V. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM A CONTINUED
City Planning Consultant Mr. Ben Smith of LaRue Planning and Management Services
-----_...�_�...�..
reviewed the Planning Staff Report. The subject property is vacant though the adjacent
parcels to the West are also owned by the applicant and developed with a medical office
and parking lot. Future land use Policy 2.1(a) allows a maximum standard density in the
Single-Family Residential Future Land Use (FLU) Category of four units per acre or five
if the units qualify as affordable housing. With the affordable housing bonus, maximum
development potential for 0.405 acres would be two single-family dwellings. However,
because the parcel is only 117.5 feet wide, which is not wide enough to create two lots
that meet the minimum lot width, only one single family dwelling unit could be developed.
Additionally, in order to develop a single-family dwelling unit at this property, a zoning
map amendment would be required, as single-family dwelling units are not permitted in
the Heavy Commercial Zoning. The Applicant has stated there are no plans to develop
this parcel at this time, and that the main purpose of this request is to make the FLU
designation consistent with the zoning. However, if this map change is approved, the
property may be development according to standards of the Comprehensive Plan and
the Land Development Regulations. While the Commercial Future Land Use category
allows for a maximum FAR of 3.0, the City's most intense commercial zoning district
(CHV) only allows a maximum building coverage of 50% and a maximum building height
of 45 feet (without a special use exception). These limitations allow for a potential three-
story structure, a maximum FAR of 1.5 and a maximum floor area of approximately
26,460 square feet on this 0.405-acre parcel. However, given the parking requirements
for most commercial uses and the maximum impervious surface ratio allowed in the
Heavy Commercial of 85%, it would be difficult to provide sufficient parking for 26,460
square feet of commercial use on this parcel. Additionally, given the character of
Okeechobee, it would be unusual to exceed two stories. A two-story structure with 50%
building coverage on 0.405 acres would have a floor area of approximately 17,640
square feet.
2. Mr. Jeff Sumner, Agent on behalf of the Property Owner, Suraiya Husain Trustee of
the Suraiya Husain Revocable Trust Agreement, was available for questions from the
Board. ��a�:�

5. Planning Staff Findings are as follows: Policy 2.2 of the FLU Element recommends that
the City protect the use and value of private property from adverse impacts of
incompatible land uses, activities and hazards. Objective 12 states that the City of
Okeechobee shall encourage compatibility with adjacent uses, and curtailment of uses
inconsistent with the character and land uses of surrounding areas and shall discourage
urban sprawl. The subject parcel is approximately 250 feet from the US-441 right-of-way
and while much of the surrounding property is vacant, there is an adjacent medical office
and other healthcare facilities in close proximity. There are no single-family homes in
the immediate area. Between the Comprehensive Plan (Future Land Use Map) the Land
Development Regulations (Zoning Map), the Comprehensive Plan is the ruling
document; and it is the typical zoning practice to make the zoning conform to the future
land use map. However, there are many inconsistencies between the City's future land
use map and zoning map. In some cases, the future land use designation of a particular
property is a better fit for the existing land use and the pattern of land use in the area.
In other cases, the zoning designation is a better fit. On this particular parcel the zoning
designation of Heavy Commercial is a better fit for the pattern of land use than the future
land use designation of single family residential.
P. Burnette Handwritten Minutes, August 19, 2021, Page 2 of 5
V. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM A CONTINUED
The Applicant submitted a traffic analysis which indicates that the Institute of
Transportation Engineers estimates a single-family dwelling unit to generate 9.44
vehicle trips per day and 26,300 square feet of inedical office to generate 922 vehicle
trips per day. The potential increase of 913 daily trips is significant, though unlikely, as
a 26,300 square foot facility is not a likely development at this location. Additionally, the
applicant correctly points out that the proximity to US-441 would ease the burden on the
local road network. Regarding adequacy of public facilities, the Applicant's submission
includes letters from the Okeechobee Utility Authority and Waste Management
indicating that there is adequate excess capacity to accommodate the demand for
potable water, wastewater treatment and solid waste disposal that would be associated
with a proposed industrial use. Though, at this time, there is no potable water distribution
main or wastewater service line near the subject property; and all facility improvements
required for connection must be at the owner's expense. The US Fish & Wildlife Service
Wetland Inventory Map does not depict any wetlands or critical habitat on this parcel.
