How long does a ROGO allocation take?

By Steve Conley

Short Answer

The wait time for a ROGO allocation depends on the tier and category. Some categories experience longer wait times than others. It is essential to understand the current allocation timeline before purchasing undeveloped land in the Keys.

Wait times for ROGO allocations vary depending on the tier and current demand. I have seen allocations take anywhere from two to ten years. Properties in Tier III infill zones move faster. Tier I environmentally sensitive areas can take much longer. Check with Monroe County for current wait time estimates.
