Executive Summary (General Business): The City of Port St. Lucie received a request from Roberto Urbina of URB Design Group, LLC., agent for the property owner, Omega Baptist Church of Pentecost Inc., to rezone a 1.16-acre parcel from Institutional (I) zoning district to Professional (P) zoning district to be consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. The subject property is in Conversion Area 4 as identified in the adopted City of Port St. Lucie Conversion Area Manual. The properties that are within Conversion Area 4 have a future land use designation of ROI. In 2021, the City Council approved an amendment to the comprehensive plan that revised Policy 1.1.4.13 to remove the Institutional Zoning District as a compatible zoning designation within the ROI land use classification (P21-047). As a result, the subject property's land use and zoning are not compatible.
