The parcel is located on the northeast corner of Airoso Blvd and NE Solida Drive at 117 NE Airoso Blvd, Port St. Lucie, FL. The Future Land Use designation for the parcel is RU (Residential, Urban). The property is situated inside of the Urban Service Boundary (USB).

The rezone petition is consistent with the parcel’s RU (Residential, Urban) Future Land Use designation and maintains the character of surrounding properties. Aerial Page 14 of 349 Petition: Family Church Property File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 3 Proposed Rezoning I (Institutional) Future Land Use: The Future Land Use designation of the subject property is Residential Urban (RU). Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2.E. describes the Residential Urban (RU) future land use category as follows: “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 (5) 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 unit development process. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code.” Current Zoning: The current zoning of the subject property is RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family - 4).The St. Lucie County Land development Code (LDC), Section 3.01.03.J. provides as follows: “The purpose of this district is to provide and protect an environment suitable for single-family dwellings at a maximum density of four (4) dwelling units per gross acre, together with such other uses as may be necessary for and compatible with low density residential surroundings.” Subject Property Prima Vista Blvd. A i r o s o B l v d . Page 15 of 349 Petition: Family Church Property File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 4 Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning of the subject property is I (Institutional). LDC Section 3.01.03.X. provides as follows: “The purpose of this district is to provide and protect and environment suitable for institutional, public, and quasi-public uses, together with such other uses as may be compatible with institutional, public, and quasi- public surroundings.” ********************************************** STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 11.06.03 In reviewing this application for an amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas, the Board of County Commissioners and the Planning and Zoning Commission shall consider and make the following determinations: A. Whether the proposed rezoning is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code; The proposed rezoning to the I (Institutional) Zoning District is consistent with the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and meets the Standards of Review set forth in LDC Section 11.06.03, as displayed in Sections A thru J of this report.

The applicant/property owner shall combine both properties prior to final authorization by the Board of County Commissioners, to meet the lot size requirements. The proposed Institutional (I) Zoning District is consistent with Residential Urban (RU) Future Land Use, providing the use scope in LDC Section 3.01.03.X and District purpose. B.

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 manmade 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. Policy 1.1.6.3 – St. Lucie County shall ensure that all development and redevelopment taking place within the unincorporated area of the County does not result in a reduction of the level-of-service requirements established and adopted by this comprehensive plan. Facilities for potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, drainage and transportation facilities shall be in place and available to serve new development no later than the issuance of the certificate of occupancy or its functional equivalent. If facility improvements are needed to ensure that the adopted level-of-service standards are achieved and maintained, prior to commencement of construction, a developer is required to enter into St. Lucie County 1-13 Adopted 4.2.2019 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element GOPs a binding and legally enforceable commitment with the County to assure construction or improvement of the facility. Objective 1.1.9: Residential Areas. Property owners' investments, their quality of life and the single- family neighborhood, as a defined residential area, shall be protected from the encroachment of commercial and/or other inappropriate land uses through consistent and predictable application of the Land Development Code. Policy 1.1.9.4 - Limited development of commercial/non-residential uses, that are not located within a special area plan adopted within the Towns, Villages and Countryside Element, will be allowed within areas classified for residential use, provided that these activities are compatible with the adjacent land uses and meet the following standards: b) Conversion of the petitioned property would not promote any strip commercial use of land; c) Use is compatible with surrounding land uses and is provided with adequate screening and buffering of any adjacent residential property; C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed zoning is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; The proposed rezoning from RS-4 (Residential Single Family) to the I (Institutional) Zoning District is consistent with the existing and proposed land uses. As stated above, the I (Institutional) Zoning District is compatible with the RU (Residential, Urban) Future Land Use designation. This amendment will not create a conflict with the surrounding zoning districts.

Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment; The applicant acquired the property in 2021, and secured a building permit in 2022 to demolish the single- family home on the property. The applicant intends to combine the petition site with the abutting church campus to erect a monument sign along Airoso Blvd. to increase the visibility of the church, consistent with LDC Section 9.01.01, permitted permanent signs. The church campus, to the east, is zoned Institutional (I). This rezone petition would support the additional land area of the church. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities; The proposed change in zoning should not affect the acceptable level of service capacity of transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, or emergency medical facilities. Site-specific impacts will be addressed through permitting or a development application. Prior to the issuance of any Final Development Order, the developer must demonstrate that all public facilities are available to serve the parcel and obtain a Certificate of Capacity. The applicant has signed the required Concurrency Deferral Affidavit recognizing this provision. Water/Wastewater The subject property is located within the Port St. Lucie Utilities service area, with central water and wastewater services available to the petition site. Utility service connections will be reviewed through the site plan review. Transportation Impacts The property is located on the northeast corner of NE corner of Airoso Blvd and NE Solida Drive. The rezone petition is not anticipated to cause adverse traffic impacts for the surrounding area. The proposed monument sign will not cause an increase in traffic. The County’s Public Works Department has identified that a future Zoning Compliance Certificate for the property shall require the removal of the residential driveway connection to Airoso Blvd. The subject property cannot be used by the adjacent religious facility for parking or access without separate review and site plan approval of such. Adequacy of Fire Protection The rezoning petition is not anticipated to impose adverse impacts to the St. Lucie County Fire District’s service capacity. The closest Fire Station (Station #3) is located at 480 SW Ravenswood Ln, Port St. Lucie, Page 18 of 349 Petition: Family Church Property File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 7 FL 34983 (Approximately 0.8 miles southwest of the subject site). Any site plan or building permit(s) (except for a sign) shall require the Fire District’s review. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment; The County’s Environmental Resources Department concluded that the proposed rezoning is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts as no development activities, aside from a monument sign, are proposed at this time. G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would adversely affect the property values in the area; The proposed change in zoning will not adversely affect the property values in the area. The proposed zoning is consistent with the Future Land Use designation of RU (Residential, Urban) and the adjacent lot to the east. The rezoning would permit the church to unite the two (2) parcels into one (1) and erect a sign to increase the visibility of the church. The current zoning of RS-4 does not allow the church to erect a monument ground sign. A Zoning Compliance Certificate associated with reuse of the property, for an auxiliary sign for the existing church, may require compliance with LDC Section 7.09.04 E., including the provision of Landscaped Buffer Areas Between Non-Residential … and Single-Family … Residential Uses. Such buffering will minimize any adverse effects on adjacent properties. H. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative affects of such patterns; The proposed change in zoning will result in an orderly and logical development pattern. The parcel is located inside the Urban Service Boundary, adjacent (east) to a parcel with an Institutional zoning designation. The requested rezone is not expected to harm other properties or improvements in the area. This rezone petition will support the church to expand its footprint and erect a monument ground sign. New structures in the Institutional (I) Zoning District, including a ground sign, shall comply with LDC Section 7.10.24 – Community Architectural Standards. I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this Code; The proposed rezoning to the Institutional (I) Zoning District is not in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the Land Development Code. Because the subject property does not meet the minimum lot area requirements for the Institutional (I) Zoning District, the applicant is required to unite the two (2) parcels into one (1). J. Any other matters that may be deemed appropriate by the Planning and Zoning Commission or the Board of County Commissioners, in review and consideration of the proposed amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commission or the Board of County Commissioners may raise other matters regarding the proposed amendment.

There are no development plans for this Property currently. Pending approval of the rezoning request, the applicant would like to construct signage on the Property and unify the existing Family Church Campus to the east with the subject Property. The signage (subsequent application process) on the property will provide for increased visibility to the church campus. Project History The Property has been developed with an approximate 1,566 square foot home with a swimming and carport. According to the Saint Lucie County Property Appraiser’s website the home was constructed in 1972. The home and accessory structures were demolished in early 2022 and the site is now vacant. To the applicant’s knowledge there has not been any additional approvals granted to The Property. Surrounding Uses Below is a description of the uses on the adjacent property (or those on the other side of abutting Right-of-Ways) to the north, south, east, and west of the Property. North: To the north of The Property, is a single-family home built in 1971 and identified by Parcel Number 3419-560-0002-000-0. This parcel is owned by Carolyn Smith and has a Saint Lucie County Future Land Use Designation of Residential Urban and a Saint Lucie County Zoning Designation of RS-4. Immediately to the north of this property is another single-family home and the existing Family Church campus to the northeast. South: To the south of The Property, beyond NE Solida Drive, is a single-family home built in 1970 and identified by Parcel Number 3419-565-0002-000-5. This parcel is owned by Renato Zamparo and has a Saint Lucie County Future Land Use Designation of Residential Urban and a Saint Lucie Page 32 of 349 Page 2 of 4 AJ ENTITLEMENTS & PLANNING, LLC Southeast Florida (561) 284-2472 | autumn@ajentitlements.com County Zoning Designation of RS-4. Immediately to the south of this property is a drainage ditch owned by Saint Lucie County. East: To the east of The Property is the existing Family Church Campus built in 1962 and identified by Parcel Number 3428-233-0001-000-6. This parcel is owned by Family Church-8 and has a Saint Lucie County Future Land Use Designation of Public Facilities and a Saint Lucie County Zoning Designation of Institutional. Immediately to the east of this property is a drainage ditch owned by Saint Lucie County with a vacant 4.85-acre parcel beyond that also owned by Family Church-8. West: To the west of The Property, beyond NE Airoso Blvd, is a single-family home built in 1969 and identified by Parcel Number 3419-555-0003-000-1. This parcel is owned by Shelly Simon and has a Saint Lucie County Future Land Use Designation of Residential Urban and a Saint Lucie County Zoning Designation of RS-4. Immediately to the east of this property is a drainage ditch owned by Saint Lucie County with recreational facilities beyond. Site Design As noted above, the applicant is applying for a rezoning approval to allow for the Property to be joined to the existing Family Church Campus. Beyond the applicant’s intent for signage on the Property, there are no development plans, and the Property will remain void of driveways, parking, and habitable structures. Rezoning Standards, Land Development Code Section 11.06.00 This proposed Rezoning Application meets the requirements set forth in the County’s LDC Section 11.06.00: 1. State whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with any portions of the LDC. According to the LDC: 1) “The purpose of this district (RS-4) is to provide and protect an environment suitable for single-family dwellings at a maximum density of four (4) dwelling units per gross acres, together with such other uses as may be necessary for and compatible with low density residential surroundings”; and whereas 2) the Institutional district is to provide and protect an environment suitable for institutional, public, and quasi-public uses, together with such other uses as may be compatible with institutional, public, and quasi-public surroundings. Given the acquisition of the Property by Family Church-8 in July 2021 and the subsequent demolition of the home and accessory structures, the Property will no longer be used for residential, and the zoning designation should reflect the same. The rezoning of the Property will allow for the applicant to assemble the Property to the existing Family Church Campus to the east. There are no development plans for the Property beyond the plans for signage. 2. Describe Changed Conditions or Circumstances. Family Church-8 acquired the Property in July of 2021. As mentioned throughout this document, The Applicant is seeking to join the property with the existing adjacent Family Church Campus to the east. Although there are currently no development plans at this time, except for signage, the property will no Page 33 of 349 Page 3 of 4 AJ ENTITLEMENTS & PLANNING, LLC Southeast Florida (561) 284-2472 | autumn@ajentitlements.com longer be used for residential purposes. As such, the Institutional Zoning Designation is the most appropriate. 3. State why there is a need for the proposed rezoning. The applicant acquired the property on July 16, 2021, from the previous homeowner for purposes of providing increased visibility to the church campus to the east by demolishing the existing house, joining the Property to the existing church campus, and to provide signage. Although there are no development plans (other than future signage) currently, the Property will no longer be used for residential and the proposed Zoning Designation of Institutional is more appropriate for the Property, given the new Property owner and assemblage of the adjacent parcel. 4. State whether the proposed rezoning is consistent with the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Table in Policy 1.1.1.3 of the Saint Lucie County Comprehensive Plan indicates that the proposed Institutional Zoning District is a permitted zoning category for the existing RU Future Land Use Designation. The rezoning of the Property will allow for the applicant to assemble the Property to the existing Family Church Campus to the east. There are no development plans for the Property beyond the plans for signage. 5. Please give a statement outlining the extent to which the proposed amendment: A) Is compatible with existing land uses. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the existing uses and surrounding zoning districts. As mentioned above under “Surrounding Uses”, institutional (place of worship) uses have already been approved and constructed to the east of The Property. In addition, according to the Saint Lucie County Property Appraiser’s website, the existing place of worship (now known as Family Church) was initially built in 1969, prior to most of the adjacent residences. The rezoning of the Property will allow for the assemblage with the existing Family Church to the east. Given the Property’s location at the corner of Airoso Blvd (4 lane road) and Solida Drive (2 lane road) a non-residential use and zoning designation is more appropriate for the Property. B) Affects the capacities of public facilities, including but not limited to transportation, sewage, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical service. There are no development plans at this time for the Property, as such there will be no impacts on public facilities. C) Affects the Natural Environment. The proposed rezoning will not have an adverse effect on the natural environment, including but not limited to water, air, stormwater management, wildlife, vegetation, wetland or the natural function of the environment. The Property was previously developed with a single-family home and accessory structures but was demolished in early 2022 and the Property is currently vacant. Page 34 of 349 Page 4 of 4 AJ ENTITLEMENTS & PLANNING, LLC Southeast Florida (561) 284-2472 | autumn@ajentitlements.com D) Will result in an orderly and logical development pattern. The proposed rezoning will allow the applicant to assemble The Property with the existing Family Church campus to the east. Given the Property’s location at the corner of Airoso Blvd (4 lane road) and Solida Drive (2 lane road) a non-residential use and zoning designation is more appropriate. The proposed Rezoning will allow for the assemblage of The Property with the existing Family Church campus, which is consistent with the established development pattern. E) Will adversely affect property values in the area. The proposed Rezoning will not have any negative affect on the property values in the area. The 50-year-old house has been demolished, the site has been cleared & leveled and landscaped. 6) Please explain the applicant’s interest in the subject property. As mentioned throughout this document, The Applicant is seeking to join the property with the existing adjacent Family Church Campus to the east. Although there are currently no development plans at this time, except for signage, the property will no longer be used for residential purposes. As such, the Institutional Zoning Designation is the most appropriate. 7) Please include other information or documentation that may be deemed necessary or appropriate to a full and proper consideration and disposition of this particular application. There is no other information to include that hasn’t already been provided in this document and/or the rezoning application package. Conclusion The application for rezoning from Saint Lucie County RS-4 Zoning designation to the Saint Luce County Institutional Zoning designation is consistent with the Residential Urban Future Land Use Designation and surrounding properties.

