PUBLIC HEARINGS A. PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES 1.Orange Avenue 35 AC PNRD - Rezoning & Preliminary Site Plan - PD-2304-000027 - THIS ITEM IS QUASI-JUDICIAL This public hearing was Quasi -Judicial, and the commissioners made the following disclosures regarding this item: Commissioner Jamie Fowler - Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Linda Bartz - Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Larry Leet- Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Chris Dzadovsky - Spoke with staff only. Chair Cathy Townsend - Spoke with staff and Tod Mowery. Irene Szedlmayer, Senior Planner, and Kori Benton, Planning Manager of Planning & Development Services presented this item to the Board. Redtail Design Group has submitted a petition to re -zone a property located at 126 Shinn Road, on behalf of the property owners. The re -zoning aims to change the current Agricultural-1 (AG-1) zoning to Planned Non -Residential Development (PNRD). Along with this, a Preliminary Site Plan has also been submitted. The property is situated in the West Orange Mixed Use Activity Area. Following the public notice requirements of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, an advertisement for the public hearing was published in the St. Lucie County Tribune on November 2, 2023, and notices were mailed to 18 adjacent property owners located within a 500 feet radius, and signs were placed on Orange Avenue and Shinn Road. Redtail Design Group has submitted a petition to re -zone a property located at 126 Shinn Road, on behalf of the property owners. The re -zoning aims to change the current Agricultural-1 (AG-1) zoning to Planned Non -Residential Development (PNRD). Along with this, a Preliminary Site Plan has also been submitted. The property is situated in the West Orange Mixed Use Activity Area. The subject site is an approximately 387-acre free-standing Urban Services Boundary and additional land east and west of Shinn Road and north and south of Orange Avenue is designated low intensity. The proposed Zoning Atlas only affects the subject 35-acre property, and it will become a Planned Non -Residential Zoning District. The proposed Orange Avenue Preliminary Development Plan proposes permitted, conditional and accessory uses consistent with the Industrial Light Zoning District and the West Orange Low Intensity MXD Activity Area. No public transit serves this area. The Preliminary Development Plan proposes the creation of three lots 10.96 acres, 11.92 acres, and 11.98 acres each fronting Orange Avenue. The proposal increases the minimum rear and side setbacks above Industrial Light minimum standards when the development abuts agricultural lots or estate residential lots, from 20 ft. to 25 ft, and from 10 ft. to 20 ft., respectively. The maximum building height is 60 ft., and the maximum building cover cannot exceed 50%. The building height of 60 feet exceeds the limit allowed in the industrial zone, which allows buildings up to 50 feet in height. However, it is still lower than the limit allowed in the agricultural zoning district. There are no building footprints, stormwater, or parking details at this time which will come with the final site plan. All non-residential and residential yard perimeter buffer areas should have an 8ft tall masonry wall or opaque wood fence to form a continuous 7 1 P a g E BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, November 14, 2023 9:00 AM screen. Which includes a continuous hedge along both the inside and outside base of the wall or fence, with trees planted every 30 ft. along the length of the wall or fence. In addition to the opaque wall/fence, the Land Development Code requires a minimum 10 ft. wide landscape buffer along the north and west side boundaries, adjacent to Orange Avenue and Shinn Road. The Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the amendment to the Zoning atlas and the associated Preliminary Development Plan to the Board subject to the conditions identified by staff in the staff report and drafted resolution. Staff recommends that the Board adopt Resolution 2023-217 approving the re -zoning and Preliminary Planned Non -Residential Development Site Plan, subject to the conditions identified in the staff report and draft resolution, authorizing the Chair to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney. Commissioner Dzadovsky commented on the buffering setbacks, surrounding residents, and the adopted standards. Chair Townsend opened the hearing for public comment at this time.

