9. PUBLIC HEARINGS
A. COUNTY ATTORNEY
1. Amending Section 8.02.02 of Land Development Code, Paragraph J - Particular
Temporary Uses Permitted
This item was presented by Assistant County Attorney Katherine Barbieri. On April 7,
1998, the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance No.
1998-002 which provided for the creation of paragraph (J) authorizing special vehicle
and boat sales events on -sites not approved for the permanent display. Since the
adoption of the code, County staff has received complaints that this temporary use has
issues. The complaints were in regards to garbage, salespeople sleeping on -site, and
banners. There were complaints on the usage of more spaces than allowed per the
permit. The offsite temporary vehicle and boat sales use an extraordinary amount of
parking spaces as a space is required for the item being sold and a space for the
customer. Additionally, if the customer trades in a vehicle a space is required for the
trade in. The complaints in regards to offsite vehicle and boat sales raise public health
safety concerns. To protect the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the County,
an amendment is needed to assure orderly use of property and to protect the safety of
motor vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians and the vendors at temporary special vehicle and
boat sale events.
On September 4, 2018, the Board of County Commissioners authorized Permission to
Advertise for the amending Section 8.02.02 of Land Development Code, Paragraph J for
public hearing before the Planning and Zoning Commission and two public hearings
before the Board of County Commissioners. On October 18, 2018, the Planning and
Zoning Commission approved the ordinance unanimously. On November 13, 2018, the
Board held the first public hearing concerning the draft ordinance and the Board
scheduled the second public hearing for December 4, 2018. Notice of this public hearing
was published in the local newspaper.
This was the second of two public hearings. Staff recommended the Board approve the
proposed draft ordinance.

B. PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT SERVICES
1. Covenant Reformed Presbyterian Church of Fort Pierce & St. James Christian Academy
(Educational Services, Grades 6-9) - Conditional Use Permit
Senior Planner Kori Benton presented this item. The applicant, Covenant Reformed
Presbyterian Church of Fort Pierce, and operator, St. James Christian Academy, are
requesting a Conditional Use Permit to allow for educational services (Grades 6-9) at an
existing church campus established across a +/-7.83-acre property located at 5150
Oleander Avenue. Notice of this public hearing was published in the local newspaper,
letters were mailed out to property owners within 500 feet of the petition site and a
sign was posted on the premise.
The proposed school would provide services to up to 125 students, grades 6-9,
distributed between twelve (12) classrooms within an existing 6,600 sq. ft. building on
the north side of the site. The proposed facility would function as an extension of the
existing St. James Christian Academy operation to the south.
The proposed educational facility is consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of
the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Public School Facilities Element. The proposed
school will positively impact the level of educational services provided, helping to
ensure overall capacity for schools is sufficient to serve the residents in St. Lucie County.
Established residential neighborhoods adjacent to the school site will be provided
access to additional education options.
Educational services and facilities are allowed in the Institutional Zoning District as a
Conditional use in accordance to Land Development Code (LDC), Section 3.01.03.X.7.f.
17:T��/[�1�LyeTi�[�I►
On August 19, 1997, the Board of County Commissioners granted a conditional use
permit, via Resolution 97-096, authorizing a 120 student educational facility of this
property. The educational operation was abandoned many years ago, causing the
conditional use to expire.

Regular Meeting Tuesday, December 4, 2018 6:00 PM
The Board of County Commissioners, on July 24, 2018, approved Resolution 18-118
authorizing a Conditional Use for a portion of St. James Christian Academy's private
school operation on the site immediately to the south.
Staff recommended approval of the conditional use request subject to conditions
presented within the staff report and resolution.
Chairman Bartz opened the hearing for public comment at this time. There being no one
wishing to address the Board, Chairman Bartz closed the public hearing.
Chairman Bartz noted this item is quasi-judicial and asked for Commissioners'
disclosures:
• Commissioner Dzadovsky stated he spoke with staff,
• Commissioner Hutchinson stated she spoke with staff,
• Commissioner Mitchell stated he sat on the Planning & Zoning Board and the
information presented today is a repeat of what P&Z approved,
• Chairman Bartz stated she spoke with staff.
