Before GREEN and SHEPHERD, JJ., and SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.
Rehearing and Rehearing En Banc Denied August 2, 2007.
We reverse the Summary Final Order of the Division of Administrative Hearings, determining that the Town of Medley's Ordinance C-306 is consistent with the Town's Comprehensive Plan. Ordinance C-306 permits expansion of a non-conforming use, which the Comprehensive Plan destined to be phased out. This violates the Florida Growth Management Act's dictates that local plans be "implemented through the adoption of land development regulations that are consistent with the plan." Bd. of County Comm'rs of Brevard County v. Snyder, 627 So.2d 469, 473 (Fla. 1993)(emphasis added); § 163.3202, Fla. Stat. (2006). Here, as the Ordinance unequivocally "deviates or departs" from the parameters of the Plan, Machado v. Musgrove, 519 So.2d 629, 634 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987), we cannot hold that it is consistent. See City of Miami Beach v. Chisholm Props. S. Beach, Inc., 830 So.2d 842, 843 (Fla. 3d DCA 2002)(Schwartz, C.J., specially concurring).
We therefore reverse the Summary Final Order and remand with instructions to grant Gateway's Motion for Summary Final Order.
