STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends future land use change on the property from General Institutional to Limited Commercial future land use. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The application is for a Future Land Use Map (FLUM) change from General Institutional to a more appropriate land use designation, on a Martin County- owned parcel, located east of Savannah Road in Jensen Beach. This site was the former Fire Station 10 property and it is shown below, highlighted in blue (Figure 1). Figure 1 On June 7, 2016, this former Fire Station 10 property was declared to be surplus property by the Board of County Commissioners. On September 12, 2017, the Board of County Commissioners reviewed the list of surplus properties and directed the staff to initiate an appropriate change of the land use and zoning on the former fire station property. The current future land use designation of the site, General Institutional, permits very few uses by private property owners. This staff report will consider potential future land use designations consistent with the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP) and compatible with the surrounding 7 of 246 Page 3 of 16 properties. The staff analysis will consider the Commercial Office/ Residential, Limited Commercial and General Commercial future land use designations. 1. PROJECT/SITE SUMMARY 1.1. Physical/Site Summary The subject property is 0.34 acre (14,810 sq. ft.). According to the Martin County Property Appraiser’s records, the 2,374 sq. ft. fire station was constructed in 1976. A 483 sq. ft. addition was constructed in 1996. NE Samaritan St. has a 50-ft. right-of-way. The parcel is within the following: Planning District: North County. Adjacent Planning District: Stuart Urban. Commission District: District 1. Taxing District: District 1 Municipal Service Taxing Unit. 1.2 Major Roadways The major roadways closest to the subject parcel are NE Savannah Road, which is 300 feet west of the parcel, NE Jensen Beach Boulevard, which is 1 mile north of the parcel and NW Federal Hwy (US-1), which is 2 miles west from the parcel. 1.3. Current Amendment Requests CPA 18-3, Pineland Prairie FLUM: A request to change the future land use designation from Industrial (502 acres) and Agricultural Ranchette (2,909 acres) to a new future land use designation, Mixed-Use Village on land located west of the Florida Turnpike and south of the St. Lucie County boundary, and a concurrent request to change the zoning from AR-5A, A-2 and LI to a new zoning district, Planned Mixed-Use Village. CPA 18-4, Pineland Prairie Text: A request to amend the text of the CGMP that includes the creation of a new future land use, Mixed-Use Village, an alteration of the Primary Urban Service District on Figure 4-2, and a change to Figure 11-1, Areas Currently Served by Regional Utilities. CPA 18-5, Berry Retail FLUM: A request to change the future land use designation on 7.24 acres: Parcels 1 & 4 from Commercial Office/ Residential to Limited Commercial; Parcel 2 from Rural Density to General Commercial; and Parcel 3 from Commercial Office/Residential to General Commercial, & a concurrent request to re-zone Parcels 1 & 4 from COR -1 to LC; Parcel 3 from COR-1 to GC; Parcel 2 from A-1 to GC. CPA 18-9, Reserve Area No.1, Plat of Leilani Heights Phase 1: A request to change the future land use designation on a 3.4 acre property from Low Density Residential to the most appropriate future land use designation. It was declared as surplus property by the Board of Commissioners, like the Firestation 10 property. 8 of 246 Page 4 of 16 1.4. Past Changes in Future Land Use Designations There have been few changes in the surrounding area. Since adoption of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan in 1982, only two amendments to the FLUM have occurred in the immediate area. See Figure 2. The two amendments are summarized below. A. CPA 2002-6, IBSCO changed the future land use from Low Density Residential to Industrial on 3.64 acres located northwest of Savannah Road. B. CPA 2003-5, Rio Industrial Center changed the future land use from General Commercial to Industrial on 9.78 acres located on N.E. Dixie Highway. Figure 2 1.5. Adjacent Future Land Use North: Commercial General. South: Mobile Home. East: Commercial Office/Residential. West: Commercial Office/Residential. 1.6. Environmental Considerations 1.6.1. Wetlands, soils and hydrology The soil on the site is Jonathan soil, according to South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). See figure 3. A survey from United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) states: “The Jonathan series consists of very deep, moderately well to somewhat excessively drained, very slowly or slowly permeable soils on slightly elevated knolls and ridges in flatwoods areas of the Lower Coastal Plains of Florida. They formed in thick beds of sandy marine sediments. Near the type location, the mean annual temperature is about 73 degrees F., and the mean annual The highlighted blue is the Firestation 10 property The highlighted parcels in white are the two amended parcels 9 of 246 Page 5 of 16 precipitation is about 57 inches. Slope ranges from 0 to 5 percent” (National Cooperative Soil Survey, May 2004). Figure 3 The property is 300 feet from Warner creek. The composite wetlands map shows a very low probability of wetlands on the site. See figure 4. Figure 4 1.6.2. Wellfield protection The following is a description of the presence of existing wellfields proximate to the site and applicable wellfield protection measures. The property is approximately 50 feet from wellfield protection zone 1. The site is within wellfield protection zone 2. See Figure 5. The site is highlighted with a black border. 10 of 246 Page 6 of 16 Figure 5 The project will be evaluated for wellfield requirements during the County’s Development Review process. If groundwater or surface water withdrawals are proposed for irrigation, then the applicant will be required to submit additional information at the development review stage and submit a South Florida Water Management District Water Use Permit. 