a. Age of housing. b. Value of housing. c. Completeness of kitchen facilities (including sink, hot and cold water, stove, and refrigerator). d. Completeness and exclusive use by dwelling residents of bathroom (including hot and cold water, flush toilet, and tub or shower). e. Heating equipment in use. f. Persons per room (extent of overcrowding). Inasmuch as housing units may have various combinations of the indicators listed, the total number of dwellings reported for all indicators is not an accurate measure of a community’s substandard housing. This fact, coupled with the subjective nature of the "substandard" condition, suggests that a simple definition is needed to offer an opportunity for measurement against census or survey data. The "substandard" definition in this Comprehensive Plan to establish relevant housing objectives and policies is: Substandard Dwelling - A dwelling which lacks complete bathroom plumbing facilities for the exclusive use of the resident(s) of the dwelling; or which is occupied by more than one person per room; or which does not have an adequate level of exterior maintenance to assure that roof, walls, windows, doors, and foundation slab will withstand normal weather conditions to preclude visible structural deterioration. Dwellings which do not possess one or more of the conditions in the definition are considered to be "standard". Table 3-16 displays the number of dwelling units that are substandard according to the first two components of this definition. In 2000, there were no residential units lacking complete plumbing facilities or complete kitchen facilities. Thirty (30) units were overcrowded, having more than one (1) person per room within a single unit. As can be expected for a City with a relatively strict building code, the City's proportion of substandard housing is below the statewide proportion of substandard housing, which totals 6.5% for overcrowded units alone (See Table 3-16). As the housing stock continues to age and the potential for building decay increases, the City must adjust the code enforcement effort by increasing emphasis on rehabilitation and renovation activities in light of the decrease of new construction activity. Resident Population The resident population is comprised of persons residing in the community for periods of greater than six months. The count by the U.S. Census and estimates by the University of Florida are considered to reflect the resident population. During the winter season, November through April, the City’s population does not increase significantly with the influx of seasonal residents and tourists because less than 5% of the housing units are seasonally vacant or held for occasional use. Housing Element Data and Analysis 3-2
The population projections for the resident population reflect the City’s ability to manage growth and the City’s Land Development Regulations also implement the City’s Comprehensive Plan policies in these important areas: 1. Preventing overcrowding of land avoids undue concentration of population 2. Facilitating the adequate provision of transportation, recreational facilities, housing, water and sewage treatment and other requirements and services 3. Ensuring adequate hurricane evacuation capabilities 4. Conserving, developing, utilizing, and protecting natural resources Maintaining these regulations, particularly the intensity of use requirements, remains important as build-out approaches and more redevelopment occurs. Housing Characteristics As represented in Table 3-2, Satellite Beach is a family oriented community with nearly 73% of the households being considered families by the U.S. Census Bureau and nearly 30% of the households containing individuals less than 18 years of age. There is also a considerable retirement population with 36% of households having residents 65 years and older. The predominant type of housing in Satellite Beach is the stand-alone single family dwelling, consisting of 68% of the housing units. If you add attached single family units to that figure, nearly 80% of the housing units are single family dwellings. The other 20% consist of multifamily units. Shimberg reports that there are eight mobile homes in the City limits, constituting a negligible 0.2% of the total housing units. In 1995, the Comprehensive Plan indicated that there were a total of 4,205 dwelling units. In 2000, Shimberg Center indicated that there are a total of 4,257 housing units. This is an increase of 52 units (1.4%) in 5 years. Additionally, the average household size is 2.42 persons per household (2000 Census). Table 3-3 demonstrates the breakdown of housing units by type in the City. In 2000, the Shimberg Center and the US Census reports showed that 91.7% of housing units in the City were occupied. Of the 3,896 occupied housing units, 83.3% were owner-occupied units and 19.2% were renter-occupied units. For owner-occupied units, this is an increase of 3.5% from the 1995 estimate of 80.8% reported in the Comprehensive Plan. Conversely, the percentage of renteroccupied units decreased from 19.2% in 1995 to 16.7% in 2000. Table 3-4 illustrates the ratio of owner-occupied housing units to renter-occupied as shown in the 1995 City of Satellite Beach Comprehensive Plan and estimated and projected by Shimberg for the following years. After 2000, Shimberg projects a slow but steady increase in homeownership and a decrease in the proportion of renters at a proportionately inverse rate. As discussed earlier, of the 4,247 total housing units in the City, 91.7% are occupied and 8.3% are vacant for various reasons. Of the 351 units that Shimberg considers vacant, only 69 are available for sale or rent. (See Table 3-5.) Housing Element Data and Analysis 3-3
