M M preservation areas will need to be provided on a phase by phase basis, with each phase meeting or exceeding the project's cumulative preservation requirements. The preservation areas will be dedicated as conservation easements on the project's final plats. *Turtle Protection: Since the project fronts on the Atlantic Ocean, the project is subject to the sea turtle protection requirements of section 932.09, regarding illumination of the beach. The applicant has agreed to comply with the provisions of section 932.09, and the submitted plans conceptually appear to meet the requirements. If conceptual PD plan and special exception approval are granted, subsequent preliminary,PD plans will be reviewed in detail for compliance with the criteria of section 932.09. *Potential On -Site Wetlands: During the conceptual plan review, the applicant identified a small area east of SR A -1-A, as possible jurisdictional wetlands. Upon closer inspection of the area by environmental planning staff, it appeared as though the area was not a wetland. The applicant has recently provided the staff with documentation that the jurisdictional agencies concur with environmental planning staff and have determined that the areas identified are not wetlands (see attachment 9). Therefore, no jurisdictional wetlands occur on site and no wetlands alteration or fill permits are -required for the project. •Beach Mouse: While there have been some staff concerns that -the federally endangered southeastern beach mouse may be present on the site's oceanside portion, preliminary trappings conducted by the applicant have not trapped any beach mice on the site. Although no beach mice have been trapped on site, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has indicated that a more extensive survey would be required to verify that no endangered mice exist on site. Rather than conduct an extensive year-long survey, the applicant has agreed to assume that beach mice may be on the site, and is continuing to coordinate with the Florida Game and Freshwater Fish Commission and the United States Fish and Wildlife Service to prepare a habitat management plan that is acceptable to both agencies and allows for the proposed development of the site. The conceptual PD plan appears to be consistent with the current habitat management plan proposals, which primarily cover the project area located seaward of the CCCL. Prior to issuance of a land development permit for any construction on parcels A or B (oceanside parcels), the applicant will need to obtain Jurisdictional agency approval of the management plan or obtain a letter from the agencies indicating that the construction being permitted will not adversely affect the habitat management plan area. 16. CONCURRENCY: The applicant has applied for a conditional concurrency certificate which has been reviewed by staff and will be issued prior to consideration by the Board of County Commissioners. 17. OWNERSHIP OF UNITS: The applicant is proposing to market the residential resort units as timeshare condominium units. Sale of these units as timeshares is not required by the county LDRs. Thus, these units could be sold as condominium units, 35 L_ SEP 71993 BOOK 90 p,,, F v � -7
