LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA WHEREAS, the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida, has made the following determinations: 1. On August 9, 2014, Smokey Bear celebrates his 701h birthday, which also marks his wildfire prevention campaign as the longest running public service campaign in U.S. history. Smokey's message is as relevant today as it was in 1944. In fact, his message is even more relevant today as people are living closer and closer to natural areas - so no retirement for Smokey! 2. The Florida Forest Service, Okeechobee District, is responsible for educating the public in the best practices to prevent wildfires and educating homeowners on how to reduce their wildfire risk in a six county area, including St. Lucie County. 3. In the last five years, Florida Fire Service, Okeechobee District, State Wildland Firefighters have responded to over 155 wildfires in St. Lucie County that have burned 3,017.3 acres. 4. When the Florida Forest Service is NOT actively engaged in fighting wildfires, they are conducting prescribed burns, mowing and chopping vegetative fuels in high wildfire risk areas in St. Lucie County to reduce the size and intensity of a wildfire near communities. In the last five years, the Florida Forest Service provided 5,365 burn authorizations to local ranchers, farmers and land managers to prune, clean and remove insects and exotics. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, Florida: 1, This Board does hereby proclaim August 9, 2014, as "THE 70TH BIRTHDAY OF SMOKEY BEAR" and congratulate Smokey on his continued efforts to remind citizens to be careful when using fire in natural areas in St. Lucie County, Florida. 2. This Board also commends the men and women of the Florida Forest Service fortheir partnership with St. Lucie County and Smokey Bear in wildfire prevention and mitigation.

Schrader Nabors Giblin & Nickerson, P.A. 1500 Mahan Drive, Suite 200 Tallahassee, Florida 32308 Re: Application for Refund Dear Ms. Schrader: Wansley Walters, Secretary On January 9, 2014, you submitted to Chief Financial Officer Atwater, (copies to Secretary Walters) applications for refunds, on behalf of several counties, for "overpayments" made to the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) for fiscal years 2009 through 2012. Your request was made pursuant to s. 215.26, F.S., and Rule 69I-44.020, F.A.C. You agreed to hold the request in abeyance until after the 2014 Legislative Session. The Legislature acted by not appropriating any funds to the department for the perceived overpayment. Having reviewed the applicable rule and statutes, DJJ has determined that the counties are not eligible for a refund pursuant to this process. Section 215.26, F.S., addresses "taxpayer" overpayments. The funds expended by the counties were for secure detention services provided to youth who were residents of those counties. They were not taxes. That section also provides that refunds may be made to "the person who paid same, or his or her heirs, personal representatives, or assigns..." Counties are governmental entities, not persons, for the purpose of the statute, and are, therefore, not eligible for a refund. In addition, s. 985.686, F.S., provides the process for the counties to get credits for overpayment of their obligation to fund the secure detention system. Therefore, the DJJ respectfully denies the Applications for Refunds submitted on January 9, 2014. The counties have thirty (30) days within which to file an action in circuit court or to appeal the denial to the district court of appeal pursuant to Chapter 86 and Section 120.68, Florida Statutes, respectively. Sincerely, Brian Berko General Counsel cc: Jeff Atwater, Chief Financial Officer 2737 Centerview Drive • Tallahassee, Florida 32399-3100 • (850) 488-1850 http://www.djj.state.fl.us The mission of the Department of Juvenile Justice is to increase public safety by reducing juvenile delinquency through effective prevention, intervention, and treatment services that strengthen families and turn around the lives of troubled youth.

Get Connected GetAns►vers, 211 Palm Beach/Treasure Coast HeCy ,'Ale Grow ,fact Sheet Help Me Grow (HMG) is part of a national initiative that is designed to identify children at -risk for developmental or behavioral disabilities and connect them with appropriate community services. This program was designed to respond to questions and concerns of families while providing access to resources that could offer early detection for health and developmental issues. If developmental, behavioral and other health concerns are detected early, the best outcomes can be secured for children and their families. Help Me Grow (HMG) is a simple solution that builds on existing resources. HMG is an efficient and effective system — with a proven track record in other parts of the country — that assists communities in identifying at -risk children, then helps families find community -based programs and services. Help Me Grow (HMG) does not provide direct services. Rather, it is a system for improving access to existing resources and services for children through age eight. HMG offers information, resources and materials; referrals with enhanced advocacy and follow up; screenings for health and development; enrollment in community programs; and networking opportunities for service providers and community partners. Through comprehensive physician and community outreach and a centralized information and referral center, families are linked with needed programs and services. Help Me Grow has four core components: 1. Child healthcare provider outreach to support early detection and intervention. 2. Community outreach to promote use of Help Me Grow and to provide networking opportunities among families and services providers. 3. Centralized telephone access point for connecting children and their families to services and care coordination. 4. Data collection to understand all aspects of the Help Me Grow system, including the identification of gaps and barriers. Help Me Grow Florida has assembled two active state leadership teams, Miami and Hillsborough. In both counties 211 has been the organizing agency for the program. Successes and continued planning center on the following core components in these two and future areas to come: 1. Collaboration within each county to establish a Centralized Access Point and Care Coordination for follow-up, information and referral, and screenings using the Ages and Stages Questionnaire. 2. Assessment of gaps and barriers in services and programs for early childhood development. 3. Establishment of a plan for community outreach and collaboration with service agencies. 4. Development of plans to promote sharing information and resources with parents, encouraging universal early developmental screenings, and providing support to those requiring additional assistance. 3 0 a� 0 J 0 U 3 to a� L a� m E CU a d a� Cn U M U_ 3 0 c� as a E x c as E r a Packet Pg. 29 7.C.3 ITEM NO.

The City's Utility Department has applied for a right-of-way permit to extend City water services under Rangeline Road to the McCarty Ranch property. A copy of the permit application and supporting documentation is attached, including the additional "Special Conditions of Right -of -Way Permit" which are as follows: 12. Except for utility service to Applicant, no utility service shall be provided through the subject utility installation to any properties other than Applicant's property without the written consent of the Utility District Board. 13. Applicant agrees that the County retains and reserves the right to construct water mains, wastewater mains or reuse water mains which cross or parallel the subject utility installation to provide utility service to any customers and properties within the County Utility District's utility service territory. Since the City's water line would extend into the County Utility District utility service area, approval of the City's permit request would require the consent of the County Utility District Board pursuant to Section 153.86, Florida Statute and GDU Transfer Agreement.

The Facilities Maintenance Division is in the process of contracting with Prime Coat to utilize this system on three showers that are in the worst condition and are located in Delta North Dorm 1 and Delta East Dorms 8 and 9 of the jail (see attached email from Lt. Dan O'Brien.). The cost to repair these showers is estimated at $36,000 and will be funded from the existing jail maintenance budget. Prime Coat Coating Systems manufactures and installs a proprietary shower coating system that is specifically used in detention centers. It has a track record of controlling mold, mildew and microbes using a moisture proof barrier. It has become the corrections industry standard for new or retrofitting showers, in part, due to the fact that it can't be removed, ingested or used as a weapon.

It is holding up well, and is cleaning up well. The other areas need to be addressed now, as soon as possible, regardless of an budgetary constraints, as it poses a serious safety concern both for staff and inmates. I visited D1S-131 yesterday and saw paint missing from the shower wall. It is obvious it is peeling away from the wall, as you can see from the photo. My main concern however is not the peeling paint— it is the ease of removal and the thickness of the paint on the wail. The piece I easily broke off can be immediately used as a weapon, if not later fashioned into something even more elaborate. Not only did it break off with a sharp point but sharp edges as well. Our security deputy, Clinton Williams is following up reporting on all the dorms. Joey, could you also follow up with Deputy Williams so that you are both aware of the problem areas firsthand? 1, as well as all of us I am sure, do not want to see anyone hurt, and also don't want the taxpayers to have to pay out money due to an injury. Can you please look into this right away and let us know how this will be remedied? Thank you Lt.

Employee Safety & Risk Manager, George Landry, welcomed me and accompanied me on the safety survey. 1 surveyed the SLC Jail at the invitation of Mr. George Landry to review the current condition of the Jail showers and to discuss the proposed shower coating project. Our findings follow. FINDINGS A. St. Lucie County Jail Delta 1 and Delta 2. General: SLC Jail has received a proposal to recoat the showers in Delta 1 and Delta 2. The proposal presented recommends completing the process in 19 phases. 1. Current Shower Conditions. The showers we inspected are either covered or coated with an epoxy or rubber coating. The first shower we inspected was more recently coated and the coating was in very good condition. The second epoxy coated shower was older and beginning to separate from the shower wall. We were easily able to break off a piece of the epoxy coating. The broken piece was a few inches long with sharp edges. The last shower we inspected was coated with a rubber finish and it was beginning to separate at the seams and pulling away from the wall. 2. Recommendations. The epoxy coating installed by Prime Coat appears to be a very durable and seamless enclosure for shower walls. The first shower we inspected was in very good condition and did not appear to need recoating at this time. The second shower is breaking apart and is in need of quicker attention. The rubber coated shower is serviceable but may need attention in time. Packet Pg. 76 405 Oakwood Avenue Waukegan, IL 60085 Pn . .... P- 847 362�5111 ... . ... x >_ ^..847-3 62-514 9 ....

Pierce Farms Canal No 1 to the Indian River Lagoon Intra-coastal Waterway. The total project involves the removal of approximately 150,000 cubic yards of muck sediments to restore Taylor Creek to original design depth or hard sand bottom. The accumulation of sediments over the past 40 years represents a threat to the health of the seagrasses in the Indian River Lagoon Estuary. Once the sediments are removed, Taylor Creek will function as a silt trap to accumulate silt before it is discharged to the Indian River Lagoon. In addition, the navigation channel will be restored to its full depth to benefit the public. Currently, Phase 1 of the dredging has been completed. Approximately 100,000 cubic yards of muck sediments have been dredged from the navigation channel, east of the Railroad Bridge.

RES-2014-102 J COUNTY ` R I ID A AGENDA REQUEST TO: Board of County Commissioners PRESENTED BY: Laurie Waldie, Utility Director SUBMITTED BY: Utilities DATE: 07/15/2014 *CONSENT AGENDA\UTILITIES SUBJECT: Resolution 2014-102 - Water & Sewer District's 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan BACKGROUND: The County must complete the legislative requirement to prepare its "10-year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan" (Water Supply Plan) which if necessary would include revision of the County's Comprehensive Plan Sub -Elements, Potable Water & Sanitary Sewer of the Infrastructure Element, and possibly some sections of the Conservation, Capital Improvements, and Future Land Use Elements. With the adoption of the EAR based amendments in October 2010 and the annual Capital Improvement Element in December 2013 it was not necessary to amend any of the Goals, Objectives and Policies (GOP) of the County's Comprehensive Plan. A few sections in the Data Inventory and Analysis of the Infrastructure Element were updated and shown in Appendix C of the attached Water Supply Plan. As no revisions were needed to the GOP, acceptance and approval by reference of the Water Supply Plan is by resolution. The completed Water Supply Plan includes information for the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District and small utility facilities in St. Lucie County. The Port St. Lucie Utilities, Fort Pierce Utilities Authority and St. Lucie West have their own Water Supply Plans and have not been included. The Water Supply Plan coordinates with the most recent South Florida Water Management District's Upper East Coast Water Supply Plan. The work plan includes: 10-Year water demand projections; Identification of current and proposed facilities and supply sources to meet the demands; and The 5-Year Capital Improvement Projects to meet the needs identified above.

In 2005, the State Legislature modified Chapters 163 and 373, Florida Statutes (F.S.) to improve water supply and land use planning between the five water management districts, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, and the State. In 2006, the legislature further amended Chapter 163, F.S., requiring local governments to prepare 10-year water supply facilities work plans. At the time of the 2005-2006 regulatory changes, 4 of Florida's 5 water management districts determined that water supply sources would not be sufficient to provide potable drinking water over the next 20 years. These districts (excluding the Suwannee River Water Management District) prepared supply plans identifying the deficiencies within their respective areas. St. Lucie County (County) was included in the South Florida Water Management District's (SFWMD) study area and was evaluated as part of the Upper East Coast (UEC) Water Supply Plan. The UEC Water Supply Plan indicated that the County's supply sources and water treatment facilities could not sustain growth for the next 20 years without modifications. Each utility within the County, public or private, was then required to submit a 10-year water supply facilities work plan, to include: ■ 10-year water demand projections; ■ Identification of current and proposed facilities and supply sources to meet the demands; ■ Identification of funding sources for each identified proposed facility; ■ Revised 5-year Capital Improvement Projects to meet the needs identified above; and ■ Updates of relevant Comprehensive Plan Sub -Elements (water, sanitary sewer, conservation, etc.). As part of the effort, the County also updated the Comprehensive Plan relative to the other public and private utilities within the County boundaries. The plan, which was completed in 2008, is required to be updated every 5 years. The following provides an update to the previously submitted work plan. The updated plan coordinates with the 2011 UEC Water Supply Plan Update approved by SFWMD governing Board March 10, 2011. 1.2 Overview of Work Plan The following work plan is intended to provide information pertinent to water and wastewater facilities owned by the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District (District). There are a number of public utilities within the County, such as the City of Port St. Lucie (City), Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) and St. Lucie West (SLW). These utilities were required to submit individual 10-years Water Supply Facilities Work Plans. Therefore, information specifically related to these utilities has been excluded from this Plan. Private utilities also exist within the County, including Spanish Lakes, the Reserve, Meadowood (formerly Panther Smith jj1502_Section l.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved 1-1 Packet Pg. 165 Section 1 • Introduction 7.R.2.a Woods), Harbor Ridge, etc. These utilities are generally smaller than their public counterparts, and therefore, are included in the County's Work Plan in lieu of completing individual plans. The information provided relative to the private utilities in the subsequent sections of this Plan was provided by and/or confirmed by the individual utilities prior to inclusion. 1-2 Smith jj1502_Section 1.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved Packet Pg. 166 7.R.2.a Section 2 Water Supply Facilities 2.1 Service Areas The service area for each of the four public utilities is shown on Figure 2-1. The locations of each private utility within the County's service area are also shown on Figure 2-1. The City's service area extends beyond the City limits. These areas are shown as "Utility Service by Others" on Figure 2-1. Additionally, FPUA services portions of the County's service area through a bulk user agreement that took effect on February 10, 2004. The FPUA bulk agreement provides potable water to approximately 14,000 people within the County's "unincorporated" service area, primarily in the northern portion of the County. The agreement's expiration date is officially February 10, 2034; however, the County gave the required 5 year notice informing FPUA of its intent to construct new County -owned facilities on March 11, 2005. Additionally, the County gave the required 15 year notice to FPUA to terminate the bulk water, wastewater and sewer agreement on April 4, 2013. Upon termination of the contract, the County will service the current bulk water customers with new, County -owned regional treatment facilities, enter into discussions regarding formation of a new regional utility (with a joint authority), or potentially renegotiate a new bulk agreement. This plan assumes that the County will provide service to the majority of its customers through the construction of new, regional treatment facilities. The portion of FPUA's capacity allocated to the County via the bulk user agreement is considered "frozen" as of March 10, 2010 (per the 5-year notice provided in 2005), at which time FPUA will maintain all customers served through the agreement. With the termination of the bulk agreement notice issued on April 4, 2013, FPUA will no longer retain any bulk customers unless an area was renegotiated to remain a bulk customer. In the future, the County will provide potable water service to new customers via one of the four planned regional water treatment plants (WTP) described further in subsequent sections of this Plan. The County's total service area consists of 242,100 acres. The north county service area (57,800 acres), central county service area (96,500 acres) and south county service area (87,800 acres) represent the portion of the County's service area that is not served by the Holiday Pines WTP, H.E.W. WTP or through the FPUA bulk water agreement. A copy of the bulk user agreement is provided in Appendix A, along with a copy of the 5-year and 15-year notices to FPUA. 2.2 Summary of Water Utilities As noted in Section 1, the City, FPUA, and SLW are not included in this Plan due to the requirement that each utility prepares an individual plan; however, the private utilities within the County that are not within the City limits of Port St. Lucie, SLW or the service area of FPUA are included in this plan. The following provides a summary of each utility's system. A summary of the public and private WTPs in the County, excluding the City, FPUA and SLW, is provided in Table 2-1.

The WTP was acquired in July 1999 from the Holiday Pines Service Corporation and is part of the North County Service Area. The portion of the North County Service Area served by the Holiday Pines WTP includes the Holiday Pines subdivision and some commercial and residential areas fronting Kings Highway and Indrio Road.The existing Holiday Pines facility has a permitted capacity of 0.5 million gallons per day (mgd). Average daily flow at this facility in 2013 was 0.112 mgd. The Holiday Pines WTP serves a population of approximately 2,435 people. The FPUA bulk user agreement serves all of the County's mainland customers that are not served by the Holiday Pines WTP or the H.E.W. WTP described below. Additionally, the North Hutchinson Island Service Area is served via bulk water purchased from FPUA. A small subdivision located within the Lakewood Park neighborhood is served by the H.E.W. WTP, which was built by the developer of the subdivision in 1976 and serves approximately 223 residents (108 lots). In 1995, the developer declared bankruptcy and the County took over ownership and operation of the facility The WTP has a permitted capacity of 0.04 mgd, with no plans for future expansion. The remainder of the Lakewood Park subdivision, currently served by private wells, will be served by the proposed North County Regional WTP (described below) once it is constructed. The H.E.W. WTP will be decommissioned once the new facility is on line. Chapter 62-555.348, Florida Administrative Code, requires public water systems to prepare Capacity Analysis Reports when "the total maximum -day quantity of finished water produced by all treatment plants connected to a water system, including water produced to meet any fire -flow demand but excluding water produced to meet any demand that the supplier of water documents to be highly unusual and nonrecurring, exceeds 75 percent of the total permitted maximum -day operating capacity of the plants, the supplier of water shall submit source/ treatment/storage capacity analysis reports to the Department [FDEP] " While the existing Holiday Pines WTP is below this 75 percent threshold, anticipated growth in the North County service area or the towns, villages and countryside developments, as well as proposed developments throughout the unincorporated area have caused the County to begin planning for long- term water supply for a much larger population than the current customers in the northern area of the County. It has been projected that neither the planned expansion of the Holiday Pines WTP nor the bulk user agreement with FPUA will be adequate to meet future demand. Smith 2 3 jj1502_Section 2.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved Packet Pg. 169 7.R.2.a Section 2 • Water Supply Facilities In March 2008, the County received a new water use permit to allow for withdrawals from the Upper Floridan Aquifer to provide raw water to four proposed regional WTPs. The first planned facility will be located at the North County Regional site, northwest of the County's airport along Taylor Dairy Road. Other proposed locations for regional WTPs include a northwest developer site (formerly the Cloud Grove Development), a central County location (in close proximity to the County's Fairgrounds), and a south County location in the vicinity of Rangeline Road. Each of the regional facilities is anticipated to have between 2 and 4 mgd of capacity at initial start-up (as determined by development), with provisions for expansion to 6 mgd as needed. Current plans include design of the North County Regional WTP commencing in Fiscal Year 2016/2017, with construction beginning the following year. This regional facility will include 4 mgd of capacity initially and will be fed by five upper Floridan Aquifer Wells (4 primary and 1 standby). The North County WTP plans will include provisions for a future expansion to 6 mgd, if needed. Concentrate disposal from each site will be via deep injection well. Concentrate from the Holiday Pines WTP will be re-routed from the Holiday Pines Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) to the North County Regional WTP deep injection well once the WWTP is decommissioned. In addition, on December 6, 2011 and September 18, 2012, St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District executed separate Settlement Agreements with Grove Land Utilities and Bluefield Utilities (a subsidiary of Evans Utilities, which is in turn a subsidiary of Evans Properties), respectively. The Settlement Agreements provide these Utilities with the opportunity to: 1. Supply water for biofuel production. 2. Sell bulk water to municipalities or other large water users. 3. Provide water and wastewater for future development as approved by the Board of County Commissioners. 4. Perform environmental services such as water retention or cleansing facilities to meet water quality standards. Both utilities also filed applications with the Florida Public Service Commission to obtain a certification of a public utility with territory in St. Lucie and Martin Counties. Although a service area was established for each of the two utilities, it is not anticipated that a public water supply project would be developed to the point of providing potable water service to customers within those service areas prior to the next update to this 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan. Therefore, the population projections contained herein have not been modified to reflect a shift of population from the St. Lucie County service area to either of the newly established service areas. Should the utilities develop supply projects prior to the next Plan update, modifications to the projections will be made at that time. 2.2.2 Spanish Lakes 2.2.2.1 Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park The Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park is owned by the Wynne Building Corporation. Potable water service is provided via an on -site WTP consisting of aeration and disinfection. Raw water is provided via four surficial aquifer wells. The permitted capacity of the WTP is 0.480 mgd. The existing population within the mobile home park is 2,600. 2-4 SDmith jj1502_Section 2.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Righ Packet Pg. 170 7.R.2.a Section 2 • Water Supply Facilities 2.2.2.2 Spanish Lakes Fairways Spanish Lakes Fairways is a private development that reached a build -out population of 3,200 people in 2004. Potable water service is provided via an on -site reverse osmosis WTP with a permitted capacity of 0.930 mgd. Raw water is supplied to the WTP by four 8-inch wells constructed into the surficial aquifer. 2.2.3 Meadowood Meadowood Golf and Tennis club, formerly Panther Woods, owns and operates a lime softening WTP that is permitted to produce up to 0.432 mgd of potable water. The historical peak day production is approximately 0.2 mgd. The WTP, fed by three 8-inch surficial aquifer wells, was refurbished in January 2008. The WTP currently serves approximately 930 residents, which is expected to increase to 1,053 residents at buildout. 2.2.4 Harbour Ridge Harbour Ridge Country Club is a private community that relies on their on -site water and wastewater treatment facilities to provide services to approximately 1,573 residents. The Harbor Ridge WTP is permitted to produce 0.360 mgd from surficial aquifer wells. The development is currently built out and there are no plans for expansion of the WTP. 2.3 Raw Water Supply While FPUA and the City currently rely on mixed systems from the surficial and Floridan aquifers and SLW relies fully on the Floridan, existing public and privately owned facilities within the County's service area rely solely on surficial aquifer wells. These wells are constructed to an average depth of approximately 100 feet or less below land surface. The County's proposed regional WTPs will all rely on withdrawals from the Upper Floridan Aquifer. A summary of the permitted conditions for each WTP in the County's service area is provided in Table 2-2. Table 2-2 also includes the permitted conditions for the proposed Floridan aquifer withdrawals for the County.

All Rights Reserved Packet Pg. 171 7.R.2.a Section 2 • Water Supply Facilities 2.4 Alternative Water Supply Projects Due to limitations on withdrawals from the surficial aquifer at the Holiday Pines WTP, specifically due to potential impacts on neighboring wetlands, the County went through the process to identify alternative raw water supplies to meet future demands. The 2006 amendment to the UEC Water Supply Plan prepared by the SFWMD identified the need for the County to consider a North County WTP to meet future demand. As a result, the County has pursued and received a water use permit to withdraw from the Upper Floridan Aquifer to feed a series of new regional WTPs. In addition to identifying an alternative water supply, the County has identified critical path projects to meet future needs for both potable water and reclaimed water. The following is an updated list of capital improvement projects identified by the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District. Water and Wastewater Capital Improvement Projects ■ North County Regional WTP ■ Expansion of the Holiday Pines WTP ■ Holiday Pines WTP concentrate disposal line ■ Upper Floridan Aquifer production wells at the North County Regional WTP ■ Deep Injection Well co -located with North County Regional WTP and Water Reclamation Facility (WRF) ■ 1 million gallon storage tank on North Hutchison Island ■ Groundwater storage tank at the Fairgrounds ■ Rangeline Road potable water interconnect ■ Water Main on Rangeline Road, Glades Cut-off Road to County Line ■ Water Main on Rangeline Road, Glades Cut-off Road to Midway Road ■ Lakewood Park water distribution mains ■ WTP in southwestern section of the County's service area (beyond 10-year planning horizon) ■ WTP in northwestern section of the County's service area (beyond 10-year planning horizon) ■ North County Regional WRF (co -located with North County Regional WTP) ■ North Hutchinson Island WRF expansion ■ North Hutchinson Island WRF Clarifier Refurbishment ■ North Hutchinson Island Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) Project ■ North Hutchinson Island lift station rehabilitation 2-6 SDmith jj1502_Section 2.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc.

This will mark the County's transition into a major regional utility system and will require significant funding. The County will fund the various projects through a combination of bonds, utility impact fees or connection fees, Alternative Water Supply funding, State Revolving Funds Loans, assessment projects and other available grant programs. Some of the larger projects may be constructed by developers and then turned over to the County to own and operate (via contract operations). Any long- term borrowing required to fund the projects will be repaid with utility rates, fees and charges. A breakdown of anticipated project funding for the 10-year planning horizon (2013 — 2023) is provided in Table 2-3. A breakdown of the corresponding revenue sources is provided in Table 2-4.

