owners of the "Conservation Easement Area" (as hereinafter defined) and the term "Grantee" shall
include any successor or assignee of Grantee.
WITNESSETH:
WHEREAS, the Grantor is the fee simple owner of certain lands situated in St. Lucie County,
Florida, and more specifically described in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by
this reference ("Property"); and
WHEREAS, the Grantor is proposing the construction of a single-family residence
("Project") on the Property, which is subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the St. Lucie County
Board of County Commissioners ("County"); and
WHEREAS, the County approved the Wetland Waiver for the Project pursuant to Resolution
No 2023-219 ("Resolution'); and
WHEREAS, the Resolution requires that the owner ("Owner") maintain, in perpetuity, that
portion of the Property designated as preserve area ("Conservation Area") as more particularly
described in Exhibit `B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference; and
WHEREAS, the Declaration provides that the maintenance of the Conservation Area is the
perpetual obligation of the Owner; and
WHEREAS, the Property will be further subject to the Declaration of Covenants, Conditions
and Restrictions of the Preserve Area Management and Maintenance Plan attached hereto as Exhibit
"C" and incorporated herein by this reference ("Management Plan').
WHEREAS, the Grantor is agreeable to granting and securing to the Grantee a perpetual
Conservation Easement as defined in Section 704.06, Florida Statutes, over the Conservation Area.
NOW, THEREFORE, Grantor hereby grants, creates, and establishes a perpetual
Conservation Easement for and in favor of the Grantee upon the Conservation Area which shall
run with the land and be binding upon the Grantor, and shall remain in full force and effect forever.
The scope, nature, and character of this Conservation Easement shall be as follows:
1. Recitals. The recitals hereinabove set forth are true and correct and are hereby
incorporated into and made a part of this Conservation Easement.
2. Purpose. It is the purpose of this Conservation Easement to retain land or water
areas in their natural, vegetative, hydrologic, scenic, open, agricultural or wooded condition and
to retain such areas as suitable habitat for fish, plants or wildlife. Those wetland and/or upland
areas included in this Conservation Easement shall be maintained in the conditions required by
the Management Plan.
To carry out this purpose, the following rights are conveyed to Grantee by this easement:
a. To enter upon the Conservation Area at reasonable times with any necessary
equipment or vehicles to enforce the rights herein granted in a manner that will not unreasonably
interfere with the use and quiet enjoyment of the Property by Grantor and/or the future residents of
the Property at the time of such entry; and
b. To enjoin any activity on or use of the Conservation Area that is inconsistent
with this Conservation Easement and to enforce the restoration of such areas or features of the
Conservation Area that may be damaged by any inconsistent activity or use;
3. Prohibited Uses. Except for the permitted activities, exotic vegetation removal,
replanting with appropriate native vegetation, vine control, removal of trash and debris or other
maintenance and monitoring activities described herein that are permitted or required by the
Resolution or the Management Plan, the following activities are prohibited in or on the Conservation
Area:
a. Construction or placing of buildings, roads, signs, billboards or other
advertising, utilities, or other structures on or above the ground;
b. Dumping or placing of soil or other substance or material as landfill, or
dumping or placing of trash, waste, or unsightly or offensive materials;
C. Removal or destruction of trees, shrubs, or other vegetation, except for the
removal of exotic or nuisance vegetation in accordance with the Management Plan;
d. Excavation, dredging, or removal of loam, peat, gravel, soil, rock, or other
material substance in such manner as to affect the surface;
e. Surface use except for purposes that permit the land or water area to
remain in its natural or enhanced condition;
f. Activities detrimental to drainage, flood control, water conservation, erosion
control, soil conservation, or fish and wildlife habitat preservation including, but not limited to,
ditching, diking and fencing.
4. Grantor's Reserved Rights. Grantor reserves all rights as owner of the Property,
including the right to engage in uses of the Conservation Area that are not prohibited herein and
which are not inconsistent with any County rule, criteria, permit and the intent and purposes of this
Conservation Easement.
5. No Dedicati . No right of access by the general public to any portion of the
Property or the Conservation Area is conveyed by this Conservation Easement.
6. Grantee's Liability. Grantee shall not be responsible for any costs or liabilities
related to the operation, upkeep or maintenance of the Conservation Area.
7. Acts Beyond Grantor's Control. Nothing contained in this instrument shall be
construed to entitle Grantee to bring any action against Grantor for any injury to or change in any
portion of the Property other than the Conservation Area that results from natural causes beyond
Grantor's control, and not initiated by the Grantor, including but not limited to fire, flood, storm
and earth movement. Should any Conservation Area be injured or changed from natural causes,
including but not limited to fire, flood, storm and earth movement, the Grantor shall be provided
notice and a reasonable opportunity to restore the affected Conservation Area to a condition that
satisfies the Management Plan requirements prior to the Grantee bringing any action for
noncompliance with the Resolution or the Management Plan.
