Executive Summary: The Port St. Lucie Governmental Finance Corporation, the City of Port St. Lucie, and the Tradition Commercial Association, Inc. have applied to amend the Tradition Commerce Park North MPUD. The Tradition Commerce Park was first approved in 2015 and has been amended three times. This application is associated with an application for a large scale comprehensive plan text amendment to amend Figure 1-4 of the Future Land Use Element (P24-065). Figure 1-4 is the conceptual land use plan for the Southern Grove NCD District. This application is also associated with an application to amend the Southern Grove DRI by amending the DRI master development maps, Map H and Map H-2 (P24-086). Both the amendment to Figure 1-4 and the amendment to Map H revised the land use sub-districts for approximately 226 acres of vacant land within the Tradition Commerce Park North MPUD from the Employment Center and Neighborhood/Village Commercial sub-districts to the Regional Business Center sub-district.
This application revises the Tradition Commerce Park MPUD to remove the 226 acres, more or less, from the Tradition Commerce Park MPUD. There is a separate application to rezone the 226 acres to a new MPUD to be known as Destination at Tradition MPUD (P24-099). To accommodate these changes, this application revises the Tradition Commerce Park MPUD boundary lines, concept plan, project maps, and project acreage. It also includes updates to the development entitlements and development standards as further described in the staff report.
Presentation Information: Staff will provide a presentation.
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Board recommend approval of the MPUD amendment.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Board amend the recommendation and recommend approval.
2. Move that the Board recommend denial.
Background: The Site Plan Review Committee recommended approval of the proposed MPUD document and concept plan at the July 24, 2024 Site Plan Review Committee meeting.
The comprehensive plan text amendment (P24-065) was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on July 2, 2024 and the Southern Grove DRI amendment (P24-086) was approved by the Planning and Zoning Board on August 6, 2024.
Issues/Analysis: The proposed MPUD is consistent with Policy 1.2.2.10 of the Future Land Use Element. Policy 1.2.2.10 establishes the standards for the Employment Center sub-district under the NCD future land use classification. Per Policy 1.2.2.10, Employment Centers shall be established to include office uses, medical uses, hospitals, industrial uses, warehouse/distribution, research and development, manufacturing, institutional uses, educational facilities including college, technical, or vocational schools (including dormitories), public facilities (including utilities), sports and recreation, retail, hotel, multi-family housing, and other similar uses and services to support the City’s targeted industries list and improve the economic vitality of the area. A minimum size of 50 acres is required to rezone land to an MPUD under the Employment Center sub-district classification. The Tradition Commerce Park North MPUD 4th Amendment is approximately 240 acres in size.
Special Consideration: N/A
Location of Project: The subject property is generally located west of Interstate 95, south of SW Discovery Way, east of SW Village Parkway and north of Marshall Parkway.
