The Community Development Department - Planning Division requests the City Commission
hold a second reading of Ordinance 758 to consider adopting three (3) large scale comprehensive
plan amendments, LG-CP A-2-98, LG-CP A-3-98, LG-CP A-4-98, dealing with land conservation
and resource protection.
PURPOSE:
The plan amendment is intended to ensure: (1) the preservation of the City's vegetative and

cultural and archaeological resources; (2) coordinate with the resource protection plans of local,
state and federaljurisdiction in the development of the Town Center; and (3) participate in the

The provisions of 163.3184(15)(b) F.S. which state: "The local governing body shall hold at least
one advertised public hearing on the proposed comprehensive plan or plan amendment as

CONSIDERA TIONS:
. The City staff applied to the Florida Communities Trust Preservation 2000 Program
(P-2000) in 1998 for grant monies to acquire open space in the Town Center. The City
did not receive the funding due to scoring of responses in the application that did not
meet the threshold level of points.
. The staff would like to reapply in 2000 for these funds. To improve the chances that our
application will receive acceptance this time around, new policies are proposed that
address the P-2000 Program staff's concerns and suggestions.
.
The Florida Department of Community Affairs reviewed the large scale comprehensive
plan amendments LG-CP A-2-98, LG-CP A-3-98, and LG-CP A-4-98 and raised no
objection to the proposed amendment in their ORC Report issued April 30, 1999. DCA
recommended that the three policy statements can be strengthened by including in the
policy (in LG-CPA-3-98 and LG-CPA-4-98), more direction for the language to be
written into the LDRs to ensure protection of significant cultural and archaeological sites
from development or redevelopment, and ensure resource protection within the Town
Center.

. Staff finds that the last sentence of the proposed policy in LG-CP A-3-98 does in fact have
language that indicates "the City shall develop more restrictive language in the land
development regulations ensuring the protection of historically significant cultural and
archaeological sites from development or redevelopment.
. Staff agrees with DCA concerning its desire on more direction for the language to be written
into the LDRs to coordinate with the resource protection efforts of SJR WMD for Lake
Jessup, and that the City shall involve itself in the process for development of the SWIM
Plan (or similar plan) and expend efforts to further purposes and management practices of
such a plan.
. Due to Joshi & Associates proposed expansion of the Town Center, these plan amendments
and others were put on hold.

plan amendments in anticipation of reapplying for the P-2000 Program grant monies to be
used toward acquisition of open space in the proposed Town Center.

Staff Report
The City staff applied to the Florida Communities Trust Preservation 2000 Program (P-2000) for
grant monies to acquire open space in the Town Center. The City did not receive the funding
due to scoring of responses in the application that did not meet the threshold level of points.
The staff would like to reapply in 1999 again for these funds. To improve the chances that our
application will receive more points this time around, new policies are proposed below that
address the P-2000 Program staff s concerns and suggestions.
Below is the original responses to the application concerning growth management and the City's
comprehensive plan and the proposed new policies (LG-CPA-2-98, LG-CPA-3-98,
LG-CP A-4-98)

Authorization
REQUEST:
The Community Development Department - Planning Division requests the City Commission
hold a public hearing on Ordinance 2000-21 to consider rescinding Ordinance 758, adopted on
. May 8, 2000 establishing three (3) policy statements in the comprehensive plan involving
preservation of historic and environmentally sensitive resources.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this Agenda Item is to rescind three (3) policy statements adopted on May 8,
2000 and transmitted to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) on May 9, 2000 as a large
scale comprehensive plan amendment (DCA #00-2). The Town Center plan amendment (Ord.
2000-10) and the Public Schools Facilities Location plan amendment (Ord. 2000-09) were
adopted on a different date on April 24, 2000, Therefore, DCA views the submittal as a second
submission even though they were all transmitted on the same date, May 9, 2000, via Federal
Express Service. Rescinding Ord. 758 will reopen the second "window" for submission in
calendar year 2000, Failure to act will negate the opportunities for a second plan amendment
normally filed in August.
APPLICABLE LAW AND PUBLIC POLICY:
The provisions of 163 .3l84(3)(b) F. S. which states in part: '" ,"Local governing bodies shall
consolidate all proposed plan amendments into a single submission for each of the two plan
amendment adoption dates during the calendar year pursuant to 163,3 187 F, S,"

CONSIDERA TIONS:
.
The Town Center plan amendment [ LG-CP A-I-99 ; Ord, 2000-10 ] and the Public
Schools Facilities Location [ LG-CP A-4-99; Ord. 2000-09 ] plan amendment were

CP A-2-98, LG-CP A-3-98, LG-CP A-4-98) dealing with land conservation and resource
protection on May 8, 2000,
.
DCA staff was advised that adoption of Ord. 758 involving three (3) policy statements
was delayed until May 8, 2000 and would not be adopted simultaneously with the Town
Center plan amendment and the Public Schools Facilities Location plan amendment.
· DCA informed the City that all three amendments would be considered as a single
submittal package if they were filed with DCA on the same date.
· The Town Center plan amendment, Public Schools Facilities Location plan amendment
and the three (3) policy statements dealing with land conservation and resource protection
were mailed via Federal Express Service on May 9,2000,
· On June 12, 2000, DCA advised in writing that since the amendments were adopted on
different dates, the State will view the submittal as two submittals, thereby using the City's
second "window" submittal opportunity scheduled for August, 2000.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Commission hold a public hearing to consider for first reading Ordinance
2000-21 to rescind Ordinance 758 that adopted three (3) policy slatements Iransmitted as an
adopted large scale comprehensive plan amendment (DCA #00-2) to Ihe Florida Department of
Community Affairs, Rescinding this plan amendment (DCA #00-2) would reopen the second
