The continuation of the petition of St. Lucie Self Storage, LLC for
Preliminary/Final PNRD (Planned Non - Residential Development) Site Plan
approval for the project to be known as St. Lucie Business Park Storage PNRD
located in Lot #1 St. Lucie Business Park. The project is located on Business
Park Drive, 610 feet West of US-1, and across US-1 from Mediterranean Avenue
in a PNRD Zoning District. Draft Resolution No 09-008 is attached.
BACKGROUND: The St. Lucie County Growth Management Department is recommending a
continuance to the April 6, 2009 public hearing for the petition of St. Lucie
Business Park Storage for the purpose of allowing enough time to resolve the
Master Drainage Plan and the maintenance of the existing drainage swale
facilities. Staff is recommending the swale be cleaned out prior to this Item
being presented to the BOCC.
The petitioner is proposing a 6-story, 104,369 square feet, self -storage building
with a footprint of 17,796 square feet.
1. On December 14, 1988, Resolution No.88-365 granted the St. Lucie
Business Park PNRD Zoning District.
2. On November 17, 1989, a replat was approved for 13 lots, including Lot
#1.
3. On February 6, 1990, Resolution No. 90- 27 granted a site plan for Lots
#1- #4 and #11-#13. The 1990 site plan depicted 4 buildings constructed
on Lots 1-4 and Lots 11-13, totaling 102,162 square feet.
The 1990 site plan approved a total of 102,162 square feet and showed a one-
story, 26,670 square foot warehouse shown as "Building 2" to be built on Lots #1
& #2. That structure was never erected. Moreover, a 10,000 square foot
building was constructed on Lot #2 in 2000, by Noland Properties, Inc.
Therefore, the proposed building size is not in substantial conformity with the
existing site plan and would exceed the floor area by 77,699 square feet.
Pursuant to Land Development Code Section 11.02.05.F.2, the petitioner is
required to request a New Preliminary/Final PNRD Site Plan.
FUNDS AVAILABLE: N/A
Form No. 07-07
PREVIOUS ACTION: On December 14, 1988, through Resolution No. 88-365 this Board granted a
change in zoning to PNRD.
On November 17, 1989 this Board approved a replat.
On February 6, 1990 through Resolution No. 90-27 this Board approved the site
plan for Lots #1- #4 and Lots #11-#13.
On January 15, 2009, The Planning & Zoning Commission by a vote of 9 to 0
recommended adoption of the Draft Resolution No. 09-008 with four added
conditions.
On February 17, 2009 this Board continued the Item to March 3, 2009 to allow
time for the applicant to resolve the landscape requirements on the western
property line.
RECOMMENDATION: Staff is requesting that this petition be continued to April 6, 2009, at 6:00 PM or
as soon thereafter.

Consider the petition of Barol LLC for a waiver from the paving requirements of Section
SUBJECT: 7.05.07 of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code for the Minor Site Plan for the
project known as "Horseshoe Grove."
Draft Resolution No. 09-010
File No.: 720071270
Current Zoning: AG-5 (Agriculture — 1 du/ 5 acres)
Future Land Use: AG-5 (Agriculture— 1du/ 5 acres)
Project Area: 40.61 acres
BACKGROUND: Horseshoe Grove is pending approval through a GM Order for a 7-lot Minor Site Plan on
40.61 acres of land. The project is located on North FFA Road, which is a County owned
and maintained dirt road. The Land Development Code (LDC) Section 7.05.05 B.2.a(2)
requires paved access from a paved roadway to the subdivision's entrance, to be
designed according to the County's standards. Further, LDC Section 7.05.07(B)(2)
provides for a waiver from the paving requirement provisions by the Board of County
Commissioners, following a public hearing, if the Board determines:
1. That the road paving is not essential to provide adequate access to the proposed
development and through the surrounding area, or
2. That the road will be paved as part of the County's five-year road program or an
approved municipal service taxing or benefit units, or
3. That the access road does not have adequate right-of-way in which to construct
the necessary paving improvements in accordance with County standards.
On July 2, 2007, Growth Management Department received a 7-lot Minor Site Plan
application. The subject parcel (parcel no. 2304-412-0020-0000) was not created in
compliance with Section 11.03.04 - Procedure for Minor Re -Plats and Lot Splits.
The Beville family has agreed to submit a lot split application to legalize Parcel No. 2304-
443-0001-0007 prior to recording a plat for "Horseshoe Grove."

FROM: Britton Wilson, Senior Long Range Planner
DATE: March 3, 2009
SUBJECT: Request for a continuance of the adoption hearing for
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Cycle 2009-1, formerly known as
Comprehensive Plan Amendment Cycle 2008-2.
Scheduled for the March 3, 2009 Board of County Commissioners agenda is the adoption
hearing for the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan Amendment Cycle 09-1 (formerly
known as 08-2). During this hearing, staff will be requesting a continuance of the 09-1
Amendment Cycle to April 21, 2009. There is one remaining item in the 09-1 Amendment
Cycle, which is known as the "Cassens White City Grove," an application to amend both
the Future Land Use Map and the text.
Due to a recent reassignment of this project, a continuance is necessary to properly review
and comply with the Department of Community Affair's issued Objections,
Recommendations, and Comments (ORC) report, received by Growth Management on
January 5, 2009. The requested continuance will afford staff the time necessary to
address outstanding inconsistencies with the State Comprehensive Plan regarding water
resources and public facilities; a process which requires coordination with the Ft. Pierce
Utilities Authority.

