AN ORDER GRANTING A STATUTORY EXTENSION
PROVIDED BY FLORIDA STATUTE SECTION 252.363,
FLORIDA STATUE TO THE APPROVED CONDITIONAL USE
PERMIT FOR TILTON ROAD DOG RETREAT.
WHEREAS, the St. Lucie County Planning and Development Services Director has reviewed
the request for a development order extension timely submitted by Matthew and Jann Rudd,
and has made the following determinations:
1. On September 5, 2017, the Board of County Commissioners approved a Conditional
Use Permit to allow for the operation of a completely enclosed dog kennel facility. The
subject 9.76 -acre property is zoned AR -1 (Agricultural, Residential — 1) and is located at
1050 Tilton Road.
2. On July 9, 2018, the Governor issued Executive Order 18-191 for a period of 60 days
due to the discharge of harmful water from Lake Okeechobee into the Caloosahatchee
River, St. Lucie River, Indian River Lagoon and the estuaries which resulted in wide-
spread algae blooms.
3. Section 252.363, Florida Statute 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. Section 252.363, Florida Statute requires that a specific written notice be filed with the
issuing authority within ninety days after the termination of the declaration of emergency.
The applicant applied for this extension on August 3, 2018.
5. Planning Staff performed an analysis of the project and determined that the extension is
consistent with the original St. Lucie County development order granting approval.
Further analysis is found in the memorandum titled Tilton Road Dog Retreat Executive
Order Extension, dated August 27, 2018.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning and Development Services of St.
Lucie County, Florida:
