'I'bis Appears to bean extdnsiva undertaking by the Village. T r~eougnere thm the Village needs this proposal by S:DOpm Febnmry 3, 2000. I had an opportunity to diiscuss the Zoni;pg Code update brier8y with Kara Irwin, Villagte P1Anne~. The followigg proposal is based on the t~ecently obtained information and my limited discussions writh village staff. The estimate far prePering the Zoning Code revisions ax-d updates is S 1A,000, Pius ~90/hr for meeting attendance and presegtation of enatetials to the X.oce1 Plaguing Agency (),pp? ~d village Council; and, reimbur'scmestt for out-of-pocltez expenses and milea~g~. ARer reviewing ikar list of proposed zpnittg revisions and apdates, I Seel there is A major item e»issing f3om the list. I would strongly t'ecommend that reviaioro ideaitified in the Goals, Objectives Aed policies • of the BAR based Comprehensive Plan be ineorpcuatod into this Zoning Code update. The Village recently undercook a leggthy and ovrnplex proooso to update and adopt the EAR..b;sed enusive Plan. Florida plar-nittg taw requires that your lagd davelopntent regulations ~ "~vltich includes the Village Zoning Code, be consistent vvsih the C~sive Plan. Althoggh this wotild require addifioas! time er~d efiFo[t, I fool it would be more cost-etliciem for the Village i,a the lass rwt. This mart will require an additional 55,000 to coq~plete. Timefrnme8 a,rtd number of mbetings will be)argoly dependem on the ultimate tlirocxion of the Village. If the Village Attorney determines that the Council must also act as the I.,PA to satisfy Florida planning law requiretnonis, tlnrrt the number of m~oetings rw-71 double. Considering thin, my estimated timeline for a>~tipletion of the etuin-e process is tlse end of this fiscal year. JLH Associates has worked consistontiq with the Village since 1983; whiecl~ has included the preparation of tht Comprehensive Plan, as well as the Zoning Regulrctivns and other L,UR's. JLi~ .ABgoCirxtes feels rt is uniquely quali>7ed to prepare the Zoning Code update because it has an intimate knowledge of t~ Vi1(age of TequasRa Ccxiuprehensiva Man and most t+ocem EA,R-based amendnie~ats, a~s~uing the appropriate Cuotdinatian.between the ptax~ping and zoning doq~rnents.
