AN ORDER OF THE PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
DIRECTOR OF ST. LUCIE COUNTY GRANTING APPROVAL FOR A
MINOR ADJUSTMENT TO A MAJOR SITE PLAN KNOWN AS
TROPICANA PROJECT MIDWAY FOR A PROPERTY LOCATED IN ST.
LUCIE COUNTY.
WHEREAS, the St. Lucie County Planning and Development Services Director has reviewed the
request for a Minor Adjustment to a Major Site Plan submitted by Engineering Design &
Construction, Inc., on behalf of Tropicana Manufacturing Co., evaluated the comments of the St.
Lucie County Development Review Committee on this application, and made the following
determinations:
1. Engineering Design & Construction, Inc., submitted a Minor Adjustment to a Major Site
Plan on behalf of Tropicana Manufacturing Co., to subdivide the two (2) parcel site
totaling 310.62 acres into three (3) parcels; Parcel 2 totaling 30.08 acres, Parcel 3
totaling 90.55 acres, and the remaining Parcel 1 consisting of 189.99 acres,
encompassing the primary manufacturing, processing and rail facilities. The subject
property is located within the IL (Industrial, Light) and IH (Industrial, Heavy) Zoning
Districts and is described in Part "B".
2. On March 5, 1991, the Board of County Commissioners through Resolution No. 1991-021
approved a 544,520-square-foot expansion for Tropicana. The project has obtained
multiple site plan adjustments, with the most recent site plan modification approved on
July 1, 2010, to permit a 992 sq. ft. building addition to an existing bulk pulp facility, add
three (3) parking handicap parking spaces, and other related infrastructure (driveways,
landscaping, etc.,) improvements.
3. The Development Review Committee has reviewed the proposed Minor Adjustment to
Major Site Plan and found it to meet the standards of review as set forth in Section
11.02.07 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code.
4. Planning staff performed a detailed analysis of the project and found it to be consistent
with the St. Lucie County Land Development Code and Comprehensive Plan. The
analysis can be found in the Planning and Development Services Department
memorandum titled Tropicana Project Midway - Minor Adjustment to a Major Site Plan
(MNSP-2402-000098), dated June 6, 2024.
5. The proposed site plan modification will not have an undue adverse effect on adjacent
properties, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, parking, utility facilities,
or other matters affecting the public health, safety, and general welfare.
6. All reasonable steps have been taken to minimize any adverse effect of the proposed
project on the immediate vicinity through building design, site design, landscaping, and
screening.