Based on the foregoing analysis, he finds the requested Commercial FLU designation
for the subject property to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, reasonably
compatible with adjacent uses, and consistent with the urbanizing pattern of the area
and recommends approval of the Applicant's request.

Motion Carried/Denied.
B. Comprehensive Plan Amendment No. 21-002-CPA, which proposes to adopt a Property
Rights Element into the City's Comprehensive Plan as required by House Bill 59 - City
Planning Consultant (Exhibit 2).
1. City Planning Consultant Smith reviewed the Planning Staff Report. On June 29, 20211
�, the Governor signed House Bill (HB) 59 into law. One of the requirements of HB 59 is
����1�.` ��_, that every local government in the State of Florida must adopt a Property Rights Element
��� �����,�"��`�.... into their Comprehensive Plan. The legislation provides a recommended "statement of
� rights" for inclusion in the Element. Though local governments are not required to adopt
the exact language of the recommended statement of rights, the language that is
adopted may not be in conflict with the provided statements.
Another requirement of HB 59 is that local governments must adopt the Property Rights
Elementprior to adoption of any other comprehensive plan amendments that have been
initiated after July 1, 2021. As discussed at the July 15, 2021, Planning Board meeting,
it is staff's contention that the City's proposed commercial corridor plan amendment was
initiated prior to July 1, 2021 and should be allowed to be submitted to the Florida
Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) (state land planning agency) prior to the
adoption of the Property Rights Element.
City staff corresponded with DEO staff and provided documentation to verify that
advertised public workshops for the proposed commercial corridor plan amendment
were held in April and May and that the City paid for public hearing advertisement of
that amendment in June prior to the adoption of the legislation. Nevertheless, DEO staff
has stated that they are not considering the amendment to be initiated prior to July 1 st
because a public hearing was not held in June.
At the July public hearing for the proposed commercial corridor amendment, the
Planning Board voted to continue the hearing of that amendment to the September
meeting and directed staff to bring the Property Rights Element for a public hearing as
soon as possible so that it could be adopted prior to, or concurrently with the adoption
of the Commercial Corridor Amendment. Attached is a proposed Ordinance for adoption
of the Property Rights Element.
P. Burnette Handwritten Minutes, August 19, 2021, Page 3 of 5
V. PUBLIC HEARING ITEM B CONTINUED
The language that is included in the proposed policies is the recommended statement
of rights included in the legislation. The proposed goal includes an excerpt of existing
language from Florida Statute Section 163.3161(10), which is also referenced in HB 59,
along with Florida Statute Section 187.101(3). The full text of those statute sections is
provided below. The full, adopted text of HB 59 is also being provided.
Should the Planning Board, acting as City's Local Planning Agency, agree the text
changes in this proposed amendment are desirable and consistent with the City's
Comprehensive Plan, then he requests they recommend that the City Council transmit
this amendment to DEO. The Board may also consider adopting alternative language
for the Property Rights Element, as long as it does not conflict with the statement of
rights provided in the statute.
Should the City Council also agree that this proposed amendment is desirable and
consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, then they may vote to transmit to DEO.
Once the state and various agencies (FDOT, FDEP, SFWMD, etc.) have had 30 days
to review the amendment, if there are no objections, then the City Council may adopt
the amendment at a final public hearing.
Florida Statute Section 163.3161(10): It is the intent of the Legislature that all
governmental entities in this state recognize, and respect judicially acknowledged or
constitutionally protected private property rights. It is the intent of the Legislature that all
rules, ordinances, regulations, comprehensive plans and amendments thereto, and
programs adopted under the authority of this act must be developed, promulgated,
implemented, and applied with sensitivity for private property rights and not be unduly
restrictive, and property owners must be free from actions by others which would harm
their property or which would constitute an inordinate burden on property rights as those
terms are defined in s. 70.001(3)(e) and (f). Full and just compensation or other
appropriate relief must be provided to any property owner for a governmental action that
is determined to be an invalid exercise of the police power which constitutes a taking,
as provided by law. Any such relief must ultimately be determined in a judicial action.
