WHEREAS,the City is granted the authority,under Section 2(b),Article VIII, of the State

Ilaw; and
WHEREAS,the City Council previously adopted Ordinance No. 04-2007, as amended by
Ordinance No. 02-2011 (the "Resort Use Ordinances"), which expressly established that the C-1
zoning designation would constitute the applicable zoning classification for resort condominiums
and resort dwellings, as defined by chapter 509,Florida Statutes, to be located within the City; and
WHEREAS,the Resort Use Ordinances also established regulations for allowing existing
and other permitted resort condominiums and resort dwellings not within the C-1 zoning designation
to be grandfathered as nonconforming uses until abandoned pursuant to the criteria established in
the City's zoning Code; and
WHEREAS, subsequent to the adoption of the Resort Use Ordinances, the Florida
Legislature revised the nomenclature for these uses and said uses are now collectively referred to as
"vacation rentals" pursuant to section 509.242(1)(c), Florida Statutes; and
WHEREAS, in accordance with Chapter 2011-119, Laws of Florida, the City Council
acknowledges and recognizes that the Legislature has now preempted local regulations and
Iordinances regarding the use of vacation rentals and that ordinances adopted on or before June 1,
2011 (including the Resort Use Ordinances)were exempted from the new preemption imposed by
the Florida Legislature; and

vacation rentals in dwellings in accordance with the applicable provisions of Florida law including
the Florida Building Code and Florida Fire Prevention Code; and

regulation affecting vacation rentals,it is not the City Council's desire to repeal the minimum seven-
day rental restriction which has existed in the City of Cape Canaveral prior to the adoption of the

1 Case, Royal Mansions Condominium Association, Inc. v. City of Cape Canaveral, Case No. 89-