Similar to the potable water system, there are several privately owned WWTPs located within the County's service area. 3.2 Summary of WWTPs and WRFs As noted in Section 1, the City, SLW and FPUA are not included in this Plan due to the requirement that each utility prepares an individual plan; however, the private utilities within the County that are not within the City limits of Port St. Lucie, SLW or the service area of FPUA are included in this plan. The following provides a summary of each utility's wastewater system and reclaimed water system (where applicable). A summary of the public and private WWTPs and WRFs in the County, excluding the City of Port St. Lucie, SLW and FPUA, is provided in Table 3-1.

WWTP 0.0200 - Proposed North County Regional WRF 2.0000 4.0000 3.2.1 St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District owns three primary existing water reclamation facilities (WRF) that serve North Hutchinson Island, South Hutchinson Island and Holiday Pines, respectively. Additionally, the County operates small WWTPs at the Fairwinds Golf Course and in the Lakewood Park Subdivision (H.E.W. WWTP). There are also plans to construct four regional WRFs, as described in the following subsections. 3.2.1.1 North Hutchinson Island WRF The North Hutchinson Island WRF serves a population of approximately 9,018 residents and has a permitted capacity of 0.5 mgd. There is a planned expansion to increase capacity at this facility to 0.85 mgd. The construction permit has been issued. Funding for the project is approved, and the construction contract was approved by the BOCC on July 1, 2014. The North Hutchinson Island WWTP produces reclaimed water and disposes of 100 percent of the effluent via public access irrigation. Wet weather when the demand for irrigation is low is to the dunes. Smith jj1502_Section 3.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved 3-1 Packet Pg. 176 7.R.2.a Section 3 • Wastewater Facilities 3.2.1.2 South Hutchinson Island WRF The South Hutchinson Island WRF was designed to serve a build out population of approximately 15,150 residents and has a permitted capacity of 1.6 mgd. The facility currently operates at approximately 50 percent of the design capacity and fluctuates due to the high occurrence of seasonal residents. This WRF also produces 100 percent reclaimed water irrigation purposes to minimize the reliance on potable water for irrigation activities. Wet weather discharge is achieved through the FPL ocean outfall canal just north of the WWTP. 3.2.1.3 Holiday Pines WRF The Holiday Pines WRF serves a population of approximately 2,435 residents and has a permitted capacity of 0.3 mgd. The WWTP is also the disposal site for the Holiday Pines WTP's reverse osmosis concentrate, which is piped directly to one of the seven percolation ponds on site at the WRF. The County is currently in the process of converting the existing WWTP to a WRF by adding tertiary treatment systems for the production of reuse quality effluent. The future reclaimed water will be provided to the Island Pines Golf Course. The improvements to the WRF will include the addition of new disc filters and reuse storage facilities. Treated effluent from the current WWTP is disposed of via the percolation ponds. The improvements will not interrupt the existing plant operations or impact the current percolation pond configuration. The Notice to Proceed for the improvement project was awarded in March 2014 and should be complete by April 2015. With the proposed construction of a regional WRF at the North County site, the Holiday Pines WRF is anticipated to be decommissioned in the long term and the wastewater (and concentrate) will be redirected to the new facility. 3.2.1.4 Fairwinds Golf Course WWTP The Fairwinds golf course WWTP is a 0.0223 mgd modular facility that treats wastewater from the golf course clubhouse and the industrial park area between the golf course and the airport. The WWTP produces reclaimed water that is utilized for on -site irrigation. The County has plans to decommission this WWTP and serve the golf course from the proposed North County Regional WWTP (see below). 3.2.1.5 H.E.W. WWTP The H.E.W. WWTP in the Lakewood Park neighborhood was constructed by the developer of the subdivision. When the developer filed for bankruptcy, the County took over operations of the facility and filed for a permit in 1995. The WWTP has a permitted capacity of 0.020 mgd and treated effluent is disposed of via a single on -site percolation pond or is hauled off site if insufficient capacity is available in the percolation pond. This facility is intended to be decommissioned and the flow will be redirected to the North County Regional WRF once construction is complete. 3.2.1.6 Proposed Regional WRFs The County purchased a parcel of land to the northwest of the airport along Taylor Dairy Road and Indrio Road with the intention of co -locating a regional WTP (as described in Section 2.2.1) and WRF. The proposed North County Regional WRF will be similar in design to that of the South Hutchinson Island Facility and will be built with an initial capacity of 2 or 4 mgd, as determined by development. It is anticipated that this WRF will be constructed in FY 2017/2018. The County's proposed North County system will include plans for expansion of the reclaimed water system for the distribution of reclaimed 3-2 Smith p1502_Section 3.docx ©2014 CD All RigPacket Pg. 177 7.R.2.a Section 3 • Wastewater Facilities water from the proposed facility. The proposed reclaimed system expansion (primarily in the northern service area) is illustrated on Figure 3-1. The North County Regional WRF will be a 100 percent reclaimed water facility, with wet weather disposal via a proposed deep injection well. The North County Regional WRF will also treat redirected wastewater from the Holiday Pines, Fairwinds Golf Course and Lakewood Park WWTPs, which are planned to be decommissioned once the new facility is on line. In addition to the North County Regional WRF, the County intends to construct 3 regional WRFs throughout the unincorporated County, consistent with the plans for the corresponding WTPs described in Section 2. The South County Regional WRF will be located north of Glades Cut-off Road, with an exact location to be identified at a future date. Expansion plans for the central service area have not been developed to the point of preparing a similar figure. Each facility's size and ultimate location will be determined by the growth patterns experienced in the unincorporated County areas over the next several years. The timing for the construction of the final 3 regional facilities will be highly dependent on growth patterns in the unincorporated areas of the County. 3.2.2 Spanish Lakes 3.2.2.1 Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park The Spanish Lakes Country Club owns and operates an extended aeration WWTP with a permitted capacity of 0.160 mgd. The WWTP was designed to serve a build out capacity of 3,040 residents, or 1,300 lots. The mobile home park is currently at build out capacity with no plans for expansion. Treated wastewater effluent is disposed of via a drainfield and percolation pond on site. 3.2.2.2 Spanish Lakes Fairways Spanish Lakes Fairways provides wastewater treatment via an extended aeration WWTP with a permitted capacity of 0.250 mgd, and is designed to serve a build out population of 3,200 residents. The WWTP produces reclaimed water that is used for irrigation of the development's private golf course. There is an on -site storage pond (lined) for reclaimed water storage during periods where production exceeds demand for irrigation water. 3.2.3 Meadowood Meadowood, formerly Panther Woods, owns and operates an on -site WWTP with a permitted capacity of 0.180 mgd, but is limited to 0.105 mgd due to the size of the existing chlorine contact basins. The facility serves a current population of approximately 1,040 residents. Treated effluent is supplemented with well water and used to irrigate the 120-acre Meadowood golf course. 3.2.4 Harbour Ridge Harbor Ridge Country Club owns and operates an onsite WWTP with a permitted capacity of 0.120 mgd. The WWTP serves the development's 1,570 residents, which represents build out of the community. There is no anticipation of additional growth within the built -out community and consequently, no plans for expansion of the WWTP. The Harbor Ridge WWTP produces reclaimed water for irrigation within the community and utilizes 100 percent of the available supply. Smith jj1502Section 3.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc.

With the completion of the Holiday Pines WRF improvements in April 2015, all of the WRFs in the County's service area produce reclaimed water for irrigation purposes, with the exception of the H.E.W. WWTP. This facility is planned to be decommissioned when the North County Regional WRF is constructed. By maximizing the amount of reclaimed water available for irrigation purposes, the demand for potable water to meet these demands is inherently reduced. Additionally, the County has implemented a number of additional water conservation -based elements, as described below. 1. Section 1.20-5.40 of County Ordinance 07-054 requires residents who install automatic sprinkler systems to install rain sensor devices. The use of rain sensors on all irrigation systems reduces the use of automatic sprinkler systems during periods of wet weather. 2. The County Code requires the use of low flow plumbing fixtures in accordance with the State Building Code. 3. The County has developed a Utility Leak Detection and Repair Program to insure that unaccounted for water losses are less than 10 percent. Historically, the County's unaccounted for water total has been less than 5 percent. The leak detection program includes water auditing procedures and infield leak detection and repair programs. The County also utilizes Neptune Meters (AMR T-10), which are equipped with a secondary dial that is sensitive enough to detect slow leaks in addition to totalized monthly flows. 4. The County has implemented a water conservation education program that includes print materials and inserts in customer bills to keep the customers informed of current water issues facing the County. 5. The County has implemented a conservation based rate structure that encourages water conservation. Inclining rates have been adopted for residential water, irrigation, commercial water and multi -family (MF) water customers are as follows: Range (gallons) 0 — 5,000 Residential $ 3.37 Consumption Multi -Family Charge (per Commercial $ 3.37 000 Irrigation Reclaimed $ 3.05* 5,001— 10,000 $ 6.06 $ 4.56 10,001— 15,000 $ 8.08 $ 5.58 15,001 and above $ 9.43 $ 6.43 0 — 2,500 $ 3.37 2,501— 5,000 $ 6.06 5,001— 7,500 $ 8.08 7,501 and above $ 9.43 0 — 15,000 $ 8.08 15,001 and above $ 9.43 *All ranges of consumption charged flat $3.05/1,000 gal for reclaimed water. Smith jj1502_Section 3.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved 3-5 Packet Pg. 180 7.R.2.a Section 3 • Wastewater Facilities 6. In November 2007, the Board of County Commissioners approved an irrigation ordinance that restricts the hours of irrigation to minimize evaporation and maximize the efficiency of watering. The ordinance also created a water shortage plan allowing the Board to enact water restrictions at any time, regardless of the status of water restrictions in place by SFWMD. The SFWMD restrictions supersede the County's restrictions when both are in place. 7. Section 7.09 of the County's Land Development Code requires the use of native vegetation in approved landscaping plans. Utilization of native vegetation reduces the need for irrigation water, thereby promoting water conservation. 3-6 Smith jj1502Section 3.docx ©2014 CD All Rig h Packet Pg. 181 7.R.2.a Section 4 Future Land Use and Population Projections 4.1 Future Land Use In accordance with Rule 163.3177(6)(a), Florida Statute, the County is required to ensure that the future land use plan is based upon the availability of adequate water supplies, public facilities and services. The population projections described in the following subsections are based on existing approved future land use maps, zoning maps and the corresponding densities for each land use designation. As new developments are approved by the County, and where applicable the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity, land use designations will be changed as needed and approved to accommodate the growth. As the designations are changed, the County has the opportunity to revise the population projections used to obtain the water use permit to reflect increased densities. Once revised, the County will apply for modifications to the WUP to obtain additional withdrawals, as needed, to match demand brought on by the increase in population. 4.2 Population Projections 4.2.1 Projections from the BEBR and Shimberg Centers The population within unincorporated St. Lucie County continues to increase as more and more developers develop property further to the west. Historically, the portion of the total County population that resides in the unincorporated areas has been approximately 27 percent. The University of Florida Bureau of Business and Economic Research (BEBR) publishes projections for municipalities and Counties throughout Florida. This Plan relies primarily on the medium BEBR projections for planning purposes. It should be noted that the overall County population projections used for planning relative to schools, road improvements, etc. are higher than those used for water supply planning. This is due to the fact that other County services, such as schools, law enforcement, fire protection, roads, etc., serve the entire existing County population (including the existing unincorporated County residents described below) and plans for future residents. Water supply planning focuses primarily on new customers/residents who do not currently receive potable water from an existing facility or private well. In 2007, the existing population in the unincorporated County was approximately 72,000 people. These residents are served via existing WTPs (public and private) or private wells. The March 2013 update to the Shimberg Center population projections reduced the count of residents in the unincorporated County to 71,417 in 2015 and 71,887 in 2020 (only offered in 5-year increments). In the 2008 10-Year Water Supply Plan, the future water demands beyond the capacity of the existing WTPs, the existing population was subtracted from the adjusted Shimberg Center projections referenced above. The resulting population projections represent new, future customers that would require an alternate water supply/WTP for potable water service. Additionally, it was assumed that approximately 1 percent of the existing population currently served by on -site wells would apply for connection to a potable water system when available. Since the Shimberg Center has since adjusted the projections down, the estimates provided in the 2008 Plan are now considered to be slightly more conservative; as a result, no adjustments were made to the Smith4-1 jj1502_Sect1on 4.docx ©2014 CDM Smith Inc. All Rights Reserved Packet Pg. 182 7.R.2.a Section 4 • Future Land Use and Population Projections projections previously provided. The resulting projection of new water customers and the corresponding demand is presented in Table 4-1.

For planning purposes, the County anticipates that the future demand will require construction of new WTPs and cannot be met through the existing Holiday Pines WTP or the FPUA bulk user agreement (which flat lined capacity in 2010 and will terminate in 2028). The County's historical per capita usage associated with the Holiday Pines WTP is 71 gallons per capita per day (gpcd); however, with a larger regional system, the per capita usage is anticipated to be approximately 110 gpcd. The resulting demand for the 10-year planning horizon is presented in Table 4-1. Also presented in Table 4-1 is the anticipated growth, where applicable, for each of the private utilities within the County's service area. 4.2.2 Additional Anticipated Growth St. Lucie County, like much of Florida, experienced a significant increase in population between 2004 and 2005. While the development boom has since subsided, there are still a few Developments of Regional Impact (DRI) for which applications have been submitted to the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council. These developments (Capron Lakes, Visions at Indrio and North Hutchinson Island Hotel - Ruffin Properties) have applications that are currently under review by the TCRPC, but there is no date -certain for development to begin. In keeping with allowable projection methods outlined by the SFWMD and DECI, the County has limited the population projections within this plan to approved developments only. 4-2 Smith jJ502_seetioo 4.doex ©2014 CD All Rlgh Packet Pg. 183 7.R.2.a Section S Comprehensive Plan Updates 5.1 Affected Elements In the process of developing the 2008 Work Plan, the County's Comprehensive Plan was updated in accordance with Chapters 163 and 273 of the Florida Statues. At the time, the County's Comprehensive Plan was organized such that multiple elements and sub -elements were affected, as follows: ■ Chapter 1— Future Land Use Element ■ Chapter 6A — Potable Water Sub -Element ■ Chapter 6D — Sanitary Sewer Sub -Element ■ Chapter 8 —Conservation Element ■ Chapter 11— Capital Improvements Element In 2010, the Comprehensive Plan was reorganized and several of these elements were combined. The modified comprehensive plan was adopted on October 26, 2010 and is updated periodically to reflect current conditions. For the purpose of this update to the Work Plan, the following Sections of the County's Comprehensive Plan are attached as Appendices: ■ Section 1— Future Land Use ■ Section 4— Infrastructure ■ Section 9 — Capital Improvements No updates to the Future Land Use or Capital Improvements elements were made specifically for the purpose of updating this Water Supply Facilities Work Plan. Current versions of each of these elements are provided for informational purposes only. Minor modifications were made to the Infrastructure Element, as noted below. 5.2 Future Land Use Element The 2010 update of the comprehensive plan simply referred to the 2008 Water Supply Plan and Utility Master Plan as the prevailing planning documents for utility service. As a result, this element did not require updating due to changes made specifically herein. It should be noted, however, that the Future Land Use Element deals primarily with overall County population projections, and less specifically with unincorporated County projections.

The supporting data a provides a broad survey of current land use patterns, natural land features, and availability of public facilities for existing and future development. Future land use patterns are depicted on the Future Land Use Map. >% 0 r Planning Timeframes w The St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan provides guidance on development and redevelopment over two N planning periods: a 5-year period ending FY 2015 (short term) and a 20-year period ending FY 2030 (long o term). v Co N EXISTING LAND USE CONDITIONS v) w General Description St. Lucie County is located along Florida's southeast coast, in the upper reaches of the South Florida geographic region. Locally, this area is referred to as Florida's Treasure Coast because of the many Spanish Treasure Galleons shipwrecked along this part of the coast. The County comprises approximately 600 square miles, of which approximately 440 square miles are unincorporated area and subject to the land use and regulatory authority of the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners. The balance of the County consists of territory located within the incorporated municipalities of Fort Pierce, Port St. Lucie, and St. Lucie Village. Physiographically, the County is divided into three primary regions: the Atlantic Coastal Ridge (including the barrier islands), the Eastern Valley and the Osceola Plain. The dominating physiographic region of the east/central portion of the County is known as the Eastern Valley. The Valley extends from the Atlantic Coastal Ridge to the central part of the County. Elevations in this area range from 15 to 30 feet above sea level. The land within this area falls generally to the southeast. The vast citrus and ranching areas of central and western St. Lucie County are contained within the physiographic areas known as the Sebastian/St. Lucie Flats, Allapattah Flats and the Osceola Flats. Excepi where drained for agricultural activities, these areas are characteristically pocketed with surface wetlands and have limited natural drainage. Elevations in this area are in the range of 30 to 60 feet, with the general fall of the land being from the northwest to the southeast. The Atlantic Coastal Ridge forms the eastern border of the County and includes the coastal barrier island, locally known as Hutchinson Island, the Indian River Lagoon and the ridge which lies east of the North and South Savannas and parallels Indian River Drive. Elevations range from sea level to about 15 feet on the barrier islands to as much as 50 feet along the western shorelines of the Indian River Lagoon. The western terminus of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge lies approximately along the eastern edge of the Savannahs, both north and south of Fort Pierce. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-1 Future La Packet Pg. 211 7.R.2.a Located within the Eastern Valley is the single principal freshwater estuary in St. Lucie County, the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. Secondary water courses include the North Fork's two primary tributaries, Five Mile and Ten Mile Creeks. An unconnected freshwater marsh network, known as the Savannas, is located immediately to the west of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge. The Savannas represent a vanishing natural feature that was once found along the entire length of the Indian River Lagoon, from Volusia County to Northern Palm Beach County. Through the continued effort of the State of Florida's Conservation and Recreational Land (CARL) (now called the Florida Forever) acquisition program, approximately 90% of the privately held properties within this area have been acquired for perpetual public preservation. Lying between the western edges of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge and the barrier island is the Indian River Lagoon. This saltwater estuary is part of a larger ecosystem which extends 156 miles from Volusia County to Northern Palm Beach County. More detailed discussions on the function and vitality of the Indian River Lagoon system can be found in the Conservation and Coastal Management Elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Section 258.39(8), (9) and (12), Florida Statutes, provides for the official designation of the Indian River Lagoon and portions of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River as Aquatic Preserves. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection, charged with administration and supervision of these preserves, has adopted specific management plans for both areas, conducting both research and enforcement actions within them. In addition to its inland estuary and isolated wetland network, St. Lucie County has 21 miles of Atlantic Ocean shoreline, much of which is currently undeveloped. Through the efforts of the residents of St. Lucie County and the State of Florida, approximately seven miles of this unincorporated oceanfront are under public ownership. Another two miles of oceanfront property are owned by the Florida Power & Light Company, and are to be maintained in their present natural state in conjunction with the operation of the St. Lucie Power Plant facilities. The balance of the remaining oceanfront properties is held in private ownership and available for development activities, which have historically been residential in character. Existing Land Uses Most of unincorporated St. Lucie County remains agricultural in use. Therefore, future planning and development of these western areas remains a significant issue for the County. Single Family residential, public service facilities, and conservation/recreation areas are equally proportioned in this area. c a a Cn a) L 0 Cn w N 0 4 r O N w St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-2 Future La Packet Pg. 212 7.R.2.a Table 1-1 Existing Land Uses (Unincorporated St. Lucie County) Existing Land Use Acreage % of Total Land Area Conservation/Recreation 9,081.77 3.20% Agriculture 206,539.91 72.75% Residential Single Family 15,478.14 5.45% Residential Mobile Homes 834.74 0.29% Residential Multifamily 1,480.82 0.52% Mixed Use 164.29 0.06% Commercial 2,485.92 0.88% Public Services 18,961.99 6.68% Transportation 819.22 0.29% Light Industrial 0.73 0.00% Industrial 3,853.63 1.36% Residential Vacant 5,516.17 1.94% Commercial Vacant 1,072.25 0.38% Public Services Vacant 402.01 0.14% Right of Way 5,813.46 2.05% Water 745.38 0.26% ROW/Water Non- arcelized areas 10,663.65 3.76% Total 283,914.07 100.00% Source: St. Lucie Planning and Development Services 2009 Please note that there are a number of acres that are not parcelized in Table 1-1 and Table 1-2, but fall within unincorporated St. Lucie County. The acreage difference is due to the methods with which each of the data layers was created. A parcel layer is created at a closer scale therefore there can be more detail provided. The County boundary on the other hand was created at a regional or state level, which leads to a more general area represented. These layers were created by separate agencies which inherently lead to discrepancies between each of the datasets. Future Land Uses More than half of unincorporated St. Lucie County has the Agriculture-5 land use designation. The Towns, Villages and Countryside and Residential Urban designations make up 5% of the total land each. Conservation -Public is approximately 4% of the total land area. Lands with Commercial or Industrial land use designations each make up less than 1 % of the total land area.

Development west of the Urban Service Boundary is limited to densities which range from 1 dwelling unit per acre to .20 dwelling units per acre (1 dwelling unit per five acres). Development in excess of these densities requires an amendment to the Future Land Use Map of this plan. Any approval of such an amendment must include findings that the developer will provide the necessary services at no cost to local government and the conversion of agricultural land maintains the viability of agricultural uses on adjacent lands. Urban Service Area This area lies to the east of the previously discussed Urban Service Boundary and represents the preferred regions for development at urban intensities. The area indicated is the most likely to have centralized water and wastewater services provided by either a municipal utility or a privately operated regional enterprise. The intent of the urban service area designation is to restrict the negative impacts of a sprawling low density development pattern and the fiscal burden that pattern of development has on the ability of the community to meet its service needs. The Urban Service Area is not designed to be a permanent or static limitation on growth. Rather it is intended to indicate the areas of the County that can reasonably be expected to be provided with necessary community services during the fiscal planning periods of this plan. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-4 Future La Packet Pg. 214 7.R.2.a Future Land Use Element policies speak to the definition of the boundary of the Urban Service line. The policies provides for some flexibility in the exact location of this line by as much as 1,500 feet, without the need to amend to the Comprehensive Plan. This flexibility is based upon the recognition that as properties develop they may in fact have boundaries that lie in part beyond the defined Urban Service boundary as depicted. It is not the intention of this plan to penalize these properties for being partially outside of this area. M For example, it is conceivable that a property could be divided by the Urban Service boundary, but through particular topographic conditions it may be possible for that entire site to receive the full range of community a utility services. The Urban Service designation is not intended to be a line of absolute demarcation for the Cn provision of these services. r M Land Use/Zoning L The following table provides a land use district/zoning district compatibility chart that is intended to provide assistance in the application of compatible zoning districts, as currently found in St. Lucie County's Land Development Code. w N O 4 r O N U) W St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-5 Future La Packet Pg. 215 7.R.2.a Table 1-3 Land Use Designation/Zoning Compatibility Matrix Zoning LAND USE DISTRICTS AG-5 AG-2.5 RE IRS RU RM RH R/C Cpub COM IND P/F MXD SD H TU TVC AG-5 X X X X X X X AG-2.5 X X X X X AG-1 X X X X X X R/C X X X X X X X AR-1 X X X X X RE-1 X X X X X RE-2 X X X X X RS-2 X X X X X RS-3 X X X X RS-4 X X X X RM-5 X X X X RMH-5 X X X X RM-7 X X X RM-9 X X X RM-11 X X RM-15 X X CN X X X X X X X X X CO X X X X X X X X X CG X X X IL X X X IH X X X IX X X C C C C C C X X X X U X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X I X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X RF X X X X X X X X X X X X PCs X PUD X X X X X X X X X X X X X PNRD X X X X X X X X X X X X X X PMUD X X X X X X X X X X X X X X PRW X PTV X HIRD X X X X X X X X X X RVP X X CPUB X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X X- indicates compatible land use/zoning combination C - indicates requirement for Conditional Use to insure compatibility Population As noted in the below table the overall County population grew by 41 % between 2000 and 2009.

