Plan Update
Thank you for your interest in the Monroe County Comprehensive Plan Update. We have completed Phase 1 of the four-phased project - - the Technical Document. The Technical Document provides data and analysis of the population, physical environment, and infrastructure improvements and future needs in the Florida Keys. The Technical Document is posted on this website, along with the Comment Response Forms located at the end of each element. You may view the Technical Document by clicking here.
The Technical Document will be discussed at the Monroe County Planning Commission meeting on January 12, 2011 and at the Board of County Commissioners Meeting on January 19, 2011.
May 22, 2012 BOCC Meeting
Monroe County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) will hold a Public Hearing on May 22, 2012, at 10:00am or as soon thereafter as may be heard, at the Harvey Government Center, 1200 Truman Avenue, Key West to consider the adoption of the final Evaluation and Appraisal Report.
After review by the Planning Commission and the BOCC during public meetings held in November 2011, February 2012 and March 2012, the final Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) has now been completed. The EAR is a document that serves as a “report card” of the existing Comprehensive Plan by evaluating the existing goals, objectives and policies (GOPs) to determine their effectiveness in balancing growth, preserving natural resources; achieving water quality improvements; meeting hurricane evacuation requirements, and complying with State regulations.
The final EAR document contains the following information: Introduction, Chapter 1-Public Involvement Process, Chapter 2-Community-Wide Assessment, Chapter 3-Assessment of Comprehensive Plan Elements, Chapter 4-Major Issues Analysis, Chapter 5-Special Topics, and Chapter 6-Assessment of Changes to Florida Statutes.
