<br />Consistency with Comprehensive Plan
<br />Comprehensive Plan amendment requests are reviewed for consistency with all policies of the
<br />Comprehensive Plan . As per section 800 . 07 ( 1 ) of the County Code, the "Comprehensive Plan may
<br />only be amended in such a way as to preserve the internal consistency of the plan pursuant to Section
<br />163 . 3177 (2)F. S . " Amendments must also show consistency with the overall designation of land uses
<br />as depicted on the Future Land Use Map , which includes agricultural , residential , recreational ,
<br />conservation , and commercial and industrial land uses and their densities .
<br />The goals , objectives and policies are the most important parts of the Comprehensive Plan . Policies
<br />are statements in the plan that identify the actions which the county will take in order to direct the
<br />community ' s development . As courses of action committed to by the county , policies provide thebasisforallcountylanddevelopmentdecisions . While all Comprehensive Plan policies are
<br />important, some have more applicability than others in reviewing plan amendment requests . Of
<br />particular applicability for this request are the following policies :
<br />Future Land Use Policy 14 . 3
<br />The most important policy to consider in evaluating a plan amendment request for consistency with
<br />the county ' s Comprehensive Plan is Future Land Use Element Policy 14 . 3 . This policy requires that
<br />at least one of four criteria be met in order to approve a land use amendment request. These criteria
<br />are :
<br />a mistake in the approved plan ;
<br />an oversight in the approved plan ;
<br />a substantial change in circumstances affecting the subject property ; or
<br />a swap or a reconfiguration of land uses at separate sites .
<br />Staff' s position is that this land use amendment request meets Policy 14 . 3 's third criterion ,
<br />When the current Comprehensive Plan was approved on February 13 , 1990 , the plan assigned
<br />commercial/industrial zoned properties to commercial nodes . These nodes were designated various
<br />sizes to reflect commercial demand and were established in certain areas to incorporate lands deemed
<br />suitable for commercial development . The subject property was considered for inclusion in the node
<br />at that time .
<br />When the comprehensive plan was adopted , the subject property was not included in the node for
<br />the following reasons :
<br />There was already sufficient land designated commercial/industrial to accommodate
<br />projected demand , and
<br />0 Given the size and shape of the subject property , residential development was determined
<br />to be feasible .
<br />For these reasons , staff' s position is that there was no mistake nor oversight in the Comprehensive
<br />Plan .
<br />There have , however, been two changes in circumstances affecting the subject property . The most
<br />t , important change relates to the ± 18 .7 acre tract of land abutting the subject property on the east .
<br />That land was given a residential land use designation and a residential zoning district when the
<br />E :comprehensive plan was adopted in 1990 .