Florida Statute Section 187.101(3): The goals and policies contained in the State
Comprehensive Plan shall be reasonably applied where they are economically and
environmentally feasible, not contrary to the public interest, and consistent with the
protection of private property rights. The plan shall be construed and applied as a whole,
and no specific goal or policy in the plan shall be construed or applied in isolation from
the other goals and policies in the plan. , ,�, �, , �, / � � _ _,

Attn: Patty Burnette, General Services Coordinator
55 SE 3'd Avenue
Okeechobee, FL 34974
RE: Request for Small Scale Amendment
Lots 19 - 20, Block 2, City of Okeechobee
Ms. Burnette:
This letter report is intended to supplement the above-referenced application, specifically Part IV —
Amendment Support Documentation. The subject property is part of an existing developed parcel (Lots
15 — 20, Block 2) owned by the applicant. Lots 15 - 18 currently have a FLU designation of Commercial and
is currently developed with a medical office building and parking lot, while the lots subject to this
application (Lots 19 - 20) have a FLU Designation of Single-Family Residential, and are currently vacant.
Further, current zoning for all six lots is Heavy Commercial. Support documentation for the application is
described below and/or attached hereto. I have attempted to use lettering/numbering consistent with
that in the application form.
A. GENERAL INFORMATION AND MAPS
3
4.
6.
Wording of Proposed text changes. N/A — No text changes are proposed.
A map showing the boundaries of the subject property, surrounding street network, and
Future Land Use designations of surrounding properties. Map A-2 — Future Land Use
Designations is attached.
A map showing existing land uses (not designations) of the subject property and
surrounding properties. Map A-3 — Existing Land Use (ActualJ is attached.
Written descriptions of the existing land uses and how the proposed Future Land Use
designation is consistent with current uses and current Future Land Use designations. The
subject property is within the urban developed area of the City Okeechobee. The
existing use (commercial) and zoning (Heavy Commercial) are consistent with the
requested land use change. Further, the requested change is consistent with the
development pattern in the area, surrounded by either developed commercial uses or
vacant tracts likely to be developed as commercial uses.
Map showing existing zoning of the subject property and surrounding properties. Map A-5
— Existing Zoning Designations is attached.
Certified property boundary survey; date of survey; surveyor's name, address and phone
number; and legal description(s) for the property subject to the requested change. A
certified boundary survey of the subject parcel (Lots 19 - 20, Block 2) has been
submitted to the City under separate cover. A small-scale copy of the survey is included
for distribution as ExhibitA-6.
7. A copy of the deed(s) for the property subject to the requested change. ExhibitA-7—
Deed is attached.
8. An aerial map showing the subject property and surrounding properties. Map A-8 —Aerial
is attached.
If applicant is not the owner, a notarized letter from the owner of the property authorizing
the applicant to represent the owner. N/A — The owner is the applicant.
B. PUBLIC FACILITIES IMPACTS
1. Traffic Analysis — Utilizing the ITE Trip Generation Manual (10`h Edition) to estimate traffic
volumes associated with the proposed Land Use Designation (relative to the existing Land
Use Designation), and utilizing the maximum development units for each as shown in Part
III.B of the application, the estimated increase in expected traffic volumes is as follows:
Description / ITE Units Expected Calculated Daily PM Peak AM Peak
Code Units Trips Trips Trips
Single Family Homes DU 1 9.44 0.99 0.74
(210)
Medical Office (720) 1000 sf 26.3 922 91 97
Increase 913 90 96
An estimated increase of 90 PM peak trips and 96 AM peak trips should be considered
insignificant given the proximity to a State Highway (US 441), and is not expected to
burden existing LOS of the surrounding road network.
