Option Agreement for Sale and Purchase
BACK6ROVND:
The Harbor Branch project involves the acquisition of 268 acres. The project was initiated in 2006 at
the request of Senator Ken Pruitt. Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute (HBOI), due to financial
difficulties, planned to sell their undeveloped lands to a private developer. As nn alternative, Senator
Pruitt offered a plan to have Florida Atlantic University (FAU) expand its operations at the site to
include not only marine science education, but to also partner with HBOI in its research services. In
addition, the plan called for St. Lucie County to acquire the undeveloped Innds using Florida Communities
Trust grant funding.
The acquisition of the Innd will provide the following environmental benefits:
• The parcel to the West of U.S. Highway 1 connects to Indrio Savannas Preserve, a 297-
ncre conservation area owned by St. Lucie County. The acquisition with therefore
expand this conservation area.
• The two parcels between U.S. Highway and Old Dixie Highway contain the largest known
population of Lakelns Mint, an endangered species that grows naturally only in a 1.5
square mile area in northern St. Lucie County and southern Indian River County. The
acquisition with therefore conserve habitat for this endangered species.
• The Inrge parcel to the north of the FAU/HBOI operations area contains a large
wetland that has become disconnected from the Indian River Lagoon. Acquisition of
this parcel will allow the County to re-connect the wetland to the Lagoon, thereby
restoring the wetland's water filtering function and important foraging and nursery
habitat for numerous marine species.

SUBJECT: White Way Dairy Road
ITEM NO. VI-C2
Background:
During a routine culvert inspection after Tropical Storm Fay last year, it was observed that the three 84-
inch culverts at the White Way Dairy Road crossing of 5-Mile Creek had deteriorated significantly. As
there were no construction funds available, the County retained the services of Miller-Legg to develop a
plan to sleeve the existing pipes in order to maintain the integrity of the crossing. This design work is
rapidly nearing completion. It is vitally important for this construction to be completed before the 2009
hurricane season becomes active. It is our request to utilize emergency bidding procedures along with
the Local Preference Ordinance to hire a contractor for this work. We will return to the Board for
permission to award the project to the lowest responsible bidder. The source of the construction funds
will be identified at that time.
Recommendation:
Board authorization to declare an emergency at the White Way Dairy Road crossing of 5-Mile Creek and
utilize emergency bidding procedures along with the Local Preference Ordinance.

DATE: May 19, 2009
SUBJECT: Runway Rehabilitation Grant Application
ITEM NO. VI-G
Background:
Runway 9/27 is the primary runway for St. Lucie County International Airport. It is 6,492 feet in length
and 150 feet wide. In 1986, the original 5,000 foot-long Runway 9/27 was given a mill and overlay. In
1989, the runway was extended 1,500 feet to the west at a width of 150 feet.
In October 2007, a pavement inspection was conducted by the Florida Department of Transportation
(FDOT). The inspection results showed that Runway 9/27 is in poor to very poor condition. It has been
20 years since the runway was last milled and paved and the pavement has reached its.useful life. In
February 2009, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) advised that only 100 feet of the runway width
would be eligible for funding based on the size and type of aircraft using the airfield. FDOT has agreed
to cover the cost of the remaining 50 foot width so that the total 150 foot width of the runway will be
rehabilitated.
The requested grant funding for this project was approved by the Board under the FY2008 and FY2009
Capital Budget Plan. The table below shows the projected breakdown of the total project cost. The
FDOT amount includes a 2.5% match for the amount being paid by FAA and 80% of the costs
associated with paving the additional 50 foot runway width.
Pro~ected FAA Grant FDOT Grant Local Match Projected Total Cost
$3,804,318 $272,182 $68,045 $4,144,545
Recommendation
Board authorization to submit a grant application to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to
construct the runway rehabilitation project at the St. Lucie County International Airport for a cost not to
exceed $4,144,545.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Mark Satterlee, AICP, Growth Management Director
DATE: May 19, 2009
SUBJECT: Seahorse Beach Bungalows Conditional Use
ITEM NO. VII-B
Background:
The Seahorse Beach Bungalows is a 13-unit apartment conditional use on North Hutchinson Island that
exceeds the currently allowed density. The use consists of two buildings sitting on 0.43 acres of land.
Current density would permit only 2 residential units. The buildings were being reconstructed in 2004
and were subsequently damaged in the hurricanes that year.
The subject property has been used as a hotel for many years and its original construction pre-
dates much of the Land Development Code (LDC). The property owner applied for and
received numerous permits to reconstruct the buildings in 2004. The structures were also
damaged during that hurricane season. The structures were rebuilt in the same footprint as the
existing structure. The primary difference is that one of rebuilt structures now has a pitched roof
that meets hurricane code versus the original building that had a flat roof. No new units were
added and no new habitable square footage was created during the renovation project.
Several individuals appealed the County's issuance of building permits for the rebuilding to the
Board of Adjustment. The appeal was based on the petitioners' assertion that issuance of the
building permits effectively allowed the total reconstruction of a nonconforming structures and
use. The BOA found that staff had acted properly in issuing the permits. The same individuals
appealed that decision to the 19`t' Circuit Court. The Court reviewed the County action in
approving reconstruction of the conditional use and found that the County properly allowed
reconstruction but failed to fully follow proper procedure.
The Court found that the "...property is grandfathered into HIRD as a legally conforming use
pursuant to...the LDC. Based upon...the LDC, a legally conforming use under Section 3.01.03
is considered a conforming use and a conditional use under the LDC."
In the Court's reading of the LDC, it found that the amount of work done to repair and upgrade
the building was in excess of what should have been approved administratively by the Building
Official. This approval process was never at issue prior to the Court reviewing the case. Rather,
all the approvals had been issued as building permits by the Building Official.

