In coordination with the other elements of this plan, future development within the Urban Service Boundary AF-ea shall be directed to areas where urban and community services/facilities can be provided in the most efficient and compact manner so as to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl. Policy 1.1.6.1 - Urban development activities shall be restricted to that area identified as the Urban Service Area Boundary and the in the Future Land Use Map series or to special area plans adopted within the Towns, Villages and Countryside Element. Urban development activities are defined, for the purpose of this Policy, as any residential development activity in excess of two units to the gross acre, any non-agricultural commercial activity or any non- extractive/non-agriculturally related industrial activity. The Urban Service AFea Boundary is not intended to be a static line of development. Using Ordinance No. 2022-015 Page 10 the 1990 adopted urban service boundary line as a base, an individual segment of this line may be extended or contracted only once for a distance up to 1,500 feet from that which is indicated in the Future Land Use Map series without necessitating an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan, provided that the urban service area lies contiguous to an existing residential commercial or industrial land use classification; the owner of the contiguous property can ensure the provision of appropriate infrastructure and services, and the resulting change does not detrimentally impact the established character of the area surrounding the area to be included in the urban service boundary. St. Lucie County shall be responsible for maintaining an updated map indicating the location of the 1990-Urban Service Boundary, including any alterations to it and once every two years include as a part of a Comprehensive Plan Amendment process, the latest Urban Service Areas Map. Any modification of the PlaRRed Urban Service AFea Boundary beyond 1,500 feet will require a formal amendment through the Comprehensive Plan amendment process and shall include an analysis of available capacity inside the Urban Service Boundary; anticipated growth; compatibility of adjacent land uses availability of public facilities and services; analysis of the need for job creation capital improvement, and economic development that will strengthen and diversify the economy: and local, regional and international influences. Policy 1.1.6.2 - Prior to the issuance of any final development order within the -Urban Service AFea Boundary and special area plans adopted within the Towns, Villages and Countryside Element, the County shall consider the proximity of the proposed development activity to the availability of urban and community services and facilities. Development which requires extending any of these services over or through significant distances of undeveloped land or land not already subject to the issuance of a final development order shall be discouraged until other lands that are more proximate to the existing services have been developed. Policy 1.1.6.13 — Prior to the County's next Evaluation and Appraisal Review notification deadline (10/1/2024) St. Lucie County shall complete an assessment of the Urban Service Boundary and determine if the boundary needs to be adjusted to support urban growth through the 2050 planning horizon. The assessment of whether the Urban Service Boundary (USB) continues to provide the capacity to accommodate projected growth shall include: • Population growth projections through 2050; • Review of the existing land uses patterns and land use designations; • Inventory of vacant land within the current USB; • Forecast of the land needed to accommodate the projected population growth; • Employment forecasts; • Growth trends market conditions and growth pressures along the Treasure Coast region; • Forecast of the land needed to accommodate the commercial and industrial projected growth; • Inventory of public facilities and services; • Review of existing infrastructure capacity and the protected needs through 2050; and • Inventory of lands intended to be protected from encroachment of urban development to preserve natural resources rural communities: agricultural uses, etc. The USB Assessment area shall encompass the following: Ordinance No. 2022-015 Page 11 f ► O•+i'i+Oi'i MSRI+tom ��++• • •••••�i�i�i •.

Upon completion and review of the USB Assessment, updates to the Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code may be proposed to refine provisions regarding areas where urban and community services/facilities will be directed, infrastructure/capital improvement planning and updates to land development standards and incentives, intended to support the projected growth and to reflect the needs and vision of the community. The results of the USB Assessment may lead to further identifying: • geographic strategic advantages and opportunities; • lands to target for development and plans for the investments in infrastructure in these targeted locations to effectively strengthen the job market and land needed to accommodate the projected; • framework to provide public facilities and services in the most cost-effective and efficient manner; • incentives and innovative tools to further attract targeted industries; and Ordinance No. 2022-015 Page 12 • incentives and strategies to promote growth while balancing the protection of natural resources and enhancing community resiliency.