Potable Water and Sanitary Sewer / Open Space
a. Utilizing the LOS values in the City's Comprehensive Plan of 114 gallons per person
per day (gppd) for water and 130 gppd for wastewater and 2.7 persons per DU, the
potential water and sewer flows for the existin� FLU category are:
1 DU x 2.7 people/DU x 114 gppd = 308 gallons per day (water)
1 DU x 2.7 people/DU x 130 gppd = 351 gallons per day (wastewater)
The Comprehensive Plan does not provide water or wastewater generation rates for
commercial uses (understandably, as rates could vary greatly between various
commercial uses). To estimate water and wastewater flows associated with the
proposed FLU category, the City's Small-Scale Comprehensive Plan application
utilizes a rate of 0.15 gallons per day for non-residential uses:
26,267 sq. ft. x 0.15 gpd / 100 sq. ft. = 3,940 (water and wastewater)
Increased water demand = 3,632 gallons per day
Increased sewer demand = 3,589 gallons per day
b. Recreation / Open Space — Not applicable to non-residential uses.
Correspondence with the appropriate agencies substantiating the adequacy of existing
facilities to support the proposed change are included as Appendix B-3. At this point, we
have requested capacity confirmation letters from Okeechobee Utility Authority (water
2 � , _
and wastewater) and Okeechobee Landfill, Inc. (solid waste). As this is a non-residential
use, capacity confirmation from the School Board is not applicable. We have
conservatively requested capacity confirmation based on the maximum potential
additional square footage as described in the preceding sections.
C. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
1. Wetlands and aquifer recharge areas. N/A — the subject parent tract is already developed
for the proposed use, and is within a developed urban area of the City. As confirmed by
review of the National Wetland Inventory mapping system
(https://www.fws.gov/wetlands/Data/Mapper html), there are no on-site wetlands or
recharge areas.
2. Soils posing severe limitation to development. N/A—the subject parent tract is already
developed for the proposed use. Additional development on the subject tract can be
accomplished with normal site preparation and soil treatment. A soils map is attached
as Exhibit G2.
3. Unique habitat. N/A — there is no unique habitat on this cleared lot.
4. Endangered species of wildlife and plants. N/A—there are no known endangered species
present.
5. Floodprone areas. N/A — the subject property is within the developed City of
Okeechobee, and has a flood zone designation of X(Area of Minimal Flood Risk / 0.2
Percent Chance Annual Flood Hazard.

200keechobee%2C%20Florida#searchresultsanchor
D. INTERNAL CONSISTENCY WITH THE CITY OF OKEECHOBEE COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
1. Effect on the established City of Okeechobee population projections. The proposed FLUM
amendment changing the existing FLUM designation from Single-Family Residential to
Commercial will have no affect on the established City of Okeechobee population
projections. There will be no increase in residential population.
2. Goals and Objectives of the City's Comprehensive Plan that are affected by the proposed
amendment. See attached PolicyAnalysis.
3. Effects on the County's Comprehensive Plan as it relates to adjacent unincorporated
areas. The proposed FLUM amendment is 0.402 acres in size and will have no effect on
the County's Comprehensive Plan as it relates to adjacent unincorporated areas.
4. State Policy Plan and Regional Policy Plan goals and policies relevant to this plan
amendment. The proposed FLUM amendment is 0.402 acres in size and is not relevant to
the State Policy Plan and Regional Policy Plan goals and policies.
E. JUSTIFICATION OF PROPOSED AMENDMENT
There is an existing commercial/office development abutting the property to the west; vacant
commercial zoned property to the east; vacant commercial property to the north; and vacant
residential property to the south. There is no existing residential use on NE 13t'' Street east of N
Parrott Avenue.
As stated above, the existing FLUM designation for the subject property is Single-Family
Residential. Abutting property FLUM designation on the west, north and east sides of the
3�:� .
property is Commercial. The south side of the property is NE 13th Street. The FLUM designation
on the south side of NE13th Street across from the subject property is Single-Family Residential.
The proposed request for a Future Land Use Map Amendment is from Single-Family Residential
to Commercial. The existing FLUM designation for the subject property, Single-Family
Residential, is inconsistent with the abutting FLUM designation, Commercial, on three sides of
the subject property. In addition, amending the FLUM designation to Commercial will render the
subject property consistent with the underlying zoning designation, Heavy Commercial.
At present, the property cannot be developed for commercial uses without this FLUM
amendment.
We have attempted to prepare a complete application for the proposed Small Scale Amendment.
However, if you have any questions or require any additional information at this time, please do not
hesitate to contact me at your convenience. Thank you in advance for your assistance in this matter.
Sincerely,
Sumner Engineering & Consulting, Inc.

