LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA. WHEREAS, the St. Lucie County Planning and Development Services Director has reviewed the request fora development order extension timely submitted by Joseph D. Grosso. Jr. Esq, and has made the following determinations: 1. On February 22, 2023, the Board of Adjustments granted approval through Resolution 2023-003 for a Variance request to deviate from the minimum lot width, established by Section 7.04.01 (Table 7-10) - Lot Size and Dimensional Requirements of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC), within the HIRD (Hutchinson Island Residential District)Zoning District. The applicant proposes a reduction in the required 75-foot lot width by 5.1 ft., to a minimum width of 69.9 ft. for the subject lot, to allow for the future construction of a single-family residence. 2. On September 23, 2022, Governor DeSantis issued Executive Order Number 22-218 declaring a state of emergency for certain counties in the State of Florida, including St. Lucie County, as a result of the threat of Tropical Storm Nine. This emergency declaration was effective on September 23,2022, and would have expired, 60 days later, on November 22, 2022. The Governor also issued Executive Order 22-219 on September 24, 2022, expanding the state of emergency to cover the entire State of Florida. 3. On November 7, 2022, Governor DeSantis issued Executive Order 22-253 declaring a state of emergency for certain counties in the State of Florida, including St. Lucie County, as a result of the impending Subtropical Storm Nicole. This emergency declaration was effective on November 7, 2022, and would have expired 60 days later, on January 6, 2023. However, subsequent executive orders have continued to extend Executive Order 22-253, specifically extending orders 23-02, 23-48, 23-87, 23-133, 23-170, 23-211 and 24-32. 4. On November 21, 2022, Governor DeSantis issued Executive Order 22-268 extending the state of emergency declared in previously issued executive orders 22-218, and 22-219. The extension of the state of emergency was necessitated by the continued recovery efforts and the continued recovery of affected people hit by Hurricane Ian, which still required the support of the State of Florida. This emergency declaration was effective on November 21, 2022, and would have expired, 60 days later, on January 20, 2023. However, subsequent executive orders have continued to extend executive orders 22-218 and 22-219, specifically extending orders 22-268, 23-21, 23-60, 23-104, 23-139, 23-176, 23-214, 24-02 and 24-36. 5.
