Executive Summary: The City requests rezoning of two (2) parcels totaling 150.37 acres from the Utility (U) Zoning District and the St. Lucie County Agricultural-5 (AG-5) Zoning District to the Planned Industrial Park (PIP) Zoning District to implement the PIP Future Land Use designation and allow future business and industrial uses.
Presentation Information: Staff will provide a presentation.
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Board recommend approval of the rezoning.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Board amend the recommendation and recommend approval of the rezoning.
2. Move that the Board recommend denial of the rezoning and provide staff with direction.
Background: The PIP land use category was adopted in 2012 but has not been applied to any land in the City. The PIP land use contemplated PUD zoning however the City has now advanced a Planned Industrial Park (PIP) text amendment as a second implementing zoning district available for the PIP land use district. Establishing the PIP zoning district on this site will allow the City to activate the land use vision for the area by supporting a broad range of commercial and industrial uses including targeted industries, logistics, warehouse/distribution, research and development, and public facilities, with limited vertical workforce housing permitted in mixed employment centers and will support industrial growth within the northwest annexation area.
Issues/Analysis: The proposed rezoning to PIP will be consistent with the Planned Industrial Park (PIP) Future Land Use designation and provides the zoning needed to support industrial and employment-based development. The location is appropriate for long-term employment uses, and the request is compatible with the City’s overall economic development direction.
Special Consideration: The rezoning is dependent on the 2050 Comprehensive Plan Update redesignating the site from Light Industrial (LI) to Planned Industrial Park (PIP) and adoption of the concurrent PIP zoning text amendment.
Location of Project: The subject property is generally located south of Midway Road, northwest of Glades Cut-Off Road, immediately west of McCarty Road, and north of the City's Glades Wastewater Treatment Plant.
