RECOMMENDATION:
5:46 p.m. - A Public Hearing Concerning the Review of an Ordinance Amending Chapter 3, Section 3.04 Definitions; OBJ FLU 1.3, FLU Map Designations and FLU 3.1 Rural Development
That the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) review and transmit to the Department of Economic Opportunity (DEO), an Ordinance amending the Comprehensive Plan: amending Chapter 3, Section 3.04, Definitions; amending OBJ FLU 1.3 Future Land Use Map designations; and amending OBJ FLU 3.1 Rural Development.
This serves as the first of two required public hearings.
BACKGROUND:
Escambia County Board of County Commissioners finds that the current Comprehensive Plan Section FLU 3.1.5 restricts the ability of a person or entity to obtain approval of a comprehensive plan amendment to the Rural Community (RC) future land use category; the Board has determined that FLU 3.1.5 unduly limits the Board’s ability to manage growth and development within the County and should be amended.

No budgetary impact is anticipated by the adoption of this Ordinance.
LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS/SIGN-OFF:
The attached Ordinance has been reviewed and approved for legal sufficiency by Kia M. Johnson, Assistant County Attorney. Any recommended legal comments are attached herein.
PERSONNEL:
No additional personnel are required for implementation of this Ordinance.
POLICY/REQUIREMENT FOR BOARD ACTION:
The proposed Ordinance is consistent with the Board’s goal “to increase citizen involvement in, access to, and approval of, County government activities.”
IMPLEMENTATION/COORDINATION:
This Ordinance, amending the Comprehensive Plan, will be filed with the Department of State following adoption by the board.
Implementation of this Ordinance will consist of an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan and distribution of a copy of the adopted Ordinance to interested citizens and staff.
The proposed Ordinance was prepared by the Development Services Department, in cooperation with the County Attorney’s Office and all interested citizens. The Development Services Department will ensure proper advertisement.