1.7. Adjacent Existing Uses Below is a summary of the existing adjacent land uses in the general vicinity of the subject property: North – 1.9 acres of vacant land owned by Pinelake Village, Inc. and a 0.76 acre lot owned by Cumberland Farms. South – Unplatted Tropical Acres Mobile Home park (15 acres and 118 home sites) East – vacant 0.43 acre lot West - vacant 0.43 acre lot 2. ANALYSIS 2.1. Criteria for a Future Land Use Amendment (Section 1-11 CGMP) In evaluating each Future Land Use Map amendment request or a text amendment request which changes an allowable use of land for a specific parcel, staff begins with the assumption that the Future Land Use Map, as amended, is generally an accurate representation of the intent of the Board of County Commissioners, and thus the community, for the future of Martin County. Based on this assumption, staff can recommend approval of a requested change provided it is consistent with all other elements of this Plan and at least one of the following three situations has been demonstrated by the applicant to exist. If staff cannot make a positive finding regarding any of the items in (a) through (c), along with a determination of consistency with all Plan goals, objectives, and policies and the requirements of this chapter, staff shall recommend denial. (a) Past changes in land use designations in the general area make the proposed use logical and consistent with these uses and adequate public services are available and growth in 11 of 246 Page 7 of 16 the area – in terms of development of vacant land, redevelopment and availability of public services – has altered the character of the area such that the proposed request is now reasonable and consistent with area land use characteristics; or There have been only two changes in land use designation in the immediate area. Development on the lands in the immediate area has been consistent with the adopted Future Land Use Map. (b) The proposed change would correct an inappropriately assigned land use designation; or Yes, it would. Institutional future land use designations are appropriate for government ownership. Upon sale of the property, the Institutional General future land use designation would be inappropriate for most private property owners. Even though the original land use designation was not inappropriate at the time the site was used for a fire station, currently the property is vacant and is surplus county property, declared by the Board. Therefore, a change in the future land use would permit use of the property by a private entity. It would also make the site more consistent with the surrounding properties on Samaritan Street. (c) The proposed change is a County initiated amendment that would correct a public facility deficiency in a County facility that provides for the health, safety or general welfare of County residents and cannot otherwise be adequately provided in a cost effective manner at locations where the proposed land use is currently consistent with the CGMP. Not applicable. The property is County owned and declared as surplus property. The Martin County Board of Commissioners initiated the future land use amendment. However, it would not correct a public facility deficiency. 2.2. Urban Sprawl Florida Statute 163.3177(3)(a)9. states that any amendment to the future land use element shall discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl and provides thirteen indicators to judge whether a future land use amendment discourages the proliferation of urban sprawl. Urban sprawl is defined as a development pattern characterized by low density, automobile- dependent development with either a single use or multiple uses that are not functionally related, requiring the extension of public facilities and services in an inefficient manner, and failing to provide a clear separation between urban and rural uses. Florida Statute provides an additional eight criteria, of which four must be met, in order to judge whether an amendment can be determined to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl. An evaluation of the thirteen indicators for urban sprawl and a determination on the eight criteria for this future land use request follows: (I) Promotes, allows, or designates for development substantial areas of the jurisdiction to develop as low-intensity, low-density, or single-use development or uses. No, the site is integrated within the urban areas. The site and the proposed change do not promote areas to develop as low-intensity or encourage urban sprawl. Criterion met. 12 of 246 Page 8 of 16 (II) Promotes, allows, or designates significant amounts of urban development to occur in rural areas at substantial distances from existing urban areas while not using undeveloped lands that are available and suitable for development. No, this site is within the Primary Urban Service District. Criterion met. (III) Promotes, allows, or designates urban development in radial, strip, isolated, or ribbon patterns generally emanating from existing urban developments. No, the site is integrated within residential and urban areas and the proposed change will not promote to development occurring in such patterns. Criterion met. (IV) Fails to adequately protect and conserve natural resources, such as wetlands, floodplains, native vegetation, environmentally sensitive areas, natural groundwater aquifer recharge areas, lakes, rivers, shorelines, beaches, bays, estuarine systems, and other significant natural systems. No, the site was previously developed; it does not appear to contain any wetlands and contains only 14,810 square feet. However, the site is within wellfield protection zone 2 and may be within an aquifer recharge area. Criterion met. (V) Fails to adequately protect adjacent agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, active agricultural and silvicultural activities, passive agricultural activities, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. No, this site is within the primary urban service district. Criterion met. (VI) Fails to maximize use of existing public facilities and services. No, the proposed change would encourage the redevelopment of the site and use existing public facilities and services. Criterion met. (VII) Fails to maximize use of future public facilities and services. No, the proposed change would encourage the redevelopment of the site and maximize the use of future public facilities and services. Criterion met. (VIII) Allows for land use patterns or timing which disproportionately increase the cost in time, money, and energy of providing and maintaining facilities and services, including roads, potable water, sanitary sewer, stormwater management, law enforcement, education, health care, fire and emergency response, and general government. No, this site has adequate utilities, water/sewer systems and will not demand an extra increase in cost/time towards that. Criterion met. (IX) Fails to provide a clear separation between rural and urban uses. No, this site does not fail to do that. Criterion met. (X) Discourages or inhibits infill development or the redevelopment of existing neighborhoods and communities. No, this site is infill development. Criterion met. (XI) Fails to encourage a functional mix of uses. No, the proposed change does not fail to encourage a functional mix of uses. The site is located in an urban area in proximity to other commercial lands and nearby residential lands. Criterion met. 13 of 246 Page 9 of 16 (XII) Results in poor accessibility among linked or related land uses. No, this site does not result in poor accessibility, it provides good accessibility. The proposed change will not result in changes to the road network and proposes commercial land in proximity to other commercial lands. Criterion met. (XIII) Results in the loss of significant amounts of functional open space. No, the site is already developed and will not result in any loss of public open space. Criterion met. The site complies with all 13 sprawl criteria listed above. 