CONSIDERATION OF EAR (E VAL UATIONAND APPRAISAL REPORT) BASED AMENDMENTS TO THE COUNTY'S COMPREHENSIVE PLAN (LEGISLATIVE) PROOF OF PUBLICATION OF ADVERTISEMENT FOR HEARING IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD Community Development Director Robert Keating stated that on May 11, 2010, the Board had approved transmittal of the proposed amendments to the County's 2020 Comprehensive Plan, to the Department of Community Affairs (DCA) for review, and today is the final public hearing to consider revision of the 2020 Comprehensive Plan. Through a PowerPoint presentation (on file) he outlined the seven comments and single objection (see pages 187 and 188 of backup) in DCA's Objections, Recommendations, and Comments (ORC) Report, and asked the Board how it wished to handle a comment regarding the objection of the St. John's River Water Management District (SJRWMD) to Policy 1.12 of the Intergovernmental Coordination Element. He reported that staff had addressed DCA's objection to include an Energy Conservation Map in its Future Land Use Element (a new State requirement), by revising the Future Land Use Map to designate the Urban Service Area (USA) as the County's "Energy Conservation Map". Director Keating thereafter confirmed the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission and staff for the Board to adopt the Ordinance approving the EAR based amendments and to direct staff to submit the amendments to DCA for its compliance finding. Chairman O'Bryan wanted to know whether Amendment 4, if passed at the November 2, 2010 General Election, would require putting each individual amendment up for voter approval. (Clerk's Note: Amendment 4 proposed requiring a taxpayer funded referendum for all changes to local government comprehensive land -use plans). 12 October 12, 2010