Relevant Comprehensive Plan Goals and Policies Analysis
Future Land Use Element
Objective 2:The City of Okeechobee shall continue to ensure that all new development is consistent
with the Future Land Use Element.
The existing FLUM designation for the subject property is Single-Family Residential.
Abutting property FLUM designation on the west, north and east sides of the property is
Commercial. The south side of the property is NE 13th Street. The FLUM designation on
the south side of NE13th Street across from the subject property is Single-Family
Residential. The proposed request for a Future Land Use Map Amendment is from
Single-Family Residential to Commercial. The existing FLUM designation for the subject
property, Single-Family Residential, is inconsistent with the abutting FLUM designation,
Commercial, on three sides of the subject property. In addition, amending the FLUM
designation to Commercial will render the subject property consistent with the
underlying zoning designation, Heavy Commercial. At present, the property cannot be
developed for commercial uses without this FLUM amendment.
Policy 2.1.dJ
Commercial. Permitred uses include the full range of offices, retail, persona/ and business services,
automotive, wholesale, warehousing, related commercia/ activities, and accessory uses customary to
permissible uses. Other uses related to and consistent with commercia/ development such as houses
of worship, public facilities, public utilities, communications facilities, hospitals, group hames, adult
family care homes, assisted living facilities, and limited residential use associated with a commercial
building, may be permissible under certain circumstances.
1. Commercia/ development shall not exceed a floor area ratio of 3.00 and the maximum impervious
surface for development within this category shall not exceed 85 percent of the site.
2. Zoning districts considered appropriate within this future land use category include Commercial
Professional Office (CPOJ, Light Commercial (CLT), Heavy Commercial (CHVJ, and Centra/ Business

B. Current Devefoprvien# Potential as Single-Family Residential
The property is currently designated as single family residential on the City's Future Land
Use Map and Heavy Commercial on the City's zoning map. Future land use Policy 2.1(a)
allows a maximum standard density in the Single-Family Residential Future Land Use
Category of four units per acre or five if the units qualify as affordable housing. With the
affordable housing bonus, maximum development potential for 0.405 acres would be two
single-family dwellings. However, because the parcel is only 117.5 feet wide, which is not
wide enough to create two lots that meet the minimum lot width, only one single family
dwelling unit could be developed. Additionally, in order to develop a single family dwelling
unit at this property, a zoning map amendment would be required, as single family dwelling
units are not permitted in the Heavy Commercial Zoning District.
C. Future Development Potential as Commercial
The Applicant has stated that there are no plans to develop this parcel at this time, and that
the main purpose of this request is to make the future land use designation consistent with
the zoning. However, if this map change is approved, the property may be developed
according to standards of the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code.
While the Commercial Future Land Use category allows for a maximum FAR of 3.0, the
City's most intense commercial zoning district (CHV) only allows a maximum building
coverage of 50% and a maximum building height of 45 feet (without a special use
exception). These limitations allow for a potential three story structure, a maximum FAR of
1.5 and a maximum floor area of approximately 26,460 square feet on this 0.405 acre parcel.
However, given the parking requirements for most commercial uses and the maximum
impervious surface ratio allowed in the Heavy Commercial of 85%, it would be difficult to
provide sufficient parking for 26,460 square feet of commercial use on this parcel.
Additionally, given the character of Okeechobee, it would be unusual to exceed two stories.
A two-story structure with 50% building coverage on 0.405 acres would have a floor area of
approximately 17,640 square feet.

D. Consistency and Compatibility with Comprehensive Plan and Adjacent Uses.
Policy 2.2 of the Future Land Use Element recommends that the City protect the use and
value of private property from adverse impacts of incompatible land uses, activities and
hazards.
Objective 12 states that the City of Okeechobee shall encourage compatibility with adjacent
uses, and curtailment of uses inconsistent with the character and land uses of surrounding
areas and shall discourage urban sprawl.
The subject parcel is approximately 250 feet from the US-441 right-of-way and while much
of the surrounding property is vacant, there is an adjacent medical office and other
healthcare facilities in close proximity. There are no single family homes in the immediate
area.
