Executive Summary (General Business): This amendment proposes to change the development program in the DRI development order to delete 64,264 square feet of general commercial/retail use; and replace with 101 additional residential units and 103,005 square feet of office use. The 500,00 square feet of industrial is not proposed to change. The resulting change would amend the development program to be as follows: 3,001 residential units; 500,000 square feet of industrial; 86,736 square feet of commercial/retail; 174,105 square feet of office; 310 hotel rooms; 4 golf courses with accessory buildings and uses. The amendment also proposes to change language in Condition No. 45 of the development order regarding the conversion matrix. The conversion matrix allows land use conversions to place among the different uses in such a manner that would not result in an increase in traffic trips. Currently the condition allows the developer to implement the matrix through a PUD zoning. The City does not have any PUD zoning in its’ portion of the DRI. The amendment would allow the City and County staffs to utilize the matrix provided that there is mutual agreement. Any conversions would be required to be documented in the biennial report. The conversion matrix table is proposed to be expanded to include minimums and maximums for each use. The buildout date of the DRI is proposed to be extended to January 27, 2023, consistent with extensions previously filed with St. Lucie County. Other minor changes are proposed to delete references to agencies that are no longer involved in the DRI review process per State Statute and the change the annual report to the biennial report.