2.2.1. Proliferation of Urban Sprawl In order for the application to be determined to discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl, the amendment must incorporate development patterns or urban forms that achieve four or more of the following: (I) Directs or locates economic growth and associated land development to geographic areas of the community in a manner that does not have an adverse impact on and protects natural resources and ecosystems. Yes, the natural resources and ecosystems are not negatively impacted due to this site. The proposed change would locate commercial development in the Primary Urban Service District and in proximity to other commercial lands. Redevelopment of the site will not impact existing habitat. Criterion met. (II) Promotes the efficient and cost-effective provision or extension of public infrastructure and services. Redevelopment of this site will not require the extension of public infrastructure and services outside the Primary Urban Service District. The proposed amendment would allow for a cost- effective development process, utilizing already existing public infrastructure and services. Criterion met. (III) Promotes walkable and connected communities and provides for compact development and a mix of uses at densities and intensities that will support a range of housing choices and a multimodal transportation system, including pedestrian, bicycle, and transit, if available. The Commercial Office/Residential future land use would permit either office development or housing in a walkable distance from other Commercial Office/Residential lands. The proposed amendment may allow residents within the nearby community to access retail/commercial at a walking distance. However, the proposed changes are not significant enough to impact transit and housing. Criterion met. (IV) Promotes conservation of water and energy. Yes, this site will promote that. Redevelopment of this existing site will not require the extension of public infrastructure and services outside the Primary Urban Service District. The site is only 0.34 acres, and future developments to it will not result in overconsumption of water and energy. Criterion met. (V) Preserves agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. Yes, this site will not hinder such activities. Criterion met. 14 of 246 Page 10 of 16 (VI) Preserves open space and natural lands and provides for public open space and recreation needs. Yes, this site will do that. The site is already developed and will not impact natural lands. Redevelopment of this existing site will not result in any loss of public open space. Criterion met. (VII) Creates a balance of land uses based upon demands of residential population for the nonresidential needs of an area. Redevelopment of a 0.34 acre site for commercial or residential purposes will not have a substantial change in the balance of land uses. Not applicable criterion. (VIII) Provides uses, densities, and intensities of use and urban form that would remediate an existing or planned development pattern in the vicinity that constitutes sprawl or if it provides for an innovative development pattern such as transit-oriented developments or new towns as defined in s. 163.3164. Not applicable. The proposed future land use designation will allow intensities of use and urban form that are consistent with the existing and planned development pattern in the vicinity. However, it does not constitute sprawl because it is located well within the Primary Urban Service District and is consistent with the adopted Future Land use map. The proposed change does not involve development patterns for new towns defined in s. 163.3164. Of the eight criteria listed above, six of the criteria have been met to determine the application discourages urban sprawl. 2.3 Land Use Compatibility The Board initiated request is for a Future Land Use Map change on the former Firestation 10 parcel. Currently it is General Institutional, and the Board is requesting a future land use change to the most appropriate future land use designation. The following analysis will consider three potential future land use designations: Commercial General, Limited Commercial and Commercial Office/Residential development. Currently, Samaritan Street is a dead end street without much foot traffic. The only active site is the Cumberland farm store opposite to the former Firestation property, which has been vacant and unused for years. There are two parcels next to the site, one on each site, but they are currently undeveloped lots. The lack of foot traffic and the vacant status of the former fire station building are also contributing to illegal dumping of waste materials throughout the street, observed and noted by Martin County staff. Changing the parcel to a General Commercial or Limited Commercial would increase pedestrian activity and foot traffic, and could alleviate the current problems. The General Commercial or Limited Commercial future land use designations would be compatible with the General Commercial lands to the north that are currently developed as a convenient store and gas station. In contrast, the Commercial Office/Residential designation is assigned to the parcels on the east and west of the subject site. 15 of 246 Page 11 of 16 Implementing commercial future land use The CGMP states the following regarding implementing commercial future land use designations. Objective 4.10B. To consider the space requirements and location of commercial development and its impact on a community when assigning commercial future land use designations. Policy 4.10B.1. Criteria for commercial land use designation. The