The subject property is legally described as a parcel of land being Lot 1 and Lot 2 of Dolphin Estates as recorded in Plat Book 7 Page 26 of the Public Records of Monroe County, Florida and land adjacent, together with a 1/7 undivided interest in a parcel of land lying at the bottom of that area described as “boat basin”, having Property ID number 00319493-000100 and 00319493-000200. (File 2019-229)

Hearing date: January 29, 2020

1 I. DECISION BEING APPEALED: 2 The Appellant and subject property owner, Gregory B. Burkhardt (the “Appellant” or “property 3 owner”), filed a building permit application 19102673 for 400-amp electric service with 2 4 security lights for a commercial fishing business at 2158 Spanish Channel Road and 32045 5 Marginella Drive, No Name Key. By letter (Attachment A) dated October 28, 2019 the Monroe 6 County Building Official informed the Appellant that Building Permit #19102673 was issued in 7 error, due to the fact that the permit was failed by the Planning & Environmental Resources 8 Department for the Planning portion of its review and did not demonstrate compliance with the 9 Monroe County Land Development Code and Comprehensive Plan. On November 26, 2019, 10 Appellant filed an application for Administrative Appeal pursuant to LDC Section 102-185. 11 Appellant’s statement of the Basis of Appeal: “Letter dated October 28, 2019 notifying Appelant 12 (sic) that Building Permit # 19102673 was issued in error and intends to revoke it on the grounds 13 that it is a threat to health, safety and welfare of the Public. Appellant denies that the permit must 14 be revoked. A copy of the letter is attached hereto.” The Appellant included a document titled 15 “Basis of Appeal” along with documents categorized as “Prior Code Enforcement Proceedings” 16 and “Lists of Witnesses and Affadivits” (sic) with the application for Administrative Appeal. 17 18

Resolution #Z-1 memorialized the approval. Zoning designations for specific 54 properties were established by ordinance. In 1973, Monroe County adopted a revised set of 55 zoning regulations that continued to reference zoning or land use districts. Ordinance #1- 56 1973 memorialized the approval. Ordinance #1-1973 also approved a series of zoning maps 57 for all areas of the unincorporated county by reference (also known as the pre-1986 zoning 58 maps). These maps were effective from their approval in 1973 until the adoption of 59 Ordinance #033-1986 in 1986. 60

REVIEW OF APPLICATION: 197 In the “Basis of Appeal” document provided in the application for Administrative Appeal the 198 Appellant asserts the following: 199 200 • Appellant’s statement:

201 202 Pursuant to Monroe County Code Chapter 6 Division 3. – Permits, Inspections and 203 Certificates of Occupancy:

204 205 The letter of October 28, 2019 clearly documents that the revocation of permit is based on 206 MCC Sec. 6-104(3) and provides the basis for the determination. The Appellant’s statement 207 does not address the basis for the revocation of the permit. 208 209 • Appellant’s statement:

210 211 The permit applicant was notified on 8/12/2019 and 9/04/2019 that the building permit 212 application failed Planning & Environmental Resources Department review. The review of 213 9/04/19 provided guidance that documentation was needed to be submitted to the building 214 permit application establishing use.

Neither has been provided by the Appellant. 220 Until 1986, commercial fishing was not a permitted use on the property. There is no evidence 221 of commercial fishing use or any other use having been established on the property. As 222 previously documented in this report, the code requires that development as of right be 223 established via a building permit pursuant to Land Development Regulations Division 2 224 Development As Of Right (1986) and pursuant to Land Development Code Chapter 110 225 Article III Development As Of Right and Article VI Building Permits (current code). In order 226 to establish a use permitted as of right, a building permit is required. 227 Pursuant to Land Development Code Section 102-21(b)(2)i the Planning Director has the 228 authority to issue Letters of Understanding (LOU) and Letters of Development Rights 229 Determination (LDRD). As of the writing of this report, the Appellant has not applied for an 230 LDRD. Content that the Appellant wishes to have considered as evidence of the lawful 231 establishment of use can be considered by the Planning & Environmental Resources 232 Department through an application for Letter of Development Rights Determination. 233

