Dylan Reingold, County Attorney William K. DeBraal, Deputy County Attorney Kate Pingolt Cotner, Assistant County Attorney Oce of INDIAN MEMORANDUM Aitorney'.rMatters 12/20/2016 RIVER COUNTY TO: The Board of County Commissioners OV -0 -- FROM: William K. DeBraal, Deputy County Attorney DATE: December 14, 2016 ATTORNEY SUBJECT: Approval of First Amendment to Declaration of Restrictive Covenants for Windsor PD. In 2009, the County and Windsor Properties, (Windsor) with the permission of the Board of Trustees of the Internal Improvement Fund, completed a property exchange where Windsor deeded to the County a 9.287 acre parcel of property located on the north barrier island, between State Road A1A and the Atlantic Ocean, which is now Golden Sands Park. In exchange, the County deeded to Windsor a 9.287 acre parcel of property which was the former site of Golden Sands Park. The exchange made the property received by Windsor contiguous with the Windsor development, thus, physically consolidating Windsor's ownership. As part of the exchange, Windsor constructed a new Golden Sands Park for the County, as the old park had been badly damaged in the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005. Before the exchange could be completed, an amendment to the County's Comprehensive Plan had to be made in order to change the future land use designation and the zoning of the parcels. At the time of the exchange, Windsor had planned to continue construction of large ocean front estates on the 9.287 acres obtained from the County, and subsequently platted it that way but did not sell the lots. A copy of the 2011 plat is attached to this memo as Exhibit A. Even though the underlying zoning on the Windsor property is RS -3, Residential Single Family, up to 3 single family residential units per acre, Windsor voluntarily agreed to limit the density to one unit per acre as outlined in the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants dated December 23, 2008, attached to this memo as Exhibit B.