following criteria, at a minimum, shall be used for assigning a commercial land use designation at a given location on the Future Land Use Map: (1) Trip generation characteristics; impact on existing and planned transportation facilities; and ability to achieve functional internal circulation and a landscaped parking area. (2) Specific needs of commercial activities, such as market area, anticipated employment generation and floor area requirements. (3) Compatibility with and impact on other surrounding commercial activities. (4) Relationship to surrounding land uses and natural systems. (5) Impact on existing and planned community services and utilities. Policy 4.10B.2. Criteria for siting commercial development. Commercial development shall be strategically directed to areas best able to accommodate its specific requirements of land area, site, public facilities and market location. The aim is to promote efficient traffic flow along thoroughfares, achieve orderly development and minimize adverse impacts on residential quality. Below are descriptions from the CGMP of each potential future land use designation, extracted from Policy 4.13A.8, CGMP, Martin County, Fla. (2017) 1) Commercial General Land Use (GC): The General Commercial areas are designated on the Future Land Use Map to accommodate general retail sales and services; highway-oriented sales and services; commercial amusement; and trade and warehousing facilities. These areas are principally located in highly accessible parts of the urban service district that are compatible with the unique location and market requirements of these uses. The sites are located on major or minor arterials and require a minimum net lot size of 10,000 square feet. The FAR shall be governed by the parking standards of the Land Development Regulations. Maximum densities for hotel/motel units located in a General Commercial future land use designation shall be 20 units per gross acre. Maximum building coverage shall be 60 percent. Minimum open space shall be 20 percent. Maximum building height shall be 40 feet. The Land Development Regulations implementing the General Commercial future land use designation shall be consistent with the development standards described above. This area is not intended to accommodate businesses, trades or services that generate significant nuisance impacts, including glare, smoke or other air pollutants; noise; vibration; major fire hazards; need for extensive outside storage and display; or other impacts associated with more intensive industrial uses. Automotive sales and services shall be located in the General Commercial land 16 of 246 Page 12 of 16 use classification on sites appropriately designated for highway-oriented commercial uses in the Land Development Regulations. The areas designated for General Commercial development are specifically not adapted to permanent residential housing, and such uses shall be located in other areas designated for residential development. On the other hand, transient residential facilities including hotels and motels, timesharing or fractional fee residential complexes, or other transient quarters should be located in areas designated for commercial use. Areas planned for mixed-use developments as allowed under Goal 4.3 are considered compatible for mixed use. The General Commercial site should generally be removed from single-family residential development and able to be buffered and screened consistent with the Land Development Regulations requiring appropriate landscaping and screening. Screening shall include vegetative berms (where feasible), plant material and/or aesthetic decorative fences or walls to assure compatibility with less intensive uses existing or anticipated on adjacent sites. The General Commercial land use allows general retail sales and services. The Martin County Land Development Regulations (LDR) explains what that entails. Pursuant to Section 3.3, LDR, Martin County, Fla. (2017) Retail sales and services, general: Retail sale or rental from the premises of goods and/or services and highway-oriented sales and services that generally cater to a market area in excess of three miles, excluding establishments with significant wholesaling, warehousing, or outside storage and distribution functions and excluding pain management clinics. 2) Limited Commercial Land Use (LC): Limited Commercial development is allocated to commercial sites accessible to major thoroughfares near residential neighborhoods. The scale and intensity of commercial uses in Limited Commercial areas shall be compatible with adjacent residential neighborhoods. Sites in this designation are intended for shops with limited inventory of goods as well as transient lodging facilities consistent with the CGMP and the Land Development Regulations. This designation is not generally intended to accommodate residential development. Duly approved residential uses existing at the effective date of the CGMP shall be considered permitted uses. Areas designated for Limited Commercial development are not intended to accommodate large-scale retail sales, service or trade activities that generally serve a larger market area. Such stores would usually require a larger floor area, carry a relatively larger inventory and require a substantially greater parking area. Land Development Regulations implementing the Limited Commercial future land use designation shall be consistent with these development standards. Minimum net lot sizes shall be 10,000 square feet. FAR shall be governed by the parking standards of the Land Development Regulations. Maximum densities for hotel/motel units shall be 20 units per gross acre. Maximum building coverage shall be 50 percent. Minimum open space shall be 30 percent. Maximum building height shall be 30 feet. The Limited Commercial land use allows limited retail sales and services. The Martin County Land Development Regulations (LDR) explains what that entails. 17 of 246 Page 13 of 16 Pursuant to Section 3.3, LDR, Martin County, Fla. (2017) Retail sales and services, limited: Shops and stores limited to retail sales of convenience items or services typically needed on a frequently reoccurring basis, excluding pain management clinics. This definition includes shops with: l. Limited inventory; 2. A household market area in the immediate vicinity; 3. A specialized market with customized service demand; or 4. A tourist-oriented market area in the immediate vicinity. 