent addressing the plan amendment as being in compliance and in satisfaction of the plan amendment portion of this agreement. The Department shall file this notice with DOAH and shall move to have DOAH relinquish jurisdiction of this case to the Department. In the event that the City believes that the plan amendments are not consistent with or substantially similar in concept and intent to the agreed upon amendments to the plan as provided in Exhibit "A", the City reserves the right to oppose any motion to relinquish jurisdiction and further reserves the right to request that the final hearing be rescheduled. In the event that DOAH relinquishes jurisdiction of the case, the Department shall issue a final order finding the plan amendment in compliance. 19. Not in Compliance. If the plan amendments are not adopted, or if they are not consistent with or substantially similar in concept and intent to the agreed upon amendments to the plan as provided in Exhibit "A", the Department reserves the right to issue a notice of intent to find the plan amendments not in compliance. In such an event, 7226-4590 City's 6/16/93 Proposal 7 the Department shall forward the notice to DOAH for a hearing as provided in Subsection 163.3184(10), Florida Statutes. 20. Effect of Plan Amendment. Adoption of any stipulated amendment to the plan shall not be counted toward the frequency restrictions imposed upon plan amendments pursuant to Section 163.3187(1), Florida Statutes. 7226-4590 City's 6/16/93 Proposal 8 , 21. Adoption and Approval of Stipulated Ordinance Amendments. On or before July 22, 1993, the County shall consider adoption of the amendments to the ordinance. If the ordinance amendments are not adopted, or if the City believes that they are not consistent with or substantially similar in concept and intent to the agreed upon amendments to the ordinance as provided in Exhibit "B", and therefore do not satisfy this agreement, the City may exercise any judicial or administrative remedies it may have to challenge the ordinance. In the event that the County does not adopt the amendments to the ordinance on or before July 22, 1993, or adopts ordinance amendments on or before July 22, 1993 which the City believes are not consistent with or substantially similar in concept and intent to the agreed upon amendments provided for in this agreement, the County hereby stipulates and agrees that the applicable period under Article XII, Section 13.07.00 of Okeechobee County's Land Development Code within which the City may challenge Ordinance No. 93-05, shall be extended until August 22, 1993 as to any City challenge to the ordinance. 22. Further Challenges; Dismissal of Petition. In the event that any further Section 163.3184(9) challenges to the plan amendments are initiated, and upon certification by the Department, concurred in by the City, that such challenges to the stipulated plan amendments have been finally resolved, and upon the City further determining that the amendments to the ordinance have been adopted and satisfy this agreement, the City shall file a voluntary dismissal of their petition in Case No. 92-4909GM with DOAH. In the event that any person challenges the stipulated plan or ordinance amendments, and the Department or the County agree to further changes in the agreed upon amendments or to enter into a stipulated settlement agreement with said challengers, the City reserves the right to participate in said challenge and settlement proceedings, and the Department and 7226-4590 City's 6/16/93 Proposal 9 the County agree to provide the City with written notice of any intent to enter into any stipulated settlement agreement at least 20 days prior to such action by the Department or the County. The Department and the County further agree to incorporate this stipulated settlement agreement by reference into any subsequent settlement agreement which they may enter concerning subsequent challenges to the stipulated amendments to the plan or ordinance. The City further specifically reserves its right to amend its petition in Case No. 92-4909GM or to exercise any other judicial or administrative remedy challenging the plan or ordinance in the event that any existing party or other person challenges the agreed upon language in Exhibits "A" and "B" or that the Department or County enter into any subsequent settlement agreements or make any changes in the agreed upon amendments to the plan or ordinance, which the City believes would effectively nullify the agreed upon amendments to the plan or ordinance or this settlement agreement. 23. Waiver of Strict Construction . Should any provision of this Agreement be subject to judicial interpretation, it is agreed that the court interpreting or considering such provision will not apply the presumption or rule of construction that the terms of this Agreement be more strictly construed against the party which itself or through its counsel or other agent prepared the same, as all parties hereto have participated in the preparation of the final form of this Agreement through review by their respective counsel and the negotiation of changes in language in any provision deemed unsuitable or inadequate as initially written, and, therefore, the application of such presumption or rule of construction would be inappropriate and contrary to the intent of the parties. 24. Captions and Section headings. Captions and Section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and in no way define, describe, extend, or limit the scope or intent if this Agreement, nor the intent of any provision thereof. 7226-4590 City's 6/16/93 Proposal 10 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Petitioner, the Respondent and the Intervenor have caused this agreement to be executed by their undersigned officers or representatives as duly authorized.
