PROVIDING AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida, has
made the following determinations:
1. The St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan establishes that land development shall not
be permitted unless adequate capital facilities exist or are assured; and.
2. The St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan establishes that a development shall, bear a
proportionate share of the cost of the provision of the new or expanded capital facilities
required by such development; and,
3. Policy 9.1.2.3 of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan recognizes the obligation of
future development in the community to be responsible for paying its capital
facility/improvement impacts; and,
4. St. Lucie County first adopted Road Impact Fees in 1985 and implemented fees in 1986
as an important source of revenue to use in funding the infrastructure necessitated by
new growth. Since then, the County has continued to periodically update its Road Impact
Fee Study, last updated and adopted on April 19, 2022.
5. The St. Lucie County Code of Ordinances encompass the adopted Impact Fees and
provisions for collection and utilization for public infrastructure and facilities to support the
community. This integral revenue source supports infrastructure essential to serve
growth but does not function as land development regulations. as defined in Chapter 163.
Part 11, Florida Statutes. in that they do not regulate or control the development of land
1
in the County, but merely impose a fee to fund capital facilities needed to accommodate
any new development.
6. The Florida Legislature, through the enactment of Section 163.31801 Florida Statutes,
has provided the opportunity for local governments to enact impact fees; and,
7. As specified in Section 163.31801, F.S., each local government that adopts and collects
an impact fee must ensure that the calculation of the impact fee is based on a study using
the most recent and localized data available within 4 years of the current impact fee
update and the new study must be adopted within 12 months of the initiation of the new
impact fee study if the local government increases the impact fee. The local government
must provide notice at least 90 days before the effective date of imposing a new or
increased impact fee.
8. Impact fees must be proportional and reasonably connected to, or have a rational nexus
with, the need for additional capital facilities and the increased impact generated by the
new development.
9. St. Lucie County ranks 19th out of 67 Florida counties in population, with a population of
approximately 385,000, The County is continuing to experience population growth, with
a projected county-wide increase of 145,000 persons by 2050, or an average annual
growth rate of 1.2 percent as estimated by the Bureau of Business& Economic Research
(BEBR), ranking 7th among Florida counties.
10. In 2024, St. Lucie County ranked 13th for residential permitting, indicating high levels of
new development. This continuing growth requires additional public capital facilities.
11. On July 17, 2025, the St. Lucie County Local Planning Agency/St. Lucie County Planning
and Zoning Commission held a public hearing on the proposed ordinance after publishing
notice in the St. Lucie News at least ten (10) days prior to the hearing and voted 4 to 1 to
recommend that the proposed ordinance and rate revisions be adopted with a January
1, 2026 updated rate commencement date.
12. On August 19, 2025, this Board held its first public hearing on the proposed ordinance
after publishing a notice of such hearing in the St. Lucie News on August 7, 2025, and
voted to continue the item to the September 16, 2025, regularly scheduled Board
meeting; and,
13. On September 16, 2025, this Board continued its first public hearing on the proposed
ordinance and voted to hold a Special Informal Board Meeting on November 18, 2025, to
2
discuss the proposed Multi-modal Impact Fee rates and schedule the second public
hearing on the proposed ordinance for the December 2, 2025, regularly scheduled Board
meeting; and,
14. On December 2, 2025, this Board held its second public hearing on the proposed
ordinance, after publishing a notice of such hearing in the St. Lucie News Tribune on
November 21, 2025.
15. The Technical Memorandum prepared by Nilgun Kamp, AICP, with Benesch (f.k.a
Tindale Oliver) dated September 2025 was revised to recognize the Institute of
Transportation Engineers (ITE) 12'h Edition, released in August of 2025. This Technical
Memorandum has been reviewed and adopted herein by reference.
16. The proposed amendments to the Roads Impact Fee Ordinance are consistent with the
general purpose, goals, objectives, and standards of the St. Lucie County
Comprehensive Plan and are in the best interest of the health, safety, and public welfare
of the citizens of St. Lucie County, Florida.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDAINED BY THE BOARD OF COUNTY
COMMISSIONERS OF ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA:
SECTION 1. AMENDMENT OF SECTION 24-256 OF THE ST. LUCIE
COUNTY CODE. Section 24-256 of the St. Lucie County Code, entitled Intents, Purposes,
and Findings, is hereby amended as follows:
Sec. 24-256. Intents, purposes, and findings.
(a) This article is intended to implement and be consistent with the goals, objectives and policies
of the county comprehensive plan.
(b) The purpose of this article is to ensure
that new development bears a proportionate share of the cost of capital expenditures
necessary to provide roads and transportation facilities in the county as contemplated by
the county comprehensive plan. For this article, including intent, purpose and findings,
"Roads Impact Fee Ordinance" is synonymous with the "Roads / Multi-modal Impact Fee
Ordinance" and Road Impact Fees are acknowledged as transitioning to "Multi-Modal"
Impact Fees to address transportation capacity more broadly.