3) Commercial Office/Residential development (COR) Development in the Commercial Office/Residential future land use designation shall be restricted to professional and business offices, limited service establishments, financial institutions, live-work units, residential development or any combination of these uses. Freestanding retail sales and service establishments shall be excluded from these areas. However, restaurants, certain service commercial uses, and limited commercial uses, as identified in the Land Development Regulations, may occupy 25 percent of the commercial square footage in a building. COR can be considered as a possible option, especially since both of the empty lots adjacent to the parcel are also COR. However, the COR Future Land Use does not allow freestanding retail sales and service establishments, unlike General Commercial or Limited Commercial. Final Analysis It is important to note that the property is only 0.34 acres. Due to the small size of the site, large scale or intense commercial usage will not be feasible, regardless of the future land use designation it will receive. Residential usage will be compatible to the neighboring mobile homes, and may be an option if the site is changed to COR. However, only a maximum of 10 residential units per acre are allowed, according to the CGMP, Chapter 4. Since this site is only 0.34 acres, only a maximum of 3 units will be allowed (3.4 units, to be exact). Due to this, the site will be utilized for commercial use (commercial office) rather than residential use. Therefore, converting the site to Limited Commercial would be an appropriate amendment. And unlike COR future land use, Limited Commercial allows retail sales and commercial activity, but with less intensity compared to Commercial General. The LC future land use allows commercial use. However, more intense commercial uses permitted in GC future land use are not permitted in LC future land use, thereby providing transition between the Mobile Home Park and the more intense commercial uses to the north. The scale and intensity of commercial uses in Limited Commercial areas shall be compatible with adjacent residential neighborhoods, as stated in the CGMP. The LC would also limit the intensity of uses within well field protection zone 2 and close to well field protection zone 1. It will limit potential negative effects that higher intensity commercial land use may bring, decreasing the risk of environmental issues. LC future land use would be the more appropriate designation for this parcel, rather than General Commercial, considering the site’s proximity to 18 of 246 Page 14 of 16 Mobile Home Density Land Use, and the environmental factors such as the site being located near wellfield protection zone 1 and it being within wellfield protection zone 2. Considering all these factors, staff recommends changing the property’s land use designation from Institutional General to Limited Commercial future land use designation. 2.5. Capital Facilities Impact (i.e. Concurrency Management) Policy 4.1B.2. of the Future Land Use Element states: “All requests for amendments to the FLUMs shall include a general analysis of (1) the availability and adequacy of public facilities and (2) the level of services required for public facilities in the proposed land uses. This analysis shall address, at a minimum, the availability of category A and category C service facilities as defined in the Capital Improvements Element. No amendment shall be approved unless present or planned public facilities and services will be capable of meeting the adopted LOS standards of this Plan for the proposed land uses. The Capital Improvements Element, or other relevant plan provisions, and the FLUMs may be amended concurrently to satisfy this criterion. The intent of this provision is to ensure that the elements of the CGMP remain internally consistent.” 2.5.1. Mandatory Facilities 2.5.1.1. Water/Sewer Facilities The parcel is located in the Martin County Utilities Area. The site has adequate water and sewer lines, with a potable water line and a main sewer line, Sewer Forcemain. Any proposed development will be required to submit an application for Development Review. The County will provide services subject to development plan approval, execution of a service agreement and a payment of appropriate fees and charges. a) Sewer Forcemain, shown in green b) Potable water, shown in blue Figure 6 A staff memorandum (attached to this report) from Utilities Department staff indicates the amendment will be appropriate: “CPA 18-8 Fire Station: Martin County Utilities has adequate capacity in their system to serve this parcel with existing water and wastewater infrastructure. In the Savannah Road right of way, there is an existing 2’ water main serving the parcel. The developer will be required to submit construction plans for review and approval, obtain state water and wastewater permits, pay appropriate connection fees, and will be responsible for the costs associates with the construction of site specific utility improvements” 2.5.1.2. Drainage Facilities Level of Service for drainage facilities is listed below. Compliance with the following levels of 19 of 246 Page 15 of 16 service requirements must be evaluated with the submittal of a site plan. The developed site must comply with the following policies. Policy 14.1A.2.(2) County water management systems: Level of Service Major Drainage Ways (over one square mile) - 8.5" in a 24-hour period (25 year/24-hour design storm) Underground Facilities Utilizing Storm Sewers - 6" in a 24-hour period (5 year/24-hour design storm) All Other Facilities - 7" in a 24-hour period (10-year/24-hour design storm) Finished Floor Elevation - 100-year/3-day storm (a) Building floors shall be at or above the 100-year flood elevations, as determined from the most appropriate information, including Federal Flood Insurance Rate Maps. Both tidal flooding and the 100-year, 3-day storm event shall be considered in determining elevations. Lower floor elevations will be considered for agricultural buildings and boat storage facilities that are nonresidential and not routinely accessed by the public. (b) All project sites shall control the timing of discharges to preclude any off-site impact for any storm event. The peak discharge rate shall not exceed the predevelopment discharge rate for the 25-year frequency, 3-day duration storm event. The minimum roadway flood protection design storm shall be the 10-year frequency, 24- hour duration storm event unless the roadway is classified as a scenic corridor, in which case the flood protection design storm will consider maintaining the character of the roadway. 