The applicant is proposing a 96-lot single-family residential development with associated site improvements to be known as the Freeman (PUD) Planned Unit Development.. The project is located outside of the urban service boundary (USB), however central water and sewer services are proposed via St. Lucie County Utilities. Exhibit 1, Site Aerial ************************************************************************** R SECTION 1: REZONE TO THE OFFICIAL ZONING ATLAS STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 11.06.03 In reviewing this application for an amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas, the Planning & Zoning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners shall consider and make the following determinations: A. Whether the proposed rezoning is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code; The proposed Amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas is not in conflict with the applicable provisions of the Land Development Code. The request seeks to amend the Official Zoning Atlas to reclassify the zoning from AG-2.5 (Agricultural-2.5) to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District. Page 69 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 3 Current Zoning: The AG-2.5 (Agricultural -2.5) Zoning District is intended “to provide and protect an environment suitable for productive commercial agriculture, together with such other uses as may be necessary to and compatible with productive agricultural surroundings. Residential densities are restricted to a maximum of one (1) dwelling unit per two and one-half (2.5) gross acres.” Proposed Zoning: The proposed rezoning is to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District. The Planned Unit Development (PUD) District is intended to achieve residential land development of superior quality through the encouragement of flexibility and creativity in design options that: A. Permit creative approaches to the development of residential land reflecting changes in the technology of land development; B. Allow for the efficient use of land, which can result in smaller networks of utilities and streets and thereby lower development costs; C. Allow design options that encourage an environment of stable character, compatible with surrounding land uses; and D. Permit the enhancement of neighborhoods through the preservation of natural features, the provision of underground utilities, and the provision of recreation areas and open space. For a PUD, a minimum of thirty-five percent (35%) of the gross area of land must be for used as common open space, which may include, parks, recreation areas, bicycle and pedestrian paths and facilities, marinas, swimming beaches, common open space, common landscaping and planting areas, stormwater retention areas, or other areas of public purpose or use. Common open space may not include streets, road or drainage rights-of-way, above ground utilities, or parking areas. Additionally, a minimum of fifteen percent (15%) of any existing native upland habitat on the property must be preserved in its natural condition as part of the required thirty-five percent (35%) common open space. The proposed development provides for 57.24% or 55.15 acres of open space, exceeding the required 35%. B. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan; The Future Land Use designation of the subject property is RE (Residential Estate). The RE land use category is adopted as follows: “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 and nonresidential development under the following criteria: “Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code.” •All residential and nonresidential 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 (1) unit per one gross acre. Page 70 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 4 The presented residential density is consistent with the maximum of one (1) dwelling unit per one (1) gross acre. The proposed rezoning to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District is consistent with the current RE (Residential, Estate) Future Land Use designation per Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.3: Land Use Designation / Zoning Compatibility Future Land Use Categories Zoning District s AG - 5 AG - 2 . 5 RE RS RU RM RH R/ C CP U B CO M IN D P/ F MX D SD H T/ U TV C PUD X X X X X X X X X X X X X The proposed Amendment is consistent with the following Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element Goals, Objectives, and Policies: Objective 1.1.8: Planned Developments. The County shall continue to support and encourage innovative land use development patterns including planned developments through the adequate provision in the County's Land Development Code including Planned Unit Developments (PUD), Planned Non-Residential Development (PNRD) and the Planned Mixed Use Development (PMUD) zoning designations. Policy 1.1.8.1 – The County shall continue to encourage the use of planned development techniques to conserve open space and environmentally sensitive areas, through the County's Land Development Code which shall include: a. Minimum acreage requirements necessary to support a viable mixed use community providing sufficient design flexibility to allow innovation and creativity in all forms of planned unit developments; b. Minimum open space standards, consistent with the percentages identified in the Land Development Code for all planned developments and including assurances that such areas will remain as open space to protect existing native habitat, to provide for minimum setback needs from adjacent uses, and to provide active and passive recreational as well as visual amenities; c. Provisions ensuring the long term preservation of remaining open spaces; d. A mixed use district combining residential, commercial, recreational, educational, and other income producing uses providing significant functional and physical integration among uses; e. Minimum standards for the provision of on-site shopping, job opportunities and internal trip capture; and, f. Specific requirements to provide efficient, centralized infrastructure (potable water and sanitary sewer). Include specific restrictions on the use of septic tanks, individual wells, and package plants in planned unit developments. g. Development consistent with the Towns, Villages and Countryside Element and the Transfer of Development Rights Program outlined under Objective 11.1.7. Objective 1.1.9: Residential Areas. Property owners' investments, their quality of life and the single-family neighborhood, as a defined residential area, shall be protected from the encroachment of commercial and/or other inappropriate land uses through consistent and predictable application of the Land Development Code. Policy 1.1.9.1 - All new subdivisions, planned unit developments and site development plans shall be designed to include an efficient system of internal traffic circulation that does not require internal trips or trips of short duration to be forced onto the major roadway network. Connections to new and existing subdivisions shall be encouraged. Page 71 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 5 Policy 1.1.9.2 - All new subdivisions shall be designed so that all individual lots have direct access to the internal street system, and that any lot or property along the periphery of the development is to be buffered from any major roadway and incompatible land uses. C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed zoning is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; As stated above, the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District is compatible with the current RE (Residential, Estate) Future Land Use designation per the Land Development Code (LDC) and Comprehensive Plan. This amendment will not create a conflict with the surrounding zoning districts and existing and proposed land uses.

Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment; The applicant is pursuing a rezoning to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District for residential development that is compatible with surrounding uses and nearby residential communities such as Pine Hollow to the north and the Creekside PUD to the southeast. The current AG-2.5 (Agricultural-2.5) zoning limits lots sizes to no less than 2.5 acres, whereas the project seeks more compact lot sizes in favor of density aligning with the Future Land Use Category of RE (Residential, Estate) and common area components within the community. With the increase in St. Lucie County’s population, the Freeman PUD will support the demand for medium density single-family home sites in a transitional area on the western edge of urban development and rural agricultural lands. According to The Florida Legislature’s Office of Economic Development and Research, St. Lucie County’s population grew from 340,060 in 2021 to 350,518 in 2022. The population is anticipated to grow to 403,213 by 2030. The area has seen an increase in population from out of state and people moving from South Florida. The housing demand will likely continue to increase due to the rapid population increase. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities; The proposed change in zoning should not adversely affect the acceptable level of service capacity of transportation facilities, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, or emergency medical facilities. Page 73 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 7 Prior to the issuance of a Final Development Order, the developer must demonstrate that all public facilities are available to serve the parcel and obtain a Certificate of Capacity. The applicant has signed the required Concurrency Deferral Affidavit recognizing this provision. Drainage Following approval of a Preliminary Site Plan, and Final Site Plan, the development must receive a Site Development Permit from the Public Works Department to ensure the project does not adversely impact adjacent properties. Water/Wastewater Water & wastewater services will be provided by the St. Lucie County Utilities system. Transportation Impacts The analysis demonstrates that the adjacent roadway segments have sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed land use change. Further analysis will be reviewed at the time of final site plan review. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment; The proposed amendment is not anticipated to create significant impacts on the natural environment. The applicant provided an environmental impact report that assesses existing environmental conditions on the subject property. The Environment Resources Department reviewed the submitted Environmental Impact Report and provided the following evaluation: Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the October 12, 2022 date-stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services. The applicant is proposing a 96-unit residential subdivision with associated site improvements and is seeking approval of the preliminary development plan to rezone the parcel from Agricultural – 2.5 (AG-2.5) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). The project is located at 11000 Okeechobee Rd in Ft. Pierce and currently consists of three (3) parcels collectively consisting of 96.32-acres. Findings An environmental assessment (EA), dated June 30, 2020, prepared by EDC, was provided and reviewed. An updated environmental impact report (EIR) is currently being prepared and is to be provided as part of the final development plan application. No native upland habitats were identified onsite, which is consistent with the parcel historically being utilized for agricultural purposes. Onsite vegetation predominantly consists of laurel oaks, sabal palms, slash pines, and small amounts of intermixed invasive plants. One (1) small wetland measuring approximately 1.3-acres was identified onsite. The wetland and its associated 25 ft. wide buffer will be placed under a conservation easement and will be surrounded by a designated open space area. Tree mitigation is to be satisfied by the diameter-based methods outlined in LDC 6.00.05.D.3.a, which include the onsite preservation and/or planting of native vegetation. A fee-in-lieu at the rate of $200 per inch of diameter at breast height (DBH) shall be provided to the County for any remaining required tree mitigation. The preliminary development plan prepared by EDC, dated May 31, 2022, was provided and reviewed. The provided open space square footage, planting typicals, and applicable landscape/upland buffering areas meet the standards of review for PUD preliminary development plans as outlined in LDC 7.01.03. Landscaping/planting and buffering specifics are to be reviewed through the site plan process. Recommendation ERD has no objection to the rezoning and preliminary PUD with the conditions outlined below. Page 74 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 8 G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative affects of such patterns; The proposed change in zoning will result in an orderly and logical development pattern. The applicant provided justification that the proposed plan would increase the surrounding land value and homeownership opportunities, and it is compatible with the Pine Hollow residential community to the north, which features 1 acre lots and the Creekside Community PUD to the southeast. The proposed parcel is located outside the Urban Service Boundary, however, utility services are available and will be expanded by the developer to serve a more compact development form, and serve as a transition from larger lot rural development to Okeechobee Road. The site is located on a major roadway close to the Florida Turnpike, I-95 corridor, and commercial development to the east. The internal sidewalk network will ensure residents within the PUD also have access to the exterior sidewalk system, ensuring the potential for people to walk to and from their destinations. Integrated open space will feature ample landscaping and buffering from adjacent residents, passive agricultural lands, and Okeechobee Road. The Freeman PUD project will be providing a 5.48-acre stormwater management lake in the center of the development. This lake is designed to ensure proper drainage and runoff flows on the site to prevent flooding and any other potential issues that could arise with a change in drainage pattern. The lake will also have native vegetated buffer, which will serve as natural habitat for native wildlife. The existing lake on the northeast portion of the site will also remain unaffected by this development. The petition will not negatively affect the development patterns in the surrounding area and may enhance compatibility with the surrounding zoning designations. H. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this Code; The proposed rezoning to a PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning District is not in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the Land Development Code. ************************************************************************** R SECTION 2: PRELIMINARY SITE PLAN STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 11.02.07 Per LDC Section 11.02.05 A. 11, the Planning & Zoning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners shall consider the Preliminary Development Plan at a scheduled public hearing in accordance with the requirements of Section 11.00.03. The public hearing held on the application shall be in accordance with Section 11.00.04. In making a decision on the application, the Board of County Commissioners shall consider the recommendations of the Planning and Zoning Commission and the Planning and Development Services Director and the standards specified in Sections 11.02.07 and 11.06.03. A.Consistency With Local Ordinances and Comprehensive Plan. The proposed plan has been found to be consistent with the general purpose, goals, objectives and standards of this Code, the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan, and the Code and Compiled Laws of St. Lucie County. As noted in the above analysis of the rezoning standards of review, the site plan and proposed use is consistent with Future Land Use Policy 1.1.8.1 in its use of planned development techniques. Page 75 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 9 Future Land Use Element 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 1.1.8: Planned Developments. The County shall continue to support and encourage innovative land use development patterns including planned developments through the adequate provision in the County's Land Development Code including Planned Unit Developments (PUD), Planned Non-ResidentialDevelopment (PNRD) and the Planned Mixed-Use Development (PMUD) zoning designations. Policy 1.1.8.3: The County shall continue to support and implement the mixed-use activity areas as indicated in the Sub-area Mixed Use Activity Area Plans as depicted by name in this Element. Policy 1.1.10.2: Require effective visual and light diffusion barriers between residential and non-residential uses. Standards and requirements for such barriers are to be included in the landscaping and screening regulations of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. Consistency with Land Development Code (LDC) Regulations The proposed development and proposed use are not in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) or Comprehensive Plan. The proposed Preliminary PUD (Planned Unit Development) Site Plan demonstrates compliance with the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and Comprehensive Plan requirements. Pursuant to LDC Section 7.01.00, the intent of the PUD (Planned Unit Development) Zoning designation is to achieve residential land development of superior quality through the encouragement of flexibility and creativity in design options that: A. Permit creative approaches to the development of residential land reflecting changes in the technology of land development; B. Allow for the efficient use of land, which can result in smaller networks of utilities and streets and thereby lower development costs; C. Allow design options that encourage an environment of stable character, compatible with surrounding land uses; and D. Permit the enhancement of neighborhoods through the preservation of natural features, the provision of underground utilities, and the provision of recreation areas and open space. Intensity & Design All reasonable steps have been taken to minimize adverse effects on the immediate vicinity through landscaping, screening, and site design, and all buildings will be constructed, arranged, and operated so as not to interfere with adjacent properties. The project is designed to improve the project perimeter, creating strategic yet aesthetic buffering between the residential neighborhood and the Okeechobee Road right-of-way. This will promote active pedestrian transportation, such as walking and cycling, as well as recreational usage of the perimeter sidewalk. The internal sidewalk network will ensure residents within the PUD also have access to the exterior sidewalk system. The site will include open space with ample landscaping and a walking path for the residents. Page 76 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 10 Open Space The proposed project meets the required thirty-five (35%) percent open space, maintaining 57.24% or 55.15 acres of open space. The Freeman PUD project will be providing a 3.4-acre stormwater management lake in the center of the development. This lake is designed to ensure proper drainage and runoff flows on the site to prevent flooding and any other potential issues that could arise with a change in drainage pattern. The lake will also have native vegetated buffer, which will serve as a natural habitat for native wildlife, as well as an upland transition zone to buffer the littoral zone from adjacent residences. The existing lake on the northeast portion of the site will remain unaffected by this development. Site Access Exhibit 4, Proposed Access Driveway 1 – Okeechobee Road (East) The full access opening on Okeechobee Road is a right-in/right-out driveway and left-in turn lane. The site’s Driveway #1 AM and PM peak hour vehicles are 9 and 30, respectively. This is less than the FDOT’s guideline of 35-55 right-turns for a right-turn lane on road with a posted speed over 45 mph contained in FDOT’s Access Management Guidebook 2019 (AMG) and NCHRP Report 420 (Impacts of Access Management Techniques). FDOT’s AMG’s states “The lower threshold of 35 right-turn vehicles per hour would be most appropriately used on higher volume two-lane roadways where lateral movement is restricted. The 55 right-turn vehicles per hour upper threshold would be most appropriate on lower volume roadways, multilane highways, or driveways with large entry radius (50 feet or greater).” This location is a high speed multilane highway. Page 77 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 11 Driveway 2 – Okeechobee Road (West) The western driveway will be an emergency-only access. The western driveway is a right-in/right-out driveway. An evaluation was based on the FDOT’s Driveway Handbook 2019 Edition, Section 7.2. FDOT’s Handbook, which recommends a right-turn lane when right-turn movements exceed 35-55 vehicles per hour during the peak hour for an unsignalized posted speed limit over 45 mph. The site’s Driveway #2 AM and PM peak hour vehicles are 6 and 19, respectively. Additional lanes out of the site are not needed since adequate capacity is available and peak exiting volumes are relatively low. Traffic The daily and peak hour traffic generation for the development used the trip generation rates for single- family (ITE Land Use 210 – Single Family Detached Housing). The proposed project is expected to generate 895 daily net new external trips, including 65 AM peak hour (16 in/49 out) and 87 PM peak hour (55 in/32 out) trips. A left eastbound turn lane to the site exists. A westbound, right-turn lane at the project entrance will be provided. Further analysis will be reviewed at the time of the final site plan review. Exhibit 5, Preliminary PUD Site Plan Snapshot & Typical Lot Types: [Page intentionally left blank] Page 78 of 349 Project Name: The Freeman PUD File No.: PUD_RZ-10202126208 12 Single-Family Lot Options: The single-family homes shall comply with the setbacks in the attached exhibit above. The accessory structures such as a pool, screen enclosures, and accessory buildings, shall be 25 feet from the front, 15 feet from the sides, and 7.5 feet from the rear. The maximum height of the single-family home is 35 feet. B.Effect on Nearby Properties. 1. The proposed residential use will not have an undue adverse effect upon nearby property, the character of the neighborhood, traffic conditions, parking, utility facilities, and other matters affecting the public health, safety, and general welfare. 2. All reasonable steps have been taken to minimize any adverse effect of the proposed building or use on the immediate vicinity through building design, site design, landscaping, and screening. 3. The proposed building or use will be constructed, arranged, and operated so as not to interfere with the development and use of neighboring property, in accordance with applicable zoning district regulations.

Freeman, EDC, Inc. (EDC) has completed this Environmental Assessment (EA) for the above referenced property. The purpose of this evaluation was to conduct a review of the above listed parcels by means of site visit, review of available aerial photography, listed species review, review of soil resources, informally determine wetland lines and review of environmental regulation pertaining to this parcel. The following report details the findings of our on-site and desktop investigations of the properties as they pertain to St. Lucie County regulations. Please contact the undersigned if you have any questions regarding this report. Respectfully submitted, EDC, Inc. Anthony A.

These parcels surround Thomas Farm Feed and Hay Supply at 10700 Okeechobee Road, Fort Pierce, FL, 34945. The parcels are currently undeveloped. This Environmental Assessment was completed as a precursor to permitting and review by a governmental agency and may be an applicable document for the supporting information associated with a building permit or land development application. EDC, Inc. staff visited the property on June 30, 2020, in order to ascertain the status and composition of any critical habitats, such as wetlands and native uplands that may be onsite. VEGETATION: The vegetation on this site consisted of limited plant species that remain after agriculture use. It is the opinion of EDC that there is no native upland habitat located on site, as the site still showed former row furrows. Notable native plant vegetation observed is as follows: Laurel Oak (Quercus laurifolia), Sabal Palm (Sabal palmetto), and Slash Pine (Pinus elliotti). Invasive plants identified as Category I and II status by Florida Exotic Pest Plant Council (FLEPPC) were observed in small amounts, evenly throughout the site. Invasive plants were noted overtaking the areas along the remnant agriculture rows. The plants observed were Brazilian Pepper (Schinus terebinthifolia), Tropical Soda Apple (Solanum viarum), Caesar Weed (Urena lobata), Old World Climbing Fern (Lygodium microphyllum). Some aquatic nuisance plants such as Cattail (Typha) were noted in ditches with standing water. A tree survey will be necessary to quantify the number of Oaks that will require mitigation due to construction before the final site plan is approved. WETLAND DELINEATION: According to aerial photographs, it appears that there are wetlands on site. A site visit confirmed this observation. Based on the State definition, a wetland consists of three components: 1). Hydric soils. 2). Wetland plants. 3). Hydrologic patterns. All three of these components were found during the field reconnaissance on Parcel ID#: 2328-113-0001-7. This wetland was surrounded by Guava Tree (Psidium guajava) and contained many Brazilian Pepper (Schinus terebinthifolia). Large, hanging mats of Old World Climbing Fern (Lygodium microphyllum) was observed near the wetland as well. A delineation will need to be conducted and further approved with South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD) before any building occurs. WILDLIFE EVALUATION: EDC, Inc. conducted a pedestrian survey throughout the property to investigate for the presence of any plant or animal listed species. No gopher tortoises or any other state or federally listed animal species were found on site. However, cows were present on the Page 116 of 349 Environmental Assessment Okeechobee Road Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, FL Project #19-476 property, using it for grazing. Ibis were observed in the fallow fields. Hog damage was apparent. One woodpecker could be heard. SOIL COMPOSITION: Based on a review of the USDA Web Soil the site is composed of: Arents, 0 to 2 percent slopes- Arents are nearly level and ranges from somewhat poorly drained to moderately well drained. The soil consists of fill material that were excavated and spread over the surface of wet mineral soils. The mixed fill layer is typically 20 to 50 inches thick. The water table is below a depth of 30 inches for most of the year. Organic matter and thus the agricultural potential for this soil is low. Nettles sand- is a poorly drained, nearly level soil found in areas of broad flatwoods. Typically the surface layer is 11 inches thick. Black sand comprises the upper 5 inches, very dark gray sand in the next three inches and dark gray sand in the lower 3 inches. Subsurface layer is light gray sand 22 inches thick. The water table is typically at a depth of 10 inches for 2 to 4 months during wet seasons, and at a depth of 10 to 40 inches for 6 months of longer in most years. Natural vegetation includes slash pine, cabbage palm, saw palmetto, wax myrtle, inkberry, fetterbush, creeping bluestem, chalky bluestem, Florida threeawn, and pineland threeawn. This soil has severe limitations for cultivated crops unless water control and other food management practices are provided. This soil has potential for improved pasture grasses and high potential for dwellings without basements, small commercial buildings, and roads. Oldsmar sand, depressional- This soil is in wet depressions in the flatwoods and the soil is often ponded for six to nine months. The potential for cultivation is low without aggressive water management. Oldsmar sand is sandy, siliceous, poorly drained and slowly permeable sand. These soils are nearly level and found in broad areas of flatwoods and wet depressional areas. In most years the water stands above the surface for 6 to 9 months or more. These soils are saturated for long periods during the wet season. Natural vegetation includes sand weed, stillingia, longleaf threeawn, maidencane and sand cordgrass. The most common grasses are Florida threeawn and pineland threeawn. Water control measures are necessary to overcome excessive wetness. The potential for cultivation is low without aggressive water management. The soil is well suited for pasture and hay crops. Pineda sand- This soil is a nearly level, poorly drained soil in low grassy flats. The water table is typically at a depth of less than 10 inches for 2 to 6 months during wet seasons, and at a depth of 10 to 40 inches for the remaining time. This is a nearly level poorly drained soil found in grassy flats. The natural vegetation associated with this soil type includes slash pine, cabbage palm, wax myrtle, gallberry, fetterbush, and brooms sedge. The surface layer typically is dark gray and dark grayish brown sand. The subsurface layer is brown fine sand with yellow and brownish mottles. Riviera fine sand- This nearly level soil is poorly drained and has a surficial layer of dark gray sand about four inches thick. The water table is typically at less than 10 inches for two to four months of the year. The soil is well suited for pasture and hay crops. Natural vegetation includes slash pine, cabbage palm, wax myrtle, blue maidencane, broom sedge, pineland threeawn, cord grass, panicums and a variety of sedges. Riviera Fine Sands are loamy, silicious, nearly level and poorly drained soils that formed in beds of sandy and loamy marine sediments. These soils are on broad, low flats and in depressional areas. The water table is within a depth of 10 inches for 2 to 4 months in most years and between a depth of 10 and 30 inches for most of the rest of the year. Page 117 of 349 Environmental Assessment Okeechobee Road Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, FL Project #19-476 Wabasso sand- This soil is a nearly level, poorly drained soil in broad open areas of the flatwoods. The surface layer is sand about 8 inches thick. The upper 4 inches is black and the lower 4 inches is dark grey. The water table is typically at a depth of less than 10 inches for 1 to 4 months during the wet season, and at a depth of 10 to 40 inches for 6 to 9 months in most years. Natural vegetation is slash pine, cabbage palm, saw palmetto, running oak, inkberry and fetterbush. Common grasses are threeawn and bluestem. The soil has severe limitations for cultivated crops and citrus due to wetness. The soil has high potential for dwellings without basements, small commercial buildings, local roads and streets. Building on a site that naturally retains heavy amounts of water will require extensive planning and drainage options, especially in the case of multi-family units. ST LUCIE COUNTY REGULATIONS According to the St Lucie County Property Appraiser’s Report, all three of the subject property has a land use code of 6000. Along with approval of a building plan, a permit will be required to clear any native vegetation and prep the site to build. This is where the aforementioned Tree Survey will become important. The Public Works Director will want to know that all native vegetation is accounted for. See supporting regulations below. Sec. 6.00.05 - Vegetation Removal Permit must be obtained in compliance with the Land Development Code (LDC). The Tree Survey will document the amount of native vegetation qualifying for replacement, using Table 1 in this section of the Land Development Code. There are certain threshold measurements for trees that, if equal to or greater, they will require mitigation. This measurement varies by species and growth style of the trees. At this site, the main species to be concerned with are: Palm Trees greater than 10’ tall, and Laurel Oaks with a trunk measurement equal to or greater than 12” in circumference. It is recommended to mitigate on site as much as possible. Regulations below. Sec. 6.00.05.D Calculating Required Mitigation. 1. Where mitigation is required to compensate for the loss of native vegetation, meeting the minimum size thresholds outlined in Table 1, the replacement vegetation shall be calculated at a ratio of two (2) inches D.B.H. replacement per one inch D.B.H. removed (2:1). { For example, removal of a twelve-inch Slash Pine results in twenty-four (24) inches required mitigation } 2. Palm tree mitigation shall be calculated at a ratio of one palm tree preserved/relocated/planted per one palm tree removed (1:1). Palm trees shall not be counted towards mitigation of non-palm species. { For example, removal of one (1) Cabbage Palm with a clear trunk measuring ten (10) feet or greater results in required mitigation of one (1) Cabbage Palm with a clear trunk measuring ten (10) feet or greater. Sec. 6.00.05.C.11 - Vegetation destroyed or damaged as part of the development of a site or parcel, shall be replaced by vegetation of equal environmental value as specified by the Public Works Director, or his/her designee, in consultation with the Growth Management Director, before any occupancy or final use permit authorizations are issued. Page 118 of 349 Environmental Assessment Okeechobee Road Fort Pierce, St. Lucie County, FL Project #19-476 Due to the fact that there is a wetland on site, it will be important to remember how these regulations can change the form a project takes. Wetland regulations can be strict and costly to deal with. It will be important, only AFTER wetlands are approved by the state, to create and site plan that limits impact as much as possible. Some mitigation may be necessary, but the goal is to avoid it at all costs. See supporting regulation below. Sec. 6.02.03.E.2b. - All Practical Measures will be taken to Reduce Impact: Restoration or creation may be permitted to compensate for wetland loss only where the applicant has modified the proposed development to reduce wetland loss and degradation. Acceptable modifications include site design to reduce fill into or drainage of the wetland; other erosion control measures where the activity will cause erosion; construction of pretreatment facilities for stormwater to be discharged into wetlands; and, scheduling restoration activities at such time of year as would have the least impact upon the wetland or endangered or threatened species. Under St. Lucie County regulations, this site will further need and Environmental Impact Report (EIR). See supporting regulation below. Sec. 11.02.09.5 – Environmental Impact Report. Whenever a submission of a site plan is required, an environmental impact report shall be provided if the proposed development meets any of the following: a. The property is ten (10) acres or over; b. The property, regardless of size, contains any wetland, or; Overall, these environmental regulations will be important to consider when designing a site plan. Navigating the county regulations for mitigation of native vegetation will be important to avoid unnecessary impacts. Impacts to wetlands involve a specific process for permitting and mitigating in St. Lucie County as well as the state of Florida that can add time and costs to a proposed project. SUMMARY: It is the professional opinion of EDC that there are wetland habitats on the site. It will be necessary to receive state and possibly federal approval of wetland habitat before construction commences. Depending on the site plan, the wetland may be impacted and thus require mitigation. The rest of the former agriculture should be suitable for the proposed build. A well- executed site plan will limit the amount of wetland and tree mitigation that will be necessary. Additionally, no gopher tortoises or any other listed animal species were found on site. Furthermore, the soil should be suitable for building, provided excellent drainage is utilized.

Page 127 of 349 Environmental resources Final report TO:Tahir Curry, Planning & Development Services THROUGH:Aimee L. Cooper, Environmental Regulations Manager Amy E. Griffin, Environmental Resources Director FROM:Brian Arbeiter, Sr. Environmental Planner DATE:July 5th, 2022 SUBJECT:Freeman Fort Pierce Parcel – Preliminary Development Plan for Rezone PUD_RZ-10202126208 Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the October 12th, 2022 date-stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services. The applicant is proposing a 96-unit residential subdivision with associated site improvements and is seeking approval of the preliminary development plan to rezone the parcel from Agricultural – 2.5 (AG-2.5) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). The project is located at 1100 Okeechobee Rd in Ft. Pierce and currently consists of three (3) parcels collectively measuring 96.32-acres. Findings An environmental assessment (EA), dated June 30th, 2020, prepared by EDC, was provided and reviewed. An updated environmental impact report (EIR) is currently being prepared and is to be provided as part of the final development plan application. No native upland habitats were identified onsite, which is consistent with the parcel historically being utilized for agricultural purposes. Onsite vegetation predominantly consists of laurel oaks, sabal palms, slash pines, and small amounts of intermixed invasive plants. One (1) small wetland measuring approximately 1.3-acres was identified onsite. The wetland and its associated 25 ft. wide buffer will be placed under a conservation easement and will be surrounded by a designated open space area. Tree mitigation is to be satisfied by the diameter-based methods outlined in LDC 6.00.05.D.3.a, which include the onsite preservation and/or planting of native vegetation. A fee-in-lieu at the rate of $200 per inch of diameter at breast height (DBH) shall be provided to the County for any remaining required tree mitigation. The preliminary development plan prepared by EDC, dated May 31st, 2022, was provided and reviewed. The provided open space square footage, planting typicals, and applicable landscape/upland buffering areas meet the standards of review for PUD preliminary development plans as outlined in LDC 7.01.03. Landscaping/planting and buffering specifics are to be reviewed through the site plan process. Recommendation ERD has no objection to the proposed PUD preliminary development plan. Please contact Brian Arbeiter at 772-462-2866 if you have any questions. Page 128 of 349 ITEM NO.

Type of Concurrency Document Required: Concurrency Deferral Affidavit BACKGROUND ANALYSIS The applicant, Donald Myers, is requesting an Amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas from the RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac) Zoning District to the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District for this 33.30-acre site located at the northwest corner of W Angle Road and Keen Road, north of the Belcher Canal, in Fort Pierce. The property is designated by the TVC (Towns, Villages, & Countryside) Future Land Use category and situated within the Urban Service Boundary (USB), the Airport Overlay Zone and is within the TVC Overlay Zone. The applicant’s stated petition is to allow the applicant and his family to construct single-family homes, operate a small family farm, and sell goods at an off-site market. Aerial Map Page 132 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 3 Future Land Use: The Future Land Use designation of the subject property is TVC (Towns, Villages, & Countryside). 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, predicable, 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 Special Area Plan, created with a high degree of citizen participation.” Current Zoning: The current zoning of the subject property is RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac). The purpose of the RS-4 Zoning District is “to provide and protect an environment suitable for single-family dwellings at a maximum density of four (4) dwelling units per gross acre, together with such other uses as may be necessary for and compatible with low density residential surroundings.” Current Zoning RS-4 Page 133 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 4 Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning of the subject property is AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac). The purpose of the AG-1 Zoning District is “to provide and protect an environment suitable for productive commercial agriculture, together with such other uses as may be necessary to and compatible with productive agricultural surroundings. Residential densities are restricted to a maximum of one (1) dwelling unit per gross acre.” Proposed Zoning [Remaining Page Left Blank Intentionally] Page 134 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 5 ******************************************************************** REZONING OF THE OFFICIAL ZONING ATLAS STANDARDS OF REVIEW LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 11.06.03 Section 11.06.03 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code establishes the standards for reviewing Zoning Atlas Amendments. In reviewing this application for an amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas, the Board of County Commissioners shall consider and make the following determinations: A. Whether the proposed rezoning is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code. The proposed rezoning to the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District is consistent with the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and meets the Standards of Review set forth in LDC Section 11.06.03, as displayed in Sections A thru J of this report. The rezoning is consistent with LDC Section 11.09.02(A), Table 11-1 - Zoning District/ Land Use Category Compatibility Chart and the site meets the dimensional requirements set forth in Section 7.04.00 and Table 7-10 – Lot Size and Dimensional Requirements for the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District. The proposed AG-1 Zoning District is consistent with surrounding parcels, providing the use scope in LDC Section 3.01.03(A) and the District purpose. The TVC Overlay Zone, encompassing the petition site, supports new and ongoing agricultural uses and activities. LDC Sec. 4.04.03(E.) – Overview of TVC Approval Processes states “owners of land of any size may initiate, continue, or expand agricultural uses (including forestry and equestrian uses) in accordance with the requirements of the agricultural zoning district that applies to the land. This option is available both inside and outside the USB.” The site is located within the Airport Overlay Zones. Per LDC Sec. 4.00.04 – Airport Overlay Zones, Use Restrictions, notwithstanding any other provision of this Code, no use may be made of land or water within any zone established by this section in such a manner as to create electrical interference with navigational signals or radio communication between aircraft and the airport; result in glare in the eyes of pilots using the airport; impair visibility in the vicinity of the airport; operate or install lights which are misleading or dangerous to aircraft operation; create bird strike hazards, or otherwise in any way endanger or interfere with the landing, takeoff, or maneuvering of aircraft intending to use the airport. B. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The proposed rezoning to the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District is consistent with the TVC (Towns, Villages, & Countryside) Future Land Use designation as provided in the table within Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.3 - Land Use Designation / Zoning Compatibility Chart. Page 135 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 6 Table - Land Use Designation / Zoning Compatibility Chart Future Land Use Categories Zoning Districts AG - 5 AG - 2 . 5 RE RS RU RM RH R/ C CP U B CO M IN D P/ F MX D SD H T/ U TV C AG-1 X X X X X X AG-1 is considered a compatible zoning district within the TVC Future Land Use Category, as noted in LDC Section 11.09.02 Zoning Conformance Consistency Matrix Table 11-1. The St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan encourages agricultrual uses within the TVC. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.13.5 states the County shall support the expansion of agricultural activities, and maintain a sufficient agricultural land base to increase the sustainability, expansion, and diversification of agricultural activities. The County supports local food production, in order to meet the mulitple goals of reduced emissions and energy consumption, while increasing the resiliency and long term food security of the community. The development of specialty foods, farmer’s market products, and food processing industries to increase and diversify the agricultural ecominic base shall be encouraged. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.3.6 requires property owners to provide adequate buffering and/or setbacks between agriculture and non-agricultural uses to protect such agricultural uses from adverse impacts associated with encroachment of non-agricultural development or creation of nuisances by agricultural operations, with the use of Agricultural Best Management Practices. The right-of-way to the south (a canal and roadway), roadway to the east, AR-1 (Agricultrual – 1 du/ac) zoning to the west, and AR-1 (Agricultrual – 1 du/ac) and IL (Industrial, Light) zoning to the north provide separation from any agricultural activities and uses on the subject parcels. Further, the subject parcel contains a large pond which may limit future design or uses (agricultural and residential) on the property. C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed zoning is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; The amendment will not create a conflict with the surrounding land uses. The proposed rezoning is consistent with the existing and proposed uses, and the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District is compatible with future uses of adjacent lands in the TVC (Towns, Villages, & Countryside) Future Land Use designation, as per the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) and Comprehensive Plan.

D. Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment. The applicant purchased the property with the intent to rezone for single-family home(s) and a small agricultural business, including a farm with farm animals to facilitate selling goods at a local market. The applicant filed applications for a plat (Project #BCC-CSEN-3202226353-26353) and a Minor Site Plan (Project #MNSP-3202226355-26355) concurrently with the Rezoning application. The subject parcels were previously zoned AR-1 (Agricultural, Residential – 1 du/ac). Resolution 04-093, approved by the Board of County Commissioners on August 3, 2004, granted rezoning the property to a higher density zoning district, RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac), in anticipation of the Rio Lago Subdivision. Resolution No. 06-042, granted Major Site Plan Approval for the Rio Lago Subdivision, and was adopted on July 11, 2006. The Rio Lago site plan expired, and further single-family home development ceased. On May 30, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance 06-017, the TVC Element of the Comprehensive Plan. On December 6, 2011, the Board of County Commissioners adopted Ordinance 11-002, creating Section 4.04.00, TVC Overlay Zone, and related development standards. These land development regulations were authored to implement the vision of development in the TVC Special Area Plan as adopted into Chapter 11 of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan and the in-depth, citizen-driven public input process that took place between 2004 and 2006. The applicant, Donald Myers and his wife, Jessica Myers, purchased the properties on February 24, 2021. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities. The proposed change in zoning should not affect the acceptable level of service capacity of transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, or emergency medical facilities. Site-specific impacts will be addressed through a development application. Prior to the issuance of any Final Development Order, the developer must demonstrate that all public facilities are available to serve the parcel and obtain a Certificate of Capacity. The applicant has signed the required Concurrency Deferral Affidavit recognizing this provision. East RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac) RU (Residential Urban – 5 du/ac) Harmony Estates Subdivision West AR-1 (Agriculture-1 du/ac) TVC (Towns, Villages, & Countryside)Agriculture Page 137 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 8 Water/Wastewater Water and wastewater services are available through the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority. Gas service is available to the site (from Angle Road). For sewer service, a lift station will be required given that the only available point of connection for sewer service is the force main on Angle Road. Transportation Impacts The subject parcels front on Keen Road, a seventy-five (75) foot-wide County owned and maintained right- of-way, which connects Angle Road to St. Lucie Blvd., two arterial roadways. The proposed uses (low density residential and agriculture) are not anticipated to conflict with the restrictions outlined in the Airport Overlay Zones guidelines. No additional transportation impacts are anticipated at this time, with a Concurrency Deferral Affidavit secured. Future site development will be evaluated for transportation impacts. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment. Background The Environmental Resources Department (ERD) is in receipt of the March 17th, 2022, date-stamped submittal from Planning and Development Services. The applicant is requesting approval to change the zoning of the subject parcels (Parcel IDs 1336-441-0003-000-1, 1336-441-0001-000-7, & 1336-443-0003- 000-7) from RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac) to AG-1 (Agricultural -1 du/ac). An associated Minor Site Plan application (MNSP-3202226455) and Plat application (BCC-CSEN-3202226353) are concurrently being reviewed at this time. The project is located at 2115 Keen Road and currently consists of three (3) vacant parcels zoned RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family - 4). Findings The proposed rezoning is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts, as much of the subject area has been previously impacted by agricultural activities. ERD will conduct further review through the site plan and building permit review process. Recommendation The Environmental Resources Department has no objection to the approval of the referenced Rezone Petition. G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would adversely affect the property values in the area. The proposed change is zoning is not anticipated to adversely affect the property values in the area. H. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative affects of such patterns. The proposed change in zoning will result in an orderly and logical development pattern. The parcels are located within the Urban Service Boundary, with existing residential and agricultural uses located to the north, south, and west. The requested rezone is not expected to harm other property or improvements in the neighborhood. Page 138 of 349 Project Name: Myers Family Farm Rezone File No.: RZ-3202226354-26354 Page 9 A substantial portion of the property is occupied by a manmade pond that may influence future development. The lower density district provides for a transition between non-residential to the north and residential to the south. I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this Code. The proposed rezoning to the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District is not in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the Land Development Code. LDC Sec. 4.04.04(C.) – TVC Specific Standards, Agricultural Uses, provides that “owners of land are encouraged initiate, continue, or expand agricultural uses (including forestry and equestrian uses) in accordance with the requirements of the agricultural zoning district that applies to the land. This option is available to all land regardless of size both inside and outside the USB. At a minimum, nothing in the TVC Overlay or other implementing regulations may be construed to supersede or interfere with agricultural rights protected under Florida's Right to Farm Act.” The proposal would reduce the allowable on-site residential density, within the Airport Overlay zone, serving as a transition between future non-residential development potential to the north and west and existing or planned residential to the east and south. J.Any other matters that may be deemed appropriate by the Planning and Zoning Commission or the Board of County Commissioners, in review and consideration of the proposed amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commission and the Board of County Commissioners may raise other matters regarding the proposed amendment. CONCLUSION: Staff has reviewed this petition and determined that it conforms to the Standards of Review as set forth in Section 11.06.03 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code and is consistent with the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Goals, Objectives, and Policies. RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends the Planning & Zoning Board forward a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners to approve rezoning the subject parcel from RS-4 (Residential, Single-Family – 4 du/ac) to the AG-1 (Agricultural – 1 du/ac) Zoning District.

