Résumé

This Part of Chapter 369 of the Florida Statutes is known as the Wekiva River Protection Act. The Act states that it is the intent of the Legislature that Orange, Lake, and Seminole Counties emphasize the Wekiva River Protection Area in their planning and regulation efforts. Therefore, each county’s local comprehensive plan and land development regulations applicable to the Wekiva River Protection Area must meet the criteria set forth in this Act. The Act further requires the counties to consider and issue the development permits applicable to a proposed development of regional impact which is located partially or wholly within the Wekiva River Protection Area at the same time as the development order approving, approving with conditions, or denying a development of regional impact. The Act also declares the Wekiva River Protection Area to be a natural resource of state and regional importance. The East Central Florida Regional Planning Council shall adopt policies as part of its strategic regional policy plan and regional issues list which will protect the water quantity, water quality, hydrology, wetlands, aquatic and wetland dependent wildlife species, habitat of species, and native vegetation in the Wekiva River Protection Area. Finally, the Act prohibits the operation of an airboat on the Wekiva River System.
