I Ports, Aviation, and Related Facilities Figures 6.2, and 6.3 The purpose of this amendment is to update the maps of the Vero Beach Municipal Airport and the New Hibiscus Airport. Several changes have recently occurred, including a change in a clear zone at Vero Beach Municipal Airport, and these changes should be reflected in the comprehensive plan (see attachment 4). Water Sub -Element Policy 1.3, Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element Potable Water Sub -Element Policy 1.3, Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element Policy 1.3, and Capital Improvements Element Policy 3.5 set the utilities Level of Service (LOS) standards for the county. Each of these policies refers to county ordinance 84-18 which was replaced by ordinance 91-9. Consequently, 84-18 is no longer current. The purpose of this amendment is to update these policies so that the County Utilities Ordinance is no longer referenced (see attachment 4). This change will ensure that the policies are and remain accurate. DESCRIPTION OF DCA OBJECTIONS AND COMMENTS In its ORC report, DCA raised two objections to the proposed amendment. One objection related to the proposed Citrus Highway, while the other related to policies 1.3 of the Potable Water Sub - Element, 1.3 of the Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element, and •3.5 of the Capital Improvements Element. With reference to its objections regarding the proposed Citrus Highway, DCA stated that the proposed amendment is inconsistent with the requirements of Rule 9J-5, F.A.C. Specifically, DCA's position is that because a Corridor Planning and Design Report (CPDR) funded by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) has not been completed, the proposed amendment is not supported by adequate data and analysis, and lacks intergovernmental coordination required by both the County and State Comprehensive Plans. DCA's second objection is related to the proposed revisions to policies 1.3 of the Potable Water Sub -Element, 1.3 of the Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element and 3.5 of the Capital Improvements Element. These policies currently reference Utilities Ordinance 84-18, which has been replaced by Ordinance 91-9. The proposed revisions amend the policies to reference "the County Utilities Ordinance, as amended." The basis of DCA's objection is that the proposed amendment is inconsistent with the comprehensive plan amendment procedural requirements of 5.163.3187, F.S. DCA's position is that under the proposed amendment, future changes to the County Utilities Ordinance would, in effect, change the comprehensive plan without undergoing the required comprehensive plan amendment process. In addition to the referenced objections, the ORC report included one comment on another portion of the proposed amendment. The DCA comment related to the county's proposed amendment to Future Land Use Element Policy 1.25. Future Land Use Element Policy 1.25 of commercial/industrial nodes. eliminate these designations; in simply as commercial/industrial sentence of the policy is necessary of commercial/industrial nodes.