PUBLIC FACILITY NEEDS Transportation St. Lucie County maintains approximately 517 centerline miles of roadway throughout the County. Of these roads, approximately 374 miles are paved and 143 miles unpaved. The City of Port St. Lucie maintains approximately 877 centerline miles of roadway. The City of Fort Pierce maintains approximately 136 centerline miles of roadway, while the St. Lucie Village maintains approximately 4 centerline miles of roadway. Transportation is coordinated through the St. Lucie County Transportation Plan, a comprehensive, long-range outline of all major needed or desired transportation projects through the planning year 2030. This plan is a segment of the St. Lucie and Martin County Regional Long Range Transportation Plan (RLRTP). Designated Strategic Intermodal System facilities in St. Lucie County include 1-95, the Turnpike, the Florida East Coast Railroad, and the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. Emerging SIS facilities include SR 70/Okeechobee Road, and the South Central Florida Express Railroad. c a a Cn as r L 0 rn W N 0 v r 0 N U) W St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-8 Future La Packet Pg. 218 7.R.2.a Due to increasing traffic and economic development, the County is coordinating with the St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization and FDOT on the widening of Kings Highway, SR70/Okeechobee Boulevard, and Midway Road. Additional coordination will be needed to ensure the flow of traffic throughout the North County in conjunction with development of the TVC. Significant transportation facilities include the St. Lucie Airport, a general aviation facility and the Port of Ft. Pierce is the region's only deep water port, maintaining a channel depth of 28 feet. Transit is provided by the St. Lucie Council on Aging (fixed route and demand response) and the Treasure Coast Connector. St. Lucie County and Martin County completed the Regional Transit Development Plan for the Port St. Lucie Urbanized Area for planning new transit routes in the area. The County intends to support passenger rail services when available and encourage transit -oriented guidelines. The Board of County Commissioners adopted the St. Lucie County Bicycle, Pedestrian, Greenways & Trails Master Plan completed by the St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization (TPO) in 2008. The St. Lucie County Bicycle, Pedestrian, Greenways & Trails Master Plan inventoried all the existing sidewalks, bike paths, missing sidewalks, and provided suggestions to improve the system. The Transportation Element provides information of existing and projected level of services standards, transportation improvement strategies, and long term transportation planning programs. Potable Water St. Lucie County adopted the 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan and the Water and Wastewater Master Plan in 2008 which will serve as the overall planning documents for potable water facilities. The two (2) major urban areas of the County, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie, have regionalized potable water treatment and distribution systems. Unincorporated areas are serviced by St. Lucie Utilities, Fort Pierce Utility Authority (FPUA) and private suppliers. There is sufficient capacity to serve unincorporated St. Lucie County residents in the short term and long term planning timeframes. Wastewater The unincorporated County presently has wastewater service provided by St. Lucie Utilities, Fort Pierce Utility Authority, several medium sized utilities (St. Lucie West and private utilities), small package plants, and septic tanks. The wastewater utility providers have sufficient capacity to serve unincorporated St. Lucie County residents in the short term and long term planning timeframes. Drainage Major surface drainage modifications to St. Lucie County commenced with the formation of the North St. Lucie River Water Control District (1917) and the Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District (1919). These Districts were created for the purpose of agricultural drainage and irrigation, with a secondary purpose being flood control activities. During the 1940s, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) channelized portions of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River in an effort to improve its water -carrying capacity and to accelerate its speed or discharge into the Atlantic Ocean. During the 1960s, the COE constructed Canals C-23, C-24, and C-25, along with their control structures. With the construction of this Primary Canal system for the South Florida Water Management District, the County was then divided into a series of Sub -Basins. c a 21 a Cn as r L 0 w N O 4 r O N v� w St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-9 Future La Packet Pg. 219 7.R.2.a The Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP)/Indian River Lagoon (IRL)-South Plan projects will provide benefits to the primary drainage system and water quality. The County's Capital Improvements projects will provide benefits to the secondary and local drainage systems. Solid Waste St. Lucie County has been operating its present landfill since 1978. Currently, solid wastes received by the County are disposed of at the St. Lucie County Baling and Recycling Facility, which is the only solid waste a disposal facility currently permitted in the County. 21 Q. a There is sufficient capacity to serve unincorporated St. Lucie County residents in the short term and long termCn planning timeframes. r Parks L The County is required to provide a minimum level of service of 5 acres of Community Parks for the o unincorporated population, 2.5 acres of Regional Park land area for every 1,000 residents countywide, and 21.2 acres of Resource -based Parks per 1,000 residents countywide. Currently, the County has a deficit of w Community Parks and Regional Parks. N School Capacity 4 The St. Lucie School District provides public school facilities within the County. The County adopted the Public N School Facilities Element as required by Florida Statutes and updates the Capital Improvement Element d) according to the School District's five year work plan. The Five Year District Facilities Work Plan 2010-2011 provides for the following new schools to accommodate seven developments of regional impact (DRIs) within the County: a L High School BBB- Port St. Lucie o K-8 BB -SW Port St. Lucie K-8 CC- SW Port St. Lucie ., CONSERVATION ISSUES Natural Resources The following Future Land Use Element Data Inventory and Analysis requirements are provided in other Comprehensive Plan Elements as follows: • Infrastructure Wellfield Protection Conservation Wetlands Topgography Soils Water Resources Flood Zones Commercially Valuable Minerals Greenhouse Gas Reduction Strategies • Coastal Management Dredge Spoil Sites Hazard Mitigation St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-10 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 220 7.R.2.a Smart Growth and Greenhouse Reduction Strategies St. Lucie County wishes to implement smart growth strategies that support the reduction of greenhouse gases. It is anticipated that many existing developed areas in eastern sections of the County will be annexed by the City of Fort Pierce and the City of Port St. Lucie. Therefore, the County has focussed on smart growth planning on undeveloped edge areas such as the North County, the Jenkins Road Area Plan Special District, the Green Jobs and Innovation Corridor, the Green District, and and Western Lands to ensure future development does c not contribute to future sprawl and further climate change. Additionally, the Smart Growth Committee provided recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners in January 2009 that support achieving an urban 21 - form of compact, mixed use based upon the American Planning Association's A Recommendea 2 Comprehensive Smart Growth Audit Checklist. 2 L 2 r Towns, Villages, and Countryside Element (TVC Element) M L The TVC Element and related overlay regulations in the land development code applies to the agricultural area o of North St. Lucie County. Using the principles of Traditional Neighborhood Design (TND), the strategy for new settlement in the undeveloped areas requires a sustainable growth pattern characterized by a mix of uses, w building types and income levels as well as a pedestrian -friendly block and street network. The TVC preserves W a significant amount of public open space, promotes strategies for viable future agriculture, and helps mitigate CN the environmental impact of new development in the area. 4 r A 2004 public process - the North St. Lucie County Charrette - resulted in a Special Area Plan and subsequent N TVC implementation documents include the TVC Comprehensive Plan Element. The Treasure Coast Regional w Planning Council (TCRPC) led the two-year process through the adoption of the TVC Comprehensive Plan w Element and Land Development Regulations in May 2006. r_ Jenkins Road Area Plan Special District a The County adopted land development regulations regarding the Jenkins Road Area. The intent of these regulations is to create a viable road system and supporting multi -modal facilities, and to create an innovative, walkable, mixed use neighborhood built within the constraints of existing development, with adequate open space and recreational resources, and to protect natural resources. Further, land development regulations promote sound urban design for the dense development that has been proposed in the area; to provide for the creation of a multi -modal transportation system suitable for motorized vehicles, mass transit, bicycles, and pedestrians; to provide adequate open space, park and recreational facilities for the significant neighborhoods proposed in the area; to provide and maintain functional road system in an area where key intersections and a major road are already failing; to create development that is compatible with existing land uses in the area; to provide a mix of land uses that increases the internal capture of trips and to include walkable scale and bicycle facilities that increase the variety of modes of transportation used to make internal trips; to provide protection for listed species, wetlands, and other significant environmental resources on the site; and to provide for innovative forms of land development. The regulations adopted affect all land development in the unincorporated area of St. Lucie County which is proposed in the area lying south and west of Angle Road, North of Orange Avenue, and east of King's Highway, near the western boundary of the City of Ft. Pierce, Florida. Project Energy The County is involved in numerous activities to increase economic development based upon alternate energy. These activties include development of the Green Jobs Corridor and relationships with national and local organizations to generate a "green economy." Green Jobs and Innovation Corridor Charrette Planning. The Treasure Coast Education and Research Park is located between the Turnpike and Kings Highway north of Okeechobee Road. Currently anchored by the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-11 Future Land Use Element Packet Pg. 221 7.R.2.a United States Department of Agriculture's 170,000-square-foot Horticultural Research Laboratory and the 90,000-square-foot University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences' Research and Education Center, the Treasure Coast Education Research and Development Authority (TCERDA) Research Park is home to multi -disciplinary scientists, researchers and educators. From 2009, the County has been planning a green jobs corridor surrounding the Research Park. Additional economic development and job creation in the county will reduce long commutes to employment centers in West Palm Beach and Vero Beach and increase jobs/housing balance ratios. The Green Jobs and Innovation Corridor Charrette planning will include an emphasis on land uses supportive of the Research Park, water management, green energy, energy conservation, building standards, landscaping and public meeting places so that the Park encompasses the most current green technology available. Green District. St. Lucie County has collaborated with the U.S. Department of Energy Oak Ridge National Laboratory, General Electric, the City of Fort Pierce, and other local organizations to create a model sustainable community. St. Lucie County is real -world test bed for new products sanctioned by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee. This is aided by St. Lucie County's US Department of Energy grant for the Solar Energy and Loan Fund for residences and businesses that further the County's desire to go green. Specific partnerships/programs include: • Energy Efficiency Program - work with St. Lucie County's $23 million Solar and Energy Loan Fund to help residents and business install energy efficiency upgrades • Smart Grid Implementation - partner with the Fort Pierce Utility Authority and others to utilize energy - efficient home applications and solar and smart meters in the County's Green District • Workforce Training Initiative - collaborate with Indian River State College (IRSC), the Green Collar Training Center, and local trade unions to prepare the workforce for the emerging green economy. • Local Business Development - a GE pilot initiative that leverages GE's knowledge base, global network and existing business connections to assist the growth of St. Lucie County -based small businesses. Geoplasma Project. St. Lucie County's Solid Waste Department is developing a Geoplasma project at the County Landfill. The project would use plasma arc technology, which heats trash and turns the garbage into gas and a slag by-product, essentially eliminating waste that ends up in the landfill. Western Lands St. Lucie County is undertaking a Western Lands Study expected to be completed in 2011. The purpose of this study is to acquire significant public input addressing fundamental issues regarding the future land uses of approximately 200,000 acres of agricultural land. The study will result in a sustainable plan for the County's western lands that will preserve and conserve a functioning network of agriculture, open space, and natural areas while providing economically viable options for agricultural landowners, now and in the future. The study will include an analysis of patterns of land uses that respect private property rights and provide opportunities for rural lifestyles and agricultural operations that are sustainable in terms of equity treatment for landowners, economic viability, infrastructure provision, water demand and usage, and environmental conservation. Mobility Fees The County plans to replace traditional road impact fees with mobility fees based upon vehicle miles travelled. These fees would support not just road construction projects, but all types of multi -modal improvements to reduce dependency on automobiles. A study and public workshops on the fees were started in 2010. The County expects to complete the study and consider adption by December 2011. Historic Resources In December 2006, the St. Lucie County Historic Preservation Ordinance was passed by the Board of County c a a Cn L as 0 vn w N 0 4 r O N w St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-12 Future Land Use Element Packet Pg. 222 7.R.2.a Commissioners. The Ordinance is consistent with the general purpose goals, objectives, and policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The Ordinance includes definitions, and provisions for a Historic Preservation Trust Fund, Historic Preservation Officer, Historic Preservation Committee, and historic designation process and procedures. The Comprehensive Plan provides for a Historic future land use designation. The Bureau of Archaeological Research within the Florida Office of Cultural and Historic Preservation maintains the Florida Master Site File (MSF), a database that contains information on archaeological and historic resources in Florida. The Florida Department of Historic Resources has jurisdiction over historic and archaeological sites if there are human remains or if a state or federal permit is requested. If a private property owner develops or redevelops their property and their property is listed on the MSF, the state historic preservation officer should be contacted for guidance. Appendices 1A and 1B provide lists of sites located within unincorporated St. Lucie County on the Florida Master Site File. Sites on the National Register of Historic Places located within St. Lucie County include the following: • Arcade Building • Casa Caprona • Cresthaven • Old Fort Pierce City Hall • Fort Pierce Old Post Office • Jules Frere House • Captain Hammond House • Zora Neale Hurston House • Immokolee • Moore's Creek Bridge • St. Anastasia High School • St. Lucie High School • St. Lucie Historic District • Sunrise Theater (Source: National Park Service, National Register of Historic Places, 2009) Casa Caprona and the Captain Hammond House lie within unincorporated St. Lucie County. Another significant historic resource not on the Florida Master Site File or National Register of Historic Places is the Zora Neale Hurston Dust Tracks Heritage Trail. REDEVELOPMENT The County has not officially designated any areas as having conditions of slum and blight, but is continuing to monitor aging areas and implement needed programs and improvements. Economic Development This Comprehensive Plan includes an optional Economic Development Element as part of the County's overall vision for sustainability. In order to achieve its economic development goals, St. Lucie County has embraced two popular economic development tools, namely branding and cluster development. Along with Indian River and Martin County, St. Lucie County now promotes itself as part of Florida's Research Coast. This branding highlights the region's desire to shift its image from an agricultural and tourist based c M a Q. a Cn L 2 r M 0 Cn w N 0 0 N v� w St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-13 Future Land Use Element Packet Pg. 223 7.R.2.a economy to an area that is invested in recruiting businesses that offer high -skilled, high -paying, long-term employment opportunities. Further St. Lucie County has created a Targeted Industry List which pinpoints the specific sectors it would like to see relocate to the area. This list is composed of manufacturing, research, and distribution sectors that complement each other and would encourage the creation of industry clusters. Cluster theory is based on the concept that businesses and research centers want to be located in close proximity to similar institutions so 2 that they may take advantage of a skilled workforce, access to specialized higher learning institutions, and a., adjacency to specialized customers and suppliers. The County has demonstrated the cluster concept with the a recruitment of three major life sciences institutes- Torrey Pines Institute, Mann Research Center and the in Vaccine and Gene Therapy Institute. r Treasure Coast Education, Research and Development Authority (TCERDA) L In 2005, the St. Lucie Board of County Commissioners and the University of Florida collectively created this agriculturally-and-biotechnologically-focused Research Park in unincorporated St. Lucie County including renewable energy and alternative fuel companies. This Research Park is governed by the Treasure Coast Lu Education, Research and Development Authority (TCERDA), pursuant to Florida Statute Section 159, Part V, N and the enabling Resolution and Ordinance of the Board of County Commissioners of St. Lucie County, o Florida. It is envisioned as a home to multi -disciplinary scientists, researchers and educators. 4 r O N The initial master plan calls for over 350 developed acres of buildings and wet labs to house research, cis development and educational institutions, businesses and incubators, with an additional 700 acres for uJ agricultural fields and for future Research Park expansion. USDA's 170,000 square foot Horticultural Research r_ Laboratory and the 90,000 square foot University of Florida's Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences' I Research and Education Center will anchor the TCERDA's Research Park. a GROWTH MANAGEMENT HISTORY The County's prior master plan, the Growth Management Policy Plan (GMPP), was adopted in 1981 in accordance with the Local Government Comprehensive Planning Act of 1975. That Plan provided a general guide for land use decisions in the unincorporated regions of the County. It recognized the importance of a mix of land uses and gave the County leverage, through its implementation, in determining the appropriateness of proposed land use activities on a case -by -case basis. The GMPP also set forth policies for a wide spectrum of environmental issues. Population growth in St. Lucie County was explosive in the early and mid-1980's. A fault of the Growth Management Policy Plan was that it failed to provide the flexibility that was necessary to meet the demands of a rapidly growing community. This shortcoming resulted in the necessity to constantly consider major amendments that cumulatively served to denigrate the effectiveness of the entire plan. The St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan was first adopted in 1990, and it took the foundation laid by the County's original master plan (GMPP), and built upon it to meet the revised intent of Chapter 163.08, Florida Statutes. In doing so, the following issues and concerns were acknowledged and addressed: ■ Preservation, maintenance, and enhancement of the County's natural resources, including o the Indian River Lagoon, o the North Fork of the St. Lucie River, o the Savannas, o the coastal barrier islands system, St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 1-14 Future Land Use Element Packet Pg. 224 7.R.2.a o isolated inland wetland systems, o aquifer recharge areas, o native upland habitat; ■ Increased pressure of western development migration; ■ Emergence of the 1-95/Florida Turnpike corridor as a major force in future development consideration; S ■ Desire of the community to attract high -quality employers; and, a 21 ■ Efficiency in traffic circulation associated with providing residential areas near employment hubs. a Evaluation and Appraisal Reports r Pursuant to Section 163.3191, Florida Statutes, "each local government shall adopt an evaluation and appraisal report (EAR) once every seven years assessing the progress in implementing the local government's comprehensive plan." The report evaluates how successful a community has been in addressing major community land use planning issues through implementation of its comprehensive plan. Based on this Cn evaluation, the report suggests how the plan should be revised to better address community objectives, LU changing conditions and trends affecting the community, and changes in state requirements. N O The County completed Evaluation and Appraisal Reports in 1998 and 2008. EAR -based Amendments were adopted in 2002 (finalized through a stipulated settlement agreement with DCA in 2004) and 2010. c N U) W St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-15 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 225 7.R.2.a FUTURE LAND USE ELEMENT GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES Goal 1.1: Ensure the highest quality living environment possible, through a mixture of land uses reflecting the needs and desires of the local residents and how they want their community to develop. The goal shall be implemented by strictly enforced building, zoning and development codes based on objectives and policies that will enhance St. Lucie County's natural and man-made resources while minimizing any damage or threat of degradation to the health, safety and welfare of the county's citizens, native wildlife and environment, through incompatible land uses. Objective 1.1.1: Maintain the Future Land Use Map land with the following use designations to portray the future development patterns of St. Lucie County. Policy 1.1.1.1 - The following land use designations/intensities, as indicated on the Future Land Use Maps are provided as the pattern for the future development of the area within unincorporated St. Lucie County. Land Use Category Residential Density Intensity (Max Height/ Max Lot Coverage by Structure) AG-5 Agriculture-5 1 du/5 acres (.2 du/1 acre) _ AG-2.5 Agriculture-2.5 1 du/2.5 acres 4 du/1 acre - RE Residential Estate 1 du/1 acre _ IRS Residential Suburban 2 du/1 acre _ RU Residential Urban 5 du/1 acre _ RM Residential Medium 9 du/1 acre _ RH Residential High 15 du/1 acre _ R/C Residential/Conservation 1 du/5 acres 2 du/1 acre - Cpub Conservation -Public 0 du' 20 ft/5 -10% COM Commercial 0 du' 60 ft/40-50% IND Industrial 0 du' 80 ft/40-50% P/F Public Facilities 0 du' 80 ft/40-50% T/U Transportation/Utilities 0 du 40 ft/40-50% MXD Mixed Use Development .2-15 du/acre 2 80 ft/40% - 50% H Historic 0 du 1 40 ft/40-50% SD Special District .2-15 du/acre 80 ft/40% - 50% TVC Towns, Villages, & Countryside Variable pursuant to special ares plan. See TVC Element Goals, Objectives, and Policies. 1-9 du/acre Notes: 1) Residential uses permitted only as accessory to primary permitted use. Refer to Zoning/Land De�lopment Code for special restrictions. 2) Maximum Densities subject to compliance with intensity plans for each mixed use area, as set forth in Policy 1.1.7.4 Policy 1.1.1.2 - The County's land use categories shall be described as follows: A. Agricultural-5 (AG-5) The AG-5 land use designation is intended for those areas of the County outside of the planned urban service area which are associated with agricultural and agricultural -related activities. These areas are recognized for first being appropriate for the production of citrus, cash crops, or ranching activities. These areas are acknowledged as potentially suitable for limited residential development under the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-16 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 226 7.R.2.a following criteria: • All residential development must be in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code; • All residential development proposals in excess of eight units must be approved through the Planned Development (PD) process as provided for in the Land Development Code; • Any activity other than crop or food product related production, including combinations of properties/uses, in excess of 200 acres should identify appropriate mechanisms for funding the operation and maintenance of necessary infrastructure. Any utility infrastructure shall be consistent with the Infrastructure Element. • Residential densities are set at a maximum of .20 units per gross acre (one unit per 5 gross acres). B. Agricultural-2.5 (AG-2.5) The AG-2.5 land use designation is intended for those areas of the County outside of the planned urban service area which are associated with agricultural and agricultural -related activities. These areas are recognized for first being appropriate for the production of citrus, cash crops, or ranching activities. These areas are acknowledged as potentially suitable for limited residential development under the following criteria: • All residential development must be in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code; • All residential development proposals in excess of eight units must be approved through the Planned Development (PD) process as provided for in the Land Development Code; • Any activity other than crop or food product related production, including combinations of properties/uses, in excess of 200 acres should identify appropriate mechanisms for funding the operation and maintenance of necessary infrastructure. Any utility infrastructure shall be consistent with the Infrastructure Element. • Residential densities are set at a maximum of .40 units per gross acre (one unit per 2.5 gross acres). C. Residential Estate (RE) The Residential Estate (RE) land use category is intended to act as a transitional area between the agricultural areas and the more intense residential areas in the eastern portion of the County. This category is found predominantly along the western edge of the urban form, but is also appropriate for areas of special environmental concern such as along the North Fork of the St. Lucie River and the Indian River Lagoon. The RE designation is intended for large lot, single-family detached residential dwellings, at a density of one unit per gross acre. These areas are not required to be served with central utilities, however when at all practical, service connections should be provided. The RE designation is acknowledged as potentially suitable for limited residential development under the following criteria: All residential development must be in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code; All residential development proposals in excess of eight units must be approved through the Planned Development (PD) process as provided for in the Land Development Code; Residential densities are set at a maximum of one unit per one gross acre. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-17 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 227 7.R.2.a D. Residential Suburban (RS) The Residential Suburban (RS) land use category is intended to act as a transitional area between the agricultural areas and the more intense residential areas in the eastern portion of the County. This category is found predominantly along the western edge of the urban form, but is also appropriate for areas of special environmental concern such as along the North Fork of the St. Lucie River and the Indian River Lagoon. The RS designation is intended for large lot, single-family detached residential dwellings, at a density of one to two units per gross acre. These areas are not required to be served with central utilities; however when at all practical, service connections should be required. E. Residential Urban (RU) The Residential Urban (RU) classification is the predominant residential land use category in the County. This residential land use category provides for a maximum density of five dwelling units per gross acre. The RU designation is generally found between the identified urban service areas and the transitional RS areas. These properties need to be serviced with central water and wastewater services. These services may be provided by either a public utility or through private on -site facilities, as would be permitted in accordance with all applicable regulations. New development in the RU areas can occur using traditional single-family or multifamily zoning designations or through the planned unil development process. F. Residential Medium (RM) The Residential Medium (RM) land use category is to be applied to those areas that are within, or planned to be within, areas of central community services. A maximum residential density of nine dwelling units per gross acre is permitted under this land use designation. If required, the actual density is subject to the satisfactory completion of the rezoning process, which would include complete review of the physical suitability of the property for development at the proposed intensity. Medium density residential land uses can act as a transition between the lower intensity RU areas and the more intense land use designations. Zoning applications within the RM land use area include single-family, multifamily, or PD zoning. G. Residential High (RH) Areas designated Residential High (RH) are intended to accommodate high density development, not to exceed 15 dwelling units per gross acre. In order to develop at this intensity, it must be possible to connect into a central water and wastewater service facility, and the subject property must be located in an area of the County which has available all urban services and facilities including fire protection, police, recreation, roadways, and schools. H. Mixed Use Development (MXD) The intent of the Mixed Use Development (MXD) designation is to identify those areas where innovative land use concepts are encouraged. Application of this district should be with prudence, and should be only to those areas where traditional land use classifications do not afford the desired flexibility and community input in land use planning necessary to address local concerns. Candidates for this district include all 1-95 interchange areas, the St. Lucie County International Airport, Community Development Districts created pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes and areas of special or unique environmental consideration that may not be appropriate for traditional land use designations. Uses within the areas classified as Mixed Use should be segregated as to intensity and indicated in the form of a concept master plan which is to be included as a part of the land use designation process. The following criteria, in addition to those as cited in Objective 1.1.7, are to be used in the development of Mixed Use areas: c M a 21 Q. a U) L 2 r M L 0 U) w N O 4 r O N v) w St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-18 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 228 7.R.2.a Unless otherwise compliant with the identified intensity classification, any change in zoning shall be to the Planned Unit Development (PUD), Planned Non -Residential Development (PNRD) or Planned Mixed Use Development (PMUD), as described in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Those properties with compatible existing zoning designations are encouraged to develop under the PUD, PNRD or PMUD regulations. Residential development shall be regulated by the intensity district in which it is to take place. In no case should gross residential density exceed 15 du/ac. All uses shall be compatible with internal and external adjacent land uses. I. Special District (SD) The intent of the Special District (SD) designation is to identify those areas where specific uses or combinations of uses are anticipated. These include previously approved Community Development Districts, areas for which a site specific development plan or concept has been granted, or areas which by their location have specific issues and concerns for their development. Residential densities within an area designated as a Special District are limited to what the current land use designation authorizes. Any increase over the present designation may be considered only through the Plan Amendment process. J. Commercial (COM) The Commercial (COM) land use designation is applicable to areas of future commercial development, in addition to those existing developed commercial areas. Future commercial areas should be located at points of high transportation access, with specific action taken to prevent the development of new linear commercial strips. Although this plan supports the location of higher intensity commercial uses at the intersection o1 arterial roadways, it should not be interpreted to mean that every intersection should be designated for commercial activities. Unless otherwise designated on the future land use maps, applications for commercial use should be done in conjunction with a detailed review of the impacts of such development on adjacent property, specifically noting what, if any, negative neighborhood impacts could result. The Commercial (COM) designation is intended to accommodate all commercial zoning districts as identified under St. Lucie County's Land Development Code. Office and general retail uses are considered the principal uses within the COM designated areas. K. Industrial (IND) This land use designation is applied to specific areas of the County identified as suitable for industrial use. This land use designation is intended to be implemented through both the heavy and light industrial zoning districts, with the specific criteria for zoning application as provided for under the policies of the Future Land Use Element. Areas designated for Industrial activities must have available all necessary services and facilities prior to development, supplied by either public or private sources as permitted. In addition, developments proposing to incorporate heavy industrial uses will be required to be adequately buffered from any adjacent use that would be incompatible. L. Public Facilities (P/F) The Public Facilities (P/F) land use designation is applied to properties used for such activities as education and places of worship. This designation may also be applied to other public uses such as jails and administrative buildings. c M a 21 a L as M 0 cn w rr N 0 4 r 0 N w rr St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-19 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 229 7.R.2.a M. Transportation/Utilities (T/U) The purpose of this district is to recognize the Transportation or Utility use of property. This designation may be applied as appropriate subject to review of the specific application and intended use of the property. The Transportation/Utilities (T/U) land use designation has been applied principally to four areas: 1) St. Lucie County International Airport; 2) The St. Lucie County Landfill; 3) The St. Lucie Power Plant site located on South Hutchinson Island; and, 4) The Florida Power and Light -Midway switching station along West Midway Road. N. Historic (H) The Historic (H) land use designation is applied to properties of historic significance as identified by the national historic register, or State of Florida. O. Conservation The Conservation land use designation has been divided into two categories: Residential/Conservation (R/C) and Conservation -Public (Cpub). These designations are intended to identify areas of the County which exhibit unique or special environmental characteristics, and may be either publicly or privately held. The designations are described in more detail below. Residential/Conservation (R/C): The Residential/Conservation category is intended to identify those privately controlled lands that contain unique vegetation or have characteristics which warrant special attention prior to their being developed. The Residential/Conservation designation is not intended to prevent development activities. Instead, its purpose is to identify those areas that, due to special environmental or other unique constraints, location, property configuration, or topography should be more closely examined before final development approvals are authorized. Areas designated Residential/Conservation carry a development potential of .20 dwelling units per gross acre (one dwelling unit per five gross acres). Areas within the R/C designation should be developed using the following criteria: The development is supplied with central water and sewer service; unless otherwise permitted by the appropriate authority. Any development within an area designated R/C should, as a requirement for building permit approval, demonstrate compliance with all applicable environmental protection regulations as set forth in the Land Development Code for St. Lucie County. Any residential development proposal in excess of ten acres, or involving more than eight units, should be reviewed under the Planned Development regulations as set forth in the Land Development Code for St. Lucie County. 2. Conservation -Public (Cpub): Areas designated Conservation -Public are those lands which exhibit unique environmental characteristics and are owned by federal, state, regional, or local public agencies. They are intended solely for preservation and/or recreational use. No residential or commercial development may occur other than that typically related to park service and security functions. P. Towns Villages and Countryside (TVC). Areas designated TVC must follow the policies of the TVC Element in this Comprehensive Plan and the TVC Overlay Zone requirements in the Land St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-20 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 230 7.R.2.a Development Code. The purpose of the TVC land use designation is to accommodate future growth within the Special Area Plan for North St. Lucie County in the existing, undeveloped rural areas with a planning strategy that will ensure a settlement pattern that is sustainable, predictable, protects and enhances the rural environment and improves the citizens' quality of life. The TVC requires a sustainable settlement pattern characterized by a mix of uses, building types and income levels within a compact pedestrian friendly environment that accommodates multiple modes of transportation and preserves open space. This land use category is appropriate for areas that have been analyzed in a a Special Area Plan, created with a high degree of citizen participation. Objective 1.1.2 - Provide in the Land Development Code provisions for a compatible and coordinated land use pattern which establishes agriculture as the primary use outside of the urban service boundary and promotes c2 retention of agricultural activities, preserves natural resources and maintains native vegetative habitats and 2 allows new development in accordance with the Towns, Villages and Countryside Goals, Objectives and 3: Policies for settlement outside of the urban service boundary within the Special Area Plan for North St. Lucie '5% County Policy 1.1.2.1 - Require that new developments within the AG-5 and AG-2.5 future land use categories w not exceed the gross densities provided in Policy 1.1.1.1. N Policy 1.1.2.2 - Any application or petition to divide a lot or parcel of record as of January 9, 1990, in the AG-2.5 or AG-5 future land use categories, into more than eight lots, parcels or tracts, shall be r approved only through the planned development process consistent with the other Goals, Objectives N and Polices of this Plan, except in those instances where the division of lot or parcel of record as of w January 9, 1990, would result in individual parcels or tracts of 20 acres or more in size and no streets W roads or other public or private infrastructure are required. r_ If two or more lots, parcels or tracts or combinations of lots parcels or tracts and portions of lots parcels or tracts which are contiguous to other lots parcels or tracts under single or common ownership interest and were of record on January 1, 1990, the lands involved shall be considered to be an undivided parcel for the purposes of this Policy, provided however, that lots, parcels or tracts separated by an ingress/egress, access or roadway easement that was of record on January 1, 1990, but specifically excluding any easement limited to utilities, drainage or other non -access purpose, shall not be considered an undivided parcel for the purpose of this Policy. Where any new street, road, or other public or private infrastructure is proposed within the PD it shall be designed in a manner that provides for the grouping or concentrating of all development areas and activities in order to minimize the cost of providing infrastructure and community services to these areas while maintaining a minimum of 80 percent Open Space (gross area). Policy 1.1.2.3 - All future non-agricultural development within the AG-5 and AG-2.5 future land use categories will be required to preserve open space, which is to be defined to include, but not be limited to, agricultural activities such as groves and range land as well as preservation of natural areas according to the following criteria: a. Developments in excess of eight units or greater than 160 acres in gross area, whichever is more restrictive must retain a minimum of 80 percent of the project site as open space. b. Developments of eight units or less, or involving 160 acres or less in gross area, whichever is more restrictive must retain a minimum of 50 percent of the project site as open space, provided that this paragraph shall not be applied to avoid the remainder of this policy through further subdivision of land parcels as existed as to record on January 9, 1990. For any planned development project developed within the AG-5 and AG-2.5 future land use St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Element 1-21 Future Land Use Packet Pg. 231 7.R.2.a categories, a minimum of 35 percent of the gross project area shall be held in common ownership or management control. Nothing in this Policy is intended to prevent these areas of required common open space from, at the discretion of and acceptance by the appropriate unit of local or state government, being conveyed into public ownership or trust. For any agricultural PD equal to or less than 160 acres in gross area or involving eight or less lots or parcels, whichever is more restrictive, the required common open space, may be held in either common or individual interest. Policy 1.1.2.4 - Provide the means to manage growth within the agricultural land use categories through the orderly delivery of services concurrent with the impacts of development. It is anticipated that over time portions of the agricultural land use categories will be converted to urban uses as services are provided.