Between the Comprehensive Plan (Future Land Use Map) the Land Development Code
(Zoning Map), the Comprehensive Plan is the ruling document; and it is the typical zoning
practice to make the zoning conform to the future land use map. However, there are many
inconsistencies between the City's future land use map and zoning map. In some cases,
the f�ature land �ase designation of a partic+�lar property is a better fit for the existing land use
and the pattern of land use in the area. In other cases, the zoning designation is a better fit.
On this particular parcel the zoning designation of Heavy Commercial is a better fifi for the
pattern of land use than the future land use designation of single family residential.
E. Adequacy of Public Facilities
Traffic Impacts
Based on the change in the maximum development potential of this parcel if this request is
approved, the applicant submitted a traffic analysis which indicates that the Institute of
Transportation Engineers estimates a single family dwelling unit to generate 9.44 vehicle
trips per day and 26,300 square feet of inedical office to generate 922 vehicle trips per day.
The potential increase of 913 daily trips is significant, though unlikely, as a 26,300 square
foot facility is not a likely development at this location. Additionally, the applicant correctly
points out that the proximity to US-441 would ease the burden on the local road network.
Demand for Potable Water and Sewer Treatment
The applicant has provided an analysis on the potential change in demand for potable water
and sewer services if these map changes are approved. That analysis indicates an increase
potential of 3,632 gallons of potable water demand and 3,589 gallons of sewer demand per
day. We agree with this analysis.
The Applicant submitted letters from the Okeechobee Utility Authority and indicating that
there is adequate excess capacity in the facilities to accommodate the demand for potable
water and wastewater treatment. Though, at this time, there is no potable water distribution
main or wastewater service line near the subject property; and all facility improvements
required for connection must be at the owner's expense.

Small Scale Comprehensive Plan Amendment Petition No. 21-005-SSA
Demand for Solid Waste Disposal
Waste Management has previously confiirmed a considerable level ofi excess capacity
available to serve the solid waste disposal needs of other developments in the City. IYs
reasonable that the volume of solid waste generated by the proposed improvements can
also be accommodated within the capacity of the County's Solid Waste Facility.
F. EnvironmentaE Impacts
The US Fish & Wildlife Service Wetland Inventory Map does not depict any wetlands on this
parcel.
No critical habitat is identified on this parcel by the USFWS mapping.
. .. .
Based on the foregoing analysis, we find the requested Commercial future land use designation
for the subject property to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, reasonably
compatible with adjacent uses, and consistent with the urbanizing pattern of the area. Therefore,
we recommend approval of the Applicant's request to amend the Future Land Use Map of the
City's Comprehensive Plan to change the designation of this property from Single Family
Residential to Commercial.

Property Rights Element Comprehensive Plan Amendment
On June 29th, 2021, the Governor signed House Bill 59 into law. One of the requirements of HB 59
is that every local government in the state of Florida must adopt a Property Rights Element into
their Comprehensive Plan. The legislation provides a recommended "statement of rights" for
inclusion in the Element. Though local governments are not required to adopt the exact language
of the recommended statement of rights, the language that is adopted may not be in conflict with
the provided statements.
Another requirement of HB 59 is that local governments must adopt the Property Rights Element
prior to adoption of any other comprehensive plan amendments that have been initiated after July
1, 2021. As discussed at the July 15, 2021 Planning Board meeting, it is staff's contention that the
City's proposed commercial corridor plan amendment was initiated prior to July 1, 2021 and should
be allowed to be submitted to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO) (state land
planning agency) prior to the adoption of the Property Rights Element.
City staff corresponded with DEO staff and provided documentation to verify that advertised public
workshops for the proposed commercial corridor plan amendment were held in April and May and
that the City paid for public hearing advertisement of that amendment in June prior to the adoption
of the legislation. Nevertheless, DEO staff has stated that they are not considering the amendment
to be initiated prior to July 1St because a public hearing was not held in June.
At the July public hearing for the proposed commercial corridor amendment, the Planning Board
voted to continue the hearing of that amendment to the September meeting and directed staff to
bring the Property Rights Element for a public hearing as soon as possible so that it could be
adopted prior to, or concurrently with the adoption of the Commercial Corridor Amendment.