247 248 The building permit application is for 400-amp electric service with 2 security lights. The 249 installation of a structure is development. The lighting, electric service equipment and 250 supporting structures all require a location on a parcel of land and are therefore a structure as 251 per the definitions provided above. In no event shall an accessory use or structure be 252 established prior to the principal use to which it is accessory. Structures must comply with 253 required setbacks pursuant to LDC Section 131-1 and 131-3 and lighting must comply with 254 LDC chapter 114, Article VI – Outdoor Lighting. 255 256 VI. RECOMMENDATION: 257 The decision by the Planning & Environmental Resources Department was based on the 258 criteria provided in the Monroe County 2030 Comprehensive Plan, Livable CommuniKeys 259 Plan for Big Pine and No Name Key, the Habitat Conservation Plan, the Incidental Take 260 Permit, the Land Development Code and the findings of fact summarized in this staff report. 261 262 Based upon review of all of the available information, Planning & Environmental Resources 263 Department staff recommends that the Planning Commission UPHOLD the revocation of 264 building permit # 19102673 by the Building Official. 265 266 VII.

Attachment B

The model assumed total habitat loss for newly developed parcels. The Key deer uses all available open areas, including developed areas. However, the PVA model assumes that any development on vacant parcels results in the loss of the entire parcel. For example, 200 developed residential lots in Pine Channel Estates contribute 1.8 Key deer to the carrying capacity of the study area (i.e., K = 1.8). However, the model assumes that 200 new houses will contribute nothing to the carrying capacity. Therefore, the model overestimates the impact of development and provides a conservative support to planning for development activities.

The Applicants chose to evaluate a more stringent population viability measure. Recent PVA and conservation literature recommends that conservation planners evaluate shorter-term risks to make management decisions (Akcakaya 2000, Akcakaya and Sjogren-Gulve 2000). The Key deer PVA model can estimate a variety of risk timeframes. For example, extinction risk may be expressed as the probability of extinction of the Key deer in 100 years. Historically, the Key deer population dwindled to less than 50 individuals, but rebounded with the implementation of protection measures (see Section 1.2.1). The Applicants chose to use the risk that the population falls below 50 females at least once in 50 years as a more conservative and realistic measure of risk in evaluating potential development activities. This more stringent indicator guided subsequent viability and incidental take analyses.

Finally, the estimated level of take omits the potential effects of the recently constructed US-1 projects. According to the Service’s Biological Opinion (Service 2001), the combined effect of the underpasses and intersection improvement projects could be nine fewer human-related deer deaths per year. The model suggests that such reduction in mortality would ameliorate a significant portion of the impact of the proposed 20-year development program.

5.3.2 Avoidance and Minimization

Avoidance and minimization measures were applied at every step in the preparation of the HCP. First, the Applicants made key decisions, discussed above, in the development and use of the Key deer PVA model, which resulted in a conservative approach to modeling.

Second, development activities in the project area will occur in accordance with the following guidelines, which ensure avoidance and minimization of impacts to the Key deer and other covered species:

1. The total impact of commercial, institutional, and residential development over 20 years will not exceed H = 1.1. 2. New residential development will be limited to a maximum of 200 dwelling units over 20 years. 3. Clearing of native habitat will be limited to parcels to be developed for residential use or for local road widening. The total amount of clearing over 20 years will be limited to no more than 7 acres. No clearing of native habitat, other than that necessary and authorized for new residential development, local road widening, or fire breaks to protect residential areas will be allowed. All other development will occur on disturbed lands.

57 Attachment B

4. New residential development in Tier 1 areas will be limited to no more than five percent of all residential units permitted over the 20-year period (i.e., a maximum of 10 units) or a total H = 0.022 (two percent of the total H), whichever results in a lower H. 5. No new development other than single-family residential and accessory uses will be permitted in Tier 1. The total H of all development in Tier 1 will not exceed H = 0.022. 6. No development will be permitted which may result in habitat loss on the Sands corridor, as shown in Figure 5.2. With the completion of the Key deer underpasses and the proposed widening of US-1 along the business segment on Big Pine Key, native habitat in the Sands Subdivision area constitutes the main corridor connecting Key deer habitat south and north of US-1 (Figure 5.2).

Figure 5.2 Key deer corridor across Sands Subdivision

7. New residential and commercial development will occur progressively over 20 years, thus minimizing the extent of construction impacts that occur at any given time. 8. New commercial development will be limited to infill in existing commercial areas on Tier 2 and Tier 3 lands, mainly along the US-1 corridor on Big Pine Key (Appendix B). This includes all current commercially zoned areas south of Lytton’s Way. All new commercial development would be limited to disturbed lands, as defined in the Monroe County Code (9.5-4 [D-14][S-2]). Clearing of pinelands and/or hammock will not be permitted for commercial development activities.

58 Attachment B

9. Expansion of private non-residential facilities will be restricted primarily to within the US-1 corridor, as described above. 10. The modified ROGO will continue to give new development priority to Tier 3 over Tier 2 and Tier 1 lands. 11. New recreational and community facilities development would be restricted to existing developed areas that are either already publicly owned or acquired for that purpose. 12. Minor recreational and community facilities will be restricted to areas within existing improved subdivisions. 13. Community organizations’ development will be restricted to expansions, on existing organization-owned land, up to the buildable area limits per Monroe County Code. No clearing of native habitat will be permitted for these expansions. 14. Speed limits, traffic calming devices, and other measures will be applied to lower the probability of vehicle collisions with Key deer and Lower Keys marsh rabbit on county roads. 15. Public infrastructure development will be restricted to disturbed lands as defined in the Monroe County Code (9.5-4 [D-14][S-2]). 16. No new fences will be allowed in Tier 1 lands, unless they are authorized by the Service. The Service will review applications for fences in Tier 1 for impacts on protected species. 17. No additional fences will be allowed in the US-1 commercial corridor. 18. Fences will be subject to restrictions and guidelines established in agreement with the Service. All fencing will follow the guidelines in Appendix C. 19. No development will be allowed in Lower Keys marsh rabbit habitat. No residential or commercial development will be allowed within 500 meters of marsh rabbit habitat, with the exception of isolated areas (i.e., the green hatched areas on Figure 2.2). Road widening activities along US-1 would occur within existing cleared and filled portions of the FDOT right-of-way. 20. FDOT will avoid impacts to wetlands during US-1 three-laning. 21. Accessory uses will be permitted on lots adjacent to existing developed lots only in Tier 2 and Tier 3 lands. Residential accessory uses would be limited to those listed in the Monroe County Code (Chapter 9.5-4[A-2]). 22. The county will implement an animal control education program to educate the public regarding the potential negative effect of domestic predators on the Lower Keys marsh rabbit. The education program will also request that the public report any Lower Keys marsh rabbit road mortality to the county or to the FWS. 23. The county and Service will annually review and evaluate the need and feasibility of additional regulatory measures to control the spread of domestic predators. If deemed necessary and feasible, measures will be enacted within at a date to be determined through mutual agreement.

59 Attachment B

24. The county will ensure that standard protection measures for the eastern indigo snake will be implemented during all construction activities to minimize impacts on eastern indigo snakes.

5.3.3 Habitat Mitigation and Habitat Banking

The Applicants propose to mitigate for the incidental take of covered species by acquiring and managing native habitat areas within the HCP project area. The harvest grid used in the PVA (see Section 3) provides a measure of habitat quality and potential indirect effects (i.e., increased human-related mortality) on the Key deer. It also provides a simple currency to compare impacts versus mitigation.

This HCP proposes a level of incidental take not to exceed a total impact area of H equals 1.1. The Applicants will mitigate incidental take impacts by acquiring and managing habitat areas at a 3:1 ratio, using H as the unit of measurement. Therefore, over 20 years, lands with a value totaling an H of 3.3 will be acquired and managed. Land acquisition will occur in advance of or simultaneously with development activities. Should the cumulative Hacquired lag the cumulative Himpact by 5 percent at any time during the permit period, Monroe County will halt development permit issuance until Hacquired is within 5 percent of Himpact.

During the building moratorium, Monroe County has continued to acquire lands for conservation. Monroe County issued 29 development permits - during a temporary lifting of the moratorium in 1996 - as well as 266 fencing permits. The Applicants propose to use the H value of acquired parcels, after taking into account permits issued for residential units and fences at a 3:1 ratio, as part of the overall mitigation required under this HCP.