This element addresses general utilities which are provided by or managed by the County. These include: • Potable Water • Solid Waste • Drainage and Natural Groundwater Recharge • Sanitary Sewer POTABLE WATER SUBELEMENT Introduction The Potable Water Sub element provides a summary of existing potable water supplies and treatment facilities in St. Lucie County. These facilities include municipal regional systems and area or development - specific systems, in addition to systems for individual residences. Only a small portion of the unincorporated county is currently serviced through County owned services (primarily the Holiday Pines development), and North Hutchinson Island. A bulk user agreement is in place with the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) to provide service in portions of the County's northern service area within the Urban Service Boundary. FPUA also serves customers within its retail service area. The Port St. Lucie Utility Systems Department provides service in the southeast portion of the County within their designated service area. The majority of the residential supply within the unincorporated county is provided by private wells, and treatment systems. The needs for the County's future are discussed, with goals, objectives and policies focusing on specific activities which will remedy those needs. Existing Planning Documents St. Lucie County completed the Water and Wastewater Master Plan in October of 2008 and the 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan in December of 2008 which will serve as the overall planning documents for potable water facilities. The more recently updated of the planning documents (Master Plan or Water Supply Facilities Work Plan) will be the prevailing planning document until such time as the other is updated; edits will be made to the comprehensive plan elements to incorporate the updates during the next regularly scheduled cycle. The two (2) major municipalities within the County, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie, have regionalized potable water treatment and distribution systems. St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) is currently developing a regional water treatment and distribution system to serve unincorporated areas of the County within the urban service St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-1 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 275 7.R.2.a boundary. The City of Fort Pierce completed a master plan update for water and wastewater in September 2006. The Fort Pierce Utility Authority completed its Water Supply Facility Work Plan in December 2007 and the City of Port St. Lucie completed theirs in November 2007. Geographic Service Area Figure 2-1 in the Water Supply Facilities Work Plan outlines general areas of potable water service for the major regional facilities now operating in the County. The major regional facilities supplying unincorporated St. Lucie County are: • St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) • Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) Regional Facilities St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District (formerly known as Holiday Pines Service Corporation): In July 1999, SLCU acquired the Holiday Pines Service Corporation. The service area for the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District includes the Holiday Pines subdivision and some commercial and residential areas fronting Kings Highway and Indrio Road, as well as North Hutchinson Island. In August 2005, the North Hutchinson Island Utility District, Airport Utility District, North County (Holiday Pines) Utility District, Mid County District, Indian River Estates Municipal Services Benefit Unit (MSBU) District and H.E.W. Utility District were consolidated into the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District. SLCU owns and operates a water treatment plant with a permitted capacity of 0.288 MGD (Holiday Pines WTP). Average daily flow at this facility in 2006 was 0.124 MGD. Plans are currently underway to increase the Holiday Pines WTP capacity to 0.5 MGD. North Hutchinson Island Utility District (now a part of the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District as noted above): In 1991, SLCU acquired the Bryn Mawr and North Hutchinson Island Water and Wastewater Utilities and expanded them to form a regional water and wastewater utility serving all of North Hutchinson Island. The North Hutchinson Utility District purchases potable water from FPUA and resells the water to its customers on North Hutchinson Island. North Hutchinson Utility District offers potable water to North Hutchinson Island from North A1A / Little Jim Bridge north to approximately 2.2 miles south of the County line. Construction is currently underway to extend this service north to the County line. South Hutchinson Island (SHI) District Wastewater Utility: The County owns and operates a 1.6 MGD water reclamation facility on SHI to serve the properties within the SHI MSBU. Potable water service for this area is provided by FPUA. Fort Pierce Utilities Authority: The Fort Pierce Utilities Authority, (FPUA) maintains a twenty (20) million gallon per day (MGD) potable water treatment plant referred to as the Henry A. Gahn Water Treatment Plant (WTP) located on 25th Street in Fort Pierce. This facility consists of two separate WTPs, one lime -softening and one reverse osmosis (RO), with a combined permitted capacity of 18.99 MGD. Raw water is obtained from several municipal wellfields consisting of both surficial aquifer and Floridan aquifer wells and is processed for potable water use at the WTP. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-2 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 276 7.R.2.a In 1999, the FPUA announced plans to complete a 4.0 MGD RO expansion to the existing facility, bringing the total plant capacity to 25.2 MGD. An additional 2.0 MGD filter system in the future will increase the permitted treatment capacity to 27.2 MGD. The production capacity of this facility is presently permitted 17.9 MGD by the South Florida Water Management District water use permit. The first phase of expansion occurred in late 2000, with future expansion plans being adopted. This facility currently provides water service to the City of Fort Pierce and adjacent unincorporated areas, including most of South Hutchinson Island to the Martin County line, and to areas north, west, and south of the City limits. The water service boundary is approximately bounded by Midway Road to the south (and, on South Hutchinson Island by the Martin County line); by the Turnpike to the west; by St. Lucie Boulevard to the north; and by the Atlantic Ocean to the east. FPUA has entered into a bulk agreement with the County to serve some of these adjoining properties. Properties located adjacent to and nearby Fort Pierce are responsible for locating and maintaining their own water supplies. These on -site water supplies normally obtain their water from shallow aquifer wells. Private Utilities with Capacities Greater than 0.1 MGD in Unincorporated St. Lucie County Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park: The Spanish Lakes Mobile Home Park is privately owned by the Wynne Building Corporation.. Potable water service is provided via an on -site R-9-WTP-.,A,s consisting of perm+ss. aeration and disinfection. Raw water is provided via four {4)-surficial aquifer wells. The permitted capacity of the WTP is 0.33 MG0480 mqd. The existing population within the mobile home park is two thousand, four hundred and se„en+„ r2,47-9)600 (1,300 lots)which is anticipated to increase to throe tho„sand forty (3 non\ in 204A ) Spanish Lakes Fairways: Spanish Lakes Fairways is a private adult community located in the northwest portion of the County's mainland St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District service area. The sixteen hundred (1,600) unit development reached a build -out population of thirty-two hundred (3,200) people in 2004 and has no plans for further expansion. The development owns and operates a water treatment plant that provides potable water service via an on -site RO WTP with a permitted capacity of 0.57-9930 MGD. Raw water is supplied to the water treatment plant by four (4), eight (8)-inch wells constructed into the surficial aquifer. The maximum daily demands are well within the plant's permitted capacity. Panther Woods. Panther Woods, for merh, Meadowood: Meadowood Golf and Country ClubTennis club, formerly Panther Woods, owns and operates a lime softening WTP that is permitted to produce up to 0.432 MGD gd of potable water. The historical peak day production is approximately 0.2 MGDmgd. The WTP, fed by fourthree 8-inch surficial aquifer wells, was recently refurbished and E;taFt up took place in January 2008. -The WTP currently serves approximately 930 residents, which is expected to increase to 1,053 residents at buildout. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-3 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 277 7.R.2.a Water Supply Wells There is an increasing trend in the County to shift from the use of shallow groundwater, or the surficial aquifer, to the deeper Floridan aquifer. The Floridan aquifer wells are generally located in the coastal areas. The majority of the water supply wells in St. Lucie County presently draw water from the surficial aquifer. The wells located in the surficial aquifer range in size from one -inch, for the low demand systems, such as a home or small business, to twenty-four (24) inches for the larger demand regional systems. Also in service in the County are deeper wells which are fed from the Floridan aquifer. The larger surficial wells are primarily used to supply water to package plants and regional facilities. A large number of the smaller surficial wells are concentrated in residential developments that are not served by any regional water or wastewater facility. Many of these wells exist on one quarter (1/4) - acre lots which generally also have on -site septic systems for their wastewater disposal. The Floridan aquifer wells are generally located in the coastal areas. On South Hutchinson Island, Ocean Towers and Miramar condominiums use Floridan aquifer wells for their private WTPs. FPUA has recently received a water use permit from the SFWMD to construct Floridan aquifer wells that will allow FPUA to blend treated water from the Floridan aquifer with water from the surficial aquifer. FPUA currently operates thirty-five (35) surficial aquifer wells and nine (9) Floridan aquifer wells, and is currently in the process of constructing two (2) additional Floridan aquifer wells. The City of Port St. Lucie has a combined system consisting of thirty-four (34) surficial aquifer wells, eleven (11) existing Floridan aquifer wells and six (6) proposed Floridan aquifer wells. St. Lucie County operates two (2) surficial aquifer wells that serve the Holiday Pines water treatment plant, and the water use permit from the SFWMD will allow for up to twenty- five (25) future Floridan aquifer wells to supply three (3) to four (4) regional water treatment plants at build out of the unincorporated area. The County has a Wellfield Protection Ordinance in place for the protection of public water supply wells. The ordinance provides for required setbacks from supply wells and regulates land uses to prevent contamination of the water supply. See Map FLU-12 for the Wellfield Protection Zones. Water Quality Water quality ranges from fair in the southeast mainland part of the County to brackish in the northwestern part of the County. The poorer water quality has been associated with the use of the brackish artesian Floridan aquifer for irrigation of citrus. Drilling records indicate that there is also an area of naturally existing saltwater extending from the vicinity of St. Lucie Village to the northern and eastern shores of Lake Okeechobee. The concentration of minerals in the connate water increases with depth to the base of the shallow aquifer and at that point it exceeds the mineral content of the artesian aquifer. The artesian aquifer system is part of an extensive carbonate rock aquifer system that underlies most of Florida. In St. Lucie County, the artesian Floridan aquifer has three distinct producing zones of different hydrologic properties and water quality separated by semi -permeable zones. The upper producing zone of Zone 1 has the best water quality, but it is too brackish for domestic or public water supply without proper treatment (i.e. RO membranes). The water from Zone 1 is suitable for stock watering and some crops, St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-4 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 278 7.R.2.a most notably citrus. Most of the artesian wells in the County are developed in Zone 1 of the Floridan aquifer. The water quality in the upper portion of this aquifer in St. Lucie County is fair to poor as potable water, without treatment via a membrane system (such as RO). With proper treatment, the Floridan aquifer water is ideal for potable use. The surficial aquifer is recharged through local area rainfall. In periods of prolonged drought, water supplies can become a concern. There is no natural groundwater recharge to the Floridan aquifer in St. Lucie County. The Floridan aquifer in St. Lucie County is believed to be recharged in the regions of West Central Florida (Polk, Lake and Orange Counties). The quality of water in the surficial aquifer is generally good. Needs Assessment The County presently has potable water service provided by three major utilities, several medium sized utilities, small package plants, and domestic wells. This section examines the needs of those areas in the County which are not included in a major or medium- sized utility service area and which have been determined to be potential high growth areas or areas with identified problems. The future land use plan for St. Lucie County identifies several higher density residential and commercial areas. Of the land uses identified, classifications which would be dense enough to require some form of regional or sub -regional public water supply are medium and high density residential, commercial, industrial and mixed use. Much of the area east of 1-95 is served by SLCU (the consolidated St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District), FPUA, Martin County (South Hutchinson Island) --aid), Port St. Lucie Utility Systems Department (and St. Lucie West)-_ The far western area of the County is planned as agricultural. Much of the area just west of Interstate 95 has been acquired by developers. Proposed developments in this area are in various stages of approvals and several may require land use designation changes through the Department of ram^,,,,, URit„ Affairs. Economic Opportunity. In anticipation of these areas being developed, SLCU is planning a series of three (3) to four (4) regional WTPs to provide service in the North, Central, and South County Service Areas. Level of Service Analysis The Level of Service and capacity analysis based upon future demand is contained in Section 4 of the 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan. The analysis shows that the existing and planned capital projects will provide sufficient capacity for the short term and long term planning periods. Capital Improvement Projects The CIE provides details of the planned capital improvement projects, the absence of which will impact the ability of the County to provide the required LOS. Table 4A-1 shows the planned capital projects within the planning period.

St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-6 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 280 7.R.2.a SOLID WASTE SUBELEMENT Introduction St. Lucie County has been operating its present landfill since 1978. In 1990, the County retained the firm of Camp Dresser & McKee (CDM) to prepare a Solid Waste Management Master Plan and Build -Out Plan of the current Baling and Recycling Facility site. An updated Build -Out Plan was prepared by CDM in August, 2005. This plan along with the August 2007 Baling and Recycling Facility Useful Life Projections (CDM, 2007) was used extensively for the preparation of this subelement. For the purpose of this element, the term solid waste excludes hazardous waste and has been used to include the following classifications which indicate general characteristics of the materials and their sources of generation. Residential wastes are mixed household wastes, including yard trash generated by the general population. Commercial wastes are generated by the commercial and institutional sectors. Physical characteristics of these wastes are similar to those of residential wastes, in that they consist largely of combustible materials in the form of paper and food waste from offices, restaurants, retail establishments, schools, hospitals, motels, and churches. Industrial wastes include wastes generated by industrial processes and manufacturing operations, excluding hazardous wastes. These wastes also include general industrial housekeeping and support activity wastes. Class I waste includes all residential/commercial solid waste. Construction and Debris (C & D) wastes are debris from construction sites. The term landfill refers to the final disposal site of solid wastes and, as it implies, involves the burial of the wastes. Landfills are classified for regulatory purposes according to the characteristics of the wastes they are permitted to receive. Existing Solid Waste Disposal Facilities Currently, solid wastes received by the County are disposed of at the St. Lucie County Baling and Recycling Facility, which is the only solid waste disposal facility currently permitted in the County. The County expects to continue to operate a landfill for the entire County indefinitely since the 1988 Solid Waste Management Act discourages municipalities from operating such facilities. The City of Port St. Lucie has an Interlocal Agreement which allows them to use the County facility. The County is desirous of establishing with the City of Fort Pierce a similar Interlocal Agreement. The current site, which was purchased with Federal Revenue Sharing Funds in 1977, is located between the Florida Turnpike and Interstate 95 in Sections 35 and 36, Range 39 East, Township 35 South. In the past, private haulers operated a number of other landfills throughout the County which have since either closed or become non -operational. Baling and Recycling Facility Site The present location of all solid waste disposal in the County is a three hundred and thirty three (333) - acre parcel of land located southwest of the City of Fort Pierce. The primary use of this landfill is as a municipal solid waste disposal (residential and commercial) and recycling facility. To determine the proportional capacity of the Baling St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-7 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 281 7.R.2.a and Recycling Facility that has been allocated to serve the City of Port St. Lucie, City of Fort Pierce, St. Lucie Village, and the unincorporated areas, the population estimates from the Florida Estimates of Population, March, 2009 (BEBR, 2009) report were used with the level of service standard determined by 8 year average generation rate as 5.10 pounds/capita/day for Class I waste to estimate the amount of waste produced. The level of service provided for C&D debris was 2.80 pounds/capita/day, which was calculated in a similar manner. The Class I landfill area is planned in six phases in addition to other ancillary areas. The Baling and Recycling Facility consists of (Phase 1) 28-acre, (Phase 11) 28-acres, (Phase III) 25-acres, (Phase IV) 21-acres, (Phase V) 21-acres, (Phase VI) 9.9 - acres of fill area for Class I garbage that is or will be permitted by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection under Permit No. 0126814-011-SC dated January 19, 2007. A summary of the acreage dedicated to each of the major land uses is shown in Table 413-1. Closure has been completed for Phase I, including capping the fill with a polyethylene liner. Phase II and Phase IIIA are currently active and accepting Class I waste. Phase IIIB was constructed in 2007 and is now receiving Class I waste.

The FDEP permitted finished height was ninety five (95) feet above existing grade in addition to a three (3)- foot access road dike on top of the fill area. Phases II and III are active and currently receiving waste.

