SEMINOLE COUNTY/CITY OF SANFORD JOINT PLANNING INTERLOCAL
AGREEMENT RELATING TO ADULT OR SEXUALLY ORIENTED USES
THIS JOINT PLANNING INTERLOCAL AGREEMENT is made and entered
into this 'i~ay of ~0~k/, 1998, by and between SEMINOLE
COUNTY, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, whose
address is Seminole County Services Building, 1101 East First
Street, Sanford, Florida 32771, hereinafter referred to as the
"COUNTY", and the CITY OF SANFORD, a Florida municipal corporation
whose address is Post Office Box 1788, Sanford, Florida 32772-1788,
hereinafter referred to as the "CITY".
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, it is beneficial to the public for local governments
to work together in a spirit of harmony,' collaboration and
cooperation and the CITY and the COUNTY have worked together in the
past as evidenced by numerous interlocal agreements such as, for
example, the Joint Planning Interlocal Agreement of November 21,
1991 which shall remain in effect subsequent to the effective date
of this Agreement; provided, however, that the terms of this
Agreement shall prevail as to adult and sexually oriented land
uses; and
WHEREAS, the provisions of the Local Government Comprehensive
Planning and Land Development Regulation Act (Part II, Chapter 163,
Florida Statutes), the Rules of the Florida Department of Community
Affairs (in particular Rule 9J-5.015, Florida Administrative Code)
and other applicable law provide for intergovernmental coordination
in the comprehensive planning process; and
1
WIIEREAS, the provisions of this Agreement are consistent with
the State Comprehensive Plan (Chapter 187, Florida Statutes); the
Strategic Regional Policy Plan adopted by the East Central Florida
Regional Planning Council and the land development regulations,
comprehensive plans and charters of the CITY and the COUNTY; and
WI{EREAS, it is desirable, to the maximum extent practicable
and conditioned upon a land use and legal analysis by both the
COUNTY and the municipalities located within the jurisdictional
limits of the COUNTY, for the land areas of Seminole County, both
within incorporated municipalities and in the unincorporated areas
of the COUNTY, to have essentially uniform regulation of establish-
ments which provide what is commonly referred to as "adult
entertainment" and businesses which are sexually oriented in
nature; and
WI{EREAS, Seminole CountyOrdinance Number 97-28, as amended by
Seminole County Ordinance Numbers 98-3 and 98-13 as well as City of
Sanford Ordinance Numbers 3185, 3195 and 3232, detail the general
types of establishments and businesses which are considered "adult
entertainment establishments" and "sexually oriented businesses"
(also referred to as "adult and sexually oriented uses" herein)
although the definitions of those terms are not necessarily
identical or static and may evolve from time-to-time; and
WHEREAS, the governing bodies of both the CITY and the COUNTY
believe that adult and sexually oriented uses are, by and large,
inconsistent with contemporary community standards as derived from
the expressions of numerous citizens and citizens' groups relative
2
to the presence of adult uses and sexually oriented businesses in
a community and, moreover, does not positively impact the sound
economic growth of the COUNTY; and
WI{EREAS, the identification of multi-jurisdictional parcels at
which adult or sexually oriented uses could be located with regard
to the CITY's and the COUNTY's constitutional obligations to
provide adequate alternative avenues or channels of communication
or expression would be in the best interests of the citizens of
Seminole County; and
WI{EREAS, the legislative findings set forth in Seminole County
Ordinance Number 97-28, as amended by Seminole County Ordinance
Numbers 98-2 and 98-13 as well as City of Sanford Ordinance Number
3185, are hereby adopted as if set forth fully herein; and
WI{EREAS, the provisions of Section 163.3171(3), Florida
Statutes, provide for the joint exercise of land use planning and
regulatory powers under the Local Government Comprehensive Planning
and Land Development Regulation Act and the parties to this
Agreement desire to cooperate relative to land use and regulatory
jurisdiction over adult entertainment establishments and sexually
oriented businesses; and
W~EREAS, it is the intent of the parties that developers of
adult uses be treated equally with other developers in terms of
site plan and other approvals that may be considered when an
application is made for such a use on land which is assigned the
appropriate zoning classification and it is, moreover, the intent
of the parties to insure that all State laws relative to concur-
3
rency requirements are adhered to relative to the provision of
adequate facilities and infrastructure and it is, moreover, hereby
found and determined by the parties that the Joint Sites have
accessible water and sewer service or can be served by wells and
septic systems, have a roadway system that can serve development
subject to standard land development regulations to which allother
development activities are subject, have adequate solid waste
services available, have fire and public safety services reasonably
available, and otherwise have the adequate capability to be served
with all necessary public facilities requisite for a development to
be approved and to move forward and through the development
processes; and
WHEREAS, Section 163.01, Florida Statutes, authorizes the
exercise by agreement between two (2) or more public agencies of
any power common to them and each of the parties hereto have the
power and authority to regulate adult entertainment establishments
and sexually oriented businesses; and
WHEREAS, this Agreement is authorized by the provisions of
Chapters 125, 163 and 166, Florida Statutes, and other applicable
law,
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, mutual
covenants, and agreements and promises contained herein. and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which is hereby acknowledged by the parties, the parties do hereby
covenant and agree as follows:
SECTION 1. RECITALS. The foregoing recitals are true and
correct and form a material part of this Agreement upon which the
parties have relied.