LOWE SR., CHAIR PUBLISH DATE: Friday, February 3, 2023 TR-GCl1013780-01 Page 188 of 349 Page 189 of 349 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: Land Use. 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.

Page 190 of 349 St. Lucie County 1-5 Adopted_updated 12.2022 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element GOPs O. Conservation The Conservation land use designation has been divided into two future land use 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. 1. 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 0.20 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 (10) acres, or involving more than eight (8) 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 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 Special Area Plan, created with a high degree of citizen participation. Page 191 of 349 St. Lucie County 11- 5 Adopted_updated 12.2022 Comprehensive Plan TVC Element GOPs Objective 11.1.2: To create an incentive-based policy framework that limits growth in the Towns, Villages and Countryside areas to a sustainable model of development while maintaining the community’s rural character and improving the citizens’ quality of life. Policy 11.1.2.1 - Establish the Framework. The framework shall be known as Towns, Villages and Countryside (TVC) and shall be a separate future land use map designation governed by the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the TVC Element. Policy 11.1.2.2 - Application. The TVC Element shall apply to those portions of the County where the TVC land use designation has been adopted; however, all other policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan apply, except where specifically addressed by the TVC. The Goals, Objectives and Policies of this element are interrelated and are to be applied in their entirety to new development. Policy 11.1.2.3 - Urban Services - Proposals to build in accordance with the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the TVC Element and the intent of the approved Special Area Plan shall be eligible to receive urban services even if such developments are located outside the Urban Service Boundary (USB). Providing urban services to such development does not trigger an expansion of the USB. Development outside of the USB that does not meet the requirements of the TVC Element is not eligible to receive urban services, even if such development is proposed in proximity to a service extension that has been provided for another development approved under the TVC. Planned Unit Developments (PUDs) are not exempt from this policy. Parcels that develop in accordance with Policy 11.1.2.6(5) may also be eligible to receive urban services. Outside of the TVC area, Future Land Use Objective 1.1.5 and its policies shall govern the provision of Urban Services. Policy 11.1.2.4 - Expedited review process. The County shall establish an expedited process for rezoning and development review within six months of the effective date of the TVC Element. Since the TVC Element provides incentives for large-scale settlement plans, and does not provide incentives for piecemeal development, the expectation is for an assemblage of coordinated development plans that may result in numerous projects meeting the threshold for Development of Regional Impact (DRI) review process. The County will work with the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council to reduce Council’s DRI review process to ninety days for projects that propose to build in accordance with an approved Special Area Plan and the TVC Goals, Objectives and Policies. A development proposal that meets the threshold for DRI review, but does not propose to build in accordance with an approved Special Area Plan or in accordance with the TVC Goals, Objectives and Policies, is not eligible for the TVC expedited review process. Policy 11.1.2.5 - Transferable Development Value (TDV) Map. The TDV Map establishes the potential uses, densities and intensities for properties in the TVC area, as established in the pre-existing Future Land Use Element as of [date of adoption of TVC amendment]. The TVC Element shall not limit the underlying potential densities or intensities, as established by the pre-existing Future Land Use Element. New nonresidential uses allowed pursuant to the pre-existing Future Land Use Element shall be encouraged to follow the retail and workplace strategies outlined in this element and shall follow the TVC Land Development Regulations. The potential densities and intensities on the TDV Map may be increased by the application of the policies in the TVC Element. Furthermore, for development that conforms to the TVC Element, any excess transferable development Page 192 of 349 St. Lucie County 11- 6 Adopted_updated 12.2022 Comprehensive Plan TVC Element GOPs rights remaining on the site after the application of the TVC Land Development Regulations may be transferred under the TDR Program outlined by Objective 11.1.7. Policy 11.1.2.6 - Options for Development Outside of the Urban Service Boundary. Properties located outside of the Urban Service Boundary (USB) have several options for development in the TVC area: 1. Develop a Town or Village in accordance with the requirements of the TVC Element; or 2. Submit a joint application with other property owners to develop a Town or Village in accordance with the requirements of the TVC Element; or 3. Maintain the property in its natural state or for existing and new agricultural uses consistent with the adopted agricultural zoning designations. Such uses are encouraged to remain and may be expanded over time; or 4. Maintain the property in its natural state or for agricultural uses and utilize the Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) Program outlined under Objective 11.1.7 for the sale and transfer of at least 90% of the unused transferable development rights to an eligible receiving site within the approved Special Area Plan; or, 5. For parcels less than 500 acres in size, utilize the TDR Program to transfer a minimum of 90% of the transferable development rights to an eligible receiving site within the approved Special Area Plan. The property may be subdivided into individual home sites up to 10% of the transferable development rights. Such home sites are eligible to receive urban services at the property owners’ expense after 90% of the transferable development rights has been permanently set aside for future transfer; or 6. For parcels less than 500 acres in size, subdivide the property into individual home sites with densities and intensities equal to or less than the number permitted by the transferable development rights. Such properties are not eligible for the incentives offered by the TVC, including access to urban services and utilization of the TDR Program. New development shall connect roadways, trails and open space and be compatible with existing adjacent development, without affecting the property’s existing density and intensity. Policy 11.1.2.7 - Subdivision Limitations. Existing parcels of record as of [date of the adoption of the TVC] that are 500 acres or more in size and located outside of the Urban Service Boundary (USB), shall develop in accordance with Policy 11.1.2.6 (1),(2),(3) or (4). Policy 11.1.2.8 - Right to Farm: At a minimum, Florida’s Right to Farm laws apply to existing and new agricultural uses in the TVC. Owners of the land are encouraged to initiate, continue, and expand agricultural operations and shall be protected in accordance with the allowances of the agricultural zoning district that applies to the land. Objective 11.1.3: To provide incentives to reallocate potential development from areas located outside of the Urban Service Boundary (USB) to appropriate areas located inside the USB. Policy 11.1.3.1 - Incentives for Development Inside the USB. 1. County Incentives. For projects that conform to the TVC Land Development Regulations and, additionally, provide affordable housing, workforce housing or propose mixed-use development, the County may offer incentives such as, but Page 193 of 349 St .

Please show caution when clicking links or opening attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Yes you are 100% correct. At first in my original DRC meeting they told me I couldn’t get AG-1 and that I would have to go AR-1 but later in my 2nd DRC meeting Chris from zoning (formally with the county) told me they were wrong and that AG-1 fits better in the towns, country and Villiages outline which was great news to me. So yes definitely AG-1 for the zoning. Very aware the 32’ set back from canal is for SFWM access for maintenance and I must follow all setbacks from (my) property lines for building which I have no plans of building anywhere near any of my property lines. Is everything going ok? Does it appear I have submitted everything? :) Just very excited to get through this. You ladies and gentlemen have been amazing to work with.

The location is illustrated in Figure 1. Figure 1. Location Map The Application seeks an amendment of the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map regarding approximately 18.2 acres. The amendment, if approved, will change the future land use designation from RU (Residential Urban) and IND (Industrial) to COM (Commercial). The land is currently used primarily for open outdoor storage of electrical utility equipment and truck and automobile parking. It has been used for this or similar purposes for more than 10 years. (The earliest aerial photo layers on the County GIS system are from 2011.) The Property Appraiser identifies three structures on the property--a 3811 sq. ft. industrial warehouse, a 2,760 sq. ft. modular building, a former single-family dwelling constructed in 1927 and now used as an office, and a 1,056 sq. ft. garage also constructed in 1927. An aerial image is provided as Figure 2. The existing Future Land Use Map and the proposed Future Land Use Map are shown in Figures 3 and 4. A companion application has been submitted for the same land area requesting the amendment of the Zoning Atlas from IL (Industrial, Light) and RS-3 (Residential, Single-Family-3) to CG (Commercial, General).

Proposed Future Land Use Map In reviewing a petition for an amendment of the Future Land Use Map, the Planning and Zoning Commission should consider whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan and Florida Statutes. The Development Review Committee (DRC) has reviewed this application and determined it complies with the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The proposed amendment is consistent with the overall intent of the Comprehensive Plan which encourages the integration of development in a manner that is based upon the general principals of smart growth, energy-efficient land use patterns, discouraging urban sprawl, and supporting sustainable commercial growth in appropriate areas. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.2.1. provides as follows: “The adopted Future Land Use Map Series and any amendments shall promote responsible growth management practices. When considering any amendment to the Future Land Use Maps of the County’s Comprehensive Plan, the County Commission shall make the following findings, supported by the other elements of this Plan, prior to taking any approval actions granting an individual amendment to the Future Land Use Maps: 1. That the property under land use amendment application is adjunct to, or within no more than one-quarter mile of the same or greater type of land use classification. FUTURE LAND USE MAP AMENDMENT STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN THE ST. LUCIE COUNTY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN AND FLORIDA STATUTES Subject Property Orange Ave. Je n k i n s R o a d Page 209 of 349 FLUMA-2210-000018 page 5 2. That the property under land use amendment consideration lies within the Five-Year Capital Improvement Program of the Water and Wastewater Master Plan for St. Lucie County (or can be reasonably accommodated with an amendment to the Master Plan) or otherwise meets the requirements of Policy 1.1.5.4 [formerly Policy 1.1.5.3].” As shown on Figures 3 and 4--the existing Future Land Use Map and the proposed Future Land Use Map—the COM (Commercial) Future Land Use designation exists on land within 1,320 feet from the subject site in three directions—north, east and west. The subject site is located within the Urban Services Boundary and within the Fort Pierce Utility Authority’s (FPUA) Service Area for water and wastewater. FPUA has confirmed the availability of water and wastewater services to serve the subject site and that capacity is available at FPUA’s Water Treatment Plant and Water Reclamation Facility. An existing 12-inch water line is located along the west side of the property and an existing 16-inch sanitary sewer line is present along the north side of the property. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.2.1 is met. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.2.2. provides as follows: “In accordance with Florida Statutes, proposed future land use map amendments to the County’s Comprehensive Plan, shall be based upon the following analyses: 1. An analysis of anticipated growth; 2. An analysis of the availability of facilities and services; 3. An analysis of the suitability of the plan amendment for its proposed use considering the character of the undeveloped land, soils, topography, natural resources, and historic resources on-site; 4. An analysis of the compatibility of adjacent land uses; and 5. An analysis of the need for job creation, capital improvement, and economic development that will strengthen and diversify the community’s economy; and 6. A consultation with the Florida Department of Transportation when it is determined that a proposed amendment has the potential to affect facilities on the Strategic Intermodal System. The subject site and the requested amendment are evaluated pursuant to each of the factors in Policy 1.1.2.2. below. 1. An analysis of anticipated growth. Consistent with trends for the State of Florida, local population has increased dramatically and steadily for several decades. In the 30 years between 1990 and 2020, the population of St. Lucie County more than doubled, from 150,171 to 329,226. Between 2010 and 2020, the County’s population increased 19%, from 277,789 to 329,226. The University of Florida’s Bureau of Economic and Business Research (BEBR) projects that the 2050 population in St. Lucie County will fall between 372,000 and 601,000. BEBR believes its “medium” population projection is the most likely to provide accurate forecasts in most circumstances. As presented in Table 2, the medium population forecast places the 2050 St. Lucie County population at 486,900, representing an increase of 157,674 people or 48% from 2020. Page 210 of 349 FLUMA-2210-000018 page 6 Table 2. Population Projections for St. Lucie County prepared by BEBR (Source: Projections of Florida Population by County, 2025–2050, with Estimates for 2021 – BEBR). In addition to the overall population growth in St. Lucie County, the anticipated growth in the residential population and numbers of employees in the vicinity of the subject site lends support for the proposed Future Land Use Map Amendment. As illustrated in Figure 5 and the data table supporting Figure 5, nearly 3.9 million sq. ft. of light industrial space is being planned in the vicinity of the subject site. Extrapolating from a presentation by the Economic Development Council of St. Lucie County to the Board of County Commissioners at the November 1, 2022 public hearing on the proposed KRE Future Land Use Map amendment, indicates that 3.9 million square feet of light industrial space can result in 438 to 2,150 direct jobs (depending on whether the light industrial activity is distribution or manufacturing). Commercial activity on the subject site can help conveniently meet the needs of these employees for goods and services in the vicinity of their employment. Furthermore, up to 3,737 dwelling units are being planned north of Orange Avenue in the vicinity of the subject site and dwelling units are being constructed in previously approved residential neighborhoods south of the subject site. The Bent Creek and Celebration Point developments are approved for some 1400 dwelling units and Whispering Oaks PUD, located immediately south of the subject site, is approved for 374 residential dwelling units. See Figure 6. The Commercial Future Land Use designation can help conveniently meet the needs of these residents for goods and services in close proximity to their homes.