Overall, the County gently slopes from west to east. Elevations range from about 60 feet, in the western portion, to sea level along the Atlantic coastal beaches, with scattered peaks associated with the above described ridges. The alignment of these surface ridges parallels the existing coastline and serves to impede east/west sheetflow. The St. Johns Marsh, Allapattah Flats, and the Savanna areas are wetlands formed by these natural impediments. The Allapattah Flats area is located in the southwestern portion of the County. This area drains predominantly, to the south/southeast, discharging into the area now occupied by the C-23 Canal. Portions of the St. Johns Marsh drain to the south into what is now the C-25 Canal basin. Water entering the Savannas normally percolated through the Atlantic Coastal Ridge to the Indian River, but during extremely high water stages there could be overflow to the North Fork of the St. Lucie River (NFSLR), through Platts Creek and several small sloughs. These wetland marshes store water and are believed to provide recharge to the shallow aquifer. The remaining central portions of the County serve as the watershed for the upper reaches of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River. There are other minor drainage ways where the Atlantic Coastal Ridge has been breached, such as Moore's Creek in Fort Pierce, but the areas drained are not very large and of no major significance on the overall drainage system for the County. The areas east of the Atlantic Coastal Ridge and along the barrier island are not included within any of the major drainage basins of the County. Stormwater discharge in these areas is essentially direct to the primary receiving body, the Indian River Lagoon or Atlantic Ocean. The stormwater detention time for most of St. Lucie County, prior to man's alteration, was extremely long. The natural features and drainage ways are still apparent on satellite imagery. However, today, the North Fork of the St. Lucie River still serves as the major, and least altered, natural drainage feature in the County. Manmade drainage systems Major surface drainage modifications to St. Lucie County commenced with the formation of the North St. Lucie River Water Control District (1917) and the Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District (1919). These Districts were created for the purpose of agricultural drainage and irrigation, with a secondary purpose being flood control activities. During the 1940s, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) channelized portions of the North Fork of the St. Lucie River in an effort to improve its water -carrying capacity and to accelerate its speed or discharge into the Atlantic Ocean. During the 1960s, the COE constructed Canals C-23, C-24, and C-25, along with their control structures. With the construction of this Primary Canal system for the South Florida Water Management District, the County was then divided into a series of Sub -Basins. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-11 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 285 7.R.2.a The C-25 Basin is located in the northwestern St. Lucie County and extends into parts of Okeechobee and Indian River County. This area is dominated by agricultural uses consisting of either citrus or ranching activities. The canal system in this area was designed to support agricultural activities. Although not the case in St. Lucie County, the western portions of this overall basin do not have any significant flood control protection, which could in times of extreme rainfall have detrimental effects in the downstream areas. With the absence of any significant urban development, local flooding is not presently a major problem in that on -site design requirements meet the current need. However, as elaborated further in this element, there is a need for a countywide review of this community's future drainage management requirements and this review will have to include the portions of this that lie outside of the County. The C-24 Basin is located in the Central and West -Central portions of the County. This basin may further be divided into three subgroups: emerging urban (east one-third), citrus (central one-third) and ranching (west one-third). One of the primary purposes of this basin is to regulate the level of ground water, through the controlling effects of the S- 49 control structure and to prevent the intrusion of saltwater into the local groundwater supplies. When initially constructed, this basin was designed to accommodate the agricultural needs of the area. The emergence of significant urban development may possibly cause a negative downstream impact, affecting the ability to efficiently move the water from the upper reaches of the Basin. The C-23 Basin is located in the south and southwestern portion of the County. This basin serves the agricultural needs of the southwest area. However, a significant portion of the basin is located in Martin County. This area is, at present, used for agricultural purposes, although, it's eastern edges face the potential impacts of future urban development. These emerging areas will have to be accommodated for through the development of interlocal agreements between all affected parties addressing the issue of urban discharge. The North Fork of the St. Lucie River Drainage Basin is located in the most populous part of St. Lucie County. This drainage basin includes within it the North St. Lucie River Water Control District, along with portions of the City of Port St. Lucie. As mentioned previously, in the 1940's the main river course was channelized by the Army Corps of Engineers. This channelization was effective in increasing the rate of water removal from the basin, but it also allowed for the increased collection and transmission of silt and other debris, affecting not only the long term carrying capacity of the North Fork itself, but also contributing to the accelerated siltation of the lower reaches of the St. Lucie River. The North Fork basin can be characterized as dominated by urban uses. What agricultural activities remain are in the western reaches of the district. However, it should be noted that although the basin serves an urban environment, the drainage design of this basin is based upon agricultural needs. This area has been the focus of several studies, evaluations and demonstration projects in recent years, attempting to improve upon its overall efficiency. As discussed later in this element, these efforts need to be continued and expanded. The Taylor Creek -Nubbins Slough (C-59 Basin) basin area is located in extreme southwestern St. Lucie County. This basin affects only 9.5 square miles of the County. Activities in this area are ranching with the remaining property being undeveloped/ vacant. There is effectively no impact upon the balance of the County by this basin since St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-12 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 286 7.R.2.a its flows are to the west and the Lake Okeechobee area. However, as addressed in the goals, objectives and policies portion of this element, attention to this area is needed on water -quality issues. Except for those efforts in Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie, almost all of the surface drainage modifications that have taken place have been designed for agricultural land uses, or approximately a ten-year-24-hour storm event. As these agricultural lands have become more urbanized, the volumes of stormwater have increased and runoff times have decreased, resulting in more frequent periodic local flooding. Because the more urbanized areas of the community are located in the downstream areas of much of the drainage system, the potential for urban area flooding has increased. Groundwater There are two distinct sources of groundwater in St. Lucie County: the shallow unconfined or semiconfined aquifer, and the deep artesian Floridan Aquifer. These aquifer systems are separated by a layer of relatively impermeable green clay known as the Hawthorne Formation, which is about 400 feet thick and starts at approximately 150 to 180 feet below the average land surface. The shallow aquifer system is comprised of one to five feet of fine-grained sands and silts of the Pimlico Sand that overlie the Anastasia Formation. The Anastasia Formation consists of interbedded layers and lenses of sand, shell beds, sandy limestone, and sandstone. Beds and lenses tend to be elongated in a direction that parallels the coast. Most of the permeable zones, which are primarily shell beds, are thin and, as a result, well yields are low to moderate. (USGS, 1972). Water quality is variable in the shallow aquifer due to natural and artificial causes. Water quality ranges from fair in the southeast mainland part of the County to brackish in the northwestern part of the County. The poorer water quality has been associated with the use of the brackish artesian aquifer for irrigation of citrus. However, drilling records and well water analysis indicate that there is also an area of connate saltwater that extends from the vicinity of St. Lucie Village to the northern and eastern shores of Lake Okeechobee. The concentration of minerals in the connate water increases with depth to the base of the shallow aquifer and at that point it exceeds the mineral content of the artesian aquifer. The artesian aquifer system is part of an extensive carbonate rock aquifer system that underlies most of Florida. In St. Lucie County, the artesian Floridian (sic) Aquifer has three distinct producing zones of different hydrologic properties and water quality separated by semipermeable zones. The upper producing zone, or Zone I, has the best water quality, but it is too brackish for domestic or public water supply. The water from Zone I is suitable for stock watering and some crops, most notably citrus. Most of the estimated 1,300 artesian wells in the County are developed in Zone I of the Floridan Aquifer. There is no natural groundwater recharge to the Floridan Aquifer in St. Lucie County. Producing zones, water quality, and other technical data are more extensively described in the SFWMD Technical Map Series 70-1. (SFWMD, 1979) Agricultural drainage projects between the urbanized coastal areas and Canals C-23 and C-24 have impacted the major sources of groundwater recharge to the shallow aquifer and lowered the water table. Areas such as the St. Johns Marsh and the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-13 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 287 7.R.2.a Allapattah Flats, which previously stored a large amount of water above the land surface to provide the hydraulic gradient needed to recharge the slightly permeable surficial aquifer have been drained for agricultural purposes. The Allapattah Flats west of the SFWMD canals and the remaining portions of the St. Johns Marsh still provide some degree of recharge, but the major sources for St. Lucie County are the St. Johns Marsh in Indian River County and the Orlando Ridge extension of the Osceola Plain (a marine terrace) in southwestern St. Lucie County and eastern Okeechobee County. The impacts of the construction of the canal drainage system on the groundwater contour levels in the County are illustrated. From inspection of these diagrams it can be seen that the groundwater flow from the western half of the County is effectively being intercepted by these major canals. This interception is then depriving the wellfields in the central and eastern regions of the County from a source of replenishment. As a result, recharge areas will need to be located and protected near the centers of the drainage basins to optimize their effects. The distance between water -level contours, when matched with the hydraulic gradient of topographic relief, indicates the relatively permeability of the surficial aquifer: the greater the distance between contours, the higher the permeability. This is exemplified in the area bounded by SFWMD C-23 and C-24 canals, where the land surface has little relief and the water level contours are miles apart. Many secondary drainage systems have been constructed for agricultural drainage. However, most of these secondary systems are shallow and are designed to prevent ponding. This impacts the groundwater recharge. Because of the lack of recharge and the low permeability of the soils, the shallow aquifer provides insufficient water for irrigation during the extended dry season. SFWMD Canals C-23, C-24 and C-25 serve as linear storage reservoirs and provide irrigation supply for many areas although, in extreme periods of drought, they too may only be used in a minimal capacity due to the lack of surface water. To compensate for this, many agricultural operations will use the Floridan Aquifer for much of their irrigation demand. The problem associated with the use of this aquifer area is irrigation return (excess) flows from the Floridan Aquifer water are mineralized. These flows in turn mineralize the receiving canals. Natural Groundwater Recharge Currently, there are no defined aquifer recharge areas in the County. The South Florida Water Management District through the Upper East Coast Water Supply Plan, is attempting to identify the aquifer recharge areas in the County, in addition to identifying the areas where existing problems are occurring and area that may have future problems. The County will continue to monitor the Water Management District as they work to define these areas. Additionally, the Floridan Aquifer is not recharged within St. Lucie County, but rather primary recharge of that aquifer occurs in the more central portions of the State. Local Drainage Issues On the average, St. Lucie County receives about 53 inches of rain per year primarily during the period from June to October. It is recognized that from time to time, portions St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-14 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 288 7.R.2.a of the County will experience flooding problems as a result of heavy rainfall. Much of the local flooding that occurs can be attributed to development carried out before the advent of contemporary stormwater management practices. Most of the drainage problem areas are located in the North Fork Drainage Basin. However, there are documented problems in other parts of the County as well. St. Lucie County has continued to work on drainage improvement projects that are designed to provide relief to small areas of the community. These improvements are not intended to be a comprehensive cure for the problem because they are limited in the areas they impact. The improvements are not system -wide and as such will have little wide-ranging impact. However, if successful, they should provide a degree of intermediate relief of limited scope and duration to the afflicted area. Drainage Improvements Ten Mile Creek Regional Attenuation Facility The Ten Mile Creek Water Preserve Area attenuates summer stormwater flows into the North Fork of the St. Lucie River Estuary which originate in the Ten Mile Creek basin by capturing and storing the passing stormwater. The sedimentation of suspended solids that occurs in the storage reservoir reduces sediment loads delivered to the estuary. In addition, the captured stormwater is passed through a polishing cell for additional water quality treatment before being released into the North Fork. Stored water can be released in the drier winter months to augment current insufficient flows. Stabilizing the salinity concentration will greatly enhance the Estuary's ability to support sea grasses, oysters, and nursery grounds for marine fish. Ten Mile Creek is the largest sub -basin delivering water to the North Fork of the St. Lucie River Estuary, which has been established as an Outstanding Florida Water (OFW). The St. Lucie Estuary discharges into the Indian River Lagoon, which is also an OFW. The Indian River Lagoon is the most biologically diverse estuary in North America. The entire Lagoon is endangered from increased runoff from watershed drainage enhancements. Excess stormwater due to drainage improvements is causing radical fluctuations of the salinity concentration in the St. Lucie Estuary. Storage of excess water will allow its measured release, and hence a more natural salinity regime. This project is a critical restoration project, which was authorized by Congress under the Water Resources Development Act of 1996. The project was implemented by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, with the South Florida Water Management District acting as the local project sponsor. St. Lucie County is contributing local matching funds and assisting with coordination of local issues and permitting. The reservoir is located immediately west of the Gordy Road spillway on the south side of the Ten Mile Creek. The site is just west of the Florida Turnpike, about one-half mile south of Okeechobee Road (State Road 70). The footprint of the reservoir is approximately 550 acres in size, with the remaining acreage of approximately 190 acres being utilized as a polishing cell. Based upon existing topography, stored water depths average ten feet. Total storage capacity is approximately 5,000 acre-feet. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-15 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 289 7.R.2.a Central and Southern Florida "Restudy" The Central and Southern Florida Comprehensive Review Study ("Restudy") complete in 1999 is an ambitious Federal/State undertaking to restore and preserve South Florida's natural ecosystems while enhancing water supplies and flood control. The Restudy Comprehensive Plan was developed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and South Florida Water Management District in collaboration with more than 30 other agencies. Under the Restudy Plan, $7.8 billion worth of construction and other implementation costs will be shared equally by the Federal government and the citizens of Florida over more than 20 years. An additional $172 million per year will be required to operate and maintain the project once fully underway. Specific funding mechanisms still must be identified, with a variety being considered. The Restudy involves a review of the region's water management system known as the Central and Southern Florida (C&SF) Project. Issues to be addressed include: flood control, water supply, water management, saltwater intrusion and ecosystem restoration. The original C&SF project is 50 years old and needs to be modernized. This huge, manmade system has had unintended effects on the natural environment, including the Everglades, Lake Okeechobee, the coastal estuaries and Florida Bay. While still in the planning stages, the Restudy may involve many new components, including: reservoirs to store water (Ten Mile Creek Project), underground barriers to slow seepage, facilities to inject fresh water underground for retrieval later, reuse of treated wastewater, removal or modification of selected canals and maintaining water levels to prevent saltwater intrusion. The C&SF Project encompasses approximately 18,000 square miles from Orlando to the Florida Keys. Major features include: the Kissimmee River, Lake Okeechobee, the Everglades Agricultural Area, the Water Conservation Areas, Everglades National Park, Big Cypress National Preserve, the Caloosahatchee and St. Lucie Rivers and Biscayne and Florida Bays. The Restudy will improve our natural systems ranging from Lake Okeechobee to Florida Bay. The St. Lucie Estuary will benefit from fewer regulatory releases, which send too much fresh water to tide during heavy rains and will receive needed water during drier times. Both efforts will help protect the estuary's delicate salt and fresh water balance. Stabilizing the salinity concentration will greatly enhance the estuary's ability to support sea grasses, oysters, and nursery grounds for marine fish. Additionally, large water reservoirs are planned in the C-23, C-24, C-25 C-24, North and South Fork Drainage Basins. Projects similar to the Ten Mile Creek Regional Attenuation Facility will be planned for all of the large drainage basins. Results of the Restudy resulted in the IRL-South Plan detailed in the Conservation Element. Upper East Coast Water Supply Plan The Upper East Coast (UEC) Water Supply Plan (WSP) was completed by the South Florida Water Management District and accepted by the Board of County Commissioners in February 1998. The Upper East Coast Plan includes Martin, St. Lucie, and a small portion of Okeechobee County. The District updated the UEC WSP in 2004. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-16 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 290 7.R.2.a In 2006 the District issued the 2006 UEC Plan Amendment. An additional update was issued in 2011, and is the current version as of June 2014. The purpose of the Plan is to provide a framework for future water use decisions to provide adequate water supply for urban areas, agriculture, and the environment through year 2025. The purpose of the 2006 Plan Amendment is te previde IOGal governments with infermatieR GenGen4p'g revisions to state laws relevant to water supply planning and the potable wate ,. —vi.ions ee„tained%ea^Gh IeGal government's Eernprehens+ve RlafT2011 Plan Update assesses projected water demands and potential sources of water for the period of 2010 to 2030. The plan estimates the future water supply needs of urban areas and agriculture, weighs those demands against historically used water sources, and identifies areas where demands cannot be met without harming the resource and environment, including wetlands. The plan evaluates the potential of several alternative water source options to meet any unmet demand and makes recommendations for their development. The planning document is the product of a public process. The District held a series of public workshops during the plan development process. The process weighed urban, agricultural and environmental water demands against supplies. The Plan developed the following regional objectives to ensure that the Water Supply Plan would address the specific needs of the Upper East Coast: 1. Water Supply: Identify sufficient sources of water to meet projected 2025 water demands during a 1-in-10 year drought event, without causing harm to natural resources. 2. Conservation and Alternative Source Development: Increase levels of conservation to increase the efficiency of water use; and, increase the use of alternatives sources to reduce dependency on drought susceptible water sources. _ 3. Floridan Aquifer: Encourage development of the Floridan Aquifer as an option to sources that depend on local rainfall for recharge. Establish a monitoring >, program to collect data to better understand the relationship between water use, a water levels and water quality. 4. Estuarine and Riverine Systems: Protect and enhance the Loxahatchee River, the St. Lucie River and Estuary and the Indian River Lagoon through effective water deliveries and management of the water resources. L 5. Water Resource Protection: Protect wetland systems and the water resources from harm due to water use, including drawdowns and harmful movement of e saline water. r 6. Compatibility with Local Governments: Coordinate the UEC Water Supply Plan with the water supply related elements of local government. N 7. Other Regional Planning Efforts: Achieve compatibility with other related regional water resource planning efforts. These include the Indian River Lagoon E (IRL) Surface Water Improvement and Management (SWIM) Plan, Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan (CERP), CERP IRL — South r Project, CERP North Palm Beach County Project Part 1, Lake Okeechobee Q SWIM Plan, Lower East Coast and Kissimmee Basin Water Supply Plans, IRL National Estuary Program Comprehensive Conservation and Management Plan, St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD) District wide Water Supply Assessment and Northern Palm Beach County Comprehensive Water St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-17 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 291 7.R.2.a Management Plan (source 2004 UEC WSP). The 2004 Update identified eight water source options to address the needs of the Upper East Coast region, including: 1. Surface Water. 2. Aquifer Storage and Recovery. 3. Floridan Aquifer System. 4. Surficial Aquifer System. 5. Conservation. 6. Reclaimed Water. 7. Reservoirs. 8. Seawater. Specific goals or strategies were identified for each of the eight options to be implemented as part of the implementation of the UEC Water Supply Plan. Responsible agencies to carry out the goals were identified, along with probable sources of funding. The 2004 UEC Water Supply Plan contains three volumes in total, including: The Planning Document, dated June, 2004; The Consolidated Water Supply Support Document, dated August 2005; and The Appendices Document, dated June 2004. The 2006 Plan Amendment contains three volumes in total, including the 2006 Plan Amendment, the 2006 Appendices, and the 2006 Consolidated Water Supply Plan Support Document 2005-2006. The 2011 UEC Plan update includes the Planning Document, accompanying Appendix volume and the 2011-2012 Water Supply Plan Support Document. More detailed information concerning the Plan and planning process can be obtained within the referenced documents. Indian River Lagoon Comprehensive Plan In July 1996, the Board of County Commissioners adopted the Indian River Lagoon Comprehensive Conservation & Management Plan (CCMP). The Plan was published in May of 1996 by the members of the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program (NEP) Management Conference, in cooperation with SJRWMD, SFWMD, and the U.S. EPA. With the publication of the Plan (IRLCCP) more than 100 agencies and local governments with management responsibilities for the Lagoon agreed on a unified strategy to preserve and restore the Lagoon. The Plan was formally adopted by the governor and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The Plan contains more than 69 recommended actions addressing critical problems such as the preservation of wetlands, sea grass restoration, endangered species protection, water and sediment quality improvement, land acquisition needs, and the means of funding preservation and restoration activities. All of these actions have the express purpose of protecting the integrity, diversity and productivity of the Indian River Lagoon. According to the Indian River Lagoon (CCMP) Plan, "Freshwater and stormwater discharges represent the largest nonpoint source of pollution to the Indian River Lagoon." St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-18 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 292 7.R.2.a Over the years, these discharges have resulted in muck (or "ooze") deposits and sedimentation in the Lagoon and its tributaries. This deposition and sedimentation has caused the loss of seagrass beds with resulting impacts to fisheries and shellfish populations. On occasions, increased loadings of nutrients from freshwater discharges have caused algae blooms and resulted in fish kills. The formation of a Stormwater Management Program by St. Lucie County is an important first step in implementing the goals of the IRLCCMP Plan. This local government program forms the basis for funding and implementing improvements to our County stormwater management system. Capital Improvement Projects The CIE provides details of the planned drainage projects, the absence of which will impact the ability of the drainage systems to provide the required LOS. Stormwater Management Master Plan In 1992, a Stormwater Management Master Plan was completed and adopted for the unincorporated areas of the County. The Master Plan addressed the needs of the major canals of the primary and secondary stormwater management system. The canals, which were analyzed, are owned and operated by either North St. Lucie River Water Control District (NSLRWCD), Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District (FPFWCD), or South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). The Master Plan concluded that generally the secondary stormwater management system serves the County well for the ten-year, 24-hour storm event. The Master Plan recommended that the County continue to use the ten-year, 24-hour storm event (approximately 6.5 inches of rainfall in a 24-hour period) as the Level of Service standard for flood protection for roadways. This Level of Service standard is incorporated in the County's Land Development Code. The Master Plan recommended several capital improvement projects for the secondary stormwater management system, including: mechanically operated gates, electrically operated gates, upsizing and lowering selected culvert pipes, and installing fixed -crest weirs at selected locations to improve water quality of stormwater discharge from the secondary drainage canals into the St. Lucie River. All of the improvements recommended by the plan fall within the secondary canals owned by the North St. Lucie River Water Control District or the Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District. Many of these recommendations have already been implemented. The Master Plan confirmed, "Flooding is far more prevalent in the secondary and local network systems that drain into the primary drainage canal system. A few examples include, but are not limited to: the Carlton Road area, portions of White City, Sunland Gardens, Paradise Park, and large agricultural ownerships in the western portion of the County. Although the primary drainage system could accommodate stormwater from these areas, the secondary or local network systems have not been improved (or do not exist) to transport the runoff from these troubled areas to the primary canal system." The Plan recognizes that "throughout unincorporated St. Lucie County, many isolated areas have little or no real drainage improvements and no access to a primary or secondary drainage system." Much of this was created when land was subdivided without proper St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-19 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 293 7.R.2.a planning of drainage and drainage outfalls. Other problem areas lie within the floodplain of natural creeks or streams. Many of the existing secondary and local network drainage systems in the County were constructed many years ago, prior to permitting requirements for water quality treatment of stormwater discharges. Consequently, there were no provisions made for treatment of stormwater for water quality improvement prior to discharge to the primary canal system. The 1992 Master Plan document and the County staff have compiled a listing of problem areas that are known to be flood prone historically. More details are available in the Master Plan document. Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Program (CERP) The Conservation Element provides details on CERP programs including the IRL South Plan. The CERP IRL projects will provide benefits to the primary drainage system and water quality. The County's Capital Improvements projects will provide benefits to the secondary and local drainage systems. Levels of Service The Level of Service standard as defined by the 1992 Stormwater Master Plan is outlined in Table 4-C-1. Drainage rules in the Land Development Code are tied to the rules of the SFWMD.

