Background:
In April 2007, the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners approved submission of its first grant
application to the Florida Department of Transportation's Safe Routes to School Program. Weatherbee
Elementary, located on Weatherbee Road between U.S. Highway 1 and Midway Road, has been determined by
the St. Lucie County School District to be its highest priority for a sidewalk (Attachment A). The school is in

THROUGH: Donald West, Public Works Director
FROM: Michael Powley, County Engineer ~ ~.7
DATE: December 15, 2009
SUBJECT: Rosarita Avenue in Paradise Park
ITEM NO. VII-A
Background:
Currently, Rosarita Avenue is an unimproved roadway extending east from 25th Street to the Fort
Pierce Farms Water Control District (FPFWCD) Canal No. 1. The right-of-way for this corridor is
25 feet wide and is aligned parallel to the north side of the South Florida Water Management
District (SFWMD) C-25 Canal in the Paradise Park subdivision.
Physical constraints, including the limited width of the right-of-way, transmission poles for Florida
Power and Light, their distribution poles on the opposite side of the road, and the C-25 canal bank
prohibit the construction of a two-lane road. In addition, limited sight distance at the intersection of
Rosarita Avenue and 25th Street, just north of the C-25 Canal bridge crossing, greatly restricts
safe turning movements for westbound traffic entering onto 25th Street. These two portions of
Rosarita Avenue are depicted on Graphic Nos. 1 and 2 in Attachment A. One-way and two-way
traffic are superimposed to depict the limited space available.
Construction is presently underway to improve the stormwater drainage system in Paradise Park.
This includes roadside swales along the north side of Rosarita Avenue that will result in additional
constraints on the right-of-way, precluding two-way traffic.
It is our intention that Rosarita Avenue between 25th Street and N. 17th Street be denoted as a
one-way (eastbound only) roadway and be signed and enforced as such. From N. 17th Street to
its eastern terminus at FPFWCD Canal No. 1, Rosarita Avenue will remain atwo-way roadway.
Please refer to Attachment B for a depiction of the proposed signage and limits of the restriction.
Ordinance 09-030 is presented as Attachment C. The stormwater ponds located along the north
side of the right-of-way east of N. 17th Street provide sufficient distance to maintain the existing
two-way travel configuration.
A meeting was held on November 5th in Conference Room 3 with the residents directly impacted
by this modification. Sixteen people attended. No real objections were received although a few
commented that a slightly longer drive for them would result.

Background
On September 24, 2009, the Planning and Zoning Commission unanimously recommended
approval of the petition of Thomas Morse for an amendment to the Official Zoning Atlas to
change the zoning from the IX (Industrial, Extraction) Zoning District to the AG 2.5 (Agriculture -

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 it is not in conflict
with the goals, objectives, and policies of the St. Lucie County Comprehensive Plan.
Recommendation

INTER-OFFICE MEMORANDUM
ST. LUCIE COUNTY, FLORIDA
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Daniel 5. McIntyre, County Attorney
C.A. NO.: 09-1379
DATE: October 27, 2009
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 09-022 -Roads, Parks and Public Buildings Impact
Fees
BACKGROUND:
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of a "Technical Memorandum on the Methods
Used to Calculate Consumption Based Road, Parks and Public Buildings Impact Fees" prepared
by James C. Nicholas, Ph.D. dated October 29, 2009. Also attached is a copy of draft
Ordinance No. 09-022 which reflects proposed changes to the code sections pertaining to
roads, parks and public buildings impact fees. The proposed changes are based on the
information contained in Dr. Nicholas' technical memorandum.
The County's current consumption based fees for roads, parks and public buildings have
not been revised for several years. State law requires that the calculation of impact fees be
based on the most recent and localized data. In addition, the law requires that notice be
provided no less than 90 days before the effective date of the ordinance. The proposed
effective date is April 1, 2010, for public building impact fees and a phased increase for roads
and parks impact fees - 50% on April 1, 2010 and an additional 50% on December 1, 2010.
The St. Lucie County Planning and Zoning Commission/Local Planning Agency considered
the proposed study and ordinance over several months. On August 20, 2009, the
Commission/Agency voted 4-2 to recommend that the Board approve the Updated Impact Fee
Methodology for Roads, Parks & Recreation, and Public Buildings and the accompanying rate
schedule ns reflected in Ordinance No. 09-022, based upon aggregated capital project lists for
roads, parks & recreation, and public buildings,
The first public hearing was held on October 20, 2009.
Notice of the second public hearing was published in the Tribune on December 1, 2009.
Dr. Nicholas will be present at the public hearing.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Board of County Commissioners
THROUGH: N/A
FROM: Mark Satterlee, AICP, Growth Management Director
DATE: December 15, 2009
SUBJECT: Savanna Club and Lennard Road
ITEM NO. VIII
Background:
This is a request from staff to initiate an eighth amendment to the Savanna Club Development of
Regional Impact (DRI) Development Order (82-058) for the realignment of Lennard Road. On
September 22, 2009, the Board had a discussion at the Informal Meeting regarding a possible
alternative to the currently required second entrance via Savanna Club Boulevard and the present
terminus at Port St. Lucie High School. The current alignment has been recognized for many years
and is a part of the original development order for the Savanna Club DRI. As the Savanna Club
has developed, the implementation of the overall Lennard Road plan has met with increasing
resistance from the Savanna Club residents.
Commissioner Coward has proposed a compromise to the original scope of the Lennard Road
project adjacent to the Savanna Club. At the September Informal Meeting, the Board appeared to
reach a consensus on the proposed compromise. Further, the compromise has been presented to
the Savanna Club residents who have agreed that it is preferable to the existing requirement. To
amend the development order, the Board should take formal action on agreeing to the proposed
realignment and authorize staff to initiate the amendment process. As seen in the attached maps,
the proposed change is to realign Lennard Road to construct a second entrance into the Savanna
Club via Bromeliad Circle. The approved development order calls for Lennard Road to extend from
Port St Lucie High School to Savanna Club Boulevard.
As the Savanna Club is a DRI, changes to the development order must be initiated through
consultation with the Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council (TCRPC). In preliminary
conversations with the TCRPC, it appears that the change may be processed relatively swiftly as
the proposed realignment does not impact any existing development or prevent the future
extension of the road along the original alignment. Staff at the TCRPC indicates that this
amendment may be accomplished via a letter request for concurrence of non substantive change.