Nearby Residential Communities—approved or/or constructed south of the subject site. 2. An analysis of the availability of facilities and services. Pursuant to Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.6.3, facilities for potable water, sanitary sewer, solid waste, drainage and transportation facilities shall be in place and available to serve new development no later than the issuance of the certificate of occupancy or its functional equivalent such that there is no reduction in the Level of Service (LOS) for these facilities and services. Those facility improvements needed to ensure the adopted LOS are achieved and maintained, are required to be made prior to commencement of construction. More detailed analysis of available facilities and services will be part of the review of the proposed Site Plan. The subject site has, or will have prior to development, facilities and services available to support the types and intensity of development that the amendment of the Future Land Use Map will allow. The subject site is located within the Urban Services Boundary. The site is within the Fort Pierce Utility Authority’s (FPUA) Service Area for water and wastewater. FPUA has confirmed the availability of water and wastewater services to serve the subject site and that capacity is available at FPUA’s Water Treatment Plant and Water Reclamation Facility. Comprehensive Plan Objective 2.1.1 provides: “The St. Lucie County transportation system shall be reviewed in coordination with any requested changes to the Future Land Use Element or other related components of this plan. A report on the impacts to the system brought about by any proposed land use Subject Site Bent Creek Celebration Point Whispering Oaks Page 213 of 349 FLUMA-2210-000018 page 9 changes shall be prepared and presented to the Board of County Commissioners as part of the review of that Land Use change.” A Pre-Application Meeting was held regarding the possible development of 158,000 sq. ft. of commercial space in several buildings. Assuming retail use, based on national averages available from the Institute for Traffic Engineers, the subject site could be expected to generate some between 3,827 and 7,868 (national average = 37 trips per day per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross leasable area) vehicle trips per day. That estimation of trip generation is subject to adjustments based on the percentage of those trips which can be expected to be captured from the 10,669 average daily vehicles (2022 Traffic Counts and Level of Service Report (2020 data)) already travelling on Jenkins Road between Peterson Road and Orange Avenue and the 15,435 average daily vehicles (2020 data) already travelling on Orange Avenue between Jenkins Road and Hartman Road. The existing transportation network is generally capable of absorbing the demand expected to be created from the amendment of the Future Land Use Map. At the time of site plan review, any needed improvements on Orange Avenue or Jenkins Road required by the development, such as right and left turn lanes or timing of the signalization, will be identified and provided for. Finally, a community shopping center of 158,000 sq. ft. can be expected to contribute $1,259,102 in road impact fees, which are intended to cover the traffic impact of the development. 3.An analysis of the suitability of the plan amendment for its proposed use considering the character of the undeveloped land, soils, topography, natural resources, and historic resources on-site. The subject site has been cleared and urbanized for many years. The subject site is not located within a Special Flood Hazard Area. With the possible exception of a few mature native trees, the site appears to be devoid of natural resources. The County Environmental Resources Department concluded that the amendment of the Future Land Use Map and Official Zoning Atlas is not anticipated to result in any adverse environmental impacts. The Soil Survey prepared by the United States Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service is presented in indicates the presence of five different soils: 25 – Nettles and Oldsmar sands 26% of the exhibited area 26 – Oldsmar sand, depressional 15% of the exhibited area 38 - Riviera fine sand, 0 to 2% slope 10% of the exhibited area 55 - Winder loamy sand <1% of the exhibited area 48 – Wabasso sand, 0 to 2% slope 50% of the exhibited area All of the soils present on the site are characterized as poorly drained with shallow depth to groundwater. The characteristics of the soil must be accounted for when planning and designing the stormwater management system. Redevelopment of the site will provide improved stormwater management consistent with current standards. Figure 7.

An analysis of the compatibility of adjacent land uses The proposed COM Future Land Use designation is compatible with adjacent land uses. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2.J. provides as follows: “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 of 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 from a map amendment. 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.” Table 3 (below) identifies the future land use designation, zoning districts and existing use of adjacent parcels. The Orange Avenue corridor is a mixture of commercial, industrial and residential land uses along a busy arterial roadway connecting downtown Fort Pierce to I95. Redevelopment will be accompanied by roadway beautification pursuant to the County landscaping requirements and the structures will be subject to the County’s Community Architectural Design standards. Redevelopment pursuant to the COM Future Land Use designation will represent in-fill development that better serves the needs of motorists, nearby residents and employees than does the current under-developed nature of the site. As shown in Figure 4, the proposed subject site shares a 1,288-foot boundary with a residential PUD to the south and a +/-740-foot boundary with existing single-family residential lots to the east. While the residents of these residential neighborhoods may benefit from convenient access to commercial goods and services, care will be required to ensure proper buffering through landscaping and transition in scale and form between the future commercial uses and the proximate existing and proposed residential uses. Assuring a proper transition between the residential uses and the proposed commercial uses will receive detailed attention during consideration of any future proposed site plan. 5. An analysis of the need for job creation, capital improvement, and economic development that will strengthen and diversify the community’s economy. Both the current—Industrial--and the proposed--Commercial--future land use designations allow development that can create jobs, stimulate capital improvements and contribute to economic development. The proposed commercial use will diversify land uses in the area. The development anticipated to occur pursuant to the amendment of the Future Land Use Map may include some 158,000 sq. feet of commercial space, including a supermarket. Being less than one mile from the Westwood Academy High School, such commercial development could result in numerous part-time employment opportunities for high school students. Further, the County Property Appraiser estimated market value of the structures on the property is $353,200, just ten percent (10%) of the estimated market value of the land. By facilitating commercial redevelopment of the site, the requested Future Land Use Map Amendment can lead to increased property valuation and therefore increased tax revenue.

A consultation with the Florida Department of Transportation when it is determined that a proposed amendment has the potential to affect facilities on the Strategic Intermodal System St. Lucie County engineering staff regularly consults with the Florida Department of Transportation regarding development projects that directly or indirectly impact the Strategic Intermodal System and other state-owned roadways. Orange Avenue is a state facility and a Pre-App meeting with Florida Department of Transportation will be required at development. Conclusion: Based on the evaluation of the six factors that Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2, as summarized above, staff concludes that this proposed amendment of the Future Land Use Map is consistent with the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan and advances the best interests of the County and its residents and businesses. ADVANCEMENT OF COMPREHENSIVE PLAN POLICIES The proposed amendment of the Future Land Use Map advances numerous Comprehensive Plan Goals, Objectives, and Policies, including the following from the Future Land Use Element: Objective 1.1.5 “Urban Sprawl. Consider changes to the future land use plan based upon smart growth, energy- efficient land use patterns and discouraging the proliferation of urban sprawl.” Objective 1.1.6. “Urban Service Area Boundary. In coordination with the other elements of this plan, future development within the Urban Service Area shall be directed to areas where urban and community services/facilities can be provided in the most efficient and compact manner so as to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl.” Page 216 of 349 FLUMA-2210-000018 page 12 Objective 1.1.13. Economic Sustainability. To enhance the quality of life of St. Lucie County and promote a sound and resilient local economy, St. Lucie County shall continue to work with the interested groups and agencies to increase and broaden the County's economic base while expanding existing business and industrial opportunities. Goal 1.2: Recognize that land use and transportation must be considered concurrently in all planning, and to the extent feasible, modify current land use patterns to decrease dependency on the automobile in order to minimize the need for future roadway expansion, promote the use of alternate modes of transportation and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Objective 1.2.1: Transportation. The County shall continue to explore planning concepts which provide for fewer and/or shorter automobile trips to address the future needs for movement of people and goods, and which considers social, economic, energy and environmental effects including greenhouse gas emissions of the transportation system. Policy 1.2.1.1 - Explore development patterns which allow for employment and shopping opportunities in close proximity to residential uses. The restructuring of the physical form of commercial retail uses from a linear to a nodal pattern shall be encouraged to foster more compact, clustered pedestrian and transit- oriented, mixed-use development options. The proposed amendment of the Future Land Use Map also advances Comprehensive Plan Goals, Objectives, and Policies from the Economic Development Element: Goal 10.1: Support economic development in St. Lucie County as part of an overall strategy for sustainability and quality of life. Policy 10.1.1.1 - Attract investors to help diversify the industrial base, broaden the economic tax base and strengthen the job market. Policy 10.1.1.2 - Encourage redevelopment projects and business expansions that will promote economic development opportunities. Policy 10.1.1.4 - Place a high priority on infill projects that are consistent with the smart growth policies of St. Lucie County. Goal 10.2: Diversify the year round economy and establish an economic and cultural climate that will allow St. Lucie County to effectively compete in the global economy. Objective 10.2.5: The County shall, through economic development projects encourage diversification of the tax base to further support long-term investment in County quality of life. Policy 10.2.5.1 - The County shall encourage appropriate investments that result in beneficial property values for non-residential and residential properties. Policy 10.2.5.2 - The County shall support economic development activities that encourage growth in non-residential development resulting in the creation of long term commercial and industrial targeted industry jobs together with comprehensive increases in assessed valuations and ad Page 217 of 349 FLUMA-2210-000018 page 13 valorem tax receipts for non-residential development.

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: Land Use. 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.

Page 233 of 349 St. Lucie County 1-2 Adopted_updated 12.2022 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element GOPs 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 and nonresidential development under the following criteria: • All residential and nonresidential 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 (1) unit per one gross acre. 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 (1) to two (2) 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. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code. 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 (5) 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 unit development process. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code. 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 (9) 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. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards Page 234 of 349 St. Lucie County 1-4 Adopted_updated 12.2022 Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Element GOPs 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 of 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 from a map amendment. 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. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code. 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. 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) Treasure Coast 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, the State of Florida or local designation.

Proposed use of amendment lands: Commercial Reason for making this request: This proposal will enrich the environment with decorative landscaping and retention basins, and improve the quality of life for the residents by providing them with much more attractive programs compared to industrial zoning. Conforms to the SLC Comprehensive Plan Yes, it confirms to the Comprehensive Plan as it follows the principles: 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. Policy 1.1.1.2 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 Amendment Lands This proposal follows the logic of the development of the area because there is a commercial zoning strip that is being present along Orange Avenue corridor, and the fact that these properties are located at the intersection of two large driveways even makes this choice more obvious. Included with this submittal are the zoning and future land use maps that show the surroundings better. Land Use Policy a.

Szedlmayer, AICP, Senior Planner DATE: February 8, 2023 SUBJECT: 5501 Orange Avenue - Amendment of the Official Zoning Atlas (Rezoning) RZ-2210-000013 Page 257 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 2 Right-of-Way: Jenkins Road is a 73-foot County-owned and -maintained right-of-way. Orange Avenue is a State-owned and -maintained right-of-way that is approximately 120 feet wide at the western end of the subject property and approximately 85 feet at the eastern end. Utilties: The site is within the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority Service Area. FPUA has water, wastewater, and natural gas lines available to serve the property. Electricity from Florida Power & Light (FP&L) is available. Concurrency: A Concurrency Deferral Affidavit was filed. BACKGROUND ANALYSIS This application is regarding property located on the south side of Orange Avenue, east of Jenkins Road, less than one-half mile east of I-95. The location is illustrated in Figure 1. The Application seeks an amendment of the Zoning Atlas from IL (Industrial, Light) (+/-14.4 acres) and RS-3 (Residential, Single-Family-3) (+/-3.7 acres) to CG (Commercial General) (+/- 18.2 acres). This is the companion application to the Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map Amendment request from RM (Residential Medium) and IND (Industrial) to COM (Commercial) for the same land area. A Plat (subdivision) recorded on February 8, 2023 divided the petition site from a +/- 2.5 acre outparcel planned with a 7-Eleven at the adjacent road intersection. Figure 1. Location Map The land is currently primarily used for open outdoor storage of electrical utility equipment and truck and automobile parking. It has been used for this or similar purposes for more than 10 years. The Property Appraiser identifies three structures on the property--a 3811 sq. ft. industrial warehouse, a 2,760 sq. ft. modular building, a former single-family dwelling constructed in 1927 and now used as an office, and a 1,056 sq. ft. garage also constructed in 1927. An aerial image is provided as Figure 2. The existing Zoning Atlas and the proposed Zoning Atlas are shown in Figures 3 and 4.

