3     Amendment (with title amendment)
4     Remove everything after the enacting clause and insert:
5     Section 1.  Subsection (5) of section 163.3162, Florida
6Statutes, is amended to read:
7     163.3162  Agricultural Lands and Practices Act.--
8     (5)  AMENDMENT TO LOCAL GOVERNMENT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN.--The
9owner of a parcel of land defined as an agricultural enclave
10under s. 163.3164(33) may apply for an amendment to the local
11government comprehensive plan pursuant to s. 163.3187. Such
12amendment is presumed to be consistent with rule 9J-5.006(5),
13Florida Administrative Code, and may include land uses,
14densities, and intensities of use that are consistent with the
15uses, densities, and intensities of use of the industrial,
16commercial, or residential areas that surround the parcel. This
17presumption may be rebutted by clear and convincing evidence.
18Each application for a comprehensive plan amendment under this
19subsection for a parcel larger than 640 acres must include
20appropriate new urbanism concepts such as clustering, mixed-use
21development, the creation of rural village and city centers, and
22the transfer of development rights in order to discourage urban
23sprawl while protecting landowner rights. Notwithstanding the
24provisions of a comprehensive plan, the local government may not
25prohibit land uses, densities, and intensities of use that are
26consistent with the uses, densities, and intensities of use of
27the industrial, commercial, or residential areas that surround
28the parcel. Densities and intensities of use for an agricultural
29enclave shall, at minimum, be calculated as the average density
30or intensity of uses within 3 miles of the perimeter of the
31parcel. If a local government imposes development conditions
32that prevent the owner from achieving consistent densities and
33intensities of use pursuant to this subsection, the owner may
34apply to the circuit court for appropriate relief pursuant to s.
3570.001 after presenting a claim to the local government as set
36forth in s. 70.001(4)(a). The imposition of such conditions is
37presumed to impose an inordinate burden. This presumption may be
38rebutted by clear and convincing evidence.
39     (a)  The local government and the owner of a parcel of land
40that is the subject of an application for an amendment shall
41have 180 days following the date that the local government
42receives a complete application to negotiate in good faith to
43reach consensus on the land uses, densities, and intensities of
44use that are consistent with the uses, densities, and
45intensities of use of the industrial, commercial, or residential
46areas that surround the parcel. Within 30 days after the local
47government's receipt of such an application, the local
48government and owner must agree in writing to a schedule for
49information submittal, public hearings, negotiations, and final
50action on the amendment, which schedule may thereafter be
51altered only with the written consent of the local government
52and the owner. Compliance with the schedule in the written
53agreement constitutes good faith negotiations for purposes of
54paragraph (d) (c).
55     (b)  Upon conclusion of good faith negotiations under
56paragraph (a), regardless of whether the local government and
57owner reach consensus on the land uses, densities, and
58intensities of use that are consistent with the uses, densities,
59and intensities of use of the industrial, commercial, or
60residential areas that surround the parcel, the amendment must
61be transmitted to the state land planning agency for review
62pursuant to s. 163.3184. If the local government fails to
63transmit the amendment within 180 days after receipt of a
64complete application, the amendment must be immediately
65transferred to the state land planning agency for such review at
66the first available transmittal cycle. A plan amendment
67transmitted to the state land planning agency submitted under
68this subsection is presumed to be consistent with rule 9J-
695.006(5), Florida Administrative Code. This presumption may be
70rebutted by clear and convincing evidence.
71     (c)  Notwithstanding the provisions of a comprehensive
72plan, after review by the state land planning agency, the owner
73shall respond to any objections, recommendations, or comments
74issued by the agency pursuant to s. 163.3184(6) and address each
75compliance issue raised by the state land planning agency
76related to the owner's property. If the department has issued no
77objections, recommendations, or comments, or if the owner has
78responded to any objections, recommendations, or comments and
79the local government denies or fails to approve the amendment
80within the time period specified in s. 163.3184(7), such denial
81or failure to approve the amendment is presumed to impose an
82inordinate burden, and the owner may apply to the circuit court
83for appropriate relief pursuant to s. 70.001 after presenting a
84claim to the local government as set forth in s. 70.001(4)(a). A
85plan amendment reviewed by the land planning agency under this
86subsection is presumed to be consistent with the provisions of
87rule 9J-5.006(5), Florida Administrative Code. This presumption
88may be rebutted by clear and convincing evidence.
89     (d)(c)  If the owner fails to negotiate in good faith, a
90plan amendment submitted under this subsection is not entitled
91to the rebuttable presumption under this subsection in the
92negotiation and amendment process.
93     (e)(d)  Nothing within this subsection relating to
94agricultural enclaves shall preempt or replace any protection
95currently existing for any property located within the
96boundaries of the following areas:
97     1.  The Wekiva Study Area, as described in s. 369.316; or
98     2.  The Everglades Protection Area, as defined in s.
99373.4592(2).
100     3.  Those zones, areas or programs managed or administered
101by the United States Department of Defense as defined pursuant
102to ss. 163.3175(a) and (b), 163.3191(2)(n) and 163.3177(6)(a),
103F.S.
104     (f)  For concurrency purposes, agricultural enclaves shall
105be treated as any previously approved development surrounding
106the agricultural enclave has been treated and calculated as the
107average concurrency requirements within 3 miles of the perimeter
108of the parcel.
109     Section 2.  Paragraph (d) of subsection (33) of section
110163.3164, Florida Statutes, is amended to read:
111     163.3164  Local Government Comprehensive Planning and Land
112Development Regulation Act; definitions.--As used in this act:
113     (33)  "Agricultural enclave" means an unincorporated,
114undeveloped parcel that:
115     (d)  Has public services, including water, wastewater,
116transportation, schools, and recreation facilities, available or
117such public services are scheduled in the capital improvement
118element to be provided by the local government or can be
119provided by an alternative provider of local government
120infrastructure in order to ensure consistency with applicable
121concurrency provisions of s. 163.3180; and
122     Section 3.  Subsections (6) and (7) of section 163.3245,
123Florida Statutes, are renumbered as subsections (7) and (8),
124respectively, and a new subsection (6) is added to that section
125to read:
126     163.3245  Optional sector plans.--
127     (6)  If an application for development approval or an
128application for a comprehensive plan amendment pursuant to this
129part has been filed and is pending prior to the effective date
130of a sector plan, the application shall only be required to
131comply with the provisions of a subsequently adopted sector plan
132upon written consent of the applicant. This subsection applies
133to all applications within a sector planning area pending before
134a local government on or before December 31, 2007.
135     Section 4.  This act shall take effect July 1, 2008.
