body
Submitted By: Bridget Kean, AICP, Deputy Director Planning and Zoning
Strategic Plan Link: The City's Goal of planning for a thriving future.
Executive Summary (General Business): The proposed Tradition SG-8 Preliminary and Final Subdivision Plat is a replat of Tracts B1 and C1, Kenley Subdivision Plat. The application is associated with the site plan for Tradition SG- 8 Commercial that provides for a 136,789 square foot home improvement store for a future Lowes and a 5,915 square foot convenience store and gas facility for a future Wawa at the corner of Becker Road and SW Village Parkway along with associated parking and other site improvements (P23-106). The proposed subdivision plat creates separate parcels for the Lowes, Wawa, and five outparcels. The plat also includes a replat of the parcel to the north (Tract B-1, Kenley Subdivision Plat) that is owned by Mattamy Palm Beach, LLC, because the southern portion of the tract (4327-702-0015-010-2) was deeded by Mattamy Palm Beach, LLC, to Banyan SG8, LLC, for the northern driveway into the Lowes shopping center. There will be a traffic signal at the northern driveway as set forth in the Traffic Signal Agreement among Mattamy Palm Beach, LLC, the Port St. Lucie Governmental Finance Corporation, and the City of Port St. Lucie.
An application has been submitted for a site plan amendment to the Tradition SG-8 Commercial site plan to add the northern driveway to the Lowe’s parcel and to remove the Wawa and the outparcels from the site plan (P23-106 A1). This will enable each parcel, including Lowe’s and Wawa, to have separate site plans instead of one master site plan for all parcels. This does require the submittal of a separate minor site plan for the proposed Wawa convenience store and gas facility. The site plan amendment for Tradition SG-8 Commercial (P23-106 A-1) will need to be approved prior to the submittal of a request for a building permit for the Lowe’s Home Improvement Store and a separate minor site plan for the Wawa convenience store and gas facility will need to be submitted and approved prior to the submittal of a building permit for the Wawa convenience store and gas facility.
Presentation Information: Staff may provide a short presentation.
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Council approve the subdivision plat as recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee and with the following conditions:
1. The application for a minor site plan (P23-106 A-1) to amend the existing Tradition SG-8 Commercial site plan to add the northern driveway to the Home Improvement parcel and to remove the Wawa and the other outparcels from the Tradition SG-8 Commercial site plan shall be approved by the Site Plan Review Committee prior to the submittal of a request for compliance for a building permit for the Lowe’s Home Improvement Store.
2. A separate application for minor site plan approval for the Wawa convenience store and gas facility shall be submitted and approved by the Site Plan Review Committee prior to the submittal of a request for compliance for a building permit for the Wawa Convenience Store and Gas facility.
3. Staff and City Attorney’s Office must review the signed mylar prior to the plat being recorded. Failure to provide a signed mylar in a timely manner may result in the title certification/title report exceeding sixty days old and may require providing the City Attorney’s Office with an updated title report and recompleting the title certification.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Council amend the recommendation and approve the subdivision plat subject to the conditions noted above.
2. Move that the Council not approve and provide staff direction.
Background: The Site Plan Review Committee recommended approval of the proposed preliminary and final subdivision plat at the November 13, 2024, Site Plan Review Committee meeting.
Issues/Analysis: The subdivision plat includes a cross access or ingress/egress easement over all the driveways and along the main drive aisle of the Home Improvement parcel (Lowe’s) to provide internal access for the outparcels and the parcel to the north in accordance with the approved access plan for the Tradition SG 8 MPUD. The plat also includes landscape buffer easements along the frontage of all parcels along SW Village Parkway and Becker Road to accommodate the perimeter landscape buffer requirements for the Lowe’s and Wawa site plan.
