Florida Senate - 2006 COMMITTEE AMENDMENT Bill No. CS for SB 2216 Barcode 733682 1 range of economic and tax incentives available to facilitate 2 and promote redevelopment and revitalization within the pilot 3 project areas. 4 (c) The Office of the Governor, Department of 5 Environmental Protection, and the Department of Community 6 Affairs are directed to provide technical assistance to 7 expedite permitting for redevelopment projects and 8 construction activities within the pilot project areas 9 consistent with the principles, processes, and timeframes 10 provided in s. 403.973. 11 (d) The Department of Environmental Protection shall 12 exempt construction activities within the pilot project area 13 in locations seaward of a coastal construction control line 14 and landward of existing armoring from certain siting and 15 design criteria pursuant to s. 161.053. However, such 16 exemption shall not be deemed to exempt property within the 17 pilot project area from applicable local land development 18 regulations, including but not limited to, setback, side lot 19 line, and lot coverage requirements. Such exemption shall 20 apply to construction and redevelopment of structures 21 involving the coverage, excavation, and impervious surface 22 criteria of s. 161.053, and related adopted rules, as follows: 23 1. This review by the department of applications for 24 permits for coastal construction within the pilot project area 25 must apply to construction and redevelopment of structures 26 subject to the coverage, excavation, and impervious surface 27 criteria of s. 161.053, and related adopted rules. It is the 28 intent of these provisions that the pilot project area be 29 enabled to redevelop in a manner which meets the economic 30 needs of the area while preserving public safety and existing 31 resources, including natural resources. 2 9:33 AM 04/18/06 s2216c1c-ri08-c3r
Florida Senate - 2006 COMMITTEE AMENDMENT Bill No. CS for SB 2216 Barcode 733682 1 2. The criteria for review under s. 161.053 are 2 applicable within the pilot project area, except that the 3 structures within the pilot project area shall not be subject 4 to specific shore parallel coverage requirements and are 5 allowed to exceed the 50 percent impervious surface 6 requirement. In no case shall stormwater discharge be allowed 7 onto, or seaward of, the frontal dune. Structures are also not 8 bound by the restrictions on excavation unless the 9 construction will adversely affect the integrity of the 10 existing seawall or rigid coastal armoring structure or 11 stability of the existing beach and dune system. It is 12 specifically contemplated that underground structures, 13 including garages, will be permitted. All beach-compatible 14 material excavated under this subparagraph must be maintained 15 on site seaward of the coastal construction control line. 16 However, during the permit-review process, pursuant to s. 17 161.053, the department may favorably consider authorized sand 18 placement on adjacent properties if the permittee has 19 demonstrated every reasonable effort to effectively use all 20 beach-quality material on site to enhance the beach and dune 21 system, and has prepared a comprehensive plan for beach and 22 dune nourishment for the adjoining area. 23 3. The review criteria in subparagraph 2. will apply 24 to all construction within the pilot project area lying 25 seaward of the coastal construction control line and landward 26 of an existing viable seawall or rigid coastal armoring 27 structure, if such construction is fronted by a seawall or 28 rigid coastal armoring structure extending at least 1,000 feet 29 without any interruptions other than beach access points. For 30 purposes of this section, a viable seawall or rigid coastal 31 armoring structure is a structure that has not deteriorated, 3 9:33 AM 04/18/06 s2216c1c-ri08-c3r

The top must be at or above the still water level, 6 including setup, for the design storm of 30-year return storm 7 plus the breaking wave calculated at its highest achievable 8 level based on the maximum eroded beach profile and highest 9 surge level combination, and must be high enough to preclude 10 runup overtopping; 11 b. The armoring must be stable under the design storm 12 of 30-year return storm, including maximum localized scour, 13 with adequate penetration; and 14 c. The armoring must have sufficient continuity or 15 return walls to prevent flooding under the design storm of 16 30-year return storm from impacting the proposed construction. 17 4. Where there exists a continuous line of rigid 18 coastal armoring structure on either side of unarmored 19 property and the adjacent line of rigid coastal armoring 20 structures are having an adverse effect on or threaten the 21 unarmored property, and the gap does not exceed 100 feet, the 22 department may grant the necessary permits under s. 161.085 to 23 close the gap. 24 5. Structures approved pursuant to this section shall 25 not cause flooding of or result in adverse impacts to existing 26 upland structures or properties and shall comply with all 27 other requirements of s. 161.053 and its implementing rules. 28 6. Where there exists a continuous line of viable 29 rigid coastal armoring structure on either side of a nonviable 30 rigid coastal armoring structure, the department shall grant 31 the necessary permits under s. 161.085 to replace such 4 9:33 AM 04/18/06 s2216c1c-ri08-c3r

This 3 shall not apply to rigid coastal armoring structures 4 constructed after May 1, 1998, unless such structures have 5 been permitted pursuant to s. 161.085(2). 6 (3) PILOT PROJECT EXPIRATION.--The authorization for 7 the pilot project and the provisions of this section expire 8 December 31, 2014 2006. The department and affected local 9 governments shall provide for an independent analysis of the 10 economic value and environmental impact of the pilot project 11 and provide a report to the Legislature on or before February 12 1, 2008. The Legislature shall review these requirements 13 before their scheduled expiration. 14 15 (Redesignate subsequent sections.) 16 17 18 ================ T I T L E A M E N D M E N T =============== 19 And the title is amended as follows: 20 On page 22, line 31, following the semicolon 21 22 insert: 23 amending s. 163.336, F.S.; revising the 24 requirements for the placement of 25 beach-compatible material that is excavated 26 during the coastal resort area redevelopment 27 pilot project; extending the expiration date of 28 the pilot project; requiring a report; 29 30 31 5 9:33 AM 04/18/06 s2216c1c-ri08-c3r
