- Title
- AN AREA OF CRITICAL ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN: THE CASE OF THE FLORIDA KEYS.
- Creator
- CRAWFORD, CAROL COOPER., Florida Atlantic University, Nicholas, James C., College of Business, Department of Economics
- Abstract/Description
-
This thesis includes an overview of modern land use regulation from the Euclid decision in 1926 to the American Law Institute's Model Land Development Code. The main emphasis of this thesis is the Code's "districts of critical state concern". Florida, in enacting the Environmental Land and Water Management Act in 1972, used the ALI Code as a model for its "areas of critical state concern". The Florida Keys are studied in this thesis in regards to this type of designation in order to research...
Show moreThis thesis includes an overview of modern land use regulation from the Euclid decision in 1926 to the American Law Institute's Model Land Development Code. The main emphasis of this thesis is the Code's "districts of critical state concern". Florida, in enacting the Environmental Land and Water Management Act in 1972, used the ALI Code as a model for its "areas of critical state concern". The Florida Keys are studied in this thesis in regards to this type of designation in order to research the intergovernmental aspects and problems of this legislation. A survey of the people of the Keys and interviews with their elected officials during the first few months following their designation as one of critical state concern uncovered some of the inherent difficulties involved when the state imposes its guidelines on a local municipality within the ALI context.

- ECONOMIC IMPACT ANALYSIS OF THE AREA OF CRITICAL STATE CONCERN DESIGNATION ON THE FLORIDA KEYS.
- Creator
- YORK, MARIE LANGE., Florida Atlantic University, Nicholas, James C., College of Business, Department of Economics
- Abstract/Description
-
The state of Florida recognized that the negative effects of development in the Florida Keys were extending beyond the local area and affecting the broader interests of the state itself. In an attempt to regulate growth and its effects, the state, in 1975, designated the archipelago off its southern coast an Area of Critical State Concern. Besides the environmental changes, this designation and its accompanying land use regulations have t he potential to create economic impacts. This thesis...
Show moreThe state of Florida recognized that the negative effects of development in the Florida Keys were extending beyond the local area and affecting the broader interests of the state itself. In an attempt to regulate growth and its effects, the state, in 1975, designated the archipelago off its southern coast an Area of Critical State Concern. Besides the environmental changes, this designation and its accompanying land use regulations have t he potential to create economic impacts. This thesis analyzes the Keys' economy and determines if the critical area designation impacted the local economy.
