body
Submitted By: Bridget Kean, AICP, Senior Planner
Strategic Plan Link: The City’s Mission to plan for smart and balanced growth.
Executive Summary (General Business): The Port St. Lucie Governmental Finance Corporation (GFC) has submitted an application for site plan approval for a proposed 168,000 square foot warehouse building and associated on site and off site improvements. The proposed building will be located on Lot 2, Southern Grove Plat No. 33, and the developer is the Sansone Group, LLC. The site is within the area known as Legacy Park and the proposed warehouse building is immediately south of the Fed Distribution Center that is under construction on Lot 1, Southern Grove Plat No. 33 (P20-181).
Presentation Information: Staff may provide a short presentation.
Staff Recommendation: Move that the Council approve the site plan as recommended by the Site Plan Review Committee.
Alternate Recommendations:
1. Move that the Council amend the recommendation and approve the site plan.
2. Move that the Council not approve the site plan and provide staff direction.
Background: The Site Plan Review Committee recommended approval of the proposed site plan at their meeting on May 12, 2021.
Issues/Analysis: The proposed project is located within the Southern Grove DRI. As stated in the Citywide Design Standards, the project is exempt from the citywide design standards because it is located within a master planned community that adopted other design standards with its inception. The applicant is in the process of applying to the Tradition Design Review Committee for preliminary approval of the building elevations. The project has not been reviewed by the Tradition Design Review Committee at this time. The applicant is requesting the site plan be reviewed/approved by City Council prior to receiving approval by the Tradition Design Review Committee. The Tradition Design Review Committee reviews and approves the site plan, the landscape plan, and the building elevations for development in Tradition. Although the City does not enforce Tradition’s Design Standards, staff generally recommends applicants obtain Tradition Design Review Committee approval prior to City Council approval to avoid any conflicts. The applicant will obtain approval by the Tradition Design Review Committee prior to final approval of the construction plans by the Site Plan Review Committee.
