COMPLAINT

1 The circuit court has jurisdiction in this statutory cause under

Florida Statute 1633215 2009Comp Plan Consistency actions and

Florida Statutes 860112009 Declaratory Judgment actions

2 Plaintiffs seek de novo review and a judgment declaring that

the Settlement Agreement purporting to approve a development on the

subject property is inconsistent with the City of Dunnellon Comprehensive

Plan

Page 6: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

3 As set forth in the attached letter dated March 19 2010 faxed to

to the City of Dunnellon by the state land planning agency the State of

Florida Department of Community Affairs DCA the development order

purporting to approve development as part of a Bert J Harris Settlement

Agreement is inconsistent with the City of Dunnellon Comprehensive

Plan Exhibit A March 19 2010 letter from DCA

4 Plaintiffs own or reside on property that is adjacent nearby or

very proximate to the subject development Exhibit B Aerial Map of

Plaintiffs properties

5 At their evening meeting on March 19 2010 the City of

Dunnellon City Commission approved the subject development on the

Rainbow River Exhibit C Signed Settlement Agreement

6 The subject lands were the subject of a remedial plan

amendment adopted after a 2001 stipulated settlement agreement with the

state land planning agency DCA resulting in site specific land use

designations applicable to subject property in the Comprehensive Plan

Future Land Use Element and Future Land Use Map FLUM

7 The subject development order is inconsistent with the City of

Dunnellon Comprehensive Plan including densities intensities and

development allowed by the current approved land use designations

Page 7: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

8 A remedial plan amendment in 2001 designated a portion of the

Property adjacent to County Road 484 Commercial and Residential Medium

Density but designated approximately half of the Property near the Rainbow

River as Agriculture and Conservation

9 The new subject settlement agreement with the City which

would authorize 349 dwelling units and 100000 square feet of commercial

with an additional 101 units and 25000 square feet ofcommercial that might

be constructed at some unspecified site is clearly not consistent with the

Citys Comprehensive Plan

10 Paragraph 4b of the settlement agreement states that the

Property is vested for the Mixed Use land use designation

11 The Property has never been designated for Mixed Use under

the Dunnellon Comprehensive Plan

12 The City adopted Mixed Use for the Property in 1996 but the

state land planning agency DCA found that plan amendment not in

compliance and the Mixed Use designation never became effective

13 The notin compliance determination was resolved by a

remedial plan amendment in 2001 which designated land use only a

portion of the Property adjacent to County Road 484 Commercial and

Residential Medium Density but designated approximately half of the

3

Page 8: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

Property near the Rainbow River as Agriculture and Conservation The new

subject settlement agreement with the City is inconsistent with the remedial

amendments contained in the prior settlement agreement with DCA

14 The present land use designationsof the Property allow one

dwelling unit per ten acres or one per five with clustering

15 The Settlement Agreement violates constitutional prohibitions

on contract zoning because it fails to merely agree to consider and process

land use amendments and rezonings and actually purports to approve these

development that is not consistent with the existing comprehensive plan

land use designations and zoning on the property and avoid both procedural

and substantive requirements prior to approving the development on the

subject property

15 The remedial amendment was accompanied by an Agreement

Limiting Development executed by the owner of the Property that specified

that the total number of units on the portion designated as Agriculture would

be no more than 30

16 Importantly the development was directed away from the

Rainbow River

17 The proposed plat attached to the pending settlement agreement

shows many more than 30 dwelling units in the area designated as

4

Page 9: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

Agriculture and shows additional dwelling units in the area designated as

Conservation under the 2001 remedial amendment

19 The settlement agreement proposes to approve increased units

