FLORIDA, AMENDING CHAPTER 30 "ZONING AND LAND
DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS" OF THE VILLAGE CODE
OF ORDINANCES BY AMENDING ARTICLE II
"DEFINITIONS", AT SECTION 30-11, RELATED TO
REGULATIONS OF SIGNS, AND ARTICLE VIII "SIGNS", AT
SECTIONS 30-190, 30-191, 30-193, 30-196, 30-197, 30-198, 30-
199 AND 30-200, TO AMEND THE REGULATIONS
REGARDING PLACEMENT OF SIGNS WITHIN PUBLIC
RIGHTS -OF -WAY, AND TO PROVIDE UPDATED
PROCEDURES AND STANDARDS FOR SIGNS
GENERALLY; PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR CONFLICTS; AND PROVIDING FOR AN
EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, pursuant to Article VIII, Section 2 of the Florida Constitution, and Chapter
166, Florida Statutes, the Village of Key Biscayne (the "Village") is authorized to protect the public
health, safety and welfare of its residents and has the power and authority to enact regulations for
valid governmental purposes that are not inconsistent with general or special law; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council previously adopted definitions, permit procedures, and
regulations, relating to the installation, construction, placement, and erection of signs in the Village;
and
WHEREAS, these provisions were codified within Article VIII "Signs" of Chapter 30
"Zoning and Land Development Regulations" of the Village's Code of Ordinances ("Code"); and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds it periodically necessary to amend its Code in order
to update regulations and procedures to implement planning goals and objectives; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds and determines that the Village's sign regulations
are intended to maintain and improve the aesthetics, quality of life, and safety of the Village and its
residents, while meeting the need for signage that clearly identifies locations, advertises
noncommercial messages and businesses, and otherwise communicates commercial and
noncommercial speech; and
WHEREAS, sign regulation to advance the governmental purpose of aesthetics has long
been upheld by the state and federal courts; and
WHEREAS, based on a review of recent legal authority and upon the direction of the
Village Council, Village staff, in coordination with the Village Attorney's office, has developed
proposed revisions to the Village sign regulations within Article VIII "Signs" of Chapter 30 "Zoning
and Land Development Regulations" of the Code, in order to update standards and procedures
regarding temporary signs, and to clarify regulations concerning the location of temporary signs
within public rights -of -way; and
WHEREAS, these amendments are further intended to clarify the intent of the existing sign
regulations, aid in interpretation and enforcement of the regulations, and further ensure that the
regulations are consistent with all controlling laws and provide for viewpoint neutral regulation of
signs; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds and determines that the Village has consistently
adopted severability provisions in connection with its Code, and the Village Council wishes to
assure that its severability provisions will be applied to its sign regulations; and
WHEREAS, in several recent judicial decisions, the courts have failed to give full effect to
severability provisions applicable to sign regulations, and expressed uncertainty over whether local
government authorities intended that severability would apply to certain factual situations despite
the plain and ordinary meaning of the severability clauses; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council is aware that the failure of some courts to apply
severability clauses has led to an increase in litigation by applicants seeking to strike down sign
regulations in their entirety so that they may argue that their applications to erect signs must be
2
granted; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council desires that there be an ample and unequivocal record of
its intention that the severability clauses it has adopted related to its sign regulations shall be applied
to the maximum extent possible, even if a limitation on speech would result from a determination
that any exceptions, limitations, variances, or other sign provisions are invalid or unconstitutional
for any reason whatsoever; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council desires that its sign prohibitions be given full effect,
regardless of the invalidity or unconstitutionality of any or all of the Village's sign regulations, land
development regulations, or other regulations; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council further finds and determines that the Village has long
allowed noncommercial speech to appear wherever commercial speech appears and that it now
codifies that practice through the adoption of a substitution clause that expressly allows non-
commercial messages to be substituted for commercial messages; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council specifically intends that this substitution clause and past
practice be applied so that its sign regulations can never be construed to impermissibly favor
commercial messages over noncommercial messages, and desires to codify this substitution clause
in this Ordinance to bolster its effectiveness; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council, sitting in its capacity as the Local Planning Agency, has
reviewed this Ordinance and recommends approval; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds that the changes within this Ordinance meet the
applicable review criteria set forth in Section 30-71(b) of the Code; and
WHEREAS, the Village Council finds that the adoption of this Ordinance is in the best interest of
the residents of the Village.
