Development Services and environmental
Protecon Commission Wetland Setback Encroachment
Vegetave Compensaon Guidelines
Background
The Land Development Code (LDC) denes wetlands and natural water bodies as environmentally sensive areas. Land
alteraons which propose impacts to or would otherwise adversely aect such areas are prohibited unless specically
approved by the Environmental Protecon Commission (EPC) in accordance with EPC Rule Chapter 1-11. Addionally,
these areas are to be depicted on all development plans as either a Wetland Conservaon Area or a Wetland
Preservaon Area.
In order to minimize the primary and secondary impacts of development to these environmentally sensive areas,
setbacks of 30 feet for Conservaon Areas and 50 feet for Preservaon Areas are required as prescribed within LDC
Secon 4.01.07. Depending on the environmental sensivity of the protected area or the intensity of a proposed
development, a wider setback as determined by the EPC may be required. No lling, excavang or placement of
permanent structures or other impervious surfaces are allowed within the setback except for those acvies idened
in LDC Secon 4.01.07.B that are approved either administravely or through a variance. As idened in LDC Secon
4.01.07.B.3, nave vegetaon within a wetland setback is recognized to provide natural ltraon of surface water runo
or prevent soil erosion and downstream sedimentaon to a wetland area. Therefore, to address these environmental
benets, LDC Secon 4.01.07.B.3 prescribes the removal of nave vegetaon within a required setback is discouraged
and may be restricted or prohibited by the EPC to protect the integrity of the wetland or water body.
Purpose
In consideraon of the background discussion, the intent of these guidelines is to provide a clear, concise and uniform
format to determine when and how vegetave compensaon requirements for wetland setback encroachments will
be administered by Hillsborough County. These guidelines are not intended to supplant current LDC regulaons or add
further regulaons to what is currently provided by the LDC, but to provide a procedure creang consistency among sta
when making decisions to administer vegetave compensaon planngs for permied wetland setback encroachments.
These guidelines are also intended to assist the applicant with the planning and design components of a development
applicaon by providing a wrien instrument describing expected administrave procedures.
Excepons
Wetland setback encroachment compensaon planngs shall not be required for wetland setback encroachments
resulng from:
• A road or drive essenal for access into the property.
• Wetland migaon areas as required by the pernent regulatory agency.
Guidelines
Setbacks, even those without signicant nave vegetaon, provide a protecve buer between wetlands and nearby
development acvies. Therefore, every eort should be made during site design to preserve wetland setbacks in their
enrety. If site constraints and required development acvies result in the need to encroach into wetland setbacks
every eort should be made to minimize the encroachment and to locate the encroachment within the least desirable
poron of the setback. Some encroachments will require compensaon planngs to oset the loss of the environmental
benets provided to the wetland by the setback. In these situaons, a detailed vegetave proposal compensang for the
area of encroachment must be depicted on the site plan.
The requirement for wetland setback encroachment compensaon will be evaluated under two categories. These
categories are classied as pervious encroachments and impervious encroachments.
Pervious Encroachments: Approved encroachments including but not limited to ll slopes, ponds or roadway berms of
15-feet or less shall not require compensaon planngs for setbacks dominated (i.e. 50% or greater) by non-nave
vegetaon provided that the area of encroachment is sodded upon compleon of the encroachment acvies. Pervious
encroachments into areas dominated (i.e. 50% or greater) by nave Florida vegetaon will require compensaon
planng unless the area of encroachment is less than the exempon listed below (*).
Impervious Encroachments: Approved encroachment acvies including but not limited to buildings, roads, pavement
and sidewalks into setbacks shall require compensaon planngs with nave Florida shrub species within the remaining

Protecon Commission Wetland Setback Encroachment
Vegetave Compensaon Guidelines
poron of the setback, unless the area of the setback, unless the area of encroachment is less than the exempon listed
below (*).
(*) Exempon: For commercial, subdivision projects and single family residenal lots nave planngs will not be required
if the total area of wetland setback encroachment is less than 500 square feet for commercial or subdivision projects or
500 square feet or 10% of the total area of the setback, whichever is less, for single-family residenal lots.
Wetland Setback Encroachment Compensaon Planng Requirements
• The area of required planng will be a minimum 1:1 raon for the area of encroachment which is not exempt. No
more than a 1:1 rao shall be required. Addional compensaon may be proposed.
• Compensaon planngs will consist of nave shrubs with no less than two species and each species will comprise no
less than 30% of the total number of required shrub planngs. See Table 1 for suggested species.
• All shrub planngs will be evenly spaced on 5 foot centers with a minimum size of 3 gallon or #3 size materials.
• Planngs will be located within any suitable, open areas of the remaining setback abung the area of encroachment
or if these areas do not exist, the planngs may be located within or adjacent to another poron of the site’s wetland
setback. If no suitable planng areas exist on site, a wetland and /or wetland setback enhancement plan, nuisance
species control program or other suitable compensaon alternave may be proposed.
• The installaon of a suitable irrigaon system is recommended to ensure plant establishment and fulllment of the
required survival criteria.
Nave tree and herbaceous species may be ulized in addion to the required shrub planngs to establish canopy or
groundcover components if desired by the applicant.
MONITORING REQUIREMENTS:
Monitoring of planted areas shall consist of the following:
• A me-zero report, lisng species and #s planted, upon compleon of the planngs shall be provided to the Natural
Resources Secon of the Development Services department no later than 30 days following planng compleon.
• Two annual reports that list survival % per species and any required replants shall be provided to the Natural
Resources Secon of the Development Services department no later than 30 days following data collecon.
• Planted shrub species must maintain a minimum 85% survival rate with annual replanng if needed. Exoc and
nuisance species (reference most current Florida Exoc Pest Plan Council list) cover within the planng zones must
be maintained below 10%.
• For nuisance species control program areas, all exoc and nuisance species must be removed during the inial
control event(s) and total nuisance species coverage must be maintained below 10% for 2 years thereaer.
