2021 EAR-Based Comprehensive Plan Amendments Memorandum To: Town Zoning Board, Town Council and Mayor From: Terry O'Neil, Town Management Consultant Cc: Pam Orr, Town Clerk Date: January 20, 2021 Rick Crary, Town Attorney Re: State mandated updates to the Town's Comprehensive Plan Since the mid 1980's, counties, cities and towns in Florida have been required by law to adopt and adhere to locally-developed growth management plans. These plans, typically called comprehensive plans, must be ratified by local ordinance and must at a minimum include a set ofstate-prescribed "elements" or chapters. These are: (1) Future Land Use, (2) Transportation, (3) Housing, (4). Sanitary Sewer, Solid Waste, Drainage, Potable Water & Natural Groundwater Recharge, (5) Coastal Management, (6) Conservation, (7) Recreation & Open Space, (8) Comprehensive plans are blueprints for future growth and sit atop the hierarchy of local government development standards to the extent that all other regulations such as zoning codes, Planned Unit Development Agreements (PUD's), etc., must be "comp plan consistent" to be enforceable. Local regulations that fail to meet this consistency standard are vulnerable to Intergovernmental Coordination, and (9) Capital Improvements. legal challenge and being overturned. Town's obligation to update its Comprehensive Plan With the passage of time, as state laws change, certain elements of a community's comprehensive plan become deficient or outdated. Consequently, about every seven years local governments in Florida are required to examine their plans and update them as required, including any desired amendments accounting for changes in local conditions. The Ocean Breeze Plan was last updated in 2014. Such amendments are called Evaluation and Appraisal Review Based or "EAR-Based" amendments. Amendment Process EAR-Based amendments must be adopted by local ordinance. This requires at least one public hearing before the Town's Zoning Board (which acts as an advisory board and consists oft the Town Council and a non-voting member from the School Board*) and at least two public hearings before the Council. Transmittal of the "updating ordinance" to the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO). and other reviewing agencies occurs upon its adoption by the Council on first reading. The DEO then has 60 days to advise the Town of any "objections, 1 District1 1School Board Member, LIR Roberts, has kindly agreed tos serve ast the non- voting member. 1 2021 EAR-Based Comprehensivel Plan Amendments recommendations, and comments"in a document issued by the agency known as an ORC Report. The Town then has 180 days from receipt oft the ORC to consider its content, make changes tot the amendments if necessary and adopt the ordinance on second and final reading. Jurisdictions adopting (ori failing to adopt) amendments which are objected to or insisted upon by the DEO may be subject to legal challenge by the agency. Staff anticipates second reading of Ordinance No. 310-2021 in May, June or at the latest July of this year. Format and types of amendments Proposed amendments to the Town's Comprehensive Plan are contained in draft Ordinance No. 310-2021, including "Exhibit A" which is a verbatim version oft the current plan with additions and deletions shown as underlined and struckthrough language. An explanation for each These proposed amendments falli into three categories: (1) minor housekeeping changes to remove outdated terms, add dates, etc., (2) edits that account for changes in local conditions that have occurred since the Town Plan's last update (particularly development of the OB East and West PUD's), and (3) amendments that must be adopted to meet legislative requirements adopted by the Florida Legislature since 2014. Amendments in this third category are the most substantive; are limited almost exclusively to the Town Plan's Coastal Element and are intended to meet the new' "Peril of Flood" legislation found in Chapter 163. 3178 (2)(F) 1-6 of Florida change is provided in the margin.

Area (CIA)2021." The Town's coastal impact area extends approximately 1,600 feet along the western shore of the Indian River Lagoon in Martin County and has been determined using the County's most recent Coastal High Hazard Area (CHHA) map, FEMA's most recent flood map, as well as exhibits from the County's 2017-2019 Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) grant funded "Resilience Program" which seeks to forecast the impacts of local sea level rise over time. Maps consulted in preparing the Town's CIA exhibit, copies attached, are listed below: Coastal High Hazard.

Except for Indian River Drive, which is maintained by Martin County, all property within the impact area is private property. The area shown is approximately six acres in size. Of this area, 1.5 acres is County right-of-way and approximately .86 acres is a publicly accessible promenade/park, including stormwater baffle boxes and a water quality bio swale. This $1.48 million project was recently completed through alown-County-Resort partnership, including significant grants from the FDEP, South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD), and Indian River Lagoon Council.

Thirty-four of these sites are now occupied by new (elevated) module homes which have been built in accordance FEMA guidelines. The remaining 6 units are older mobile homes which will be replaced over time with flood-compliant modular units. Three sites are currently vacant.

C.F.R. part 60. Given the Town's size and limited scope of services, the Ocean Breeze Comprehensive Plan is considerably less extensive than those of larger jurisdictions. At present, the Town does not own any real property, buildings or other appreciable capital assets, nor does it control or maintain any rights-of-way. Water, sewer, fire protection, emergency medical and law enforcement services are provided by Martin County. Except for Indian River Drive, which isa county road, all streets, sidewalks, etc. ini the town are privately owned and maintained. There are no publicly maintained parks or schools in the Town. Trash collection is privately provided. Because oft these characteristics, the number of mandatory comprehensive plan amendments expected of the Town is comparatively few and again almost exclusively focused on the plan's That said, the Zoning Board and Council will note that that there are several staff proposed amendments in the Land Use Element; Housing Element; Sanitary. Sewer, Solid Waste, Drainage, Potable Water & Natural Groundwater Recharge Element; Conservation Element and Coastal Element. 6 2021 EAR-Based Comprehensive Plan Amendments Intergovernmenta Element, which stem primarily from the fact that, since the comprehensive plan was last update in 2014, both the Ocean Breeze Resort and Seawalk single-family subdivision (together encompassing 90% of the Town'sl land area) have negotiated PUD agreements with the To date, the Ocean Breeze Resort's! 500 (+/-) sites are nearly half occupied by new modular units or older mobile homes, while the remaining lots are nearly fully occupied by RV's. Of Seawalk's 143 single-family lots, 67 homes are either built, occupied or actively under construction. Given the trajectory oft these two projects, as well as the fact that Ocean Breeze Plaza (10% of the Town's land area) has long-since been developed, it seems reasonable to conclude that the Town's future growth patterns have been largely fixed through the 2035 As for staff proposed amendments stemming from ongoing development of Ocean Breeze Town and are now actively under development. planning horizon and well beyond.