near the Rainbow River without a plan amendment in violation of the

Agreement Limiting Development and in violation of the overall 2001

settlement agreement with the Department

20 Paragraph 4b of the settlement agreement purports to amend

Objective 1 Policy 16 of the Future Land Use Element

21 It is not possible for the City to amend its Comprehensive Plan

in the agreement

22 The only way that the Comprehensive Plan can be amended is

by adoption of a plan amendment under the procedure in section 1633184

Florida Statutes

23 This attempt to amend the Comprehensive Plan by agreement is

invalid

24 Paragraph 19 of the settlement agreement mentions changing

the land use designations of the Property by the Property Appraiser for ad

valorum tax purposesie a different constitutional officer with a different

statute and different purpose than Florida Statute Chapter 163 land use plan

designations that must be reviewed and approved by DCA as the state land

5

Page 10: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

planning agency It is not clear whether this means changes to the land use

designations on the future land use map of the Comprehensive Plan but if

that is intended then such changes also cannot be accomplished in an

agreement

25 The only way that the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use

Map and land use designation can be amended is by adoption of a plan

amendment under the procedure in section 1633184 Florida Statutes

26 Paragraph 20 of the settlement agreement states that In the

event of a conflict between this Agreement the CitysComprehensive Plan

or Land Development Regulations or other rules or ordinances this

Agreement shall prevail This is clearly incorrect as a matter of law

This attempt to amend the Comprehensive Plan by agreement denies

the citizens of Dunnellon and affected parties including the County and

State the statutory notice public hearings and right to request formal

administrative hearings required by Florida Statutes 1633184

Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Florida Statutes Chapter 120

FloridasAdministrative Procedures Act

27 All development and all development orders must be consistent

with the Comprehensive Plan Section 1633194 Florida Statutes

Page 11: Rainbow River Conservation Lawsuit 04/20/2010s3.amazonaws.com/files.inetusa.com/616/megafiles... · RAINBOW RIVER CONSERVATION INC a Florida Corporation and FREDERICK S JOHNSTON

28 Florida Statute 1633215 creates a statutory cause of action to

seek de novo action in circuit court on the issue of whether a development

order is inconsistent with an adopted Comprehensive Plan29 The proposed settlement agreement is based on the Bert Harris

Act The Bert Harris Act does not override the provisions of the Growth

Management Act To the contrary Section 1633211 of the Growth

Management Act provides

1633211 Conflict with other statutes Where this act may be inconflict with any other provision or provisions of law relating to localgovernments having authority to regulate the development of land theprovisions ofthis act shall govern unless the provisions ofthis act aremet or exceeded by such other provision or provisions of law relatingto local government including land development regulations adoptedpursuant to chapter 125 or chapter 166

30 The failure to first submit and obtain approval from the state

land planning agency State of Florida Department of Community Affairs

for a Comprehensive Plan Amendment before approving the inconsistent

Development Order also violates mandated statutory review procedures for

Comprehensive Plan Amendments required under Florida Statutes

16331843

31 Under Florida Statutes 1633184 review by the state of

Florida Department of Community Affairs DCA is undertaken to ensure

that the Plan Amendment is consistent with State Plan Regional Plans and

7

Florida Administrative Code Rule 9J5 and is internally consistent with the

City of Dunnellon Comprehensive Plan

32 Failure to obtain approval of a plan amendment prior to

approval of development that is not consistent with the Comprehensive Plan

violates state law including 1633184

STATUTORY STANDING

33 Plaintiffs have statutory standing under 1633215 Florida

Statutes to seek review of Comprehensive Plan consistency

34 Plaintiffs will suffer adverse effects to interests protected or

furthered by the local government comprehensive plan that exceeds in

degree the general interest in community good shared by all persons35 Plaintiffs own or reside on property that is adjacent nearby or

very proximate to the subject development See Exhibit B Aerial Map of

Plaintiffs properties Plaintiffs utilize the Rainbow River adjacent to this

particular subject parcel for their own individual recreational activities

including for example tubing canoeing kayaking boating fishing wildlife

observation and bird watching These experiences will be diminished and

affected by the proposed development that is inconsistent with the

Comprehensive Plan

36 The inconsistent proposed development activities would

increase the number ofhouses structures impervious surface and increased

demands created by additional dwelling units and people in the area and

accordingly increase demands relating to public services evacuation

roadway traffic boating traffic and infrastructure and the loss of additional

tree canopy riverine wildlife corridor forest frontage on the Rainbow River

37 Plaintiffs will also suffer adverse effects to interests protected

or furthered by the adopted Plan as amended including but not limited to

density intensity and lands along the Rainbow River designated as

conservation which affect their individual property interests their interest in

protecting and maintaining the natural resources ofthe Rainbow River their

interest in protecting wildlife and bird corridor along the riverbanks their

38 Plaintiffs would be harmed to a degree that exceeds the harm

caused to the public in general due to their proximity to the development

her location in the same floodplain and river corridor and their active use of

the roads and streets

39 Given Plaintiffs proximity to the project and given their use of

the same water system roadway system river and sewer system Plaintiffs

will suffer harm to a greater degree than that ofthe public in general

40 Plaintiffs will also be harmed to a degree that exceeds the

harm caused to the public in general because of their participation in the

local government process and his volunteer efforts to preserve and protect

the River

at the edges of the Rainbow River to encourage the growth of a Wood Duck

population on the river This project has been very successful The boxes are

maintained twice a year and have been successful in bringing numerous

breeding pairs of Wood Ducks to the river Over 16 of these Wood Duck

boxes are adjacent to the Rainbow River Ranch property line and two are

located in the East Blue Cove Development of the shore line would material

impact these boxes and the Wood Duck population that RRC has nurtured

for so many years

45 RRC coordinates the Rainbow River Cleanup each year to get

volunteers to remove trash from the River Over 200 people with canoes

kayaks pontoon boats and scuba diving equipment participated this year

46 RRCscontinued involvement with the Rainbow River its

riverine system and wildlife corridors including the land along its shoreline

and tireless efforts to educate the public and to encourage clean and

environmentally sound development will be for naught if the development

that is inconsistent with the goals and objectives of its Comprehensive Plan

is approved and allowed

47 RRC primary organizational purposes and activities include the

study and protection of natural resources and the advocacy of sound land use

and growth management policies affecting the environment and natural

resources of the Rainbow River

48 RRCs involvement in the original acquisition of the land for

state lands further demonstrate an interest greater than that which all persons

share in the community good

49 RRCsofficers and members had initiated and facilitated the

original public acquisition of the adjacent and nearby state lands and a

substantial number of RRCsmembers along with non members who

participate in RRC sponsored activities use the adjacent State lands for

recreational and educational purposes including study and observation of

wildlife utilizing the Rainbow River and forested river corridor

50 The development density and intensity and location of

development allowed under the settlement agreement will adversely affect

RCCs use and its members use of the adjacent State lands as a natural

resource area

51 The location of buildings and structures as well as the increased

traffic and the activity lights and noise associated with a development and

parking lots are incompatible with State lands naturebased recreation and

will discourage and interfere with the ability of wide ranging species to

reach or remain in the adjacent and nearby state lands and wildlife corridors

This will adversely affect the ability of RCC its members and others who

participate in RCC sponsored activities to observe or study wildlife species

52 The development on the subject parcel will adversely impact

the ability to use controlled burns to manage adjoining and nearby lands

including the adjacent state lands Without controlled burns habitat for a

14

variety of species in the adjacent and nearby lands owned by Plaintiffs and

state lands will be reduced or eliminated thus adversely affecting the ability

of RCC its members and others who participate in RCC sponsored

activities to observe or study those species Also without controlled burns

much of the forest will become overgrown with understory species thus

adversely affecting the ability of RCC its members and others who

participate in RCCsponsored activities to fully enjoy the natural resources

that also utilize State lands

Re Proposed Settlement Agreement between Conservation Land Group LLCRainbow River Ranch LLC and the City of Dunnellon