Current Zoning Atlas Page 259 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 4 Figure 4. Proposed Zoning Atlas Current Future Land Use: The subject site has split future land use designations. The future land use designation of +/- 14.4 acres is IND (Industrial) and the remaining 3.7 acres is Residential Medium (RM). See Figure 5. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2. describes these two future land use designations as follows: “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 (9) 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. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code. 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.” “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, Subject Property Je n k i n s R o a d Orange Avenue Page 260 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 5 developments proposing to incorporate heavy industrial uses will be required to be adequately buffered from any adjacent use that would be incompatible. Limited nonresidential uses may be appropriate, in accordance with applicable standards and restrictions as set forth in the Land Development Code.” Proposed Future Land Use: A concurrent application has been filed to amend the Future Land Use Map to give the entirety of the subject property the COM (Commercial) Future Land Use designation. See Figure 6. Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2. describes the COM future land use designation as follows: “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 of 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 from a map amendment. 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.” Figure 5. Current Future Land Use designation Subject Property Page 261 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 6 Figure 6. Proposed Future Land Use designation Current Zoning: Mirroring the split future land use designations, the current zoning of the subject property is also split-- RS-3 (Residential, Single Family-3) on +/-3.7 acres and IL (Industrial, Light) on +/- 14.4 acres. The St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC), provides as follows regarding the RS-4 and IL Zoning Districts: LDC Section 3.01.03.I.: “The purpose of [the RS-3] district is to provide and protect an environment suitable for single-family dwellings at a maximum density of three (3) dwelling units per gross acre, together with such other uses as may be necessary for and compatible with low density residential surroundings.” LDC Section 3.01.03.T.: “The purpose of [the Industrial, Light] district to provide and protect an environment suitable for light manufacturing, wholesale, and warehousing activities that do not impose undesirable noise, vibration, odor, dust, or other offensive effects on the surrounding are, together with such other uses as may be necessary to and compatible with light industrial surroundings.” Proposed Zoning: The proposed zoning of the subject property is CG (Commercial General). LDC Section 3.01.03.S., provides as follows: Subject Property Page 262 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 7 “The purpose of [the Commercial General] district is to provide and protect an environment suitable for a wide variety of commercial uses intended to serve a population over a large market area, which do not impose undesirable noise, vibration, odor, dust, or offensive effects on the surrounding area, together with such other uses as may be necessary to and compatible with general commercial surroundings.” ********************************************** STANDARDS OF REVIEW AS SET FORTH IN THE LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE SECTION 11.06.03 In reviewing this application for an amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas, the Board of County Commissioners and the Planning and Zoning Commission shall consider and make the following determinations: A. Whether the proposed rezoning is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code; Assuming the application to amend the Future Land Use Map to designate the subject site COM (Commercial), the proposed amendment of the Official Zoning Atlas to place the subject property in the CG (Commercial General) Zoning District is consistent with the LDC and meets the Standards of Review set forth in LDC Section 11.06.03, as explained in this Section A thru J of this staff report. Pursuant to LDC Section 11.09.02(A), Table 11-1 - Zoning District/Land Use Category Compatibility Chart --the CG Zoning District is consistent with the COM Future Land Use designation. Further, the subject site meets the standards established by LDC Section 7.04.00 and Table 7-10 – Lot Size and Dimensional Requirements -- for the CG Zoning District. Table 1. Lot and Dimensional Requirements for the CG Zoning District compared to Subject Site CG Standard per LDC Table 7-10 Subject Site Minimum Lot Area 20,000 sq. ft. ~793,000 sq. ft. Minimum Lot Width 100 feet 961 feet Minimum Road Frontage 60 feet 1,231 feet Any proposed development on the subject site, pursuant to the CG Zoning District, will be required to comply with all other applicable regulations, including landscaping, community architectural standards, off-street parking and loading, and stormwater management. B. Whether the proposed amendment is consistent with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan; Pursuant to Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.3 - Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix, the CG Zoning District is consistent with the COM Future Land Use designation. An excerpt of the Consistency Matrix is set forth below as Table 2. Page 263 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 8 Table 2. Excerpt of Comprehensive Plan Land Use/Zoning Consistency Matrix in Policy 1.1.1.3. Zoning Districts Future Land Use Categories RE RS RU RM RH CO M IN D MX D SD H RS-3 Residential, Single-Family X X X X IL Industrial Light X X CN Commercial Neighborhood X X X X X X X CO Commercial Office X X X X X X X CG Commercial General X X X As previously set forth, Comprehensive Plan Policy 1.1.1.2.J. provides as follows regarding the COM (Commercial) Future Land Use designation: “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 of 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 from a map amendment. 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. As stated in Comp Plan Policy 1.1.1.2.J. and shown in Table 2, the CG (Commercial General) Zoning District is not the only zoning district that is consistent with the COM (Commercial) Future Land Use designation. The CN (Commercial Neighborhood) and CO (Commercial Office) Zoning Districts are also consistent with the COM Future Land Use designation. Nonetheless, the location on Orange Avenue with 15,435 vehicles passing each day, the diversity and scale of the buildings and the development possible on a parcel of approximately 18 acres, and the more inclusive list of permitted uses makes CG the most appropriate zoning district for the subject site. Note, the 15,435 trips were counted in 2020 during the corona virus pandemic, a time during which vehicle travel was down substantially across the country. The permitted, conditional and accessory uses for the CN , CO, and CG Zoning Districts are set forth in Appendix A. As emphasized in the staff report for the companion application to amend the Future Land Use Map, the commercial development that will be enabled by the COM Future Land Use designation can help meet the need for goods and services of the residents of the more than 5,000 dwellings in the vicinity of the subject Page 264 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 9 site that are already lived in, have been completed and for sale, are under construction, have been approved, or are in the planning and review phase, as well as the hundreds to thousands of employees who work or will work in the millions of square feet of Light Industrial space that exists, is being constructed, or is being planned and reviewed. The availability of commercial goods and services in proximity to where people live and work can reduce the number of vehicle trips taken and can reduce the length of those vehicle trips (also referred to as vehicle miles travelled). In light of this potential, CG Zoning on the subject site can advance the following Comprehensive Plan Objective and Policy: Objective 1.2.1: Transportation. The County shall continue to explore planning concepts which provide for fewer and/or shorter automobile trips to address the future needs for movement of people and goods, and which considers social, economic, energy and environmental effects including greenhouse gas emissions of the transportation system. Policy 1.2.1.1 - Explore development patterns which allow for employment and shopping opportunities in close proximity to residential uses. The restructuring of the physical form of commercial retail uses from a linear to a nodal pattern shall be encouraged to foster more compact, clustered pedestrian and transit-oriented, mixed-use development options. C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed zoning is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; The future land use designations, the zoning districts and the actual current uses of the land surrounding the subject site are mixed. Three future land use designations, six zoning districts, and a mix of current uses are present. See Table 3. The proposed rezoning from RS-3 (Residential Single Family) and IL (Industrial Light) to the CG (Commercial General) Zoning District is generally consistent with the existing and proposed land uses. The proposed amendment should not create conflict with the surrounding zoning districts. The current use of the property -- open storage yard and truck and vehicle parking use--is consistent with the present IL Zoning District, but less consistent with the nearby residential uses. Redevelopment pursuant to the CG Zoning presents an opportunity to beautify the site through adherence to the landscaping code and the community architectural standards and therefore be more consistent with the nearby residential zoning and uses. Care will be needed in the site design to properly transition from the Commercial General zoning and uses to the residential zoning and uses to the south and east to buffer the residential uses from adverse impacts such as excess light and noise from the subject site. D. Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment; The estimated 5,000 dwelling units that exist or are planned in the vicinity of the subject site coupled with the hundreds to thousands employees that are expected in the same vicinity creates a need for commercial goods and services. Additionally, the subject site is underutilized given the prime location on busy Orange Avenue. The prospect of large scale modern industrial development on larger nearby parcels might be expected to result in decreased demand for industrial use of the subject site. In 2022, a 7-Eleven Site Plan was approved at the immediate northwest boundary of the petition site. The development plan includes an approximate 4,500 sq. ft. retail convenience store with 16 fueling positions. The Plan was accompanied by a Plat (subdivision) to separate the 7-Eleven into an outparcel of the remaining +/- 18.2 acres subject of this rezoning; however cross-access and similar design features should provide for an appropriate transition to future commercial development.

Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities; The expected redevelopment of the subject site for uses permitted by the CG (Commercial General) Zoning District will likely increase the demand on several public facilities. However, the proposed change in zoning should not adversely impact the level of service of transportation facilities, sanitary sewer infrastructure, potable water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, or emergency medical facilities. Site-specific impacts will be addressed through a Site Plan application. Prior to the issuance of any Final Development Order, the developer must demonstrate that all public facilities are available to serve the parcel and obtain a Certificate of Capacity. The applicant has provided the required Concurrency Deferral Affidavit recognizing this provision. Water/Wastewater The subject property is located within the Fort Pierce Utilities Authority (FPUA) service area, with central water and wastewater services available to the petition site. The FPUA provided an illustration showing a 12-inch water main under the middle of Orange Avenue, with an 8-inch line crossing Orange Avenue to the subject site and a 12-inch water line continuing south on the east side of Jenkins Road. There are also sanitary sewer lines along the north and west side of the subject site. The sufficiency of the water and wastewater utility infrastructure will be reviewed during site plan review. Page 266 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 11 Transportation Impacts As discussed in the staff report regarding the application to amend the Future Land Use Map, a Pre- Application Meeting was held regarding the possible development of 158,000 sq. ft. of commercial space in several buildings. Assuming retail use, based on national averages available from the Institute for Traffic Engineers, the subject site could be expected to generate some between 3,827 and 7,868 (national average = 37 trips per day per 1,000 sq. ft. of gross leasable area) vehicle trips per day. That estimation of trip generation is subject to adjustments based on the percentage of those trips which can be expected to be captured from the 10,669 average daily vehicles (2022 Traffic Counts and Level of Service Report (2020 data)) already travelling on Jenkins Road between Peterson Road and Orange Avenue and the 15,435 average daily vehicles (2020 data) already travelling on Orange Avenue between Jenkins Road and Hartman Road. The existing transportation network is generally capable of absorbing the demand expected to be created from the amendment of the Future Land Use Map. The 2022 Traffic Count and Level of Service Report produced by the St. Lucie County Transportation Planning Organization indicates that Orange Avenue is operating at a Level of Service (LOS) of C during the morning and afternoon/evening peak times. LOS C is above the minimum acceptable LOS of D adopted by Comprehensive Plan Policy 2.1.2.6 for urban, multi-lane state roadways. At the time of site plan review, any needed improvements on Orange Avenue or Jenkins Road required by the development, such as right and left turn lanes or timing of the signalization, will be identified and provided for. Finally, a community shopping center of 158,000 sq. ft. can be expected to contribute $1,259,102 in road impact fees, which are intended to cover the traffic impact of the development. Adequacy of Fire Protection The rezoning is not anticipated to impose adverse impacts on the St. Lucie County Fire District service capacity. The closest Fire Station is Station #1, located at 2400 Rhode Island Avenue, Fort Pierce, FL 34983, which is approximately three miles southwest of the subject site). Any site plan or building permit(s) shall require the Fire District’s final review. Other Public Facilities and Services Commercial development is not anticipated to create any direct impact on public parks and recreation, unless in a hospitality category. All development is required to comply with adopted standards of the South Florida Water Management District and the Water Control District having jurisdiction of the site’s stormwater discharge. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment; The County Environmental Resources Department concluded that the proposed rezoning designation is not anticipated to cause any adverse environmental impacts as no development activities are proposed at this time. Both the IL and the CG Zoning Districts permit 50% lot coverage by buildings. G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would adversely affect the property values in the area; The proposed change in zoning will not adversely affect the property values in the area. The redevelopment made possible by the change in zoning to CG (Commercial General) might be expected to have a positive impact on property values in the area by beautifying and activating the subject site. Page 267 of 349 5501 Orange Ave. Rezoning File No.: RZ-2206-000009 Page 12 H. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative affects of such patterns; The proposed change in zoning will foster an orderly and logical development pattern. The parcel is located inside the Urban Service Boundary in an area where the residential population and the daytime employee population is expected to increase substantially. The CG zoning will enable convenient access to commercial goods and services for those residents and employees. I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this Code; As elaborated upon in the discussion of Criterion A through H, the proposed rezoning is consistent with the public interest. The re-zoning will enable redevelopment of an in-fill site, potentially provide convenient goods and services to nearby residents and employees, reduce the length of vehicle trips and perhaps reduce the number of vehicle trips, create employment opportunities, including for students at nearby Westwood Academy High School, and increase the property tax revenue from the subject site.

