l <br />STATE OF FLORIDA <br />DEPAR <br />odl, TNtENT OF Bob Graham. Governor <br />t 1 kL` <br />'. Health & Rehabilitative Services <br />BOULEVARD <br />Mr. Robert Kessler <br />Department of Veteran <br />Community Affairs <br />2571 Executive Center <br />Tallahassee, Florida <br />Dear Mr. Kessler: <br />and <br />TALLAHASSEE, FLORIDA 32301 <br />May 12, 1982 <br />Circle, East <br />32301 <br />RE: Indian River County Local <br />Government Comprehensive Plan <br />The Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services has <br />reviewed the above referenced plan. This plan does not address <br />the planning for group and foster home sites as required by the <br />1980 amendment to the Local Government Comprehensive Planning Act <br />(Section 163.3177(6)(f)4, Florida Statutes). This Department, <br />therefore, recommends that an objection be filled against the plan <br />regarding this particular omission. <br />In July 1981, we reviewed a housing element submitted by <br />Indian River County. That document included a statement under its <br />regulatory policies that, "the county will incorporate provisions <br />into the zoning ordinance to permit group housing facilities." This <br />statement, nor any other similar type of statement, is not included <br />in the current local plan. <br />We recommend that Indian River County reinstate this policy <br />into their plan and expand their discussion to -.include how and when <br />their zoning ordinances would be revised. To assist them in <br />understanding the zoning issues involved, I can make available <br />to them the "Guidelines for Zoning and Special Community Housing." <br />For consultation regarding fulfillment of the above referenced <br />requirement, the appropriate official should feel free to contact <br />me at (904) 488-4311. <br />Sincerely, <br />Jim Hardison <br />Chairperson , <br />HRS Housing`Task Force <br />cc: Mr. Larry Dougher <br />HRS District 9 Administrator mw 50 PACE37 <br />1 <br />JUL 13 1982 ATTArVNT7.NT Al (1 A of 91) <br />