8. Property Taxes. Grantor shall keep the payment of taxes and assessments on the
Conservation Area current and shall not allow any lien on the Conservation Area superior to this
Easement. In the event Grantor fails to extinguish or obtain a subordination of such lien, in addition
to any other remedy, the Grantee may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to pay the lien on behalf
of the Grantor and Grantor shall reimburse Grantee for the amount paid by the Grantee,
together with Grantee's reasonable attorney's fees and costs, with interest at the maximum rate
allowed by law, no later than thirty days after such payment. In the event the Grantor does
not so reimburse the Grantee, the debt owed to Grantee shall constitute a lien against the
Conservation Area which shall automatically relate back to the recording date of this Easement.
Grantee may foreclose this lien on the Conservation Area in the manner provided for mortgages on
real property.
9. EnforcementyGrjint • Enforcement of the terms, provisions and restrictions
of this Conservation Easement shall be at the reasonable discretion of Grantee, and any forbearance
on behalf of Grantee to exercise its rights hereunder in the event of any breach hereof by
Grantor or the Association, shall not be deemed or construed to be a waiver of Grantee's rights
hereunder.
10. Assignment. Grantee will hold this Conservation Easement exclusively for
conservation purposes. Grantee will not assign its rights and obligations under this Conservation
Easement except to another organization or entity qualified to hold such interests under the
applicable state laws.
11. Severability. If any provision of this Conservation Easement or the application
thereof to any person or circumstances is found to be invalid, the remainder of the provisions of
this Conservation Easement shall not be affected thereby, as long as the purpose of the
Conservation Easement is preserved.
12. Terms i1nd Restrictions. Grantor shall insert the terms and restrictions of this
Conservation Easement in any subsequent deed or other legal instrument by which Grantor divests
itself of any interest in the Property.
13. Written Notice. All notices, consents, approvals or other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed properly given if sent by United States
certified mail, return receipt requested, addressed to the appropriate party or successor -in -interest.
14. ModificationN. This Conservation Easement may be amended, altered, released
or revoked only by written agreement between the parties hereto or their heirs, assigns or
successors -in -interest, which shall be filed in the public records in St. Lucie County.
15. Extinguishment. If circumstances arise in the future such as render the purpose
of this Easement impossible to accomplish, this Easement can only be terminated or extinguished,
whether in whole or in part, by judicial proceedings in a court of competent jurisdiction, and the
amount of the proceeds to which Grantee shall be entitled, after the satisfaction of prior claims,
from any sale, exchange or voluntary conversion of all or any portion of the Property subsequent
to such termination or extinguishment, shall be determined, unless otherwise provided by Florida
law at the time, in accordance with paragraph 16. Grantor believes that any changes in the
use of neighboring properties will increase the benefit to the public of the continuation of this
Easement, and Grantor and Grantee intend that any such changes shall not be deemed to be
circumstances justifying the termination or extinguishment of this Easement. In addition, the
inability of Grantor to conduct or implement any or all of the uses allowed under the terms of
this Easement, or the unprofitability of doing so, shall not impair the validity of this Easement or
be considered grounds for its termination or extinguishment.
16. Proceeds. This Easement constitutes a real property interest immediately vested
in Grantee, which, for the purposes of paragraph 15, the parties stipulate to have a fair market value
determined by multiplying the fair market value of the Property unencumbered by the Easement
(minus any increase in value after the date of this grant attributable to improvements) by the ratio
of the value of the Easement at the time of this grant to the value of the Property, without deduction
for the value of the Easement, at the time of this grant. For the purposes of this paragraph, the
ratio of the value of the Easement to the value of the Property unencumbered by the Easement
shall remain constant.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD unto Grantee forever. The covenants, terms, conditions,
restrictions and purposes imposed with this Conservation Easement shall be binding upon Grantor,
and shall continue as a servitude running in perpetuity with the Property.
Grantor hereby covenants with said Grantee that Grantor is lawfully seized of said Properly
in fee simple; that the Property is free and clear of all encumbrances that are inconsistent with the
terms of this Conservation Easement; and all mortgages and liens have been subordinated to this
Conservation Easement; and that Grantor has good right and lawful authority to convey this
Conservation Easement; and that it hereby fully warrants and defends the title to the Conservation
Easement hereby conveyed against the lawful claims of all persons whomsoever.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
The 0.44± acre -property is located on the west side of Merry Bee Drive, north of Parkland
Boulevard (Figure l) in Section 9, Township 36 South, Range 40 East, adjacent to the North
Fork St. Lucie River, a Class III waterbody. The property is currently undeveloped and the
proposed project consists of constructing a single family residence on the property. While
the proposed residence will meet the 50-foot Shoreline Protection Zone, the residence will
require an associated drain field. Due to the limited size of the property, the drain field
cannot meet the required 300-foot setback from mean high water. This Preserve Area
Management Plan totals 0.16 acres (6,969 sq. ft.) and encompasses the 50-foot Shoreline
Protection Zone as measured from mean high water as well as the 50-foot wetland buffer for
those remaining areas not proposed to be impacted by the residence and associated structures.