2.5.1.3. Transportation Policy 5.2A.1, states: “The base LOS standard for all roadways is during peak hour/peak season, except for the Florida Intrastate Highway System roadways on the Strategic Intermodal System and for facilities funded with the Transportation Regional Incentive Program that lie outside the urbanized area where LOS C is assigned, or except where an interim level of service has been assigned as described in Section 5.3.B.” A staff memorandum (attached to this report) from Public Works Department staff indicates the amendment will be appropriate. 2.5.1.4 Solid Waste Facilities The proposed Future Land Use designation does not exceed the level of service (LOS) criteria for solid waste facilities. The required LOS in Martin County is 1.06 tons of capacity per weighted population. The weighted average population (the average of seasonal and full time residents) countywide in Fiscal year 2019 is 162,499 persons. In fiscal year 2019, there are 243,749 tons of available capacity or 1.50 tons per weighted person. A change from General Institutional to Limited Commercial will not reduce the level of service below capacity. 2.5.1.5. Parks/Recreation Facilities A change from General Institutional to Limited Commercial future land use designation will not require the provision of park facilities. 2.5.1.6. Fire/Public Safety/EMS The following table shows the levels of service adopted in Chapter 14, Capital Improvements. Level of Service Area: Unincorporated Martin County. 20 of 246 Page 16 of 16 Travel time Percent of time Areas of Martin County Advanced life support 8 minutes 94 Urban Advanced life support 20 minutes 94 Rural Basic life support 6 minutes 94 Urban Basic life support 15 minutes 94 Rural Fire response 6 minutes 94 Urban Fire response 15 minutes 94 Rural The proposed future land use change will not diminish the level of service below capacity. 2.5.1.7.

Approval of Consent Agenda/Minutes of September 6, 2018 * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Foley to approve the Consent Agenda and Minutes of the LPA meeting of September 6, 2018. ** SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY 3. UNFINISHED BUSINESS 1. None 68 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –September 20, 2018 3 Mr. Walden explained the proposed amendment to the zoning atlas is consistent with the Medium Density assigned to the Future Land Use Map. The permitted uses and Land Development Regulations (LDRs) pertaining to the RS-6 Medium Density Residential Zoning District are suited for the area, will conserve the value and development pattern that is well established in the community, it is less dense and not multi-family. The LPA confirmed that staff worked with the YCC’s POA and there were no unresolved issues to the RS-6 Medium Density Residential Zoning District. Public Comment: None The LPA had no problems with the change if the YCC POA was comfortable and satisfied with it. * MOTION – MOVED by Ms. Hall to approve the amendment to change the existing zoning district from R-3 Multiple Family Residential District to RS-6, Medium Density Residential District on SE Fairway West, Tract E-5, in the Yacht and Country Club in Stuart, Fl. ** SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY 2. Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-8, Fire Station 10 – Request to consider a Future Land Use Map change from Institutional General to General Commercial on +-0.34 acres located at 1250 NE Samaritan Street. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Growth Management Department Director Presented by: Maria Jose, M.S., Planner, Growth Management Department *** For the Record: *** Ms. Jose provided her resume and professional experience *** A copy of staff’s report and agenda materials were provided *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided Ms. Jose reviewed the request for a Future Land Use Map change from Institutional General to General Commercial on a surplus parcel of +-0.34 acres owned by Martin County at 1250 NE Samaritan Street. Adjacent properties surrounding the parcel were displayed, showing COR, Commercial Office Residential. Opposite properties were GC, General Commercial. Three potential Future Land Use designations were considered: COR, Commercial Office Residential, LC, Limited Commercial, and GC, General Commercial. 69 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –September 20, 2018 4 Ms. Jose indicated staff recommended the most appropriate Land Use Map change from Institutional General would be LC, Limited Commercial due to the small size of the site that would allow a maximum of three residential units and less intensity. Also, LC is compatible with the transition between the mobile home park and adjacent residential neighborhoods and the most intense commercial uses to the North. Ms. Jose explained the difference in intensities for COR and uses that are not permitted in LC, adding that LC would limit the intensity of uses within the Wellfield Protection Zone 1 and the closeness to Wellfield Protection Zone 2. Staff’s recommendation was LC, Limited Commercial. The LPA discussed hearing this request at the July 19, 2018 LPA meeting and their previous discussion concerning whether COR was appropriate since there were three empty parcels adjacent to this parcel. They also discussed that it would be less cumbersome to change the land use in the future if this parcel was COR along with the adjacent parcels. Mr. Watson reviewed the aerial of the property and agreed the FLUM change and zoning should be consistent with the adjacent areas. The LPA discussed the other land use designations available and Mr. Moir commented that GC, General Commercial was not an option. Public Comment: Ms. Dorothy Reyes, representing Tropical Acres Mobile Home Park, and owns #17 in the Park, understood from prior meeting’s discussions about guaranteeing a wall, fence or landscape barrier between the Mobile Home Park for protection. Mr. Moir could not guarantee a barrier and believed it would have to occur between the owner(s) and developer(s). Mr. Dulin displayed the map of the Tropical Acres Mobile Home Park and the Pine Lake Mobile Home Park and indicated that both were owned by Pine Lake Mobile Home Park. Mr. Foley commented that the other two properties are already COR and it would make sense to have them all with the same Land Use Designation. * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Foley to approve the Future Land Use Map change from Institutional General to COR, Commercial Office Residential. * SECONDED by Ms. Hall Carried UNANIMOUSLY 70 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –September 20, 2018 5 3.

