SUBMITTED BY: Norton N. Bonaparte, Jr., ICMA-CM, City Jannexion.rvz
SUBJECT: Hold a Public Hearing to consider a rezonees totaling 37.03
acres in order to assign a City zoning classilent to those in
unincorporated Seminole County at time of
STRATEGIC PRIORITIES:

❑ Promote the City's Distinct Culture

SYNOPSIS:
Adoption of Ordinance No. 4708, to update the Citywide Zoning Map Amendments of 2022, is
requested.
FISCAL/STAFFING STATEMENT:
There are no fiscal or staffing issues impacted by the approval of the proposed Ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
In conjunction with the Citywide Future Land Use update, this request is intended to assign the
City of Sanford zoning classifications to 30 individual parcels totaling 37.03 acres. This rezone
action brings the properties in compliance with the 2015 City of Sanford/Seminole County Joint
Planning Agreement (JPA), and state statutes. The list of properties identified were annexed
between September of 2020 and May of 2022 and will have the equivalent zoning designations in
the City as in the County with the exception of 2526 Old Lake Mary Road, which is being amended
to align with the use on the property. The impacts of development on public facilities and service
have already been accounted for in the County for all amendments due to annexations.
The property located at 2526 Old Lake Mary Road contains a 610 -square -foot former single-family
residence which is being utilized as an office to run commercial business. Further, the property is
adjacent to GC, General Commercial to the east and west. The requested GC land use is more
consistent with the current use of the property and the surrounding land uses.
LEGAL REVIEW:
The City Attorney may or may not have reviewed the staff report and the specific analysis provided
by City staff, but has noted the following that should be adhered to in all quasi-judicial decisions.
Section 166.03 3, Florida Statutes, as amended in the 2022 Legislative Session, in Chapter 2021-
224, Laws of Florida (deriving from Committee Substitute for Committee Substitute for House
Bill Number 1059) provides as follows (please note emphasized text):
"166.033 Development permits and orders.—
(1) Within 30 days after receiving an application for approval of a development permit or
development order, a municipality must review the application for completeness and issue a letter
indicating that all required information is submitted or specifying with particularity any areas that
are deficient. If the application is deficient, the applicant has 30 days to address the deficiencies
by submitting the required additional information. Within 120 days after the municipality has
deemed the application complete, or 180 days for applications that require final action through a
quasi-judicial hearing or a public hearing, the municipality must approve, approve with
conditions, or deny the application for a development permit or development order. Both
parties may agree to a reasonable request for an extension of time, particularly in the event of a
force majeure or other extraordinary circumstance. An approval, approval with conditions, or
denial of the application for a development permit or development order must include written
findings supporting the municipality's decision. The timeframes contained in this subsection do
not apply in an area of critical state concern, as designated in s. 380.0552 or chapter 28-36, Florida
Administrative Code.
(2)(a) When reviewinIZ an application for a development permit or development order that
is certified by a professional listed in s. 403.0877, a municipality may not request additional
information from the applicant more than three times, unless the applicant waives the
limitation in writing.
(b) If a municipality makes a request for additional information and the applicant submits the
required additional information within 30 days after receiving the request, the municipality must
review the application for completeness and issue a letter indicating that all required information
has been submitted or specify with particularity any areas that are deficient within 30 days after
receiving the additional information.
(c) If a municipality makes a second request for additional information and the applicant submits
the required additional information within 30 days after receiving the request, the municipality
must review the application for completeness and issue a letter indicating that all required
information has been submitted or specify with particularity any areas that are deficient within 10
days after receiving the additional information.
(d) Before a third request for additional information, the applicant must be offered a meeting to
attempt to resolve outstanding issues. If a municipality makes a third request for additional
information and the applicant submits the required additional information within 30 days after
receiving the request, the municipality must deem the application complete within 10 days after
receiving the additional information or proceed to process the application for approval or denial
unless the applicant waived the municipality's limitation in writing as described in paragraph (a).
(e) Except as provided in subsection (5), if the applicant believes the request for additional
information is not authorized by ordinance, rule, statute, or other legal authority, the municipality,
at the applicant's request, shall proceed to process the application for approval or denial.
(3) When a municipality denies an application for a development permit or development
order, the municipality shall give written notice to the applicant. The notice must include a
citation to the applicable portions of an ordinance, rule, statute, or other legal authority for
the denial of the permit or order.
(4) As used in this section, the terms "development permit" and "development order" have the
same meaning as in s. 163.3164, but do not include building permits.
(5) For any development permit application filed with the municipality after July 1, 2012, a
municipality may not require as a condition of processing or issuinIz a development permit
or development order that an applicant obtain a permit or approval from any state or federal
agency unless the agency has issued a final agency action that denies the federal or state
permit before the municipal action on the local development permit.
(6) Issuance of a development permit or development order by a municipality does not create
any right on the part of an applicant to obtain a permit from a state or federal agency and does not
create any liability on the part of the municipality for issuance of the permit if the applicant fails
to obtain requisite approvals or fulfill the obligations imposed by a state or federal agency or
undertakes actions that result in a violation of state or federal law. A municipality shall attach such
a disclaimer to the issuance of development permits and shall include a permit condition that all
other applicable state or federal permits be obtained before commencement of the development.
(7) This section does not prohibit a municipality from providing information to an applicant
regarding what other state or federal permits may apply."
The above -referenced definition of the term "development permit" is as follows:
"(16) 'Development permit' includes any building permit, zoning permit, subdivision approval,
rezoning, certification, special exception, variance, or any other official action of local government
having the effect of permitting the development of land." (Section 163.3164(16), Florida Statutes).
The term "development order" is defined as follows and, as can be seen, refers to the "granting,
denying, or granting with conditions [ofJ an application":
"(15) `Development order' means any order granting, denying, or granting with conditions an
application for a development permit." (Section 163.3164(15), Florida Statutes).
Thus, if this application is denied, a denial development order must be issued which must cite to
the applicable portions of each ordinance, rule, statute or other legal authority supporting the denial
of the application. For example, if a goal, objective or policy of the Sanford Comprehensive Plan
were to be the basis for a denial, then such goal, objective or policy must be part of the motion
proposing the denial. A denial development order would be drafted to implement the actions of
the City Commission in the event of such occurrence. Accordingly, any motion to deny must state,
with particularity, the basis for the proposed denial.
The City Commission has also expressed its desire for all who vote against the majority decision
to express the rationale for their vote with regard to all matters.
When voting on matters such as whether to recommend approval of an amendment to the City's
Comprehensive Plan or the enactment of, or amendment to, a land development regulation, those
matters are legislative in nature and not quasi-judicial matters.
The City Commission approved the first reading of Ordinance No. 4708 on August 22, 2022.
The City Clerk published notice of the 2"1 Public Hearing in the Sanford Herald on August 28,
2022.