SANITARY SEWER SUB ELEMENT Introduction The Sanitary Sewer Sub -element provides a complete summary of the wastewater treatment facilities in St. Lucie County. Sanitary sewer services are provided in only a small portion of the unincorporated County. Central utility services are provided by the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA), the Port St. Lucie Utility Systems Department, St. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-20 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 294 7.R.2.a Lucie County Utilities, or St. Lucie West Utility District. Generally, St. Lucie County Utilities provides sanitary sewer service to those properties located on North and South Hutchinson Island and within the Holiday Pines neighborhood on the mainland. The County also owns and operates a small wastewater treatment facility in the Lakewood Park subdivision. Those multi -family residential developments and Planned Unit Developments in the unincorporated County that are not serviced by St. Lucie County Utilities are serviced by their own on -site wastewater treatment plants (WWTP). Most of the single-family home sites in the unincorporated County are served with individual septic tanks. The importance of the municipal regional systems and on -site treatment facilities is noted. Existing Planning Documents St. Lucie County completed the Water and Wastewater Master Plan in October of 2008 and the 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan in December of 2008 which will serve as the overall planning documents for potable water facilities. The more recently updated of the planning documents (Master Plan or Water Supply Facilities Work Plan) will be the prevailing planning document until such time as the other is updated; edits will be made to the comprehensive plan elements to incorporate the updates during the next regularly scheduled cycle. The two (2) major urban areas of the County, Fort Pierce and Port St. Lucie, have regionalized potable water treatment and distribution systems. St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) is currently developing a regional wastewater treatment and collection system to serve unincorporated areas of the County within the urban service boundary. The City of Fort Pierce completed a master plan update for water and wastewater in September 2006. Geographic Service Area Figure 2-1 in the Water Supply Facilities Work Plan outlines general areas of sanitary sewer service for the major regional facilities now operating in the County. The regional facilities servicing unincorporated St. Lucie County are: St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) These facilities are described below. Other sub -regional franchises also operate in the County, but their area is usually limited to a single development or a relatively small area. Regional Facilities St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District (formerly known as Holiday Pines Service Corporation): The service area of the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District water and wastewater utilities lies within the St. Lucie County Utilities (SLCU) mainland north county service area. The St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District service area includes the Holiday Pines subdivision and some additional commercial and residential areas fronting Kings Highway and Indrio Road. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-21 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 295 7.R.2.a In August 2005, the North Hutchinson Island Utility District, the Airport Utility District, the North County (Holiday Pines) Utility District, the Mid County District, the Indian River Estates MSBU District and the H.E.W. Utility District were consolidated into a single utility district now known as the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District. As such, the below mentioned North Hutchinson Island Utility District service area is now included in this District. The St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District (Holiday Pines) WWTP is a field -erected, precast package plant with a design capacity of 0.3 MGD. The WWTP is located on a 9.8-acre utility site near the Indian Pines Golf Course. Seven (7) percolation ponds are utilized for effluent disposal. Concentrate from the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District water treatment plant is also discharged into these ponds. Sludge from the facility is lime stabilized and hauled to land application sites. There are no plans to expand the Holiday Pines WWTP.: however, there are current plans to convert this facility to a water reclamation facility (WRF) that will produce reclaimed water. Upon completion of the North County Regional Water ReGlama+inn Ponili+., nniRF+WRF, the Holiday Pines WWTPWRF will be decommissioned and replaced with a master lift station to redirect flow to the new facility. North Hutchinson Island: The North Hutchinson Island Utility District was consolidated into the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District in August 2005. St. Lucie County Utilities owns and operates the North Hutchinson Island wastewater collection system and a 0.5 MGD WWTPWRF. The County is currently planning the expansion of the facility to increase the capacity to 0.885 MGD. This plant produces reclaimed water that is made available to nearly all of the larger developed parcels on the island. The upgraded WWTPWRF was placed into service in January 1996. This facility was permitted through the FDEP for 0.50 MGD of treatment capacity. This upgraded WAITPWRF replaced two (2) smaller sub -regional package treatment plants, one at the Bryn Mawr utility site and one at the Sands utility site, in addition to a number of individual WWTPs that served individual residential developments. South Hutchinson Island: In 1996/1997, the South Hutchinson Island wastewater collection and treatment system was constructed by St. Lucie County to provide central sewer service for the portion of South Hutchinson Island located outside of the City of Fort Pierce. Just as with the North Hutchinson Island service area, this system was intended to eliminate all of the numerous individual wastewater package treatment plants that had been constructed in the absence of a centralized treatment network. Many of these existing WWTPs and all existing lift stations were upgraded or replaced to meet St. Lucie County Utility standards and a force main system was constructed to connect these lift stations to the new WWTPWRF. The WWTPWRF was designed to accommodate build out flows for South Hutchinson Island (based on a build out population of 15,150 residents. The primary method of effluent disposal is reclaimed water irrigation, with backup disposal provided by discharge to the FPL Nuclear Power Plant ocean discharge canal. This WWTPWRF was permitted for 1.6 MGD and utilizes a conventional plug flow, extended aeration, activated sludge process followed by filtration and high-level disinfection to produce reclaimed water for irrigation. The plant is located on a 19.2 acre, St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-22 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 296 7.R.2.a county -owned site approximately two (2) miles south of the FPL Nuclear Power Plant on the west side of A-1-A. Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA): According to the September 2006 FPUA Water and Wastewater Master Plan, FPUA operates the Island Water Reclamation Facility with a permitted capacity of twelve (12) MGD (max month average daily flow) on the barrier island. This facility provides service to approximately 49,029 residents throughout their service area and treats an average of 5.62 MGD, less than half of the permitted capacity. FPUA produces reclaimed water which is almost exclusively provided to the Florida Municipal Power Agency for use in cooling towers at the Treasure Coast Energy Center. The Island Water Reclamation Facility also utilizes approximately 300,000 gpd of reclaimed water for wash down and irrigation purposes. FPUA is in the planning process for the construction of a mainland water reclamation facility located in the proximity of the County's landfill. Reclaimed water from the proposed facility may be allocated to the proposed Plasma Arc Gasification Facility planned at the landfill. The FPUA, via a bulk user agreement with the County, has extended its wastewater service beyond the boundaries of the City of Fort Pierce, and presently serves areas in unincorporated St. Lucie County including the Central Service Area through bulk service. Privately Owned Utilities with Capacities Greater Than 0.1 MGD Located Within the Unincorporated Area Panther Woods her WoodsMeadowood: Meadowood owns and operates an on - site WWTP with a permitted capacity of 0.18 MGD, but is limited to 0.105 MGD due to the size of the existing chlorine contact basins. The facility serves a current population of approximately 1,040 residents. Treated effluent is supplemented with well water and used to irrigate the 120-acre Panther Woods Golf Course. Spanish Lakes Country Club: Spanish Lakes Country Club is an adult mobile home community with approximately 1,300 mobile home lots. The community is built out and is home to 3,040 residents. The WWTP serving the Spanish Lakes Country Club is a field - erected, precast concrete package plant with a permitted capacity of 0.160 MGD. Average daily flow is 0.121 MGD. This plant utilizes the extended aeration process to produce a secondary effluent. Effluent disposal facilities include a one -cell percolation pond and a three -cell drainfield. Sludge from this facility is lime stabilized on -site and hauled to land application sites. The WWTP is adequately sized for the development it serves, but is has no excess capacity. There is minimal area available for expansion on the WWTP site. Spanish Lakes Fairways: Spanish Lakes Fairways is a 1,600 unit (3,200 residents) adult community located in the northwest portion of the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District service area. The Spanish Lakes Fairways WWTP is a field -erected, precast concrete package plant with a permitted capacity of 0.250 MGD. Average daily plant flow is 0.116 MGD. The plant utilizes the extended aeration process to produce reclaimed water that meets FDEP standards for public access irrigation. The plant consists of two (2) separate treatment trains which include: two (2) 0.127 mg aeration basins with mechanical surface aerators, two (2) rectangular clarifiers, two (2) sand St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-23 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 297 7.R.2.a filters, two (2) 0.025 mg digesters and a baffled chlorine contact tank. The primary means of effluent disposal is irrigation on the development's private golf course. A lined pond is provided adjacent to the WWTP for reclaimed water storage. Backup effluent disposal capacity is provided by three (3) percolation ponds at the WWTP site. Sludge from the facility is lime stabilized on -site and hauled to land application sites. The WWTP is designed to accommodate the community to build out. The maximum flow is 0.142 MGD, or approximately fifty-six (56) percent of the plant's permitted capacity. The excess capacity will be utilized to serve additional phases of the development. There is limited area available for expansion of the wastewater treatment plan. Package Treatment Plants There are numerous package treatment plants within the County that make up a significant portion of the wastewater treatment capacity in the County. Many of these package plants are concentrated in the White City and Indrio Road areas. Some of these plants have experienced difficulties in effluent disposal, where disposal systems have failed. The majority of the package plants within the County are under consent order and the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) has urged each facility (through their permit renewal process) to seek connection to a central sewer system where available and feasible. As such, these facilities are slowly being connected to the public sewer systems available within the County. Septic Tanks Septic tank systems are used principally for the treatment of wastewater from individual residences. In rural areas they are also used for establishments such as schools, motels, rural hotels, trailer parks, housing projects, camps and others. It is impossible to determine the current number of septic tanks in the County since, prior to 1984, the rules and regulations were different and some septic tanks were installed without permits. With the expansion and availability of public utility in the Port St Lucie area, the concentration of septic system use is being decreased by attrition as systems reach the end of their useful life and connection to sewer is mandated by Statute and city policy. Effluent from septic tanks is normally discharged to a drainfield where it is allowed to percolate into the ground. Soil permeability and depth to the wet season water table are limiting factors on septic tank drainfield performance and may require construction of elevated drainage field grounds to ensure adequate performance. Figures FLU 3a and FLU 3b indicate the general soil types present in St. Lucie County as identified in the Soil Survey of St. Lucie County (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 1980). As this figure indicates, virtually all soils within the County (98.4 percent), excluding a small area located on the Atlantic Coastal Ridge west of the Intracoastal Waterway, have moderate or severe limitations for septic tank drainage fields. Due to the unsuitability of the soil, the St. Lucie County Health Department, which permits all septic tank system installations in the County, requires 95 percent excavation of the drainfield area and backfilling with acceptable material. Needs Assessment St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-24 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 298 7.R.2.a The unincorporated County presently has wastewater service provided by three (3) major municipal utilities (FPUA, Port St. Lucie Utilities and SLCU), several medium sized utilities (St. Lucie West and private utilities), small package plants, and septic tanks. This section examines the needs of those areas in the County which are not included in the major or medium sized utilities or in the service areas now identified by those wastewater utilities. The area of growth in the unincorporated County directly corresponds to the urban service areas for water and sewer service. The area west of this growth area of the County is planned as agricultural. The most intense development in these areas is expected to occur along the 1-95 corridor with concentrations at the Gatlin Boulevard 1-95 Intersection, mid -County, and the north County area. Other areas of the unincorporated County exhibiting needs include the Savannah Club area extending north past Tilton Road to Easy Street. With a few exceptions, all of the package plants were designed to serve a small community, condominium, or commercial area. These plants are designed with a specific capacity in mind, determined by the proposed size of the development and the standards set by the FDEP for flow per unit. Therefore, these developments neither have appreciable excess capacity, nor do they exhibit appreciable needs beyond their initial design capacity. FDEP has urged each of the remaining facilities to seek connection to a central sewer system where available and feasible. Because these smaller plants require daily attention, tend to wear out with time, and occupy increasingly valuable land, many are candidates for connection to a regional system within the next 20 years. With areas of proliferation of the small plants a County supported regional system would be a viable improvement in the future. Level of Service Analysis The St. Lucie County utilities service area is separated into several sub -service area: North Hutchinson Island Service Area from the Fort Pierce Inlet north to the Indian River County Line on the barrier island; South Hutchinson Island Service Area from the Martin County Line north to the Fort Pierce City Limits on the barrier island; the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District from the Indian River Lagoon to the east, the Indian River County Line to the north, Interstate 95 to the west and St. Lucie Boulevard to the south; and the unincorporated County service areas (north, central and south) as illustrated on Figure 2-1 of the Water Supply Facilities Work Plan. The service areas for FPUA and the City of Port St. Lucie are also depicted on the same Figure. A level of service for wastewater facilities has been defined by the FDEP at 100 gallons per day per capita (gpcd) of capacity. This makes some allowance for infiltration. Treatment facilities should be planning for expansion when they reach 80 percent of their flow capacity, and under construction at 90 percent of their flow capacity. The level of service standard for sanitary sewer systems other than those owned and operated by FPUA shall be 100 gpcd. The LOS standard for those areas of the unincorporated County served by FPUA shall be 110 gpcd (FPUA Master Plan, September 2006). St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-25 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 299 7.R.2.a The population projections for each of the service areas indicates that as St. Lucie County grows there will be a need for additional service capacity within the existing wastewater service facilities. Table 4D-1 provides the projected population within the Service Areas for the years 2011, 2015, 20120, 2025 and 2030. As this table indicates a significant portion of the County's overall population resides in an area located outside the service area of the St. Lucie County Utilities. Those areas lying outside of the County's service area will be provided wastewater service via the following methods: one (1) of the other two (2) public utility providers - FPUA or City of Port St. Lucie Utilities; an on -site package wastewater treatment plant or via an on -site septic system.

Capacity Assessment St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-26 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 300 7.R.2.a Many of the WWTPs in St. Lucie County are small package plants intended to serve individual communities, businesses, and condominiums. This type of facility has no significance in a capacity assessment, since it is not large enough to provide service to an expanded service area. The following particular observances are made: • The FPUA is capable of receiving flow from their expanded service area. • The South Hutchinson Island WWTPWRF is capable of handling flows at the projected build out conditions (district south of the FPL nuclear power plant). •Panther Woods Countr Meadowood Golf and Tennis Club is underutilized, but is designed to serve a specific development at build out. Although continued development has not been significant, future use of this plant as additional development does take place is likely. • Reserve Utility Corporation is adequate for present needs, and is planning to expand as development takes place inside The Reserve. • St. Lucie West is capable of handling growth in its service area and planned to grow with the development. • Spanish Lakes Country Club Village is built out. • Spanish Lakes MHP is built out. • Port St. Lucie Utility Systems Department has adequate capacity for incoming flows and for growth. The above analysis indicates in general a capacity for growth in the municipal service areas, newer planned developments in the unincorporated County (e.g., The Reserve), and some of the Hutchinson Island communities. Growth in all of the other unincorporated areas of the County will require additional wastewater transport and treatment facilities. Northern Service Area: The current Holiday Pines facility is an extended aeration concrete package plant with a permitted capacity of 0.3 MGD. Effluent is currently disposed through two (2) groups of percolation ponds. The first group is comprised of three (3) ponds with a total of area of 95,900 square feet. The second group is comprised of four (4) ponds with a total area of 70,600 square feet. The combined ponds are also permitted to dispose up to 0.120 MGD of Reverse Osmosis brine from the Holiday Pines Water Treatment Plant. It is anticipated that the ponds will provide adequate effluent disposal capacity up to the permitted 0.3 MGD capacity of the existing facility. The Holiday Pines facility is currently being upgraded to produce reclaimed water for use as irrigation water at the neighboring golf course, which will greatly reduce and/or eliminate effluent disposal to the percolation ponds. Current wastewater flows at the Holiday Pines Wastewater Treatment Facility are nearing capacity. In order to accommodate the population growth needs and wastewater demands into the year 2030 and anticipated growth in the North County area, the following wastewater facility needs and improvements were identified: • Decommissioning of the Holiday Pines WWTPWRF upon completion of the new regional facility. • Construct and operate, by 291-42018, a new North County Regional Water Reclamation Facility to be located south of Indrio Road and east of Taylor Dairy Road. This facility shall at construction contain: St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-27 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 301 7.R.2.a a) Initial capacity of 2 MGD by 20142018. b) Increase capacity to 4 MGD by 2 as needed, with provisions to expand to ultimate buildout of 6 MGD aswhen needed to accommodate future development. c) Provide equipment capable of treating the wastewater product to unrestricted public access irrigation. d) Potentially construct a deep injection well for wet weather disposal of reclaimed water, or implementation of identified alternative beneficial reuse project for disposal of reclaimed water. e) Construct a bio-solids dewatering facility at the North County Regional Water Reclamation Facility (WRF). Provide service to the existing and future developments within the St. Lucie County Water and Sewer District Service Area. Central Service Area: The County will be constructing an in+ornE)nnon+ to Goy Boa Central Regional WRF to provide service to this area. poi Jo has c„ffinieRt nononity f„r the nOnnon+inn during the next 10-year planning period.. (2023 — 2032). This WRF, like the proposed North County WRF, will be constructed with an initial capacity of 2.0 mqd with provisions for incremental expansions up to 6.0 mqd. The future capacity needs will either be addressed by ,a future n^aiRIand VV NTo A-.r aincremental expansion of the SLCU WWTPCentral Regional WRF. South Service Area: The St. Lucie County Parks and Recreation Department owns and operates a wastewater collection and treatment system serving the St. Lucie County Fairgrounds and the County's Emergency Operations Center. The facility has a capacity of 0.0314 MGD. Per the 2008 Water and Sewer Master Plan, the County is planning to construct a Southern Regional WWTPWRF at the end of the planning period to supply the required capacity. North Hutchinson Island: SLCU owns and operates a wastewater collection and treatment system that serves the majority of North Hutchinson Island with the exception of approximately 383 single-family homes and the Fort Pierce Inlet State Park. The County is currently planning the expansion of the facility to increase capacity from 0.5 MGD to 0.985 MGD. The projected connected wastewater flow approaches the design capacity of the existing North Hutchinson Island WWTWRF around 2020. In order to maintain sufficient wastewater capacity at the North Hutchinson Island WWTPWRF to maintain quality service at the build out of North Hutchinson Island, the - II ,.foil hWVe +„ conside add+t+enaICounty's planned expansions of the facility towill meet future demand. South Hutchinson Island: South Hutchinson Island is serviced by St. Lucie County Utilities. The South Hutchinson Island District Wastewater Utility was created under Resolution 07-208. In 1995, St. Lucie County constructed a 1.6 MGD wastewater and reclaimed water facility. This facility is designed to accommodate build out of South Hutchinson Island. The County maintains a bank of capacity that can be transferred to properties within the service area to accommodate development. The County has adopted a policy to transfer capacity through the County Utility Office. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-28 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 302 7.R.2.a Currently over ninety (90) percent of the total wastewater flow from the South Hutchinson Island District Wastewater Utility service area is collected and treated. The only area not currently connected to the system includes five condominiums in the Island Dunes Complex. This condominium complex is serviced by a private WWTP that produces reclaimed water for irrigation of the golf course. As the overall system on South Hutchinson Island was designed to accommodate the maximum build out within the County's service area on the island, no additional expansions are required or planned within the twenty (20) - year planning cycle. FPUA serves all wastewater customers on South Hutchinson Island within their service area. SLCU serves the Island from FPUA's service boundary south to the Martin County line. Sanitary Sewer Facility Replacement, Expansion and New Facility Siting: Because of the importance that the provision of sanitary sewer service will play in the development of the County and also significant pressures for the County to enter into the provision of such services, St. Lucie County Utilities adopted a Water and Wastewater Master Plan for the unincorporated County in 1992. The Master Plan was updated in August, 2000, February 2004, and October, 2008. The 2008 Water and Wastewater Master Plan Update is used in conjunction with the Comprehensive Plan as a planning tool. These plans address the need for renewal, replacement, facility expansions and siting of new and proposed facilities. Capital Improvement Projects The CIE provides details of the planned capital improvement projects, the absence of which will impact the ability of the County to provide the required LOS. Table 4D-3 shows the planned capital projects within the planning period.

Policy 4D.2.3.2 - The County shall consider for acquisition those private utilities which would benefit the public welfare through acquisition by the County. Policy 4D.2.3.3 - When areas previously served by package treatment plants are connected to a central system, it shall not be the responsibility of the central system to purchase these package treatment plants or incur the cost associated with removal. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 4-44 Infrastructure Element October 26, 2010 Packet Pg. 318 7.R.2.a Appendix D Capital Improvements Element (CIE) Packet Pg. 319 7.R.2.a CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ELEMENT DATA INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS Purpose The purpose of the capital improvements element is to evaluate the need for public facilities as identified in the other comprehensive plan elements and as defined in the applicable definitions for each type of public facility, to estimate the cost of improvements for which the local government has fiscal responsibility, to analyze the fiscal capability of the local government to finance and construct improvements, to adopt financial policies to guide the funding of improvements and to schedule the funding and construction of improvements in a manner necessary to ensure that capital improvements are provided when required based on needs identified in the other comprehensive plan elements. The element shall also include the requirements to ensure that an adequate concurrency management system will be implemented by local governments pursuant to Rule 9J-5.0055, F.A.C., of this chapter. Relationship to the other Elements of the Comprehensive Plan The Capital Improvements Element summarizes the needed capital facilities as identified in the other elements of the County's Comprehensive Plan. These needs include those necessary to correct existing deficiencies in meeting Level of Service Standards while providing for future needs. Deficiencies were determined by comparing the current facilities to the currently adopted/proposed Level of Service Standard. Public Facility Needs The determination of facility needs within each Element considers the level of service, required repairs or renovations that reflect new system capacity, and new growth demands for projects. A relative priority of need among facility types has been indicated through the extent of improvements scheduled within this CIE update. The projects summarized in the Schedule of Capital Improvements have been previously identified in the following Elements within the adopted St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan: drainage, potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parks & recreation, transportation and schools. Each project has been prioritized in consideration of available 5 year funding. The analysis of needs for each public facility is analyzed here. The County classified public facilities according to their relationship with the Concurrency Management System. Used in conjunction with the adopted Level of Service Standards for the various parts of the Comprehensive Plan, these classifications are to be a guide in determining the need for, and then the development of, any capital improvement projects that to meet the growth demands of the community. The classification of facilities is as follows: A. Category A Public Facilities are transportation, mass transit, stormwater management, potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parks and schools used for concurrency all of which are addressed in other elements of this Comprehensive Plan. B. Category B Public Facilities are libraries, corrections, courthouse, administration, St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-1 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 320 7.R.2.a mosquito control, and St. Lucie County International Airport as owned, operated or developed by St. Lucie County. Category B Public Facilities are not used for concurrency purposes as provided for in the Concurrency Management System. Category A Public Facilities Transportation: The maintenance or achievement for traffic on county roadways in consideration of growth demand is based upon a peak hour/direction level of service. Due to recent reductions in local ad -valorem tax revenues based upon the passage of the voter approved State Amendment #1 in January 2008 together with reductions in sales tax, it will be more difficult to fund capital projects using local resources. Sufficient funding needed to implement transportation improvements to sustain level of service on the roadway network during the FY 2013/14 — 2017/18 timeframe will be compromised. Reductions in motor fuel tax receipts will also affect the programming of transportation projects. As such, roadway projects have been prioritized in consideration of available funding. The St. Lucie County Transportation Element provides additional details on roadway level of service. The Schedule of Capital Improvements indicates if a project scheduled will affect level of service standards. The capital improvements programmed by the FDOT for implementation by Community Transit Inc. of the Treasure Coast will assist in maintaining or achieving the < 30 minute headway level of service standard for bus operations. Drainage: Fort Pierce Farms Water Control District and North St. Lucie Water Control Districts provide stormwater services for a portion of unincorporated St. Lucie County. The drainage improvement needs as identified and prioritized within the CIE schedule are determined through an analysis of the required storm -water management resources necessary to maintain a 10 year/24 hour storm event within adjacent primary basin and outfall areas. This analysis is consistent with the County's involvement in maintaining National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination System (NPDES) standards administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the State Department of Natural Resources and directly linked to the impacts of land development activity upon the adjacent surface water system. The drainage improvement needs as identified and prioritized within the CIE schedule are determined through an analysis of the required storm -water management resources necessary to maintain a 10 year/24 hour storm event within adjacent primary basin and outfall areas. This analysis is consistent with the County's involvement in maintaining National Pollutant Discharge and Elimination System (NPDES) standards administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the State Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP), which is directly linked to the impacts of land development activity upon the adjacent surface water system. As shown on the project schedule for drainage, the County is emphasizing project funding for capacity improvements on Orange Avenue, Indian River Estates and White City. The capital projects reflected within the schedule will allow the 10 year/24 hour storm event level of service to be maintained in areas where current surface water management practices are in place and achieved in areas where storm water/drainage projects are programmed over the next 5 years. Potable Water. Unincorporated areas of the County are served by St. Lucie County Utilities or the Fort Pierce Utility Authority. The improvement needs for potable water is consistent with the 10-Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan for St. Lucie County in concurrence with the South St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-2 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 321 7.R.2.a Florida Water Management District. The analysis for potable water demand is based upon the need to provide 110 gallons per capita/per day of capacity in consideration of population growth. As shown on the project schedule for potable water, the County is emphasizing project funding for capacity improvements related to the North County service area. Currently, the County is maintaining Level of Service (LOS) for Potable Water facilities. See the St. Lucie Comprehensive Plan, Infrastructure Element. As described further in the Infrastructure Element, St. Lucie County presently provides limited water and wastewater services to three areas of the County. The City of Port St. Lucie and the City of Fort Pierce provide some limited utility services outside of their municipal limits, but for the most part these utilities limit their service areas to properties within their corporate boundaries. Because the County Commission does not provide any direct or indirect funding support to these municipal utility providers, the cost to provide their services to the unincorporated parts of the County are not included in this Capital Improvement Element. Funding for any such expansion is to be borne by the particular utility or individuals seeking to obtain those services. Sanitary Sewer: Unincorporated areas of the County are served by St. Lucie County Utilities or the Fort Pierce Utility Authority. The improvement needs for sanitary sewer considers the 10- Year Water Supply Facilities Work Plan for St. Lucie County. The demand for each project directly correlates to the need to provide 100 gallons per capital/per day of capacity for each Equivalent Residential Connection (ERC). As shown on the project schedule for sanitary sewer, the County is emphasizing project funding for capacity improvements related to the North Hutchinson Island waste water treatment plant. Currently, the County is maintaining Level of Service (LOS) for Sanitary Sewer facilities. See the St. Lucie Comprehensive Plan, Infrastructure Element. The County currently provides sewage collection, treatment and disposal, and potable water services to three limited areas of the County. The City of Port St. Lucie and the City of Fort Pierce provide some limited services outside of their municipal limits, but for the most part these utilities limit their service areas to properties within their corporate boundaries. Should unincorporated areas seek to obtain services from Fort Pierce, they are required to annex into the municipality once their property is contiguous. If unincorporated areas seek service from Port St. Lucie they may pay a surcharge. Those areas served by the County with water and sewer services have been so serviced through the establishment of local special taxing districts for that purpose. No general tax funds have been used to develop, operate or maintain these systems. Future expansion of these systems will be done in a similar manner. Solid Waste: The existing Solid Waste Baling and Recycling Facility has sufficient capacity to meet the 7.9 pounds per capita / per day demand over the next five years. As shown on the project schedule for solid waste, the County is currently constructing a Single Stream Recyclables Processing Facility. The Single Stream Recyclables Processing Facility is projected to increase the County recycling rate in order to reach Florida's recycling goal of 75 percent by 2020. Increasing the County recycling rate should effectively extend the life of the landfill. Currently, the County is maintaining Level of Service (LOS) for Solid Waste facilities. See the St. Lucie Comprehensive Plan, Infrastructure Element. Parks and Recreation: Currently the County is required to provide a minimum level of service standard of 2.5 acres of regional park land area for every 1,000 residents. The analysis needs St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-3 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 322 7.R.2.a to take into consideration the parkland area (in acres) available for both active and passive recreational activities. As such, many of the projects within the County's capital improvements program shown on the project schedule include the expansion of recreation opportunities at existing parks and recreational facilities. Park impact fees are intended primarily to provide adequate capital facilities and equipment for existing regional parks. Many of the projects within the County's capital improvements program include the expansion of recreation opportunities at existing parks and recreational facilities. No projects affecting level of service have been scheduled. Schools. The St. Lucie School District provides for public school facilities in the County. School facility needs -as reflected within the schedule for the 5-year time frame -are consistent with the requirement to provide sufficient classroom and school site facility to maintain and achieve the 100% capacity level of service standard required for all schools, as determined by the Florida Department of Education. The capital projects shown in the schedule will provide the school facility capacity to meet current student enrollment projections for the 5 year window and is consistent with the St. Lucie County School District's 5-Year Work Program. The analysis of needs for school facilities were determined using a 100% capacity for all schools level of service standard required by the Florida Department of Education. This includes an analysis of current student enrollments at each school and a review of total facility classroom space district -wide divided by the number of students that attend schools within the district. Projects are no longer being identified within the schedule; instead the County is adopting the St. Lucie County School District's 5-Year Work Program by reference per Policy 9.1.1.24. Health Care Facilities The St. Lucie County Health Department provides individualized health care services to St. Lucie County residents at affordable rates. These services are provided by highly qualified and experienced family practice doctors, pediatricians, nurse practitioners, nurses, nutritionists, and case managers. They offer a wide range of health care services to the community including clinical services, health issue monitoring, and environmental health issues. The County has no financial oversight of the St. Lucie County Health Department. Category B Facilities Category B Public Facilities are libraries, corrections, courthouse, administration, mosquito control, and St. Lucie County International Airport as owned, operated or developed by St. Lucie County. Category B Public Facilities are not used for concurrency purposes as provided for in the Concurrency Management System. County Library. Two level of service standards are applied to evaluate the Level of Service provided by the library system. The first method is measuring the amount of library space at a Level of Service of 0.525 square feet per capita. The second method is measuring the book volume at a Level of Service of 1.45 books per capita. St. Lucie County's standards are therefore comparable, to other Treasure Coast communities.