2.0 SILT FENCING AND PROTECTION BARRICADES
Silt fencing and protection barricades during construction shall be provided per St. Lucie
County Land Development Regulations (Chapter 6.00.05 C). Silt fencing will be installed
and maintained to form a continuous unbroken boundary between the area of approved
impact (per approved site plan) and the Preserve Areas. Prior to commencement of any site
work the silt fence must be properly installed and must remain in good condition throughout
the duration of site construction. Special care shall be taken that the Preserve Areas are
properly marked and highly visible so that equipment operators can see the limits of
permitted construction activity.
The area which is the subject of this Preserve Area Management Plan will require planting
with native vegetation. Existing native trees that are to remain after construction shall be
protected according to the guidelines provided per St. Lucie County Land Development
Code (Chapter 6.00.05 C).
Protective barriers shall remain in place until removal is authorized by the Public Works
Director, or his designee (SLC ERD), or until issuance of a certificate of occupancy or other
use authorization as may be granted by the Public Works Director, or his designee (St. Lucie
County Environmental Resources Division). In the event that any protective barriers are
removed or altered, the Public Works Director, or his designee (St. Lucie County
Environmental Resources Division) is authorized to direct that all work at the site be stopped
until the barriers are restored and any necessary corrective actions taken as deemed
necessary by the Public Works Director, or his designee.
3.0 RESTORATION OF SHORELINE PROTECTION ZONE AND
WETLAND BUFFER
The restoration of the 0.11 acres (4,969 sq. ft.) of the Shoreline Protection Zone and the
wetland buffer is not proposed to include any canopy species due to the extent of the current
canopy species (Live oak and cabbage palm) already present in these areas. Also, as a
result of the existing native canopy, the amount of ground cover species has been reduced
to accommodate the current native vegetation. Quantities below per approved landscape
plan hence, installation of the following upon completion of exotic removal;
(49) 3-gallon Coontie palm (Zamia floridana), cocoplum (Chrysobalanus icaco),
and/or wild coffee (Psychotria nervosa)
(503) 1-gallon muhly grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris), and/or wiregrass (Aristida
stricta)
(1,104) bare root or liner sunshine mimosa (Mimosa strigillosa), wild plumbago
(Plumbago scandens), muhly grass (Muhlenbergia capillaris), wiregrass (Aristida
stricta), and/or peperomia (Peperomia obtusifolia)
The species planted will depend upon availability and plant numbers indicated are intended
to be total plantings which may consist of any combination of the plants identified under
each category (Figure 3). Any substitutions made to the list above shall require approval
by St. Lucie County Environmental Resources Division.
4.0 PRESERVE AREA MANAGEMENT
The Preserve Area will be maintained in accordance with this Preserve Area Management
and Maintenance Plan.
Property owners are encouraged to enjoy the natural beauty of their Preserve Areas.
Although development of Preserve Areas is not allowed, passive uses, such as bird -watching
and other non-destructive uses of natural areas are encouraged, as long as they do not affect
the hydrology or vegetative cover of a Preserve Area.
Activities prohibited in the Preserve Area include, but are not limited to: construction (other
than construction within the area designated for "No Planting" and identified in Figures 3
and 4); dumping or placing building materials, soil, garbage, trash, or dead vegetation on
or above the ground; removal or destruction of native trees, shrubs or other native
vegetation; excavation or dredging of soil; diking or fencing; vehicular traffic including use
by non -motorized vehicles, recreational vehicles and off -road vehicles; permanent
irrigation; trimming, pruning, or fertilization; and any other activities detrimental to
drainage, flood control, water conservation, erosion control or fish and wildlife conservation
and preservation.
No hazardous material other than fuel for refueling on -site equipment may be stored during
construction. On -site fuel tanks may not be located within twenty-five (25) feet of any
Preserve Areas and will be removed upon completion of construction work.
Development activities such as the construction of building pads for associated structures,
swales, or culverts for surface water management shall not alter the hydrology of adjacent
Preserve Areas. Nor shall any activities increase non -point source pollution in Preserve
Areas.
