Key largo wastewater treatment board manager says

We are the government and if you don't like it

"We will roll over you"

Key largo wastewater district is putting $500.00 assessments on properties that are in Tier 1, too small to build on and underwater.  Some of these properties have not received a tax bill for 20 years because of their non-buildable status.  As Steve Gibbs reporter for the free press stated...."Sal they just throw it against the wall and see what sticks."

When will the Government Figure it Out?

Three weeks ago, the State of Florida deposited $8.85 million with the Clerk of Court for Monroe County to compensate the landowners in Florida DEP v. West for the condemnation of their North Key Largo properties in April 2004. When this eminent domain action was filed as a slow-take in 1995, the State offered a mere $160,000 for the subject properties. Our response to the slow-take was a regulatory taking counterclaim. That was our way to protect landowners from the State "walking away" from any jury verdict it did not like.
Land values began to rise in 2001 -- although not on these properties. In 2004 the State opted for a "quick-take." At that time, the State's estimated fair market value of the two parcels -- based on the confiscatory regulatory scheme -- was $630,000. But after executing the quick-take, the State could no longer walk away from a jury verdict that exceeded its budget. After all, nobody had been able to build on North Key Largo since February 8, 1982 (except at the Ocean Reef Club and a few existing subdivisions).
 
After the 2004 quick-takes, we re-cast the regulatory taking counterclaim into a jury instruction on condemnation blight. Even though the Florida Supreme Court has embraced condemnation blight on at least two occasions, the State's in-house attorneys could not grasp the concept. Fortunately we had a trial judge, Luis Garcia, who understands government cannot prohibit a landowner from using his property, and then benefit from its own actions by driving down the property's acquisition cost. (In 2001, Judge Garcia ruled the same way in another case, Shadek v Monroe County, where White & Case attorney Doug Halsey raised the same issues and Monroe County settled by paying $6 million in temporary taking damages.)
So ... the government goes down for the count again! I have remarked, on numerous occasions, that the reason for this waste of money is nothing more than the "tyranny of the majority" in small, attractive, relatively well-to-do communities such as the Florida Keys. Those who already own homes in the Keys will do everything in their power to prevent others from doing so. To that end, the "got-miners" elect like-minded County Commissioners, who respond by prohibiting new development wherever they find it. It's a self-perpetuating, downward spiral, that could well -- unless reversed -- bankrupt every owner of developed property in the Keys.

To got-miners: think about it!

State Ends Appeal of Condemnation Blight Decision

Scales of JusticeAfter the 3rd District Court of Appeal denied the State's Motion for Rehearing in DEP v. West, et al, on December 2, 2009, it chose not to petition the Florida Supreme Court for discretionary review.

The parties disagreed on the amount of interest owed. One issue was whether the post-judgment statutory interest rate, in effect on the date of judgment (it was 11% in 2008), continues at the same rate until the judgment is paid. After concluding that the legislature enacted such a statute a few years ago, the State conceded the point. The other issue is whether the pre-judgment interest portion of the final judgment is subject to post-judgment interest. This remains in dispute.

In addition to the interest issue, the State declined to voluntarily pay landowners' appellate attorneys' fees (motion granted by the District Court of Appeal), leaving the amount of appellate fees to be determined by the trial court. Leaving the post-judgment interest on pre-judgment interest, and appellate attorneys' fees, to be decided later, the State deposited the undisputed funds with the Clerk of Court on January 5, 2010.

This brings "just compensation" for Parcel 1 to $7.525 million, and Parcel 7 to $650,000. Not bad when the State's 2004 "good-faith estimates" of just compensation, were $550,000 (7.3%) for Parcel 1 and $80,000 (12%) for Parcel 7. 

There is a lesson to be learned here!

The scoring of each indicator is based on what would be suitable for the type of wetland or surface water assessed

Condition is optimal and fully supports wetland/surface water functions

Condition is less than optimal, but sufficient to maintain most wetland/surface waterfunctions

Minimal level of support of wetland/surface water functions

Condition is insufficient to provide wetland/surface water functions

DEP/USACE suggested restoration project

Un-permitted dirt road in Bay Haven Subdivision Slated to be restored to wetland status.  The wetland restoration project was promoted and suggested by both USACE and Florida DEP.  Owner of the private property above is using this Bay Haven lot for mitigation for a permit on an ocean front lot in Cudjoe Key.  The property was offered to the Monroe county for purchase to offset the $35,000 USACE mitigation fee and the $18,000 DEP fee levied on the owner's Cudjoe Key Lot.  Director Mark J. Rosch of Monroe County Land Authority said to proceed with mitigation (removal of road) because the county was not interest in the purchase. Rosch suggested to approach the Home-owners association for possible purchase.

State throws in the towel

State Concedes DEP v West, after 3d DCA Denies Motions for Rehearing & Conflict Certification

 On November 5, 2009, the State filed a "Motion for Rehearing" with the District Court of Appeal. The State also asked the District Court to "certify conflict" with an opinion of another Florida District Court of Appeal. Both motions were denied by the District Court on December 2, 2009.
  On December 4th, counsel for the State sent Mattson-Tobin an email asking them to pick a "date certain" in January, so the 11% interest clock can be stopped and checks issued. Post-judgment interest is running at $1,817.84 per day.  On November 7, 2009, the District Court granted a motion for appellate attorneys' fees. 
  There is no doubt that this "condemnation blight" decision will be brought to bear against Monroe County, Islamorada, and Marathon, in the many regulatory taking cases now before the courts. Although the State picked up the entire tab in West (and we will tell you how big a tab that was in our January update), the local governments in Monroe County have a huge financial shockwave coming their way.