Additionally St. Lucie County, in conjunction with Florida Atlantic University and Indian River State College, financially supports a joint -use facility, St. Lucie West Library. All St Lucie County residents have full access to this facility. The joint -use facility currently constitutes 58% (78,348 square feet) of the overall library space available to county residents. The following table shows that the County will be deficient in the Level of Service for the five year and ten year planning periods. In light of this analysis, the County should explore the financial feasibility of completing a library master plan to determine the County's future library needs and to identify appropriate funding sources.

Mosquito Control: The St. Lucie County Mosquito Control District is a dependent taxing district, overseen by its own board and by the Mosquito Control Section of the Florida Bureau of Entomology and Pest Control (Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services). District services also include: reduction of mosquito breeding habitat, control of mosquito larvae where possible, monitoring of mosquitoes and viruses they sometimes carry, measurement and analysis of environmental information, environmental education, and public use of impounded wetland parks. State regulations require the confirmed presence of 25 or more adult mosquitoes in a trap overnight as a justification of adulticide chemical spraying. The Level of Service for Mosquito Control is maintaining state standards for controlling adult mosquitoes when they exceed 25 per night. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-7 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 326 7.R.2.a Airport. The St. Lucie County International Airport (FPR) is located north of Fort Pierce. It is a general aviation airport that serves several flight schools, an airplane manufacturer, and several businesses ancillary to airport and flight operations. It serves charter flights to and from the Bahamas, as well as, flights throughout the continental United States. Federal Express and United Parcel Services have flight operations from here. The Airport Industrial Park, just to the east of the airport, also benefits from the proximity to the airport and its services. The vast 3,660 acre airport property is owned by the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC), and is managed by the County's Airport Department Because of the availability of developable airport property, a strong potential for both aviation and non -aviation related growth exists at the airport. According to the County's draft master plan, the annual service volume (capacity) of the three runway system is 369,192 operations. In 2008, the Airport had 160,277 operations and the forecasted growth in operations by 2028 is 243,599. The Airport will have sufficient capacity for the short and long term planning timeframes. Local Policies and Practices Timing and Location of Capital Improvements. Timing and location of public facilities is determined by needs projected by the various departments of the County, and in the case of multi -jurisdictional facilities such as State roads or potable water, by coordination with the affected agencies. Capital facilities will be planned and constructed in accordance with the established Schedule of Capital Improvements. This program is a five year schedule of improvements which is supported by a projection of revenues to ensure its feasibility. Improvements included in the 5-year program include those items called for by the various departments of the County. The following criteria are applied for determining the need for capital improvements: • Regard for the Urban Service Area and provision facilities in the most efficient and compact manner so as to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl. • Anticipated demand through growth. • Coordination of County plans with those of State agencies and water management districts, school district, and other outside agencies. • Demand for improvements created by facility breakdown or by life expectancy of the facility. • Maintenance of level of service standards. REVENUE AND EXPENSE PROJECTIONS Florida law states that a county must have a balanced budget. Therefore, the budgeted expenditures and reserves of each fund (including reserves for contingencies, cash flow and all other purposes) will equal the sum of projected fund balance at the beginning of the fiscal year and all revenues and receipts which reasonably can be expected to be received during the fiscal year. A summary of the total project expenditures for all of the capital projects identified within this CIE update is represented below. The expenditures are funded through various local, state and federal revenue sources.

[To be updated annually.] Revenue Sources St. Lucie County shall use the following revenue sources in order to meet the demands for projects identified within each facility Element: • ad valorem taxes • impact fees • utility connection fees and user rates • state revenue sharing • one-half cent sales tax • franchise fees • gas taxes (constitutional gas tax, local option gas tax, county gas tax, motor fuel rebate) • state and federal revenues • bond proceeds • MSBU and MSTU State and federal revenue sources for transportation improvements and mass transit include the state transportation trust fund, state TRIP funds, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) highway trust fund, and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) trust funds. Debt Capacity and Obligations One of the ways in which capital needs are provided is through debt. The primary rationale for becoming obligated for such facilities through indebtedness is that it spreads the cost of the facility over its useful life and thus is indeed paid for by those who are there to use it. St. Lucie County has historically used debt for providing capital facilities and it is quite likely to do so in the future. A key factor in determining how debt can be factored into the provision of necessary infrastructure is to examine the County's capacity to handle debt. The County strives to maintain a minimum underlying bond rating equivalent to 'Upper Medium Grade' (Moody Rating Service A or Standard & Poor's A). Moody's and S&P evaluated St. Lucie County's underlying credit worthiness in June of 2005. Moody's rated the County at A2. S&P gave the county a rating of A. Both ratings indicate the County is in the 'Upper Medium Grade' St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-9 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 328 7.R.2.a of investment quality. On March 29, 2007, Standard and Poor's assigned a rating of A+ for the $30,000,000 SLC, FL, Transportation Revenue Bonds, Series 2007. Moody assigned an A2 underlying rating to SLC $30 million Transportation Revenue Bonds, Series 2007. Neither the Florida Constitution, Florida Statues, nor the St. Lucie Board of County Commissioners place limit on the amount of debt the voters may approve by referendum. As of September 30, 2009 the County anticipates $112,738,908 million of general obligation and voted debt outstanding. Based on the assessed valuation of $17 billion for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2009, the County's general obligation and voted debt ratio currently equals 0.66 percent (0.66%). St. Lucie County has established a fund balance policy at 5 percent of operating expenses as recommended by Bond rating agencies. The County Debt Policy also outlines several key indicators designed to keep direct debt at the lowest possible level: Outstanding Indebtedness The County's total outstanding debt as of September 30, 2009 is estimated to be $194.808 million. Approximately 2.44 percent of the total County debt is repaid with property tax revenues ($1.89 million General Obligation ad valorem, and $2.86 million limited ad valorem bonds). The remainder is repaid with pledged revenues, including sales tax, tourist tax and special taxing units. Debt Service The following table provides debt service projections.

St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-10 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 329 7.R.2.a Financial Feasibility St. Lucie County has prepared this CIE annual update as a demonstration of financial feasibility for its adopted five year capital improvements plan and to provide assurance of available revenue through committed and planned sources to implement the schedule of capital improvements. This update is being transmitted to State Department of Community Affairs in accordance with Section 163.3177 (3)(b), F.S., which states that "the expenditures for capital projects do not exceed the amount of revenue programmed or planned for during the 5 year period." Sufficient revenue has been committed in the first three (3) years to provide for the expenditure of project funding during FY 13/14— 15/16. Funding for FY 16/17 — 17/18 includes both committed and planned revenues. Each capital project identified within this CIE shall have a minimum cost of $25,000 as referenced within the adopted and revised Capital Improvements Element (2002). However, most of the capital project costs that add system capacity from new development demand will exceed $50,000 based upon current day costs. A public facilities capital improvement may include design and land acquisition as part of the total project construction cost. For purposes of this CIE, a capital improvement cost shall include infrastructure, facilities and equipment "which are large scale and high in cost... generally nonrecurring and may require multi -year financing" in accordance with Rule 9J-5.003(12), Florida Administrative Code. The adopted County Capital Improvements Program (CIP) and State DOT Work Program representing FY 2013/14 - 2017/18 may contain non -capacity enhancing projects necessary for the continuation of on -going infrastructure priorities. As such, there is not an equivalent total project cost comparison between the CIE, CIP and State DOT Work Program. Committed Years 1-3 - funding under the first three years of the CIE represents the funding that is committed and currently available from specific funding sources and is included as part of the first three years of the St. Lucie County Capital Improvement Program (CIP) or the State's Five Year Work Program. Committed and/or Planned Years 4-5 - funding during years four and five represents both committed (currently available and programmed) funding and/or planned funding (currently not available but will be committed once the specific revenue source has been secured during the 5 years of this CIE update). MONITORING AND EVALUATION The adoption of a Comprehensive Plan requires that procedures be established to evaluate and monitor the intended capital improvements addressed in the Plan. These procedures must be in place and clearly identified. In order to accomplish this, the County will annually review the Capital Improvement Element and other relevant portions of the Plan to assure that the capital needs are being met. The review will also determine if adequate revenues are available to meet the needs. The data regarding the listed improvements will be updated and revised as needed in order to meet current and future capital improvement needs as they relate to the County's adopted Levels of Service. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-11 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 330 7.R.2.a Capital Improvements Element Goals, Objectives and Policies Goal 9.1: To provide public facilities necessary to achieve and maintain adopted level of service standards concurrent with demand through fiscally sound capital improvement programming and budgeting. Objective 9.1.1 - Define types of public facilities, establish standards for Level of Service for each type of public facility, and determine what capital improvements are needed in order to achieve and maintain standards (as well as to repair or replace existing public facilities). Policy 9.1.1.1 - Public facilities means the capital improvements and systems of each of the following: roads, mass transit, stormwater management, potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, parks and recreation, libraries, jails, courthouse facilities, administrative facilities, mosquito control, St. Lucie County International Airport, public education and shall include land, structures, the initial furnishings and equipment, design, permitting, and construction costs. Policy 9.1.1.2 - The County shall establish standards for Levels of Service for four categories of public facilities, as follows: a. Category A Public Facilities are roads, stormwater management, potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, schools, parks and recreation facilities used for concurrency all of which are addressed in other elements of this Comprehensive Plan. b. Category B Public Facilities are libraries, corrections, courthouse, administration, mosquito control, and St. Lucie County International Airport as owned, operated or developed by St. Lucie County. Category B Public Facilities are not used for concurrency purposes as provided for in the Concurrency Management System. Policy 9.1.1.3 - The quantity of public facilities necessary to eliminate existing deficiencies and to meet the needs of future growth shall be determined for every type of public facility by the following calculation: Q=(SxD)-E. Where: Q is the quantity of public facility needed, S is the standard for Level of Service, D is the demand, such as the population, and E is the inventory of existing facilities. The calculation will be used for existing demand in order to determine existing deficiencies. The calculation will be used for projected demand in order to determine needs of future growth. The estimates of projected demand will account for demand that is likely to occur from previously issued development orders as well as future growth. Public facilities to serve demand from previously issued development orders shall be included in "D" (demand) in the preceding calculation. Policy 9.1.1.4 - The public facility formula will be used for current demand in order to determine existing deficiencies. The public facility formula will be used for projected demand in order to determine needs of future growth. The estimates of projected St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-12 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 331 7.R.2.a demand will account for demand that is likely to occur from previously issued development orders as well as future growth. Policy 9.1.1.5 - Demand that is likely to occur from previously issued development orders which require a Certificate of Capacity will be addressed by the County "reserving" capacity of public facilities for development orders that were issued by the County prior to the adoption of this Comprehensive Plan and that are determined to have vested rights for purposes of the concurrency management system. Policy 9.1.1.6 - The County requires persons with legitimate and substantial vested rights to continue development in good faith in order to reserve capacity of public facilities. The County will not reserve capacity of public facilities for previously issued development orders that do not have vested rights for purposes of concurrency management, and/or which do not continue development in good faith. Policy 9.1.1.7 - There are three circumstances in which the standards for Levels of Service are not the exclusive determinant of need for a public facility: a. Calculated needs for public facilities in coastal high hazard areas are subject to all limits and conditions in Coastal Management Element of this Plan (see Policy 9.1.5.1). b. Replacement of obsolete or worn out facilities, and repair, remodeling and renovation, will be determined by the Board of County Commissioners upon the recommendation of the County Administrator. C. Public facilities that provide Levels of Service in excess of the standards adopted in this Plan may be constructed or acquired at any time as long as both conditions 1) and 2) and at least one of the conditions 3) through 5) are met: 1) The facility does not make financially infeasible any public facility of the same type that is needed to achieve or maintain the standards for Levels of Service adopted in this Plan, 2) The facility does not contradict, limit or alter the achievement of the overall goals, objectives and policies of this Plan, 3) The excess capacity is an integral part of a capital improvement that is needed to achieve or maintain standards for Levels of Service, 4) The excess capacity provides economies of scale making it less expensive than a comparable amount of capacity if acquired at a later date, 5) The asset acquired is land that is environmentally sensitive, or designated by the County as necessary for conservation, recreation or protection of high hazard coastal areas. Policy 9.1.1.8 - Capital improvement projects that increase or maintain Category A level of service standards shall be included in the regular Schedule of Capital Improvements contained in this Capital Improvements Element. Policy 9.1.1.9 - The determination of location of improvements to expand public facilities will take into consideration projected growth patterns. Where applicable, public facility improvements will be coordinated with the capital facility plans of any other governmental entity providing public facilities within St. Lucie County. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-13 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 332 7.R.2.a Policy 9.1.1.10 - The following public facility improvements within a facility type are to be considered in the following order of priority, as determined by the Board of County Commissioners: a. Replacement of obsolete or worn-out facilities, including repair, remodeling and renovation of facilities that contribute to achieving and/or maintaining Levels of Service. b. New facilities that reduce or eliminate existing deficiencies in Levels of Service. C. New public facilities, and improvements to existing public facilities, that eliminate public hazards not otherwise eliminated by improvements prioritized according to Subsections A. or B., above. d. New or expanded facilities that provide the adopted Levels of Service for new development and redevelopment during the next five fiscal years, as updated by the annual review of this Capital Improvements Element. St. Lucie County may acquire land or right-of-way in advance of the need to develop a facility for new development. The location of facilities constructed pursuant to this Subsection shall conform to the Future Land Use Element, and specific project locations shall serve projected growth areas within the allowable land use categories. e. Improvements to existing facilities, and new facilities that significantly reduce the operating cost of achieving and/or maintaining Levels of Service. f. New facilities that exceed the adopted Levels of Service for new growth during the next five fiscal years by either: 1) Providing excess public facility capacity that may be needed by future growth beyond the next five fiscal years, or 2) Providing higher quality public facilities than are contemplated in the County's normal design criteria for such facilities. g. Facilities not described in Subsections A. through E., above, but which the County is obligated to complete, provided that such obligation is evidenced by a written agreement the County executed prior to July 31, 1990. h. Project evaluation may also involve additional criteria that are unique to each type of public facility, as described in other elements of this Comprehensive Plan. Policy 9.1.1.11 - When any County arterial or collector road or segment of such a road is determined to be operating one Level of Service below its adopted standard, the County shall exercise one of the following. a. Enter into a contract that will result in the addition of capacity to the facility within six months (or longer if under a Development Agreement) of the determination that the facility is operating below its Level of Service Standard, and delay issuance of development orders until the contract has been executed; b. Enter into an enforceable development agreement that specifies that new development will provide for the upgraded facility; C. Amend the Comprehensive Plan to lower the Level of Service at the next opportunity; or d. Not issue any development permits in the impacted area. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-14 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 333 7.R.2.a The purpose of providing for the temporary operation below the adopted Level of Service is to provide a reasonable period of time to restore the Level of Service through appropriate improvements to roads that are forecast to operate at the adopted Level of Service, but which may unexpectedly operate at a lower Level of Service. All development orders issued pursuant to this Policy shall be conditioned on the attainment of the adopted Level of Service. However, this Policy shall not impair the County's right to refuse to issue a development order pursuant to this Policy if the Board of County Commissioners determines that the resultant lower Level of Service caused by the proposed development order would constitute a threat to public health or safety. Policy 9.1.1.12 - The standards for Levels of Service for Category A Public Facilities shall be as follows: Drainage Level of Service Standards Structure/Facility 10 yr., 24 hr. 10 yr., 72 hr. 100 yr., 72 hr. Houses/Building <FFE' <FFE <FFE Evacuation Routes2 1/2W3 <0.5 ft. <1.0 ft. Arterial Roads4 1/2W <0.5 ft. <1.0 ft. Other RoadS5 <0.5 ft. <0.75 ft. <1.5 ft. 1 Peak flood stages less than first (finished) floor elevation based on available data. 2 Evacuation routes as defined by the County and the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council. 3 Flooding limited to each side of the road such that one-half of the roadway width (W) or one travel lane is not flooded. 4 Roads with four or more travel lanes, or roads that are only access to a respective area/development (secondary evacuation routes). 5 Other roads which are not critical for evacuation, but which will be used to estimate encroachment on FFEs.

Transportation Concurrency Management Areas are geographically compact areas designated in local government comprehensive plans where intensive development exists or is planned in a manner that will ensure an adequate level of mobility and further the achievement of identified important state planning goals and policies, including discouraging the proliferation of urban sprawl, encouraging the revitalization of existing downtowns and designated redevelopment areas protecting natural resources, protecting historic resources, maximizing the efficient use of existing public facilities, and promoting public transit, bicycling, walking and other alternatives to the single occupant automobile. Transportation concurrency management areas may be established in a comprehensive plan in accordance with Rule 9J-5, Florida Administrative Code. 2. Maintain means continuing operating conditions at a level such that significant degradation does not occur based on conditions existing at the time of local government comprehensive plan adoption. For roadways in rural areas, transitioning urbanized areas, urban areas or communities, significant degradation means (1) an increase in average annual daily traffic volume of 5 percent below the speed, of the adopted LOS standard. For roadways in urbanized areas, for 100th highest hour of 5 percent below the speed, of the adopted LOS standard. For roadways in urbanized areas, for roadways parallel to exclusive transit facilities, or for intrastate roadways in transportation concurrency management areas, significant degradation means (1) an increase in average annual daily traffic volume of 10 percent above the maximum service volume, or (2) a reduction in operating speed for the peak directions in the 100th highest hour of 10 percent below the speed, of the adopted LOS standard. For other state roads in transportation concurrency management areas, significant degradation means that amount defined in the transportation mobility element. For constrained roadways meeting or exceeding the level of service standards, (maintain) does not apply until the roadway is operating below the applicable minimum level of service standard. The County wishes to maintain a LOS D or better for all roadways but recognizes that allowing a LOS E 3. allows development to proceed while a minimum of LOS D might cause severe constraints on private development. However, a LOS D will be utilized for these roadways when establishing transportation impact fees.

