• <br />Commissioner Stanbridge questioned the "new town" designation, and Director <br />Keating noted that the designation requires a development of a minimum size of 1200 acres <br />and there has to be a 6 -mile separation between each project so designated. The project must <br />be designed to fimction in a self-sufficient manner as an alternative to urban sprawl and must <br />be a Florida Quality Development. This designation gives the County complete control and <br />would also be addressed through the Florida Quality Development process which is even <br />more stringent and is under the control of the Department of Community Affairs. <br />Guy Barber believed this designation sounds like "sustainable communities" and <br />noted that this will put a lot of restrictions on the owners of properties in the 6 -mile <br />separation areas. <br />THE CHAHWAN CALLED THE QUESTION and <br />the Motion passed unanimously. (STAFF WAS <br />DIRECTED to make available to the public a copy <br />of backup materials at the North County Library, the <br />Main Library, and the Law Library.)
