Re: Revisions to Future Land Use Element and Land Use Policy
2 .2 of City of Okeechobee Comprehensive Plan
Dear John:
Thank you for your telephone call yesterday concerning the
above-referenced matter. My clients appreciate your continuing
interest in assuring us that recommended changes to the
comprehensive plan which we made to the City Council, and the
Council adopted, are incorporated in the revised plan.
I have completed my review of the draft revisions to the
Future Land Use Element and Land Use Policy 2 . 2 which the City
Council approved at it March 19 , 1991 public hearing to adopt the
comprehensive plan. These revisions were drafted and submitted to
me for review by Regional Planner Jeff Hopper. Enclosed is a copy
of revised policy 2 . 2 which Jeff provided to me by FAX today. The
revisions to the Future Land Use Element ( including the Data &
Analysis) and Policy 2 . 2 appear to be in order and reflect the
changes which the Council directed Regional Planning Council staff
to make in the plan.
Hopefully, the Department of Community Affairs will now find
the City of Okeechobee ' s plan "in compliance" so that the City and
its citizens can begin the task of implementing the plan by
adopting land development regulations (LDR' s) , including the
Environmental Site Review process mentioned in Policy 2 . 2 .
On behalf of my clients, I would appreciate it if you would
put me on the mailing list to receive notice of scheduled
workshops, meetings and copies of drafts of the Environmental Site
Review Process LDR.
