recommendation
The City Commission adopt the proposed ordinance.
explanation
The proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Plan was transmitted to the State Department of Community Affairs for written comment. Any comments, recommendations or objections of the State Department of Community Affairs must be considered at the second public hearing. The City Commission may then adopt or adopt with changes the proposed amendment to the Comprehensive Plan, or determine not to adopt a plan amendment.
The State of Florida Department of Community Affairs issued a letter dated April 22, 1999, stating that this amendment need not be formally reviewed for consistency with Chapter 163, F.S. A copy of their letter is attached to this memorandum. Therefore, the City may now proceed with the final adoption of the ordinance. On first reading, this ordinance showed changes to the same Comprehensive Plan sections proposed by section 215CPA-98PB. Since that petition is being reviewed by the Department of Community Affairs, this ordinance no longer shows those amendments.
The Plan amendment will not become effective until the State Department of Community Affairs issues a final order determining the adopted amendment to be in compliance in accordance with the Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land Development Regulation Act, or until the Administration Commission (Governor and Cabinet) issues a final order determining the adopted amendment to be in compliance.