Policy 9.1.2.1 - The estimated costs of all needed capital improvements shall not exceed conservative estimates of revenues from sources that are available to the County pursuant to or not precluded by current statutes, and which have not been rejected by referendum, if a referendum is required to enact a source of revenue. Policy 9.1.2.2 - The County will allocate the costs of new public facilities on the basis of St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-24 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 ** ** *** Packet Pg. 343 7.R.2.a the benefits received by existing and future residents so that current residents will not subsidize new development. Policy 9.1.2.3 - A. Future development. Future development shall pay for 100 percent of the capital improvements needed to address the impact of such development. Future development's proportion of the cost of capital improvements needed to address the impact of such development shall be determined, in part, by the County's impact fee ordinances and supporting studies, which shall include credits for other payments by future development. Impact fees, enterprise fund user charges, connection fees, and other user fees paid by new development shall be reviewed every two years to assure that provision of capital improvements needed to address the impact of future development will not increase ad valorem tax rates. Upon completion of construction, "future" development becomes "present" development, and shall contribute to paying the costs of the replacement of obsolete or worn out facilities as described in subsection B below. Future development's payments may take the form of, but are not limited to, voluntary contributions for the benefit of any public facility, impact fees, capacity fees, dedications of land, provision of public facilities, and future payments of user fees, special assessments and taxes. Future development shall not pay impact fees for the portion of any capital improvements that reduces or eliminates existing deficiencies. B. Existing development. Existing development shall pay for the capital improvements to facilities that reduce or eliminate existing deficiencies, and some or all of the replacement of obsolete or worn out facilities. Existing development's payments may take the form of user fees, special assessments, and taxes. Policy 9.1.2.4 - Both existing and future development may have part of their costs paid by grants, entitlements or provision of public facilities from other levels of government and independent districts. Policy 9.1.2.5 - Capital improvements may be financed, and debt shall be managed as follows: a. Public facilities financed by County enterprise funds (i.e., automated services, potable water, sanitary sewer and solid waste) shall be financed by: 1) Debt to be repaid by user fees and charges for enterprise services, or 2) Current assets (i.e., reserves, surpluses and current revenue), or 3) A combination of debt and current assets. b. The financing of the capital cost of public facilities with non -enterprise funds (i.e., roads, stormwater management and parks) shall be from current revenue, equity or debt, or a combination of current revenue, equity and debt, whichever may be most cost effective and consistent with prudent asset and liability management, given the useful life of the assets to be financed and efficient use of the County's debt capacity. c. All development orders issued by the County which require public facilities that St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-25 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 344 7.R.2.a will be financed by debt shall be conditioned on the issuance of the debt, or the substitution of a comparable amount of non -debt revenues. Policy 9.1.2.6 - The County shall not provide a public facility, nor shall it accept the provision of a public facility by others, if the County is unable to pay for the subsequent annual operating and maintenance costs of the facility. Policy 9.1.2.7 - In the event that sources of revenue listed in the Schedule of Capital Improvements of this Element require voter approval in a local referendum that has not been held, or a referendum is held and is unsuccessful, this Comprehensive Plan will be amended to include one or more new revenue sources which shall not increase the County's existing debt. Alternatively, this Comprehensive Plan may be amended to adjust for the lack of revenues, in any of the following ways: 1. Increase the use of other sources of revenue. 2. Reduce the standard for levels of service for one or more public facilities. 3. Decrease the cost, and therefore the quality, of some types of public facilities while retaining the quantity of the facilities that is inherent in the standard for Levels of Service. 4. A combination of the above alternatives. Policy 9.1.2.8 - All development orders issued by the County which require Category A public facilities that will be financed by sources of revenue which require voter approval in a local referendum that is yet to be held shall be conditioned on the referendum being approved, or the substitution of other sources of revenue to ensure that facilities are provided concurrent with need. Policy 9.1.2.9 - Recognizing that future funding opportunities may be less than or greater than originally anticipated and that overall the County will operate within a constrained financial setting, the first priority for allocation of monies for capital purposes is for the maintenance of the County's present facilities so as to ensure proper protection of the investments in such facilities. Policy 9.1.2.10 - The County shall prudently limit the amount of debt it assumes for capital improvements or other purposes. At a minimum, the County shall not assume debt obligations which would result in the County exceeding the debt ratios established by state law. Objective 9.1.3: Within the County's financial capability, provide needed capital improvements for repair or replacement of obsolete or worn out facilities, eliminating existing deficiencies, and meeting the needs of future development and redevelopment caused by previously issued and new development orders. Policy 9.1.3.1 - The County shall provide, or arrange for others to provide, the public facilities listed in the Schedule of Capital Improvements of this Capital Improvements Element. Policy 9.1.3.2 - Pursuant to Section 163.3187, Florida Statutes, the Schedule of Capital Improvements may be amended two times during any calendar year, and as allowed for emergencies, developments of regional impact, and certain small scale development activities. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-26 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 345 7.R.2.a Policy 9.1.3.3 - Pursuant to Section 163.3177, Florida Statutes, the Schedule of Capital Improvements may be adjusted by ordinance not deemed to be an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan for corrections, updates, and modifications concerning costs; revenue sources; acceptance of facilities pursuant to dedications which are consistent with the plan; or the date of construction of any facility enumerated in the Schedule of Capital Improvements. Policy 9.1.3.4 - The County shall adopt a capital budget as part of the annual budgeting process that includes all the capital improvements projects listed in the Schedule of Capital Improvements for expenditure during the appropriate fiscal year, except that the County may omit from its annual budget any capital improvements for which a binding agreement has been executed with another party to provide the same project in the same fiscal year. Policy 9.1.3.5 - The County shall utilize the following implementation schedule to aid state requirements for annual updates and to ensure level of service standards are maintained: • Preliminary meetings discussion of capital improvement need during Strategic Planning Committee meeting in November. • Prepare capital improvement plan in coordination with County budget for approval in April. • Capital improvement plan/budget workshop in July with the Board of County Commissioners for discussion of proposed projects and financing • Public hearing on capital improvement plan/budget in September. • Revise Schedule of Capital Improvements and update Capital Improvement Element in October. Objective 9.1.4: Coordinate land use decisions and available or projected fiscal resources with a schedule of capital improvements that maintains adopted Level of Service Standards and meets existing and future facility needs. Policy 9.1.4.1 - All Category A public facility capital improvements shall be consistent with the goals, objectives and policies of the appropriate elements of this Comprehensive Plan. Policy 9.1.4.2 - The County shall integrate its land use planning and decisions with its plans for public facility capital improvements by using the policies listed in this section of the Capital Improvements Element. The location of, and Level of Service provided by projects in the Schedule of Capital Improvements shall maintain adopted standards for Levels of Service for existing and future development in a manner and location consistent with the Future Land Use Element of this Comprehensive Plan. Individual land use decisions shall be consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and the ability of the County to provide and maintain Level of Service. Policy 9.1.4.3 - The County shall continue to implement its Land Development Code for adequate public facilities to provide for a system of review of various applications for development orders which applications, if granted, would impact the Levels of Service of Category A and issue Certificates of Capacity. Such system of review shall assure that no final development order shall be issued which results in a reduction in the Levels of Service. The Land Development Code shall address the following, at a minimum, in determining whether a development order can be issued. St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-27 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 346 7.R.2.a A. No final development order shall be issued by the County unless there shall be sufficient capacity of Category A public facilities to meet the standards for Levels of Service for the existing and committed development and for the proposed development according to the following deadlines: 1) Prior to the issuance of a building permit for the following public facilities: (a) Potable water. (b) Sanitary sewer. (c) Solid waste. 2) Prior to the issuance of the building permit, assurance as to the completion for the following public facilities within the next twelve months must be provided: (a) Arterial and collector roads. (b) Storm water management. B. The capacity of Category A public facilities shall be determined for preliminary development orders according to one of the following: 1) The applicant may request a determination of such capacity as part of the review and approval of the preliminary development order provided that: (a) The determination that such capacity is available shall apply only to specific uses, densities, and intensities based on information provided by the applicant, and included in the development order, and (b) The determination that such capacity is available shall be valid for development that is completed within a period: (1) Not to exceed two years, or (2) Any period of time acceptable to the County and the applicant, provided that the period of time is explicitly set forth in a binding development agreement as authorized by Florida Statutes, and the applicant provides one or more of the following assurances, acceptable to the County in form and amount, to guarantee the applicant's pro rata share of the County's financial obligation for public facilities which are constructed by the County for the benefit of the subject property: [a] Performance bond, [b] Irrevocable letter of credit, [c] Prepayment of impact fees, [d] Prepayment of capacity (i.e., prepayment of capacity connection charges), or [e] Formation of a Community Development District pursuant to Chapter 190, Florida Statutes. (c) Whenever an applicant's pro rata share of a public facility is less than the full cost of the facility, the County shall do one of the following: (1) Contract with the applicant for the full cost of the facility, including terms regarding reimbursement of the applicant for costs in excess of the applicant's pro rata share, or (2) Obtain assurances similar to those in subsection (b)[2] from other sources, or (3) Amend this Comprehensive Plan to modify the adopted St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-28 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 347 7.R.2.a standard for the Level of Service so as to reduce the required facility to equal the applicant's needs. (d) Pursuant to (a) and (b), above, no further determination of capacity for the subject property shall be required prior to the expiration of the determination of capacity for the preliminary development order, except that any change in the density, intensity or land use that requires additional public facilities or capacity is subject to review and approval or denial by the County. The determination of capacity for the preliminary development order shall be considered a reservation of capacity until the end of the time periods specified in Policy 9.1.4.3.(B)(1)(b) above, or until the County is notified in writing by the applicant that the project will not be undertaken during those time periods and that the applicant voluntarily yields the reserved capacity. Public facility capacity that is determined to be available pursuant to this subsection shall be reserved on behalf of the preliminary development order in such a manner as to prevent the overuse or over commitment of the same public facility capacity. 1) Notwithstanding the procedures outlined in Policy 9.1.4.3.(B)(1), all approvals at the preliminary development order stage shall include a condition that the final development order containing a specific plan for development, including the densities and intensities of development, will not be issued unless public services and facilities exist or are assured to be available to meet or exceed the Level of Service Standards concurrent with the impacts of development. 2) The applicant may elect to request approval of a preliminary development order without a determination of capacity of Category A public facilities provided that any such order is issued subject to requirements in the applicable land development regulation or to specific conditions contained in the preliminary development order that: (e) Final development orders for the subject property are subject to a determination of capacity of Category A public facilities, (f) No rights to obtain final development orders, nor any other rights to develop the subject property have been granted or implied by the County's approval of the preliminary development order without determining the capacity of public facilities. (g) Applicants for development orders may offer to provide public facilities at the applicant's own expense in order to ensure sufficient capacity of Category A public facilities, as determined according to Paragraphs a and b, above. Development orders may be issued subject to the provision of public facilities by the applicant subject to both of the following requirements: (1) The County and the applicant enter into an enforceable development agreement which shall provide, at a minimum, a schedule for construction of the public facilities and mechanisms for monitoring to insure that the public facilities are completed concurrent with the impacts of the development, or the development will not be allowed to proceed. (2) The public facilities are contained in the Schedule of Capital St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-29 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 348 7.R.2.a Improvements of the Comprehensive Plan. (h) If public facilities are provided at an applicant's own expense, as allowed in subparagraph (c) above, the facility shall not be provided later than the fiscal year for which that facility was programmed in the Schedule of Capital Improvements. Policy 9.1.4.4 - A preliminary development order is defined as a DRI Development approval, zoning approval, preliminary plat approval, preliminary development plan approval, Plan amendment approval, preliminary Planned Unit Development approval, or any other development order other than a final development order and for which there are not found to be any impacts of development. Policy 9.1.4.5 - The impacts of development on public facilities within St. Lucie County are found to occur at the same time as development authorized by a final development order. The Board defines final development order as a building permit, conditional use approval, Board of Adjustment approval, or any other development order which has an immediate and continuing impact upon the infrastructure. The County shall determine, prior to the issuance of final development orders, whether or not there is sufficient capacity of Category A public facilities to meet the standards for Levels of Service for existing population and the proposed development concurrent with the proposed development. Policy 9.1.4.6 - The Land Development Code of the County shall provide that applications for development orders that are denied because of insufficient capacity of public facilities may be resubmitted after a time period to be specified in the Land Development Code. Such time period is in lieu of, and not in addition to, other minimum waiting periods imposed on applications for development orders that are denied for reasons other than lack of capacity of public facilities. Land Development Code shall require that development commence within a specified time after a development order is issued, or the development order shall expire, subject to reasonable extensions of time based on criteria included in the regulations. The Land Development Code also shall provide for the County to reserve capacity for approved final development orders for a specified period of time. Policy 9.1.4.7 - Impact fee ordinances shall require the same standard for the Level of Service as is required by the Comprehensive Plan. Policy 9.1.4.8 - The annual budget shall include in its capital appropriations all projects in the Schedule of Capital Improvements that are planned for expenditure during the next fiscal year. Policy 9.1.4.9 - The County's annual multiyear Capital Improvement Program (CIP) shall be prepared in conjunction with the annual review and update of the Capital Improvements Element. The CIP shall contain all of the projects listed in the updated Schedule of Capital Improvements. Policy 9.1.4.10 - The Capital Improvements Element shall be reviewed and updated annually. Beginning in April of each year, the element shall be updated in conjunction with the County's budget process and the release of the official population estimates and projections by the Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) of the University of Florida. The update shall include: St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-30 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 349 7.R.2.a A. Revision of population projections to reflect both the official projections from B.E.B.R. and formally adopted local estimates prepared by the Planning and Development Services Department, B. Update of inventory of public facilities, C. Update of costs of public facilities, D. Update of Public Facilities Requirements analysis (actual Levels of Service compared to adopted standards), E. Update of revenue forecasts, F. Revision and development of capital improvement projects for the next five fiscal years, G. Update of analysis of financial capacity, and H. Update of analysis of any pending public education facility impacts on infrastructure. Policy 9.1.4.11 - The County shall establish and maintain a Concurrency Implementation and Monitoring System. The System shall consist of the following components: A. Annual report on the capacity and Levels of Service of public facilities. This report will function as a public information source to summarize the actual capacity of public facilities, and forecast the capacity of public facilities for each of the five succeeding fiscal years. The report shall be prepared in conjunction with the updated Schedule of Capital Improvements. The annual report shall also summarize and forecast capacities and Levels of Service for comparison to the standards adopted in the Capital Improvement Element, but such portion of the annual report shall be for information purposes only and shall not pertain to the issuance of development orders by the County. B. Public Facility Capacity Review. A separate record shall be maintained during each fiscal year to indicate the cumulative impacts of all development orders approved during the fiscal year-to-date on the capacity of public facilities as set forth in the most recent annual report on capacity and Levels of Service of public facilities. C. Concurrency Implementation Strategies. The County shall annually review the concurrency implementation policies that are incorporated in this Capital Improvements Element: (1) Standards for Levels of Service are phased to specific fiscal years in order to provide clear, unambiguous standards for issuance of development orders. (2) Standards for Levels of Service are applied within appropriate geographical areas of the County. Standards for County -wide public facilities are applied to development orders based on Levels of Service throughout the County. Standards for public facilities that serve less than the entire County are applied to development orders on the basis of Levels of Service within assigned service areas. (3) Standards for Levels of Service are applied according to the timing of the impacts of development on public facilities. Final development orders, which impact public facilities in a matter of months, are issued subject to the availability of water, sewer, and solid waste facilities prior to the issuance of the building permit, and other public facilities (i.e., roads, parks, and drainage) must be available within twelve months of the issuance of the building permit. Preliminary development orders can be St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan 9-31 Capital Improvements Element December 2013 Packet Pg. 350 7.R.2.a issued subject to public facility capacity, but the capacity determination expires in two years. As an alternative, the determination of public facility capacity for preliminary development orders can be waived with an agreement that a capacity determination must be made prior to issuance of any final development order for the subject property. Such a waiver specifically precludes the acquisition of rights to a final development order as a result of the issuance of the preliminary development order. (4) Levels of Service are compared to adopted standards on an annual basis. Annual monitoring is used, rather than case -by -case monitoring, for the following reasons: a) annual monitoring corresponds to annual expenditures for capital improvements during the County's fiscal year; b) annual monitoring covers seasonal variations in Levels of Service; and c) case -by -case monitoring would require applicants for development orders or the County to conduct costly, time-consuming research which would often be partially redundant of prior research, or involve disparate methodologies and produce inconsistent results. (5) Public facility capital improvements are prioritized among competing applications for the same amount of facility capacity according to the criteria in the Capital Improvements Element. If any applications have to be deferred to a future fiscal year because of insufficient capacity of public facilities during the current fiscal year, the applications to be deferred will be selected on the basis of rational criteria as determined by the Board of County Commissioners. Policy 9.1.4.12 — The County shall consider the financial feasibility of implementing a concurrency and capacity database by 2012. COASTAL HIGH HAZARD AREAS Objective 9.1.5: The County shall protect the coastline and avoid loss of life and property in coastal areas by minimizing land development and public facilities in coastal high hazard areas. Policy 9.1.5.1 - Publicly funded infrastructure shall not be constructed within the Coastal High Hazard Area unless the expenditure is for: A. Restoration or enhancement of natural resources or public access; B. Land application of treated effluent disposal (irrigation) on public and private open spaces; C. Flood -proofing water and sanitary sewage facilities; D. The development or improvement of a facility which will serve a crucial need by ameliorating the evacuation time of residents of the County; E. Reconstruction of seawalls that are essential to the protection of existing public facilities or infrastructure; F. The retrofitting of stormwater management facilities for water quality enhancement of stormwater runoff; or G. Port facilities.

According to the County's Land Development Code the pool is considered unsafe without an enclosure or a fence. Pursuant to Section 8.00.05(A) - Fencing Requirements for a Swimming Pool of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, a waiver can be granted by the Board of County Commissioners if it is determined that by reason of its location, construction, surrounding vegetation or other natural or man-made barriers, and there is not a hazard to small children. Therefore, the petitioner submitted a request waive this Code requirement and allow the swimming pool to exist without the fence across the rear of the property because the canal acts as a natural barrier to the pool. LOCATION: 122 Queen Guinevere Court Queens Cove Subdivision, Fort Pierce, FL 34949 PARCEL ID: 1414-701-0015-000/4 ZONING DISTRICT: RS-4 (Residential, Single -Family - 4 du/ac) FUTURE LAND USE: RU (Residential, Urban) PARCEL SIZE: 0.44 ac Packet Pg. 362 ADJACENT LAND USE, ZONING AND USES: Direction Future Land Use Zoning Existing Use(s) North RU, Residential Urban - RS-4 , Residential Single Family - 4 Vacant 5 du/acre du/acre South CPUB, Conservation CPUB, Conservation Public Indian River Lagoon Public East RU, Residential Urban - RS-4 , Residential Single Family - 4 Canal 5 du/acre du/acre West RU, Residential Urban - RS-4 , Residential Single Family - 4 Vacant 5 du/acre du/acre /11►/_1W6114 I The subject property is located in the Queens Cove Subdivision on North Hutchinson Island, at 122 Queen Guinevere Court. The property abuts a man-made canal along the east property line and the Indian River Lagoon along the south property line. There is an existing five (5) foot high wood fence along the west and north property line preventing any access to the pool backyard area from the street. The property does not have the required minimum four (4) foot high fence along the east and south property line. Land Development Code, Section 8.00.05(A) requires all in -ground swimming pools in the unincorporated areas of the County, unless entirely screened in, to be completely enclosed with a fence or wall at least four (4) feet high and constructed in such a manner that it cannot be easily climbed by small children. Al I gates or doors providing access to the pool area are to be securely locked when the pool area is not in use or must be equipped with a self -closing, self -latching device, installed on the pool side, for keeping the gates or doors securely closed at all times when the pool area is not in actual use. During the construction of a swimming pool, the contractor is required to take reasonable steps to secure the construction site so that the swimming pool under construction is not readily accessible to small children. Staff has reviewed this petition and finds that it conforms to the standards of review for granting the waiver as established in the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, Section 8.00.05(A) and is not in conflict with the goals, objectives, and policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The requested waiver arises from the unique condition of the sea wall and canal acting as an access barrier to the pool. 1111/ 161MLIMIT4 111 191►; N/A FINANCIAL IMPACT: N/A Recommendation: Board adoption of a Resolution granting approval of the fence waiver from Land Development Code, Section 8.00.05(A) - Fencing Requirements for a Swimming Pool.

All swimming pools in the unincorporated areas of the County, unless entirely screened in, shall be completely enclosed with a fence or wall at least four (4) feet high and so constructed as to be not readily climbable by small children. All gates or doors providing access to the pool area shall be securely locked when the pool area is not in actual use or shall be equipped with a self -closing and self -latching device installed on the pool side for keeping the gates or doors securely closed at all times when the pool area is not in actual use, except that the door of any dwelling which forms a part of the enclosure need not be so locked or equipped. During construction of a swimming pool, the swimming pool contractor shall be required to take reasonable steps to secure the construction site so that the swimming pool under construction is not readily accessible to small children. B. Procedures for Waiver from Fencing Requirement. In the event the owner of an existing or proposed swimming pool feels that such pool is not or would not be a hazard to small children, he may petition the Board of County Commissioners for a waiver of the requirement of Section 8.00.05.A for fencing. If the Board of County Commissioners determines that such a swimming pool is not or would not be a hazard to small children by reason of its location, construction, surrounding vegetation or other natural or man-made barriers, the Board may, after a public hearing of which all property owners within five hundred (500) feet are given at least ten (10) days notice by certified mail, waive the requirement that such pool be fenced. In lieu of a total waiver of the fence requirement, the Board may attach reasonable conditions including a partial reduction in the height requirement. httpJlIibrary.municode.coni/print.asnx?h=&clientID=14641&HTMReauest=htti)%3a%2f%...

JAME_S E HA_TFIELD Property Owner Name (printed) Signature A P1z 1'�� ------�vDate�� Packet Pg. 394 8.A.c Supplement 9 B. Justification a. Pool enclosures cost between $6,000 - $10,000, they are not esthetically pleasing, and they obstruct the view which was one of the selling points (along with the existing swimming pool) when I purchased the property. b. There is no way a small child could access the pool without climbing a 5' fence on either side of the property or by climbing a 5' seawall (at high tide). Also, all doors leading from the house to the backyard are locked with a security code/key lock. Per the municode swimming pool regulation section 8.00.05 it states that "all swimming pools shall be completely enclosed with a fence or wall at least four (4) feet high and so constructed as to be not readily climbable by small children. Alf gates and doors providing access to the pool area shall be securely locked when the pool area is not in actual use or shall be equipped with a self -closing and self -latching device installed on the pool side for keeping the gates or doors securely closed at all times when the pool area is not in actual use, except that the door of any dwelling which forms a part of the enclosure need not be so locked or equipped." C. There are no small children living on the property, nor do I intend on having small children reside with me in the future. I am at the cul-de-sac end of my street and the only other house on the street has no children. d. The approval of this waiver will not nullify the intent of the regulations. My intent is the same as the County's which is to not allow any small children to be injured in my pool area. I have gone above and beyond the regulation requirements to provide the safety of small children and others. 1 am a very responsible adult and I would never expose a child or anyone else to harm.

(B) In addition to its powers of self-government, the Board is authorized by section 125.01(1)(r), Florida Statutes, to impose Solid Waste Service Assessments in all or a portion of the unincorporated area. Additionally, the Board derives authority to impose 7 Packet Pg. 407 9.A.a Solid Waste Service Assessments from the home rule power of counties in Article VIII, section 1(f), Florida Constitution, section 125.01, Florida Statutes, and specifically section 125.01(1)(r), Florida Statutes. (C) This Resolution authorizes the imposition of Solid Waste Service Assessments within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area. (D) It is fair and reasonable to use the Improvement Codes and DOR Codes to apportion the Solid Waste Cost among parcels of Assessed Property located within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area because; (1) the Tax Roll database employing the use of such property use codes is the most comprehensive, accurate, and reliable information readily available to determine the property use and number of Dwelling Units for Improved Property within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area, and (2) the Tax Roll database is maintained by the Property Appraiser and is consistent with the coding of parcel designations on the Tax Roll which compatibility permits the development of an Assessment Roll in conformity with the requirements of the Uniform Assessment Collection Act. (E) Pursuant to section 403.706(1), Florida Statutes, the County has the general responsibility and authority to provide for the collection and transport of Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials generated within its unincorporated area to appropriate Solid Waste Disposal Facilities. (F) The existence of any Building or other improvement on Improved Property results in such property generating Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials or being capable of generating Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials. (6) Whether imposed throughout the entire County or a portion thereof, the imposition of a recurring annual Solid Waste Service Assessment is an alternative, equitable and efficient method to fairly and reasonably apportion and recover the Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal costs experienced by the County among the parcels of Residential Property within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area. (H) The size or value of Residential Property does not determine the scope and cost of Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services to be provided to such property. The use of Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities, and programs are driven by the existence of a Dwelling Unit and the average occupant population. Packet Pg. 408 9.A.a (I) Apportioning the Solid Waste Costs for Residential Waste collection and disposal services provided to Residential Property within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area on a per Dwelling Unit basis is compatible with the use of the Tax Roll data base, is required to avoid cost inefficiency and unnecessary administration, and is a fair and reasonable method of apportioning Solid Waste Costs. (J) The use of the uniform method of collection authorized in the Uniform Assessment Collection Act provides a mechanism to equitably and efficiently collect Solid Waste Service Assessments for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal service, facilities, and programs allocable to specific parcels of Assessed Property within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area. (K) The annual Solid Waste Service Assessment to be imposed pursuant to this Resolution shall constitute non -ad valorem assessments within the meaning and intent of the Uniform Assessment Collection Act. (L) The Solid Waste Service Assessment imposed pursuant to this Resolution is imposed by the Board, not the Property Appraiser or Tax Collector. Any activity of the Property Appraiser or Tax Collector under the provision of the Uniform Assessment Collection Act and the Interlocal Agreement with the Property Appraiser shall be construed as ministerial. (M) Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities, and programs furnished by the County provide a special benefit and possess a logical relationship to the use and enjoyment of Residential Property by providing: (1) Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities, and programs to the Owners and occupants of Residential Property for proper, safe, and cost effective disposal of Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials generated on such property, (2) better service to Owners and tenants, (3) the enhancement of environmentally responsible use and enjoyment of Residential Property, and (4) the protection and possible enhancement of property values and the health and safety of the Owners and occupants of Residential Property resulting from the uniform delivery and availability of such services, facilities, and programs. (N) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that each parcel of Assessed Property will be benefitted by the County's provision of Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities and programs in an amount not less than the Solid Waste Service Assessment upon such parcel computed in the manner set forth in this Preliminary Assessment Resolution. 0 Packet Pg. 409 9.A.a SECTION 4. SOLID WASTE COLLECTION AND DISPOSAL SERVICES. (A) Upon the imposition of Solid Waste Service Assessments for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal against Assessed Property located within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area, the County shall cause Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services to be provided to such Assessed Property. Solid Waste Costs shall be paid from proceeds of the Solid Waste Service Assessments. (B) The provision of comprehensive Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services and programs furnished by or through the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area to Residential Property enhances and strengthens the relationship of such services and programs to the use and enjoyment of Residential Property within the County Solid Waste Urban Service Area.

(A) The Solid Waste Cost to be assessed and apportioned among benefitted parcels for the Fiscal Year commencing October 1, 2014, is approximately $4,900,298.46.

(B) For the Fiscal Year in which Solid Waste Service Assessments for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities and programs are imposed, the Solid Waste Cost shall be allocated among all parcels of Assessed Property, based upon each parcels' classification as Residential Property and the number of Dwelling Units for such parcels. A rate of assessment equal to $252.06 for each Dwelling Unit for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services is hereby approved for the Fiscal Year commencing on October 1, 2014. In addition to the Solid Waste Service Assessments for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials for the Fiscal Year, the Solid Waste Cost due from any property for prior Fiscal Years which is delinquent shall be assessed against such Residential Property.

A separate Assessment Roll containing the above information shall also be prepared for any Residential Property that is delinquent in payments of the Solid Waste Cost for prior Fiscal Years. (B) It is hereby ascertained, determined, and declared that the foregoing method of determining the Solid Waste Service Assessments for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services (1) is a fair and reasonable method of apportioning the Solid Waste Cost among parcels of Assessed Property and (2) is an equitable and efficient mechanism to address payment delinquencies and recover funds advanced for Residential Waste and Recyclable Materials management, collection, and disposal services, facilities, and programs which are allocable to specific parcels of Assessed Property.

(ID # 2216) TO: PRESENTED BY: SUBMITTED BY: ci miprT- BACKGROUND: AGENDA REQUEST Board of County Commissioners DATE: 07/15/2014 *REGULAR AGENDA\OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT & BUDGET Marie Gouin, Office of Management & Budget Director Budget Division Setting of FY 2015 Proposed Millage Rates and Dates for Budget Public Hearings The County is required to advise the Property Appraiser of the proposed millage rates; the rolled -back rates; and the date, time and place the tentative budget hearing will take place. This must be done within 35 days of the Property Appraiser's certification of taxable value in accordance with Florida Statute 200.065. The Property Appraiser utilizes this information in preparing the notice of proposed property taxes (TRIM notice) which are mailed to each property owner in August. The TRIM notice is intended to inform property owners of the maximum millage rate and taxes for each taxing district. After the proposed millage rates are set, any of the millage rates may be further reduced any time before the final budget hearing on September 18t". However, none of the millage rates may be increased. The "Worksheet Analysis of Roll -Back Millage Rate for fiscal year 2014-2015" reflects the fiscal year 2014- 2015 proposed and roll -back millage rates. The recommended rates are consistent with the rates as proposed at the budget workshops held by the Board on July 7 and July 8, 2014, and as required to meet special district, debt service, and related millage requirements. The proposed millage rate for the Mosquito Control Fund will be decreased by 0.1543 mills, offset by an increase in the General Fund by 0.1543 mills. The General Fund millage increase will reduce the County's reliance on reserves by approximately $2.3 million (i.e. fund balance) to bridge the operating budget shortfall. In addition, the proposed millage rate for the Fine & Forfeiture Fund will be decreased by 0.7 mills with a corresponding increase in the General Fund by 0.7 mills. This millage shift will not alter the total millage rate or the amount of property taxes being levied. However, the millage shift will provide additional revenue to the General Fund, which currently has a greater operating budget shortfall than the Fine and Forfeiture Fund. The millage shift will also prevent reserves from being depleted in the General Fund in Packet Pg. 422 future years if the millage shift is not made. PREVIOUS ACTION: Budget workshops were held with the Board on July 7 and July 8, 2014. FINANCIAL IMPACT: N/A RECOMMENDATION: Recommendation: Board approval to set millage rates in order to comply with Truth in Millage (TRIM) requirements: o Advise the Property Appraiser's Office of the millage rates as outlined on "Worksheet Analysis of Roll -Back Millage Rate for fiscal year 2014-2015" under the column headed "2014-2015 proposed millage." o Set two public hearings on September 4t" and 18t" 2014, at 6:00 P.M. in the Roger Poitras Administration Annex Commission Chamber. o Authorize the County Administrator to be able to modify the millage rates between General Fund and Fine and Forfeiture Fund as long as the total countywide millage stays the same. o Set the proposed aggregate millage as outlined on "Worksheet Analysis of Roll - Back Millage rate for fiscal year 2014-2015" under the column headed "2014- 2015 proposed millage".