DATE: May 19, 2009
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 09-013 amending the St. Lucie County Land Development Code (LDC) to
correct inconsistencies, minor errors and omissions in the existing version of the code.
ITEM NO. VII-C
Background:
On March 18, 2008, the Board of County Commissioners accepted a proposal from Municipal Code
Corporation for publication of the LDC. Growth Management has received a draft of the St. Lucie
County LDC from Municipal Code Corporation. Staff has reviewed the draft and found it to be
consistent with the existing version of the LDC and incorporates all adopted ordinances to date.
In preparing the existing text and adopted ordinances for publication through Municipal Code
Corporation, Growth Management and other participating departments identified numerous errors
contained within the current version of the LDC. These errors include items such as incorrect
department or staff titles, inconsistent formatting and incorrect section numbers. The correction of these
errors is considered non-substantive. The changes necessary to correct the existing non-substantive
errors will be completed through Ordinance No. 09-013.
These changes are attached to Ordinance No. 09-013 as Exhibits A, B and C. Exhibit A includes
changes that have been included in the draft LDC, while Exhibit B includes further changes needed to
correct errors in the current draft.
Exhibit C contains items discussed during the Planning and Zoning Commission review as well as the
BOCC's first required hearing.
These items have been reviewed and are as follows:
1) The Planning and Zoning Commission requested that the quality of graphics throughout the text be
improved for clarity. Staff has prepared a spreadsheet of the graphics that are being reviewed and
are working with Municode to improve the legibility of these items.
2) Page 7:46 - BOCC questioned removal of paragraph 11. This paragraph was removed from the
LDC through Ordinance 05-023, which also added section 7.05.04, Sidewalks and Bikeways, with
more stringent requirements
3) Page 7:66 -Staff had suggested changing "width" to "size". This change will not be made as it is
considered a substantive change.

Growth Management Department
DATE: May 19, 2009
SUBJECT: Ordinance No, 09-012 accepting the draft St. Lucie County Land Development Code
(LDC) received from Municipal Code Corporation (Municode) as the official Land
Development Code of St. Lucie County.
ITEM NO. VII-D
Background:
In addition to adopting Ordinance 09-013 to correct non-substantive errors in the LDC prior to Municode
publication, it is also advised that Ordinance 09-012 be adopted officially recognizing the "Municode"
edition as the official version of the St. Lucie County Land Development Code.
As stated with the companion ordinance, this official version will contain the correction of numerous
errors staff has noted in the code recently and over the years.
The benefits of conversion to the Municode version are numerous, and include:
* Municode is the current industry standard for code publication in the State of Florida. Most of the
city and county codes in Florida are published by Municode. As such, most people familiar with
using codes know to look on the Municode website before contacting the local jurisdiction for
copies of ordinances.
* Creation of a standardized code that will be maintained and updated on a regular basis.
Municode will issue the County 50 code binders that will be updated on a quarterly basis. The
quarterly updates will be issued for all 50 editions. The 50 binders will be issued to the Board,
Administration, Planning & Zoning members, and numerous County staff.
* The code will be available and maintained on-line. Further, new adopted ordinances will be
available on-line shortly after being transmitted to Municode -versus the hard copies of new
ordinances which will be provided quarterly.
All of the above will dramatically reduce the incorrect versions of the Land Development Code being in
circulation. It will also eliminate the sporadic and/or inconsistent updating of all codes.
Recommendation
Board approval of Ordinance 09-012.

FROM: James B. OppenbolVFS`, Manne Resource Coordinator

DATE: May 6, 2005
SUBJECT: Artificial reef deployment
ITEM NO. II
Background:
The St. Lucie County Artificial Reef Program will make 3 artificial reef deployments this summer with the
assistance of a supplemental $33,990 Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC)
artificial reef construction grant, a $10,000 FishAmerica Foundation (FAF) grant and $7,010 in Erosion
District funds.
St. Lucie County's artificial reef contractor has offered to deploy artificial reefs for the County at a rate of
$17,000 per bargeload of secondary concrete (nominal weight = 500 tons per bargeload).
FWC personnel have indicated that there could be as much as $60,000 left from the 2008-9 artificial reef
construction grant cycle that would need to be spent before August 31, 2009. Because St. Lucie County
already has stockpiled enough materials for 4 additional deployments this summer, any additional FWC
funding would likely go to St. Lucie County.
Approval of Work Authorization No. 2 would allow St. Lucie County to take advantage of additional FWC
funding should it become available later in the summer.
.Recommendation:
Board approval of Work Authorization No. 2 for the deployment of artificial reefs and authorization for
the Chair to sign documents as approved by the County Attorney.