Commissioner Linda Bartz - Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Larry Leet- Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Chris Dzadovsky - Spoke with staff only. Chair Cathy Townsend - Spoke with staff only. Kori Benton, Planning & Development Services Planning Manager, presented this item to the Board. 8 1 P a g e BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, November 14, 2023 9:00 AM Following the public notice requirements, notices were placed in the local newspaper, mail notices were sent to property owners within 500 feet of the subject property, and a sign was placed on the property. The property is located north of Orange Avenue, along the west side of the Jenkins Road extension north of Orange Avenue due north of Loop Road abutting the canal that runs parallel to and south of Floyd Johnson Road. The petitioned undeveloped site is a combination of two parcels 34 acres in size located within the Urban Service Boundary (USB). The property is currently owned by Joseph Miller and the petitioners are Lori and Richard Tambone of the Tambone Companies. They are partnering with representatives from the Engineering and Design Construction Team to pursue the petition. The site is located within the Mixed -Use Development (MXD) Future Land Use category, specifically within the Loop Road Mixed -Use Activity Area, and inside the Urban Service Boundary (USB). In August of 2002, the Board updated the activity area's Low - Intensity subarea to support Light Industrial/ Warehouse land uses, including flex space buildings to support the demand in the area. The Planned Development (PNRD) process provides an opportunity to transition use and design from Orange Avenue north to the canal south of Floyd Johnson Road, replacing the Agricultural Residential-1 and Commercial General (CG) districts with compatible industrial light activities that will support Interstate -side industrial and distribution facilities in this segment of the Orange Avenue corridor and business hubs adjacent to the Interstate 95 interchange. The rezoning from AR-1 Agricultural, Residential-1 (AR-1), and Commercial General (CG) to the Planned Non - Residential Development Zoning District and preliminary site plan proposes multiple industrial buildings totaling approximately 374,000 sq. ft., two proposed dry detention areas, one 1 proposed lake, and associated site improvements. The proposed plan acknowledges the need for improvements to North Jenkins Road, through the project entrance, and utility extension to the site. Landscape buffers are proposed along the perimeter of the property, in conformance with the requirements. Outward plantings will be enhanced on the north side of the project through the addition of an upland buffer and littoral plantings with the sizable lake. The proposed rezone petition is coupled with a Preliminary Site Plan, with water and wastewater services to be extended to serve the site. The PNRD design has the intentional placement of stormwater areas between proposed buildings and residential parcels to the north. The Planning & Zoning Commission considered the petition at their October 19, 2023, meeting, and voted unanimously to recommend approval with conditions to the Board. Also, the applicant hosted a neighborhood meeting. Staff recommended the Board approve the petition via Resolution 2023-218, authorizing the Chair to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney, subject to the present condition of approval in the staff report based upon consistency with the County's Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner Dzadovsky commented on the water and sewer extensions. Staff advised Fort Pierce Utilities (FPUA) would be the provider for the area. Chair Townsend opened the hearing for public comment at this time. The following people addressed the Board. • Brad Currie (agent) With no one else wishing to address the Board, Chair Townsend closed the public hearing. The Board did not have further questions or comments on this item. A motion was made to approve staff recommendations, and it passed unanimously. 