RE: Finished floor waiver
Dear Mr. Whiteside
Please accept this letter in response to your written request received October 16, 2018 to waive the finished floor elevation of 18” above the crown of the road. The waiver request is
for a proposed metal storage building at 4120 Selvitz Road, Ft. Pierce, FL 34981.
Pursuant to Section 7.04.01(C-3) of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, the Planning and Development Services Director has the authority to grant administrative relief, when
topographical conditions are such that compliance with this subsection would be impracticable or cause grade level conditions detrimental to adjacent or nearby property, consistent
with the intent of the Flood Protection regulations and any other applicable portion of this Code.
The Planning and Development Services Director has granted your request for administrative relief of the finished floor elevation based on the following determinations:
1 The proposed metal storage building is in Flood zone X.
2 The elevation of the center line of adjacent road is 16.90’ NAVD.
3 The proposed finished floor elevation will be 16.97’ NAVD which is 0.07’ above the center line of the road.
4 The proposed building is intended for vehicular access and equipment storage only. It is not intended for occupancy and the interior will not be finished.
5 It is not feasible to raise the floor without significant reworking of the existing site.
This approval does not in any way constitute authorization to begin construction. Prior to the commencement of any construction on this property, an application for specific building
permit must be obtained from this department.
Please feel free to contact me at (772) 462-2822 if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
Leslie Olson, AICP
Planning and Development Services Director
