concurrent Category I Wetland Waiver to develop a twenty-four (24), 3-story multi-family

Indian River Lagoon with associated parking, drainage, and utility infrastructure on the
subject property. The project is located in the HIRD (Hutchinson Island Residential District)
Zoning located at 10251 S. Ocean Drive in Jensen Beach, approximately one (1) mile north
of the Martin County border.
3. Senate Bill 250, approved by the Governor on June 28, 2023, and effective July 1, 2023,

dates for such permits or other authorizations from six (6) months to twenty-four (24)
months per state of emergency(plus the duration of the emergency declaration), but limiting
the extended period under overlapping states of emergency to forty-eight (48) months.

behalf of the property owner filed a request to toll and extend the termination date for the
Majestic Bay Major Adjustment to Major Site Plan with the associated Category 1 Wetland
Waiver pursuant to Executive Orders 24-235, (Hurricane Ian), Executive Order 24-116
(Hurricane Nicole) and Executive Order 24-214 and 24-215 (Hurricane Milton), issued by
the Governor declaring states of emergency.
5. Florida Statute Section 252.363 provides that any local government issued development
order or permit may be extended from the period remaining for the duration of the
emergency declaration sixty (60) days plus twenty-four (24) months.