There are three COR zoning districts available to implement the Future Land Use designation, COR, COR-1 and COR-2. COR does not allow residential; COR-1 allows residential and COR-2 allows more residential (10/u/p/a) than COR-1. Public Comments: - None * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Watson to recommend approval for CPA 18-8, Fire Station 10 rezoning from PS (Public Service) to COR-2 (Commercial, Office Residential). ** SECONDED by Ms. Hall Carried UNANIMOUSLY 4.

FELONY ARRESTS STUART - A natural grocery store known for its large organic selection is coming to the Treasure Coast. No, we’re not getting Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Market, but a Sprouts Farmers Market. Phoenix-based Sprouts, which op- erates more than 300 stores nation- wide, plans to open in Stuart’s Mar- tin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. The plaza is an- chored by Home Depot, Old Time Pottery and Staples. “Since entering the Florida market two years ago, residents across the state continue to ask for a Sprouts in their neighborhood,” Kalia Pang, a Sprouts spokeswoman, said in a statement. “We are looking forward to bringing our unique ‘healthy living for less’ concept to shoppers in Stu- art.” There are six Sprouts in Florida and more coming soon, including the first in Palm Beach County, set to open March 20 in Wellington. A Jupi- ter location also is planned at 3757 Military Trail in Admiral’s Cove. Sprouts says its stores feature a large produce section in the center of the store and a deli with prepared en- trees and side dishes, butcher shop and fish market. But don’t grab your shopping bags just yet. Additional details, including a projected opening date, were not announced. Based on past experience, we might have a long wait before the grand opening. Remember Lucky’s Market? In February 2017, I first wrote about Lucky’s Market plans to open in Port St. Lucie with a late 2017 pro- jected opening. Many readers have asked me if Lucky’s would ever open here. Good news: It is, company spokes- woman Krista Torvik confirmed. The goal is to open the store in the Town Center at St. Lucie West shopping center in the fourth quarter of 2019, Torvik said.

Sprouts Farmers Market is coming to Stuart's Martin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. RICK GAYLE STUDIO INC. STUART - The Martin County Fair will celebrate 60 years in Stuart when it opens this year's run Feb. 8, but it also will bid farewell to its long- time location on Dixie Highway, across from Witham Field, according to fair officials. Next year, if plans go as expected, the fairgrounds will move from its 11.6-acre site and expand to 107 acres north of Citrus Boulevard and east of Indiantown Airport in western Mar- tin County. The County Commission on Tues- day voted 4-1 to move forward with relocation plans, which would in- clude extension of water and sewer service to the former orange grove. The decision comes after decades of talks about relocating to accom- modate more people, better attrac- tions and bigger agricultural activ- ities. Timing is crucial, said Jay Spicer, manager of the Martin County Fair Association, because construction at Witham Field means this is the last year parking will be provided by the airport. “By fair time 2020, there will be no parking available at the airport," he said, "and we cannot host this event here without parking,” Spicer commended commission- ers for agreeing to move to a larger lo- cation. “It’s very exciting. There have been talks about moving the fair- grounds for more than 30 years, and now we … all have an understanding that this is the right thing for the community,” he said. “We look at it as an investment in the community. Because what we have designed is 80 percent designed for youth activities.” Relocation stages Commissioner Sarah Heard, who on Tuesday questioned the county's $1.6 million share of relocation costs — for road improvements and for wa- ter and sewer lines — was the lone dissenter. The county owns the property as part of a land swap with the South Florida Water Management District. It will cost about $5 million to complete the first phase of develop- ment, records show. “We’re trying to get the new lot to where we can clear it, level it, get the drainage in, bring in some power and ... if we can’t get the water and sewer connections in time, we will use port- a-potties and portable water in the interim,” Spicer said. “The plan is to host the event out there as kind of an old-fashioned traveling carnival set-up, temporari- ly.” The current fairgrounds, 2616 S.E. Dixie Highway, is leased by the Fair Association from the county for $10 a year. That lease expires in 2026, but, Spicer said, the site will be available for up to three years after the fair moves to host other events while offi- cials raise improvement money through grants and donations. Fair officials expect to purse cor- porate support from companies such as Florida Power & Light Co., U.S. Sugar and Atlantic Aviation. Plans show the new site could cost about $50 million. The new fair- grounds would feature a covered are- na, an expo center and community buildings. On Tuesday, County Commission Chairman Ed Ciampi recommended the county lay out the $1.6 million for improvements and get reimbursed later by selling the Dixie Highway site. “I’ve heard it’s worth $5 million, $6 million or $7 million,” Ciampi said during Tuesday’s meeting. “Take some of the proceeds … to kick off the next 50 or 60 years of the next fair out there.” He predicted people throughout the region would visit the new loca- tion. “Almost everyone who would go to the fair in town would go to the fair out west,” he said. “But what they’ll also gain is Clewiston, Okeechobee, Belle Glade, all of the folks that would love to come to the fair.” In 2012, the new site was slated to become an off-highway vehicle park but the project fell through and fair officials have eyed it since.