From: Diana Lewis, Airport Director
Date: February 20, 2009
Re: Request that the Board approve Change Order #3 for Dickerson Florida, Inc., for
$50,738.00 resulting in a net increase to the original contract amount of $64,532.00
from $3,689,879.78 to $3,754,411.78, with an increase of 20 days to the contract
time changing the substantial completion date from June 6, 2009 to June 26, 2009,
for the second phase of Runway 9L/27R and Taxiway construction at the St. Lucie
County International Airport.
The new runway and taxiway construction project was bid in two phases based on when
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) funds became available. The first phase, which
included the clearing and grubbing of the taxiway and runway areas and relocation of the
canals, was awarded on October 10, 2006 to Dickerson Florida, Inc., (a contractor with
offices in Fort Pierce) in the amount of $5,323,348.00. There have been a total of five
change orders on this phase of the project, increasing the contract amount by $354,133.79,
or 7%, for a total of $5,667,481.74. This amount was within the previously approved budget.
These change orders are also funded by FAA and Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT) grants.
In June 2008, the FAA provided another 95% grant to complete the second phase of the
construction of the runway and taxiway. FDOT also provided a 2.5% matching grant. After a
competitive bid process, Dickerson Florida, Inc., was awarded the second phase of the new
runway/taxiway construction on July 1, 2008 for a contract amount of $3,689,879.78.
Change Order #1 for the second phase of the runway project was approved by the County
Administrator on December 10, 2008. That change order reduced topsoil quantities,
eliminated a 30" steel water main casing and added new culverts and additional hauling for
vegetative debris to be taken to a designated burn area away from the end of Runway 9.
This resulted in a $14,930.00 reduction in the contract amount for a revised total of
$3,274,949.78. No change in contract time was required.
Change Order #2 was approved on February 17, 2009 for unanticipated remedial work
needed to install a culvert crossing and headwalls in an area where the subsurface soils are
substandard. Also being changed are three gate openings that were bid based on a 35 foot
width. It was recently determined that a 40 foot width gate would be needed to accommodate
towing aircraft with up to a 38 foot wingspan. To offset the costs of these additional items,

Re: Request authorization to enter into a Underground Facilities Conversion Agreement with FPL
for the relocation of distribution lines impacting the new Runway 9L/27R at an estimated cost
of $75,287 for a total cost of $1,708,776 to fund the FPL transmission and distribution
powerline relocation, and moving funds from the Airport West Commerce Park capital budget
to cover the shortfall of $75,287 for this project.
In order to operate the new runway and taxiway under construction, powerlines located along Taylor
Dairy Road need to be relocated. This situation was addressed in the Environmental Assessment
prepared in 2004 and discussions with FPL have been on -going since 2005. In August 2007, the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) issued a 95% grant for $1,300,000 to cover the anticipated
cost of $1,320,000 for the construction of the powerline relocation. In addition, the grant also
included a $52,000 preliminary engineering study, which was required by FPL to determine the final
estimate. With the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) and local matches, the total
estimated cost for this project was $1,372,000, which included the cost of the preliminary engineering
study as well as the powerline relocation.
In October 2007, the required $52,000 was sent to FPL to begin the preliminary engineering study.
Although originally advised that this study would take three to four months to complete, the final
packet containing the final estimated cost of the transmission line was not received until January 13,
2009. The projected construction cost for the relocation of the transmission lines increased from the
estimated $1,320,000 to $1,581,489, leaving an unfunded balance of $261,489. Funds have been
moved from Airport West Commerce Park to cover the unfunded balance. The Board approved the
total payment to FPL on January 27, 2009.
What was not included in this cost was the required relocation of the distribution lines, which are co -
located with the transmission lines. In the January 2009 packet from FPL, the Airport was advised
that the FPL Distribution Department would have to be contacted to determine what this separate
cost may be. A first cost estimate of $215,000 was received to include the distribution lines on the
poles with the transmission lines. In further discussions with the Airport's runway consultant, PBS&J,
a less expensive option was proposed that included undergrounding the distribution lines in the
immediate area of the runway and using existing poles north and south of the runway. To save time,
the runway contractor will install the conduit and pull boxes for FPL around the west side of the canal
adjacent to the west end of the runway. This additional work for the contractor will be included as a
change order, adding $50,738 to the runway construction cost. A 15 foot easement around the canal
would also be required. The cost from FPL went down to $75,287. Again, FPL is requiring an up
front payment prior to FPL initiating the project. The construction schedule for the distribution line

Memorandum
February 17, 2009
To: St. Lucie County Board of Commissioners
From: Shane Dewitt, Technical Operation Manager, SLCTV/FPTV
Subject: Cable Franchising & Renewals
Commissioners:
The adoption of a resolution to preserve PEG (Public, Educational & Government Access) Channels is needed.
The FCC has opened a case on preserving PEG channels as they have always been provided - and thwarting attempts by
AT&T, Comcast and other cable providers to make these channels hard to find (via several Internet web page menus),
hard to view (poor quality) and hard on the wallet (some people will have to pay to view them).
Comments from parties interested in the case are due March 9. It is important that the FCC get comments from many
municipalities (and others who use PEG channels). Otherwise, cable providers will claim that the lack of such comments
shows that keeping PEG channels viable is not important.
The FCC case combines the well-known case filed by Dearborn/Meridian Township about Comcast's providing PEG
channels only in digital format on channels in the 900 range and a case filed last month by the City of Lansing and one
filed by the Alliance for Community Media challenging AT&T's provision of PEG channels as Internet -style videos.
Municipalities should file comments with the FCC in order to preserve PEG channels.
I respectfully request that the St. Lucie County Board of Commissioners strongly encourage the preservation of PEG
channels with the adoption of Resolution No. 09-063. Let our voice be heard to the FCC and all parties interested.
Thank you and should you have any further questions you can contact me (xl869) or Ms. Heather Lueke of the
Attorney's Office at (x1421).
Sincerely,,-----.