9 1 P a g e BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, November 14, 2023 9:00 AM RESULT: APPROVE MOVER: Commissioner District 3 Linda Bartz SECONDER: Commissioner District 4 Jamie Fowler AYES: Cathy Townsend, Linda Bartz, Chris Dzadovsky, Larry Leet, Jamie Fowler NAYS: None EXCUSED: None 12. REGULAR AGENDA A. ENVIRONMENTAL RESOURCES 1. Gamboa Residence Comprehensive Plan Policy 6.1.14.2 Wetland Waiver - JUDICIAL This public hearing was Quasi -Judicial, and the commissioners made the following disclosures regarding this item: Commissioner Jamie Fowler - Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Linda Bartz - Spoke with staff only. Commissioner Larry Leet- Spoke with staff and applicant. Commissioner Chris Dzadovsky - Spoke with staff only. Chair Cathy Townsend - Spoke with staff Donna Smalls. Aimee Cooper, Environmental Regulations Manager, and JoAnn Riley, Properties Acquisition Manager, presented this item to the Board as a Category I Wetland Waiver request on behalf of Crisanto Gamboa for Lots 6&7. Located on the west side of Merry Bee Drive and directly abuts an oxbow of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. The subject parcel lots 6&7 were recorded on March 11, 1926. The County Comprehensive Plan classifies wetlands into three categories based on their size, location, and hydrologic connectivity to adjacent water bodies. Category I wetlands are those that are hydrologically connected to a natural surface water body, are 20 acres or larger, or contain Strategic Habitat Conservation Areas. Impacts to a Category I wetland or its buffer may only be approved by the Board following Comprehensive Plan Policy 6.1.14.3. The subject parcel is zoned Residential Single-family (RS-3) at 3 units/acre with a future land use of residential urban. The surrounding properties to the north, east, and south are also zoned RS-3 with a residential urban future land use, and to the west is a conservation public property known as Idabelle Island. In 2004, the subject parcel contained two jurisdictional wetlands as determined by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP). The 1,960 s.f. wetland on the northern portion of the parcel was filled between the issuance of the 2004 FDEP permit and 2009, for the construction of a single-family residence. In 2019, an updated FDEP jurisdictional determination was provided to the applicant for a proposed single- family residence and identified a total of .10-acre jurisdictional wetlands on site, which is part of a larger wetland system that continues offsite to the south. The Army Corp of Engineers (ACOE) supported the FDEP determination and issued an After -The -Fact Permit in 2020. The remaining 0.34 acres of onsite habitat consist of a mowed upland area, of which 0.17 acres make up the required wetland buffer and 0.10 acres make up the required 50 ft. shoreline buffer along the North Fork. The conceptual site plan consists of a single-family residential structure totaling 2,394 s.f., which results in 101Page BOCC Regular Meeting Tuesday, November 14, 2023 9:00 AM 0.04 acres of direct fill impacts to the wetland, and the remaining development impacts are proposed within the associated 50 ft. wetland buffer. Per Comprehensive Plan Policy 6.1.14.3, the Board may grant a wetland waiver to impact a Category I wetland or its associated buffer when no other reasonable alternative exists, and avoidance and minimization of impacts cannot otherwise be achieved. The staff reviewed the subject waiver request and made the following determinations: • The proposed project was previously approved on September 21, 2021. However, the waiver expired after 12 months from the date of adoption. • The proposed site use is consistent with the surrounding neighborhood. • Staff requested reducing the size and/or configuration of the proposed residence, resulting in the residential structure being shifted east, away from the shoreline. • The strict criteria for granting a Category I wetland waiver detailed in the Comprehensive Plan Policy 6.1.14.3, require avoidance and minimization of impacts to the greatest extent feasible while still allowing reasonable use of the property. Following review of this application with the current proposed site plan and the strict criteria for avoidance and minimization of direct impacts on a Category I wetland and/or its associated upland buffer. The staff has determined this proposed site plan meets the avoidance and minimization criteria and therefore, recommends approval to the Board. Staff recommended the Board adopt Resolution 2023-219, approving the Category 1 Wetland Waiver for a single-family residence subject to the conditions outlined in the resolution and allowing the Chair to sign documents approved by the County Attorney.ai County Attorney Commissioner Dzadovsky commented on the additional adjustments made to the site proposal. Staff advised there were no changes from the 2021 approval to the current approval. He expressed concerns about the water and sewer systems, as well as the use of the well/septic system to direct flow into the North Fork River. He also mentioned updated requirements for the anaerobic system. Chair Townsend advised the upgraded anaerobic septic system will be a requirement by the Florida Statute as of 2024. The Board did not have any further questions or comments on this item. A motion was made to approve staff recommendations, and it passed unanimously.
