CASSELBERRY CITY COMMISSION Minutes of September 25, 2017 — Regular Meeting Page 12 of 15 review process and what had been done since the transmittal to the State of Florida. She advised that the Comprehensive Plan Amendments and Evaluation and Appraisal Report (EAR) had been transmitted to the FDEO and distributed to various state and local agencies, including the water management district, the county and the school district for their review of the proposed documents, and the City had received a total of three comments, all from the Florida Department of Transportation and all very minor, such as scrivener's errors and consistency of terminology. She noted there were no items which impacted the City's Goals, Objectives and Policies and the items were easily addressed. Ms. Ghioto advised that the three comments made by the State of Florida Department of Economic Opportunity were: Clarify whether the plan bases density on gross or net developable area—Plan was clarified to note that those calculations are based on gross developable area because that is what the City's land development regulations provide for; Remove one obsolete reference to the former Traffic Circulation Element — Reference was removed; Remove one obsolete reference to traffic concurrency — Reference was removed. She added that since receipt of the comments from State review, her team and staff had done a final audit of the draft document to tweak minor scrivener's errors; include updated master plans which had been approved since the transmittal hearing; clarify data received from regional and county sources for better understanding as to how the data is intended to be used; and make sure inventories of items such as renovations to water or sewer facilities, schools, etc. are up to date to ensure the most accurate data prior to submission of the final adopted version of the Plan to the State. She noted that none of the minor changes made impacted the overall intent of the Comprehensive Plan itself.
