The Lee Plan requires the County to “enforce” development standards that maintain the historic low-density residential development pattern of Captiva, to “continue” existing land use patterns, and to “limit” development to that which is in keeping with the historic development pattern on Captiva. CCA claims that the Land Development Code amendments passed by the County to exempt South Seas (and only South Seas) from the density and height limits that apply to the rest of Captiva violate the Plan. Attached here is the Joint Proposed Final Order submitted to the Judge by CCA and the City of Sanibel. A decision in this case should be issued on or about Jan. 13.
