"...a development of no less than twenty-five (25) acres, <br />containing resort housing and accessory recreational <br />amenities, designed for extended resort and vacation <br />stays." <br />Other than the previously mentioned changes in the planned <br />development (P.D.) and minimum size requirement changes, <br />discussion and concern have focused on the distinction of a <br />residential resort use from a hotel use. Aside from special <br />exception approval and extraordinary buffering requirements, <br />residential resort uses (under current LDRs) differ from hotel <br />uses in the following ways: <br />•Maximum Density <br />•Unit Layout/ <br />Composition <br />*Length of Stay <br />Hotel Residential Resort <br />36.3 units per acre <br />Sleeping quarters and <br />availability of bathroom <br />facilities required [not <br />a complete dwelling unit] <br />overnight (one night) <br />stays allowed <br />6, 8, or 10 units per <br />acre (varies by RM -6, <br />RM -8, or RM -10 zoning) <br />Sleeping quarters, <br />bathroom facilities, <br />cooking facilities, <br />and availability of <br />laundry facilities <br />required [constitutes <br />a complete dwelling <br />unit] <br />Extended stays <br />required (as <br />interpreted by <br />planning staff) <br />Clearer definition of extended stays would benefit all parties. <br />Such clarification would ensure consistent application of the <br />requirement, rather than addressing the issue on a case-by-case <br />basis during special exception project reviews. In staff's <br />opinion, the length of stay is an important land use characteristic <br />that must be applied to residential resorts, to distinguish <br />residential resorts from hotel operations. In staff's opinion, <br />extended stay requirements are necessary to ensure that the project <br />use is a destination resort that accommodates patron vacation needs <br />on-site, rather than a use that can merely accommodate travel <br />"stop -overs" (i.e. hotel use). <br />Alternatives & Analysis: Planning staff contacted 9 central and <br />south Florida local governments that allow time-share and short- <br />term rental uses in higher density multi -family districts. It <br />appears that none of these jurisdictions have specific, written <br />regulations that restrict the length of stay for such time-share or <br />short-term rental units. In staff's opinion, one-night stays <br />should not be allowed in residential resort units, and a minimum <br />stay of three nights should be required. In analyzing the length <br />of stay issue, staff has determined that there are three basic <br />alternatives that address the issue. <br />1. The county could determine that no LDR changes are needed, <br />based on the fact that all units must have all the <br />characteristics of a complete dwelling unit, and that the <br />special exception review process allows specific compatibility <br />and use conditions to be attached to project approval. <br />2. The county could require a minimum average length of stay for <br />residential resort units. Such an average would need to be <br />tied to a specific timeframe and to a specific unit or group <br />of units (e.g. average length of stay during any calendar year <br />for all project units, combined). <br />3. The county could require a minimum stay for any given <br />residential resort unit. Planning staff recommends that a <br />minimum stay per unit of three nights be required.
