Agenda 12/10/2013 Item #16A14 12/10/2013 16.A.14.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve the 2014 schedule for submittals to amend the Collier County
Growth Management Plan (GMP), as aligned with the Florida Statutes, and to approve
exemptions from the schedule.
OBJECTIVE: To have the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approve the 2014 schedule
for amending the Collier Growth Management Plan to reflect the changes provided for within
Resolution #12-234, adopted by the BCC at the November 13, 2012 public hearing, and to
approve exemptions from the schedule.
CONSIDERATIONS: Resolution #12-234 provides for a tri-annual GMP amendment cycle,
but the resolution does not contain the specificity of when the tri-annual cycle of GMP
amendments are to be initiated. The schedule proposed requires copies of an application to
amend the Collier County Growth Management Plan to be submitted no later than the last Friday
in February, June, and October, 2014.
It should be noted that due to the fact that the schedule is not embedded within Resolution #12-
234, every year the GMP amendment cycle will be set by the BCC. Staff intends to propose the
2015 GMP amendment schedule in December of 2014 to give the development community and
the general public advanced certainty of the upcoming year's submittal dates for GMP
amendments.
Staff is recommending the BCC maintain the current practice of processing the various types of
GMP amendments in relation to the amendment cycles. The past practice, following Florida
Statutes, exempted from the cycle the following types of GMP amendments: DRI-related,
located within a designated Rural Area of Critical Economic Concern (RACEC), and Small
Scale amendments. Staff is requesting the BCC maintain the exemption from the cycle
limitations for the above-described GMP amendments.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact for approving the proposed schedule and the
exemption from the cycles of certain types of GMP amendments.
GROWTH MANAGEMENT PLAN (GMP) IMPACT: Approval of the proposed 2014
schedule for GMP amendment applications will satisfy the direction provided for in Resolution
12-234, which allocates a tri-annual cycle for GMP amendments.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality, and it requires a
majority vote for approval--HFAC
RECOMMENDATION: Recommendation for the Board to approve: (1) the schedule for the
tri-annual GMP amendment cycle application submittal deadlines as the last Friday in February,
June and October; and, (2) provide for the exemption from the cycle limitations for the following
types of GMP amendments: DRI-related, located within a designated Rural Area of Critical
Economic Concern (RACEC), and Small Scale amendments.
