(a)

The governing body of each affected municipality in the county shall, no later than October 1, 1990, submit to the county council its amended ordinance containing the standards in this division. However, prior to this date, a municipality may elect to authorize the county to administer the Indian River Lagoon surface water improvements and management zone regulations within said municipality. Thereafter, the county council shall review said ordinance for compliance with this division and, after said review, inform the municipality whether or not said municipal ordinance is in compliance with this division. If such ordinance of the municipality is not enacted or submitted on this date, or is not in compliance with this division, the county council may enforce its Indian River Lagoon surface water improvements and management zone regulations to the extent geographically described in section 50-133, in accordance with the regulations contained in Ordinance No. 80-8, as amended (the zoning ordinance, appendix B to this Code), in said municipality, or may otherwise enforce this provision as provided by section 50-75.

Notwithstanding the submittal requirements set out in subsection (a) of this section, the governing body of each affected jurisdiction in the county which has previously adopted division 5 of this article, pertaining to minimum environmental standards for wetland protection, is not required to adopt the amendments to this division enacted by the county council on September 16, 1993.
