Major Site Plan approval for the project known as BPSC, on property located on the
south side of Center Road, approximately 1,300 feet south of St. Lucie Boulevard and
more particularly described in Part D below.
2. On, June 13, 2011, Florida Governor Rick Scott, issued Executive Order (EO) No. 11-
128 (as extended by EO Nos. 11-172 and 11-202) declaring a State of Emergency for
Florida due to significant drought and wildfire conditions.
3. Section 252.363 Florida Statutes provides that any local government issued
development order or permit may be extended from the period remaining for the duration
of the emergency declaration plus six months.
4. The Act requires that a specific written notice be filed with the issuing authority within
ninety days after the termination of the declaration of emergency. The deadline to file
the requisite Notice is February 1, 2012.
5. On, July 1, 2011, Florida Governor Rick Scott, signed into law, Chapter 2011-139, Laws
of Florida, more commonly known as the "Community Planning Act" Bill (the "Bill").
6. The Bill provides that any local government issued development order or permit that was
extended under Section 14 of Chapter 2009-96, Laws of Florida, as reauthorized by
Section 46 of Chapter 2010-147, Laws of Florida, may be eligible to be extended and
renewed for an additional period of two years after its previously scheduled expiration

is requested, the intended use of the extension and the anticipated time frame for acting
on the authorization.
