• • Caribbean Fruit Fly host plants shall be prohibited on the subject site. That prohibition shall be enforceable through the county code enforcement board; and • A deed restriction shall be recorded and established on the subject site. That deed restriction shall prohibit the occurrence of Caribbean Fruit Fly host -plants on the subject site and shall be acceptable to the county attorney's office. Because many active citrus groves continue to exist within the urban service area, on non - agriculturally designated land, the proposed amendment expands these restrictions to those areas. The revisions related to Caribbean Fruit Fly host plants involve changes to Future Land Use Element Policy 6.5. Clarification of the Future Land Use Map This is a minor non -substantive amendment intended to clarify the Future Land Use Map. Currently, the comprehensive plan contains two maps (Future Land Use Element Figures 2.31a and 2.31b) depicting land use designations and the urban service area Because these maps are difficult to read, the proposed amendment replaces references to those maps with references to a more accurate, more legible, and larger scale version. The proposed amendment does not change any land use designation or urban service area boundaries. The revisions related to clarification of the Future Land Use Map involve Future Land Use Element Policies 1.1 and 2.1; and portions of Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element Policy 5.8, and Potable Water Sub -Element Policy 5.7. Utility Service to Agricultural Businesses With few exceptions, the extension of utility service outside the urban service area is prohibited. This amendment makes two changes related to those exceptions. The first change clarifies and ensures that approved agricultural businesses operating on agriculturally designated land (outside the urban service area) can receive necessary utility service if the lack of utilities is determined to be a health threat. The proposed amendment also allows potable water service to any approved agricultural business if the business is located near the urban service area. Specifically, at least a portion of the business's development site must be located within one mile of a public roadway which serves as an urban service area boundary. The utility service revisions related to agricultural businesses involve Future Land Use Element Policy 6. 1, Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element Policy 5.8, and Potable Water Sub -Element Policy 5.7. Post -Disaster Recovery and Redevelopment Coastal Management Element Objective 7 and the eight policies associated with that objective involve post -disaster recovery and redevelopment. Specifically, Objective 7 and Policies 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4 call for the development and adoption of a Local Mitigation Strategy (LMS) as an annex to the County's Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan. In November, 1999, the Board of County Commissioners adopted an LMS. That action implemented and completed Policies 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4, which can now be deleted. The proposed amendment will revise Objective 7; delete Policies 7.2, 7.3, and 7.4; and renumber the remaining policies. November 7, 2000 103 •