SECTION 2. PURPOSE/INTENT/JOINT PLANNING AREA.
(a) The COUNTY and the CITY have reviewed their respective
comprehensive plans and land development regulations relative to
the provision of adequate alternative avenues or channels of
communication or expression with regard to siting adult or sexually
oriented uses in their respective jurisdictions. It was found by
both parties that, at the time of this Agreement, their comprehen-
sive plans, codes and ordinances and land development regulations
are consistent with the requirements of law as set forth in
authoritative judicial precedent. It was also found, however, that
it would be in the best interests of both jurisdictions to provide
for a number of adult and sexually oriented business use sites that
are available for both jurisdictions and to be developed with adult
and sexually oriented uses in both the COUNTY and the CITY
regardless of the actual jurisdictional location of the sites.
(b) The purpose of this Agreement is to provide for multi-
jurisdictional Siting of adult and sexually oriented land uses with
sites that are part of the relevant real estate market and to,
thereby, be compliant with the requirements of law relative to
protection of what may be constitutionally protected expression as
determined by the courts of this Nation. Likewise, the purpose of
this Agreement is to provide for the seamless movement of adult and
sexually oriented use sites from unincorporated Seminole County
5
into the jurisdictional limits of the CITY without the COUNTY's
available sites being reduced in number as a result of such change
in land use jurisdiction.
SECTION 3. JOINT SITES.
(a) The real property pertinent to this Agreement are those
lots, tracts or parcels of real property located in either the CITY
or the COUNTY and, consistent with the appropriate party's land
development regulations, permittable for adult and sexually
oriented uses (hereby designated as the "Joint Sites" and be
referred to as such herein
(b) The Joint Sites shall be eligible for the issuance of
development permits consistent with the comprehensive plan and land
development regulations of the jurisdiction wherein the Sites are
located; provided, however, that, if a Site is annexed into the
CITY, it shall be subject to the comprehensive plan and land
development regulations of the COUNTY.
(c) It is the intent of the parties to renegotiate the terms
of this Agreement if those sites that are part of the Joint Sites,
but which are currently located within unincorporated Seminole
County, are annexed into the CITY. It is the intent of the CITY to
not annex said'sites.
(d) It is also the intent of the parties that another city or
cities may participate in the benefits and burdens of this
Agreement.
SECTION 4. COMPREHENSIVE PLANNING, FUTURE LAND USES AND
PROVISION OF INFRASTRUCTURE.
(a) The parties agree that the Joint Sites may be developed
in accordance with generally applicable land development regula-
tions (CITY or COUNTY as the case may be based upon the location of
the real property consistent, however, with Section 3(b)) as adult
entertainment establishments or a sexually oriented business, as
defined by Ordinance Number 97-28, as amended by Ordinance Number
98-2.
(b) The parties agree to cooperate and collaborate to the
maximum extent practicable to ensure that adequate infrastructure
is available to the Joint Sites in order to ensure that the Joint
Sites are included in the relevant real estate market applicable to
the permitted uses on the Joint Sites subject, however, to the
obligations of a developer under State law (and applicable local
codes and ordinances) to provide for adequate public facility
infrastructure. It is the intent of the parties to treat develop-
ers of adult and sexually oriented uses in a way, fashion and
manner; under such terms and conditions; and with such practices
and procedures that are typical and normal to development review
and approval processes made applicable to other forms of develop-
ment. Locational decisions aside relative to land use designations
and zoning classifications assigned to particular parcels of
property, it is the intent of the parties to allow for the
permitting and approval of adult and sexually oriented uses
consistent with the practices and procedures that are applicable to
other forms and types of development.
(c) With regard to any proposed amendment to either the
comprehensive plan or the land development regulations of the
parties which pertains to adult and sexually oriented uses and
during the development and drafting phases of the respective
comprehensive plans, plan amendments and land development regula-
tions of the CITY and the COUNTY, CITY and COUNTY staff shall
transmit respective draft planning or regulation documents to the
other as part of the intergovernmental coordination mechanisms.
