KI.: Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the Unincorporated
,Areas of Palm Beach County, Florida
Dear Mayor Privitte:
As you are probably aware, the Board of County Commissioners
of Palm Beach County, Florida, pursuant to a recent opinion
from the Attorney General of the State of Florida, has
placed the responsib:i.lity for and duty of preparation of
a Comprehensive Land Use Plan for the unincorporated areas
of the County under the direction of the Palm Beach County
Planning, 7,oning & Building Department. Phis decision was
made simultaneously with the creation of a fully professional
planning staff who will prepare the Land Use Flan with the
assistance of an appointed fifteen man Land Use Advisory Board.
The Land Use Plan will set forth long-range goals, immediate
objectives and designate desired development policies for
the future use of land i.n the unincorporated areas of the
County. The plan shall consist of both written statements
and graphic presentations based on extensive studies oi'
existing land use and open space patterns, road systems,
socio-economic characteristics and various ,land use controls
and tools available to implement recommendations. Once the
plan has been completed, the Land Use Advisory Board will
present this document at public hearing for review and modi-
fication, if necessary. Fina-lly, the Board of County Com-
mi.ssioners will review and adopt the plan. The plan caill
then serve as a guide for future zoning decisions as caell
as a framework for the related land use considerations, such
as our needs for. open space, additional transportation facili-
ties, institutional and community services, and the proper
location and desirable amounts of residential, industrial,
institutional, recreational, and agricultural land uses.
Those of us who have peen long time residents of the County
and involved in local government, easily recognize the im-
portance of the adoption of a comprehensive land use plan in
the wake of our present and projected urban growth. `f here
are a few of us caho would not admit that the need for such
land use planning and development guidelines existed long ago.

IIowev~r, as it often occurs, government and i_ts related duties
and fwictions, suc]_i as providing for roads, schools, and
land use guidance, often come after a point in time in which
they are capable of doing the most good. The adoption of the
plan is scheduled for February 1, 1973, a date that is not
too late to benefit the citizens and residents of Palm Beach
County. The plan is not only an opportunity topuide growth
and preserve much needed open space, but it also presents the
rare opportunity to articulate cahat type of county we wish
to live in now and what type of county we caish to bequeath
to future generations. When adopted, the document will have
a particular impact on the unincorporated areas of the county
as well as having a special effect on the incorporated areas
within the county. Uncontrolled growth in the westward areas
cai71 pose severe problems for each of the coastal communities
and will. endanger the much needed conservation and agricultural
areas yet undeveloped. It is at this juncture that your
cooperation will be tenaciously sought by members of the
planning staff of the Palm Beach County Planning, 7,oning &
Building Department and Citizens Land Use Advisory Board.
1'he coordination of local planning policy and zoning activi-
ties of each municipality is exceedingly important in order
to prevent conflicts at incorporated/unincorporated borders
and to produce the best long-range guide for regional urban
growth. Pursuant to this goal of municipal and county co-
operation two important points of concern arise:
]. The establishment of a means of coordinating
both county and municipal planning efforts.
2. 'i'he recognition of municipal annexation plans
by county planners.
Each community with growth potential should address itself
to each of these issues and it is recommended that such
communities adopt a resolution of intent to be made a part
of and incorporated into the "public records" of said munici.-
oa]ity and Palm Reach County concerning local land use plans
and policies, including but not limited to:
1. Intent to cooperate with county land use
planning efforts.
7. Clarification of present and future annexation
plans, if any.
3. Designation of a person or persons on a municipal
level with whom the county planning staff and
Land Use Advisory Board might coordinate
planning efforts to best reflect specific
goals and objectives of your community.