Dear Mayor Ward

Two citizens from your area Bert Eno and Louise Kenney have brought to my attentiona proposed settlement agreement that will be considered by the Dunnellon City Council at aspecial meeting this evening My staff and I have examined the agenda materials available onyour website It is clear that the proposed settlement agreement violates several provisions ofFlorida law and I urge the City Council to reject it

First the settlement agreement contemplates approval of development orders that are notconsistent with the Dunnellon Comprehensive Plan The present designation of the Property isAgriculture which allows one dwelling unit per ten acres or one per five with clustering Thesettlement agreement which would authorize 349 dwelling units and 100000 square feet ofcommercial with an additional 101 units and 25000 square feet of commercial that might beconstructed at some unspecified site is clearly not consistent with the Citys ComprehensivePlan

Second the settlement agreement appears to be based on a mistake of fact Paragraph4b of the settlement agreement states that the Property is vested for the Mixed Use land use

designation The Property has never been designated for Mixed Use under the DunnellonComprehensive Plan The City adopted Mixed Use for the Property in 1996 but the Departmentfound that plan amendment not in compliance and the Mixed Use designation never becameeffective The not incompliance determination was resolved by a remedial plan amendment in2001 which designated a portion of the Property adjacent to County Road 484 Commercial andResidential Medium Density but designated approximately half of the Property near theRainbow River as Agriculture and Conservation The remedial amendment was accompanied byan Agreement Limiting Development executed by the owner of the Property that specified thatthe total number of units on the portion designated as Agriculture would be no more than 30The important point of course was that development was directed away from the RainbowRiver The proposed plat attached to the pending settlement agreement shows many more than30 dwelling units in the area designated as Agriculture and shows additional dwelling units in thearea designated as Conservation under the 2001 remedial amendment

Furthermore the Agreement Limiting Development specifies that any change in thelimitations provided in that Agreement shall be effective only if adopted by further amendmentsto the City of Dunnellon Comprehensive Plan in accordance with the formalities then requiredfor amendments to the Comprehensive Plan The settlement agreement proposes to approveincreased units near the Rainbow River without a plan amendment in violation of the AgreementLimiting Development and in violation of the overall 2001 settlement agreement with theDepartment

Thirdly paragraph 4b of the settlement agreement purports to amend Objective 1Policy 16 of the Future Land Use Element It is not possible for the City to amend itsComprehensive Plan in an agreement The only way that the Comprehensive Plan can beamended is by adoption of a plan amendment under the procedure in section 1633184 FloridaStatutes This attempt to amend the Comprehensive Plan by agreement will be invalid and anydevelopment order that relies upon the attempted amendment will be subject to challenge byaggrieved and adversely affected persons

Paragraph 19 of the settlement agreement mentions changing the land use designations ofthe Property for ad valorum tax purposes It is not clear whether this means changes to the landuse designations on the future land use map of the Comprehensive Plan but if that is intendedthen such changes also cannot be accomplished in an agreement

Fourthly paragraph 20 of the settlement agreement states that In the event of a conflictbetween this Agreement the Citys Comprehensive Plan or Land Development Regulations orother rules or ordinances this Agreement shall prevail This is clearly incorrect as a matter oflaw All development and all development orders must be consistent with the ComprehensivePlan Section 1633194 Florida Statutes

The Honorable Fred R Ward MayorMarch 19 2010Page 3

The proposed settlement agreement is based on the Bert Harris Act The Bert Harris Actdoes not override the provisions of the Growth Management Act Section 1633211 of theGrowth Management Act provides

1633211 Conflict with other statutes Where this act may be in conflict withany other provision or provisions of law relating to local governments havingauthority to regulate the development of land the provisions of this act shallgovern unless the provisions of this act are met or exceeded by such otherprovision or provisions of law relating to local government including landdevelopment regulations adopted pursuant to chapter 125 or chapter 166

I urge you to reject the settlement agreement as inconsistent with the presentComprehensive Plan and as inconsistent with the 2001 Settlement Agreement between the cityand the Department If you have any questions concerning these issues please contact me orAssistant General Counsel David Jordan
