Executive Summary (General Business): The Applicant, The City of Port St. Lucie, has applied for site plan approval to allow the construction of a new Police Training facility and an expanded Employee Wellness Health Center, as well as modifications to the circulation and provision of additional landscaping at the City Hall Complex. The additions will improve the capacity of the public facilities, which includes improvements to the Employee Health Center and training. The proposed site plan will add a new 39,030 square foot Police Training Facility: expand the existing Health Center by 1,550 square feet to 3,412 square feet; reconfigure the circulation to limit the access to the complex from Thanksgiving Street; and provide additional landscaping along Thanksgiving Street and adjacent to the Employee Health Center.