Attached is a proposed Ordinance for adoption of the Property Rights Element. The language that
is included in the proposed policies is the recommended statement of rights included in the
legislation. The proposed Goal includes an excerpt of existing language from Florida Statute
Section 163.3161(10), which is also referenced in HB 59, along with Florida Statute Section
187.101(3). The full text of those statute sections is provided below. The full, adopted text of HB
59 is also attached.
If the Planning Board, acting as City's Local Planning Agency, agrees that the text changes in this
proposed amendment are desirable and consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan, we request
that they recommend that the City Council transmit this amendment to DEO. The Board may also
consider adopting alternative language for the Property Rights Element, as long as it does not
conflict with the statement of rights provided in the statute.
If the City Council also agrees that this proposed amendment is desirable and consistent with the
City's Comprehensive Plan, then they may vote to transmit to DEO. Once the state and various
agencies (FDOT, FDEP, SFWMD, etc.) have had 30 days to review the amendment, if there are
��rovicii��� F�annin6 anc� niana�enic:nt so�titions �or �aca� ���v�.rnments
1 �77 �ac�Cson,�treet, �juit�e 20L; �ort Myers. ��_ 3'J��1 ?'J �-��9�-�3�b www.�arue��annin�.com
no objections, then the City Council may adopt the amendment at a final public hearing.
Florida Statute Section 163.3161(10)
It is the intent of the Legislature that all governmental entities in this state recognize and respect
judicially acknowledged or constitutionally protected private property rights. It is the intent of the
Legislature that all rules, ordinances, regulations, comprehensive plans and amendments thereto,
and programs adopted under the authority of this act must be developed, promulgated,
implemented, and applied with sensitivity for private property rights and not be unduly restrictive,
and property owners must be free from actions by others which would harm their property or which
would constitute an inordinate burden on property rights as those terms are defined in s.
70.001(3)(e) and (f). Full and just compensation or other appropriate relief must be provided to any
property owner for a governmental action that is determined to be an invalid exercise of the police
power which constitutes a taking, as provided by law. Any such relief must ultimately be determined
in a judicial action.
Florida Statute Section 187.101(3)
The goals and policies contained in the State Comprehensive Plan shall be reasonably applied
where they are economically and environmentally feasible, not contrary to the public interest, and
consistent with the protection of private property rights. The plan shall be construed and applied as
a whole, and no specific goal or policy in the plan shall be construed or applied in isolation from the
other goals and policies in the plan.

in the jurisdiction in which the parcel is situated, except in a
conveyance transacted under paragraph (a), paragraph (c), or
paragraph (e). Notwithstanding any provision of this section to
the contrary, before any conveyance under this subsection may be
made, except a conveyance under paragraph (a) or paragraph (c),
the department shall first afford a ri ht of first refusal to
the previous property owner for the department's current
estimate of value of the property. The ri ht of first refusal
must be made in writin and sent to the revious owner via
certified mail or hand delivery, effective upon receipt. The
right of first refusal must provide the previous owner with a
minimum of 30 days to exercise the right in writin and must be
sent to the originator of the offer by certified mail or hand
delivery, effective upon dispatch. If the previous owner
exercises his or her right of first refusal, the previous owner
has a minimum of 90 days to close on the property. The right of
first refusal set forth in this subsection may not be rectuired
for the disposal of property acquired more than 10 years before
the date of disposition by the department.

(b) If the property is to be used for a public purpose,
the property may be conveyed without consideration to a
governmental entity.
(c) If the property was originally acquired specifically
to provide replacement housing for persons displaced by
transportation projects, the department may negotiate for the
sale of such property as replacement housing. As compensation,
the state shall receive at least its investment in such property
or the department's current estimate of value, whichever is
lower. It is expressly intended that this benefit be extended
only to persons actually displaced by the project. Dispositions
to any other person must be for at least the department's
current estimate of value.
(d) If the department determines that the property
requires significant costs to be incurred or that continued
ownership of the property exposes the department to significant
liability risks, the department may use the projected
maintenance costs over the next 10 years to offset the
property's value in establishing a value for disposal of the
property, even if that value is zero.
(e) If, at the discretion of the department, a sale to a
person other than an abutting property owner would be
inequitable, the property may be sold to the abutting owner for