(c) The state legislature, through the enactment of F.S. §§ 163.31801, has
provided for local governments to enact impact fees, including Road or Multi-modal impact
fees, as an important source of revenue for a local government to use in funding the
infrastructure necessitated by new growth
fafogr-am-
(d) The county is charged with the responsibility and control over all an array of
and-other roads, bridges, tunnels and related multi-modal facilities within the county road
3
and transportation system, in both unincorporated and incorporated areas, and thus is
charged with increasing the capacity of these facilities as provided in F.S. §§ 125.01(1)(m)
and 336.02.
(e) The Florida Transportation Code establishes the specific responsibilities of the Florida
Department of Transportation, the counties and the cities over the respective road systems
within the state. The authority over the county road system is specifically vested with and
preempted to the county.
(f) All new construction within the county in both unincorporated and incorporated areas
impacts the need for future improvements and additions to the county road and
transportation system. Accordingly, the provision by the county of roadway-transportation
capacity benefits all residents of the county, including residents of municipalities, and is in
the best interest of the public's health, safety and welfare. The Circuit Court of the Nineteenth
Judicial Circuit in and for St. Lucie County has previously considered and determined that
the county may impose and collect road impact fees within the boundaries of the
incorporated areas.
(g) Development necessitated by the growth contemplated in the comprehensive plan and the
roads multi-modal impact fee study will require infrastructure improvements and additions
to the roads and transportation system to accommodate the new development generated
by such growth and maintain the standards of service provided by the transportation system.
(h) There is a rational nexus between future growth, as measured by new construction, and the
need to expand the Roads and Transportation System through the acquisition and
construction of new Buildings, apparatus, equipment, land, transportation improvements,
and other Infrastructure and related mobility facilities in order to maintain the standards of
service currently provided by the Roads and Transportation System. The Roads Multi-modal
Impact Fees adopted herein for each Impact Fee Land Use Category are proportional to
impact expected to be generated by new construction.
(i) The Board has determined that ad valorem tax revenue and other revenues will not be
sufficient to provide the infrastructure improvements to the Roads and Transportation
system that are necessary to accommodate new construction within the county.
(j) The County, through funding to the Roads and Transportation System, has a responsibility
to provide transportation and related mobility facilities for the movement of vehicular, bicycle.
and pedestrian traffic within both the unincorporated and incorporated areas of the County.
The Roads and Transportation System benefits all new construction occurring within the
County, and, therefore, the Roads Multi-Modal Impact Fees shall be imposed throughout
the County, including within municipalities.
(k) Future growth should contribute its fair share to the cost of the infrastructure improvements
to the reads transportation system including related mobility facilities for the movement of
motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians that are required to accommodate the impact
generated by such growth.
(I) The county has broad economic development powers pursuant to F.S. § 125.045. Pursuant
to these powers, the county has chosen to establish the potential to provide a discount to
road impact fees to remain competitive economically with surrounding communities.
SECTION 2. AMENDMENT OF SECTION 24-257 OF THE ST. LUCIE
COUNTY CODE. Section 24-257 of the St. Lucie County Code, entitled Imposition of
roads impact fee is hereby amended as follows:
4
Sec. 24-257. Imposition of roads Imulti-modal) impact fee.
(a) Any person who seeks to develop land within the county by making improvements to land
which will generate additional traffic and which requires the issuance of a building permit for
any land development designed or intended to permit a use of land which will contain more
dwelling units, buildings or square footage than the existing use of land, or to otherwise change
the use of the land in a manner that increases the impact upon the roads and transportation
system or applies for an electrical permit for recreational vehicle parks or mobile home parks
shall be required to pay a roads multi-modal impact fee in the manner and amount set forth in
this article. Nothing in this article shall be deemed to eliminate the requirements of Section
11.02.07 of the County Land Development Code.
(b) The obligations herein for the payment of the reads multi-modal impact fee shall apply to all
new construction that applies for a building permit on or after the applicable implementation
date set forth in section 24-258. No building permit or electrical permit for a recreation vehicle
park or mobile home park for any activity requiring payment of an impact fee pursuant to
section 24-258 shall be issued unless and until the roads multi-modal impact fee hereby
required has been paid.
SECTION 3. AMENDMENT OF SECTION 24-258 OF THE ST. LUCIE COUNTY
CODE. Section 24-258 of the St. Lucie County Code, entitled Computation of the Amount of
Roads Impact Fee, is hereby amended as follows:
Sec. 24-258. Computation of the amount of roads (multi-modal) impact fee.
(a) All new construction occurring within the County shall pay the following
Roads Multi-modal Impact Fee as a condition of issuance of a Building
Permit or Electrical Permit, as provided in Section 24-257, for such
construction:
