At that hearing, <br />the Board considered recommendations and public input and directed staff to make certain changes <br />to the proposed amendments. Staff has now made those changes, which are reflected in the attached <br />ordinance. <br />At the February lg hearing, the Board was satisfied with the first amendment regarding limited use <br />right-of-way and side yard designations, as proposed. Therefore, no changes have been made to that <br />amendment. At the same hearing, the Board directed staff to make changes to the second <br />amendment regarding use of docks on vacant single-family lots. Those changes involved the <br />elimination of a bonding requirement and the addition of a requirement for home construction and <br />C.O. (Certificate of Occupancy) within 3 years of the date of dock permit issuance. Therefore, if the <br />revised amendment is adopted, owners of vacant single-family waterfront lots will be able to build <br />and use docks for their own watercraft subject to site plan approval and a condition that a principal <br />dwelling must be constructed and C.O.'d on the lot within 3 years of issuance of a dock permit. <br />Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners adopt the revised_ LDR amendment <br />ordinance. <br />ATTACHMENTS: <br />1.