5.0 RESTORATION AND MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES
Except for approved construction activities, restoration, and maintenance activities; the
Preserve Area will be left undisturbed. All maintenance of the Preserve Area will be in
accordance with this PAMIVIP. Restoration and maintenance activities consisting of the
following may be allowed within the Preserve Area; exotic plant removal, re -vegetation
with native plants; and removal of plant material that is dead, diseased, or considered to be
a safety hazard.
5.1 EXOTIC PLANT REMOVAL
Exotic vegetation shall be removed from the Preserve Area by the least ecologically -
damaging method available. Such methods include hand pulling, hand spading,
cutting with hand or chain saws and in -situ treatment with appropriate herbicides.
No debris, including dead plants, plant clippings or wood scraps, shall be allowed in
Preserve Area. In addition, all dead plant material and exotic plant debris removed
from Preserve Areas shall be disposed of in a County -approved recycling facility.
5.2 RE -VEGETATION
Re -vegetation of the Preserve Area as a result of exotic removal or site construction
activities is identified in Section 3.0 of this PAMMP. Any future re -vegetation
which might be necessary as a result of exotic removal or site construction activities
shall consist of native plant species representative of the existing native plant
community. This will ensure that the Preserve Area maintains indigenous plant
associations.
The actual species to be re -planted will depend upon availability at native nurseries
at the time work is preformed. Any substitutions made to the list in Section 3.0 and
Figure 3 of this PAMMP shall require approval by the St. Lucie County
Environmental Resources Division.
5.3 VEGETATION REMOVAL
Dead or diseased plant material shall be removed from the Preserve Area upon
approval by the St. Lucie County Environmental Resources Division. Re -vegetation
may be required for any removed plant material. No debris, including dead plants,
plant clippings or wood scraps, shall be allowed in the Preserve Area. All dead plant
material and debris removed from Preserve Areas shall be disposed of in a County -
approved recycling facility.
5.4 OTHER RESTORATION AND MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES
Alternative and innovative management techniques, which may provide for the
long-term viability and habitat value of the Preserve Area and for protection against
imminent threats to public health and safety, may be approved by the St. Lucie
County Environmental Resources Division. In addition, the environmentally
friendly landscaping book, "Florida Yards and Neighborhoods Handbook"
referenced at: www.http://fvn.ifas.ufl.edu/materials/FYN Handbook vsept09.12df
shall be utilized for maintenance and restoration procedures, including but not
limited to the following:
a) Right Plant, Right Place
b) Water Efficiently
c) Fertilize Appropriately
d) Mulch
e) Attract Wildlife
f) Control Yard Pests Responsibly
g) Recycle
h) Reduce Stormwater Run-off
i) Protect the Waterfront
6.0 MONITORING AND REPORTING
Annual monitoring will be conducted by a qualified environmental professional no later
than March 1 st of each year. A report presenting the results of the annual monitoring will
be submitted by the environmental professional to St. Lucie County Environmental
Resources Division within thirty days of the completion of the monitoring. Included in the
Annual Monitoring Report will be a list of any violations of the PAMMP during the
previous year, with recommendations for, and a schedule of, remedial actions and any
enhancement activities proposed for the coming year. All Annual Monitoring Reports are
due no later than March 3 1 " of the year they are to be submitted. After the first five-year
period, the Preserve Area may be subject to further monitoring and maintenance to ensure
environmental integrity and consistency with the provisions of the Plan.
The monitoring plan includes one transect established through the Shoreline Protection
Zone (Figure 4) and one transect through the wetland buffer. Vegetative coverage will be
documented along the transect line and data collection/photo stations shown on the
Monitoring Plan Map (Figure 4). Panoramic photos will be collected from each of the
established monitoring stations to provide documentation of vegetative coverage. The
monitoring is to ensure the nuisance and exotic vegetation removal is successful.
Each monitoring report will include recommendations for maintenance if necessary. The
threshold for maintenance requirements will be any area that has five percent or more total
vegetative coverage by nuisance or exotic vegetation at any time during the monitoring
period. Maintenance of the upland buffer preserve will be provided in perpetuity by the
property owner in accordance with permit requirements.
7.0 PRESERVE AREA SIGNAGE
Preserve Areas will be posted with permanent signs. These signs will be at least 8%2 x 11
inches in size and will be posted in conspicuous locations along the Preserve Area boundary,
at a frequency of no less than one (1) sign per 100 feet. An example of the Preserve Area
Sign is included as Figure 5.
8.0 RESPONSIBILITY
Compliance with the terms of this PAMMP includes submittal of an Annual Monitoring
Report each year for a period of five years following completion of construction of the
residence. The owner(s) of the lands to be preserved shall have ultimate responsibility for
the submittal of all Monitoring Reports.
9.0 TRANSER OF OWERSHIP
The St. Lucie County Environmental Resources Division shall be notified in writing within
thirty (30) days of transfer of ownership of any lands preserved by this PAMMP. Failure