Each staff shall compare each other's plan or plan amendments to
determine whether proposed objectives, goal~ and policies and
regulatory provisions are consistent with the other party's plan
and regulatory provisions.
(d) Notwithstanding the legal effect of annexations, the
adult and sexually oriented use sites located in the CITY shall
continue to be deemed and constitute Joint Sites and shall be
subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 5. CONFLICT RESOLUTION. The parties agree that any
disputes arising under this Agreement shall be subject to the
provisions of the "Interlocal Agreement on Mediation and Intergov-
ernmental Coordination", dated January 24, 1995.
SECTION 6. TERM. This Agreement shall be in effect for a
five {5) year period beginning on the date both parties have
enacted ordinances in accordance with Section 12. This Agreement
shall be automatically renewed for a subsequent five (5) year
8
period unless one (1) of the parties thereto gives the other ninety
(90) days advance notice, in writing, of intention to not renew the
Agreement.

ECONOMIC IAAPACT 5TATEAAENT
DATE: March 10, 1998 DEPT./DIVISION: OMB
CONTACT PERSON: Cindy Manoni EXTENSION: X7172
DESCRIBE PROJECT/PROPOSAL:
This Ordinance adopts into the Land Development Code the inter-local agreement
between the City of Sanford and Seminole County which relates to providing multi-
jurisdictional siting of adult and sexually oriented land uses. It specifies that the
issuance of development permits for a site remain consistent with the regulations
adopted by the jurisdiction where the site was physically located at the time of adoption
of this Ordinance, regardless of any subsequent annexations. The County and City will
coordinate review of each other's plan or land development amendments to ensure
consistency.
DESCRIBE THE DIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT OF THE PROJECT/PROPOSAL
UPON THE OPERATION OF THE COUNTY:
The impact on County staff will be minimal in that it will continue to review development
within the unincorporated area. In fact, by duplicating permitted adult establishment
sites, both City and County staff could have fewer developments overall to review.
County staff is already investing considerable work effort with regard to adult use
issues.
The need to review the City's Comprehensive Plan and land development regulations
will require some time commitment by County staff. However, efforts may not
significantly exceed the time currently allotted to the review of neighboring jurisdictions'
regulations for the purposes of intergovernmental coordination.
DESCRIBE THE DIRECT ECONOI~ilC IMPACT OF THE PROJECT/PROPOSAL
UPON THE PROPERTY OWNERS/TAX PAYERS/CITIZENS WHO ARE EXPECTED
TO BE AFFECTED:
The impact to potential developers ot~adult entertainment establishments and sexually
oriented businesses could be negative since fewer adult sites may be available as
opposed to the two jurisdictions making available two totally disparate sets of sites.
The economic impact to potential non-adult businesses and surrounding neighborhoods
will be positive since there could be fewer adult businesses which generally erode
property values.
IDENTIFY ANY POTENTIAL INDIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACTS, POSITIVE OR
NEGATIVE WHICH MIGHT OCCUR AS A RESULT OF THE PROJECT PROPOSAL:
The economic impact to the County as a whole will be positive. There will be a reduced
potential for the spread of adult entertainment industry in Seminole County which will
improve the County's image, its ability to attract viable new businesses and tourists,
and its property tax base.
SECTION 1. ADOPTION OFINTERLOCAL AGREEMENT AS LAND DEVELOP-
MENT REGULATIONS:
(a) The Interlocal Agreement entitled "Seminole County/City
of Sanford Joint Planning Interlocal Agreement Relating To Adult or
Sexually Oriented Uses" and dated March 23, 1998 is hereby adopted
as land development regulations applicable within the unincorporat-
ed areas of Seminole County.
(b) The terms, provisions, conditions and procedures set
forth in the Interlocal Agreement referred to in Section l(a) shall
be administered in accordance with the terms, provisions, condi-
tions and procedures of the Land Development Code of Seminole
County.
SECTION 2. CODIFICATION/LEGISLATIVE FINDINGS. It is the
intention of the Board of County Commissioners that the provisions
of this Ordinance and the Interlocal Agreement referred to in
Section l(a) of this Ordinance shall be codified and shall become
and be made a part of the Land Development Code of Seminole County,
Florida and the word "ordinance" may be changed to "section,"
"article," or other appropriate word or phase and the sections of
this Ordinance may be renumbered or relettered to accomplish such
intention; provided, however, that the legislative findings set
forth i~ the recitals to this Ordinance and Sections 2, 3, and
shall not be codified. The recitals set forth in the Interlocal
Agreement referred to in Section l(c) are hereby adopted as
legislative findings.

SECTION 3. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Ordinance

provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this
