Anthony Warren TILLMAN, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 88-1954.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
Jan. 18, 1990.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Kellie A. Nielan, Asst. Atty. Gen., Daytona Beach, for appellee.

Opinion:
HARRIS, Judge.
Tillman appeals from his sentence for aggravated assault imposed by the trial judge after he entered a nolo contendere plea. Tillman argues the judge erred in giving him a departure sentence under the sentencing guidelines without giving written reasons therefor because he was sentenced to serve 180 days in the Volusia County jail as a condition of being placed on community control for 2 years. His scoresheet, which totaled 125 points, placed him in the second sentencing bracket which permits 12-30 months' incarceration "or" community control.
Tillman contends that by sentencing him to a term in the county jail as a condition of community control the judge violated the mandate of Rule 3.701(d)(ll) by aggravating his guideline sentence without appropriate written reasons. He relies on Vankooten v. State, 512 So.2d 214 (Fla. 5th DCA 1987), approved, 522 So.2d 830 (Fla.1988) and Hankey v. State, 505 So.2d 701 (Fla. 5th DCA); review denied, 515 So.2d 230 (Fla.1987).
Such reliance is misplaced. These cases stand for the proposition that a sentence may not include both a prison term (12 to 30 months) and community control without proper grounds for departure. They do not address the discretion of the sentencing judge to impose jail time as a condition of community control. See § 948.03(7), Fla. Stat. (1987) and Reese v. State, 535 So.2d 676 (Fla. 5th DCA, 1988).
The sentence appealed is affirmed.
AFFIRMED.