Changed Conditions The commercial zoning would be more suitable for the area as it would be an addition to the existing developed commercial areas and it is located at the intersection of two major roadways, the first being Orange Avenue and the second being Jenkins Road. Additionally, the area already contains residential property within proximity to the site and the current industrial zoning is not suitable or compatible with residential property. 18.17 Need for Rezoning Being at the intersection of the two major roadways, the Orange Avenue and Jenkins Road, and given the fact that this area is part of the special district that is developing, commercial zoning would fit much better than industrial zoning which is more suited for the areas that are not in the close proximity to the developing urban areas or residential property. Page 1 of 22300 Virginia Avenue February 06, 2023 Page 283 of 349 PLAN SNAPSHOT REPORT (RZ-2210-000013) Change Consistent One of the main ideas and goals of the St. Lucie Comprehensive Plan is ensuring the highest quality of living environment possible that is a mixture of uses that reflect the needs of the local residents. Commercial zoning is already present in the area, especially along the Orange Avenue corridor, it is a logical continuation and minimizes the threats of degradation to the health and safety compared to the industrial zoning. Existing Land Use Properties across the Orange Avenue and across the Jenkins Road already have commercial zoning designation and they are a part of the larger commercial area that runs along the Orange Avenue. Public Facilities Since this is a Preliminary Development Order, the analysis will be made at the time of the Final Development Order. The issuance of a Building Permit and any Final Development Order are subject to the requirements for obtaining a Certificate of Capacity and we are aware that no rights to obtain a Building Permit or any other Final Development Order, nor any other rights to develop the subject property have been granted or implied by the County's approval of the Preliminary Development Order. Affects Environment Rezoning to commercial will improve natural environment compared to the industrial zoning as it will have decorative landscaping and retention basins included for the commercial purposes.Rezoning to commercial from industrial also helps to limit potential projects that could have an adverse impact on the environment, because industrial projects are typically more likely to pollute water quality, groundwater, or the environment than projects of a general commercial nature. Orderly and Logical Rezoning to commercial will be a logical continuation to the development of the area because adjacent properties already have commercial zoning designations. Adversely Affect Rezoning to commercial will increase the values of the adjacent properties as it is much more attractive to the people compared to the industrial zoning. Applicant's Interest Applicants are the owners of the properties. Other Information Along with this Application Supplement we are providing zoning and future land use maps that show the development of the area.

These design standards are not intended to stifle imagination nor curtail variety but rather they are for the purpose of promoting a more attractive and unified community appearance. B. Site Plan Submission Standards. Application and Review Process Step 1: Submit Preliminary Conceptual Design Drawings and Site Plans to Planning Department. In addition to the items required for Site Plan Approval in the Land Development Regulations, the following additional items must also be submitted for review and comment. 1. Submittal Requirements.

Szedlmayer, AICP, Senior Planner DATE: February 6, 2023 SUBJECT: Text Amendment to the Land Development Code (TLDC-2212-000019) regarding frontage and platting requirements for Solar Generation Stations Culpepper & Terpening, Inc., representing Florida Power and Light Company (FP&L), has proposed amendments to the Land Development Code regarding substantive and procedural standards applicable to Solar Generation Stations. The proposed amendments will exempt parcels on which Solar Generation Stations are located from having a minimum frontage; that is, having a minimum length fronting a public road or private street that was constructed in conformance with the St. Lucie County standards. The proposed amendments will also exempt the division or redivision of platted or unplatted land from the requirement that a subdivision plat or re-plat be filed and approved. The purpose of these amendments is to further simplify the processes applicable to Solar Generation Stations. The streamlining of the application process for Solar Generation Stations is considered appropriate given the large contiguous tracts of land owned by the private energy company and being develop for Solar Generation Stations; the lack of intent to sell or otherwise convey the tracts to other parties; and the infrequency of vehicle trips (estimated to be one trip weekly) required to inspect and maintain a Solar Generation Station once operational. This is consistent with the intent of the Florida Legislature which adopted Chapter 2021-178, Laws of Florida, creating Section 163.3205, Florida Statutes, to encourage renewable solar electrical generation. Additional amendments have been proposed by staff to clarify that certain zoning districts have a permitted residential density of zero (0) dwelling units per acre, to define bona fide agricultural use and to clarify the definition of Solar Generation Station. BACKGROUND: In July 2022, the Board of County Commissioners adopted amendments to the Land Development Code (LDC), via Ordinance 2022-021, to bring the LDC into compliance with Section 163.3205, Florida Statutes (F.S.) to provide that solar facilities are a permitted use in all Agricultural Zoning Districts. St. Lucie County Ordinance 2022-21 eliminated the Conditional Use Permit process for Solar Generation Stations within the Agricultural Zoning Districts; added solar facilities as a permitted use within the Research and Education Park Overlay Zone; exempted new solar generation facilities within an Agricultural Zoning District from the requirement for paved access to the site; eliminated landscaping requirements; characterized Solar Generation Stations in Agricultural Zoning Districts as Minor Site Plans; and developed criteria for Solar Generation Stations that require approval of a Minor Site Plan. Additionally, the amendment exempted ground-mounted solar panels Page 325 of 349 Project Name: LDC Text Amendment Solar Generation Stations File No.: TLDC - 2212-000019 2 from maximum lot coverage standards and changed the distance that roof mounted solar panels must be from the edge of roof to comply with the 2020 Florida Building Code. The amendments adopted in July 2022 and the amendments proposed now help ensure that St. Lucie County continues to be a leader in the production of clean energy and facilitate the future expansion of solar generation facilities. Table 1. Summary of the proposed amendments to the LDC LDC Section Intent of Change 2.00.00 – Definitions Add a definition for bona fide agricultural use to the LDC that is consistent with Section 823.14., F.S., the Florida Right to Farm Act. 2.00.00 – Definitions Modify the definition of Solar Generation Stations to more closely track the definition in Section 163.3205, F.S. 7.10.28, Supplemental Standards, Solar Energy Consistently capitalize Solar Generation Station(s) throughout the section. 7.10.28.A.(1)(b)7., Supplemental Standards, Solar Energy Provide that the minimum frontage requirements for Solar Generation Stations in Agricultural Zoning Districts is zero (0) provided legal and sufficient ingress and egress is demonstrated. 7.10.28.A.(1)(b)7., Supplemental Standards, Solar Energy Provide mandatory text to appear on the Site Plan and Development Order regarding absence of any governmental responsibility to maintain roads, drives, easements, etc. that are used for access to a Solar Generation Station. 7.10.28.B., Supplemental Standards, Solar Energy Further define what is intended regarding non-utility, solar systems that are accessory uses, such as roof-top or backyard solar systems on residential lots. 11.03.01.B., exceptions to platting Add the words--bona fide agricultural use--to the exemption from platting requirements for the creation of parcels of 20 acres or more for agricultural use. 11.03.01.B., exceptions to platting Add “the division or redivision of platted or unplatted land in the AG-5, AG-2.5 and AG-1 zoning districts for the purpose of developing and operating a Solar Generation Station” to the list of exemptions from platting and provide mandatory text for Site Plans and Development Orders that there is no County obligation to maintain access roads or easements. 7.04.01., Table 7-10 Add a “0” (zero) in the column for Maximum Gross Density (Du/Ac) for the nine zoning districts which permit no residential development. 7.04.01., Table 7-10 Add footnote (n), directing readers to Section 7.1.28.A.1.(b)7. for the minimum frontage requirements for Solar Generation Stations.

LUCIE COUNTY LAND DEVELOPMENT CODE Pursuant to St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC), Section 11.06.03, the Development Review Committee has reviewed the proposed Text Amendment and found it to meet the technical requirements and standards of review. In reviewing this application for a Text Amendment to the LDC, the Planning and Zoning Commission shall consider and make the following determinations: A. Whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with any applicable portions of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code; The amendments are internally consistent with the Land Development Code. The amendments will streamline the regulatory process for the development of solar facilities. B. Whether the proposed amendment is in conflict with all elements of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan; The proposed amendments are consistent with the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. The following specific Comprehensive Plan goals, objectives and policies support the proposed amendment of the Land Development Code: 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 manmade 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 1.1.4: Implementing Land Development Code. Review and amend, as required, the County's Land Development Code which support the implementation of the Future Land Use Element, and the other components of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Objective 1.1.5: Urban Sprawl. Consider changes to the future land use plan based upon smart growth, energy-efficient land use patterns and discouraging the proliferation of urban sprawl. Policy 1.1.5.10 – St. Lucie County shall develop, as needed, Land Development Code amendments to implement recommendations of a Green Jobs and Innovation Corridor Charrette which may include green collar job creation, green energy, energy conservation, building standards, landscaping, public meeting places and guidelines to develop the Research Park so that it will encompass the most current green technology available. Goal 1.4: Ensure through the Comprehensive Plan the development of energy efficient land use patterns and policies that reduce greenhouse gas emissions through innovative sustainable land planning tools which discourage urban sprawl, protect native habitat, reduce automobile use, and maintain open space. Objective 1.4.1: Create 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 based upon the Western Lands Study. Policy 1.4.2.4 –The Land Development Code shall maintain appropriate standards for use of Page 327 of 349 Project Name: LDC Text Amendment Solar Generation Stations File No.: TLDC - 2212-000019 4 alternate, renewable sources of energy including the use of solar panels except in environmentally sensitive areas. The standards are intended to facilitate the commercial generation and distribution of solar power and the use of on-site solar energy systems to meet the energy demands of buildings and support facilities in the unincorporated County. The County shall review the Land Development Code and consider appropriate standards for the use of other renewable sources. Goal 10.2: Diversify the year-round economy and established an economic and cultural climate that will allow St. Lucie County to effectively compete in the global economy. Objective 10.2.2: Establish procedures and tools to encourage business development and assist economic development in St. Lucie County. Policy 10.2.1.4 - Encourage the development of clusters of industries according to the adopted targeted industry list such as Manufacturing Facilities, Finance and Insurance, Information, Clean Energy, Professional, Scientific, and Technical Services, Management and Distribution, and Administrative and Support Services at appropriate locations in St. Lucie County. C. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment is inconsistent with the existing and proposed land uses; The proposed text amendment is consistent with existing and proposed land uses. State law encourages renewable solar electrical generation throughout the State of Florida. As set forth in Section 163.3205(1), F.S., “It is essential that solar facilities and associated electric infrastructure be constructed and maintained in various locations throughout this state in order to ensure the availability of renewable energy production, which is critical to this state’s energy and economic future.” The proposed amendment is expected to have little to no impact on the consistency of Solar Generation Stations with existing or proposed land uses on nearby land. D. Whether there have been changed conditions that require an amendment; As population increases, so does the need for a reliable clean energy grid. The text amendment looks to reduce requirements for new solar generation facilities located within Agricultural Zoning Districts, which could hinder the expansion reliable, clean energy infrastructure. E. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in demands on public facilities, and whether or to the extent to which the proposed amendment would exceed the capacity of such public facilities, including but not limited to transportation facilities, sewage facilities, water supply, parks, drainage, schools, solid waste, mass transit, and emergency medical facilities; While all development is required to adhere to adopted Level of Service (LOS) and concurrency standards, the proposed amendments will create no additional demands on public facilities or services. As explained in a Traffic Impact Report submitted to the County for a proposed Solar Generation Station, once operational, solar generation facilities typically require only one vehicle trip per month for inspection and maintenance purposes. The solar facilities are not staffed. There is no need for water and wastewater services. F. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would result in significant adverse impacts on the natural environment; The proposed text amendment will not result in adverse impacts on the natural environment. The proposed text amendment is not expected to increase development pressures on natural areas and does not modify or exempt improvements from the County’s natural resource protection standards. Page 328 of 349 Project Name: LDC Text Amendment Solar Generation Stations File No.: TLDC - 2212-000019 5 G. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would adversely affect the property values in the area; The proposed amendment is not anticipated to have an adverse impact on property values in the area. Solar Generation Stations have a de minimus impact on agricultural uses permitted within these zoning districts. A review of the market values assigned by the St. Lucie County Property Appraiser to a small number of parcels with agricultural zoning indicates that the value of land developed as a Solar Generation Station is modestly higher than the value of land used for agricultural purposes. H. Whether and the extent to which the proposed amendment would not result in an orderly and logical development pattern specifically identifying any negative effects of such patterns; The proposed amendments will streamline the approval process for new solar generation facilities located within Agriculture Zoning Districts and will maintain an orderly and logical development pattern. Solar Generation Stations have a de minimus impact on agricultural or other rural uses on nearby lands. Because no water or wastewater utilities are required, the Solar Generation Stations do not encourage premature urbanization or a sprawling urban development pattern. I. Whether the proposed amendment would be in conflict with the public interest, and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this code; The proposed amendment is not in conflict with the public interest and is in harmony with the purpose and intent of this code. J. Any other matters that may be deemed appropriate by the Planning and Zoning Commission or the Board of County Commissioners, in review and consideration of the proposed amendment. The Planning and Zoning Commissioners may raise other matters regarding the proposed Land Development Code Amendment. PUBLIC NOTICE: A notice of public hearing display advertisement was published on Thursday, February 2, 2023 in the St. Lucie News Tribune. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff finds the proposed amendments meet the standards of review as set forth in Section 11.06.03 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code, and are not in conflict with the Goals, Objectives, and Policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan. Staff recommends the Planning and Zoning Commission review the agenda materials, consider the presentations made at the public hearing and any public comment received and forward a recommendation of approval to the Board of County Commissioners.
