or be deemed a "partial taking" in certain cases.
• Section Five A: May require a Comprehensive Plan Amendment and as
currently worded, may create an unintended "conflict of interest" (i.e. the
density transfer requires approval by the BCC who would also oversee any
eminent domain considerations for the same lands affected).
• Section Six B: The uses allowed as "interim uses" are to restrictive for lands
located within the "Transportation Corridor" and should be restricted to lands
within the "Protected Corridor. "

Ordinance for consideration at a later date.

for the Immokalee- Mobile Home Park Overlay Subdistrict; 10.02.05 Submittal Requirements
for Improvement Plans

Overlay Subdistrict by making the following changes:
• Removes the time limit for when a nonconforming mobile home park must get a site
improvement plan (SIP).
• Makes the SIP process voluntary.
• Parks that get an approved SIP will become legal parks and be allowed to replace
units.
• Parks that do not go through the SIP process will remain nonconforming and be
subject to the nonconforming provisions of 9.03.00. These parks are not guaranteed
that they can replace units.
• Provides a 3 -year extension for parks that received an approved SIP, but expired prior
to improvements being made, to make the approved improvements.
• Clarifies who is responsible for the removal of unpermitted /unsafe mobile homes,
consistent with 723.024 F.S.
• Limits the required improvements for parks with fewer than 5 units to only meeting
the dimensional standards.
• Allows for nonconforming parks that cannot meet design standards to be approved
through a Settlement Agreement approved by the Board of County Commissioners.
Additionally, the amendment moves all design requirements to Section 4.02.33 and
references that submittal requirements will be provided for in the Administrative Code. The
submittal requirements will be removed from the LDC as part of the Administrative Code.