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Local Planning Agency heard CPA 18-9, Leilani Heights on July 19, 2018. Due to concern whether proper mailed notification had occurred, notice was re-sent to all owners of property within 1,000 feet of the property which is the subject of the application, and re-considered by the Local Planning Agency on Sept. 20, 2018. The subject property totals 3.4 acres, is owned by Martin County, and is vacant except for a small playground in the northeast corner. At its meeting on February 27, 2018, the Board directed that an amendment of the Future Land Use Map and Zoning Atlas be initiated to give the property the most appropriate institutional designation. The plat of Leilani Heights, Phase 1, recorded in 1973, identified the property as “Reserved Area No. 1 (Park).” Martin County has three institutional future land use designations—Recreational, Public Conservation, and General Institutional. Staff recommends the Recreational Future Land Use designation and the PR (Public Recreation) zoning district for this property. Figure 1. Location of Subject Property 2. PROJECT/SITE SUMMARY 2.1 Physical/Site Summary The property is 3.4 acres and vacant. The plat of Leilani Heights, Phase 1, recorded in 1973, identified the property as “Reserved Area No. 1 (Park).” A deed from the Leilani Heights Property Owners Association for the southern 2.3 acres (along with some other parcels) was accepted by Martin County in August of 2000. The northern 1.1 acres became the property of Martin County in 2003 when the County FEC right-of-way NE Savannah Road NE 24th St. 90 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 3 assumed the water and wastewater system previously owned and operated by Florida Water Services Corporation.

Excerpt from Plat of Leilani Heights, Phase 1 2.2 Major Roadways NE Savanna Road is a minor arterial. The subject property is accessed from NE 24th Street or NE 21st Street, both of which are local residential streets owned and maintained by Martin County. 2.3 Current Requests to Amend the Comprehensive Plan Pending amendments of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP) include four Board-initiated FLUM amendments, and two Board-initiated text amendments. The total land affected by the five pending amendments of the FLUM totals approximately 15 acres. They are described below and the FLUM amendments are illustrated in Figure 5. A. CPA 18-8, Former Fire Station 10: A county-initiated amendment regarding surplus county-owned land. The 14,810 sq. ft. property is located on NE Samaritan, on a dead-end street.

Wetlands The MC Navigator wetlands composite map is a predictive tool based on satellite wetland mapping, presence of hydric soils, and inclusion on the National Wetlands Inventory. The more indications present, the more likely a wetland is present. The MC navigator wetlands composite shows no indicators that wetlands are present on the subject site or in the vicinity. B. Soils The soil on the subject site is Paola and St. Lucie Sand, 0 to 8% slopes. [MC Navigator, South Florida Water Management District Soil Map layer.] 96 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 9 Figure 8. Soil Survey Paola and St. Lucie Sand, 0-8% slopes Jonathan Sand, 0-5% slopes Salerno Sand Water St. Lucie-Paola-Urban land Complex, Waveland and Immokalee Fine Sand Paola and St. Lucie Sand, 8 – 20% slopes Paola soil is described by the USDA, Soil Conservation Services, in part, as follows: The Paola series consists of very deep, excessively drained soils that formed in sandy marine sediments. Paola soils are on hills, ridges, and flats on marine terraces. Slopes are linear to convex and range from 0 to 20 percent. Mean annual precipitation is 55 inches and the mean annual temperature is about 72 degrees F. St. Lucie soil is described, in part, as follows: The St. Lucie series consists of very deep, excessively drained soils that formed in sandy marine and/or eolian deposits. St. Lucie soils are on dunes, ridges and knolls on marine terraces. Slopes range from linear to convex and range from 0 to 20 percent. Near the type location, the mean annual temperature is about 72 degrees F., and the mean annual precipitation is about 60 inches. 97 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 10 2.5.2 Wellfield Protection Sections 4.141 through 4.154, LDR, establish wellfield protection zone 1, protection zone 2 and protections zone 3. The subject property is located within a Protection Zone 2. Generally, under certain circumstances, the regulations prohibit the storage or use of regulated substances if specified quantities are exceeded, require the making and maintenance of inventories of regulated substances, and restrict certain activities from within specified distances of the wellfield protection zones. The change in the future land use designation from Low Density Residential to Institutional-Recreation has no impact on the location of the property within a Wellfield Protection Zone 2. Figure 9.

South: Pinelake Village Mobile Home Park 98 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 11 Figure 10. Adjacent Existing Land Use 2.7 Criteria for change in the Future Land Use Regarding proposed amendments of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan, Section 1.11.C.(2) provides, in relevant part, as follows: “Staff recommendations shall be consistent with this chapter and with the goals, objectives, and the policies established in this Plan, as well as good planning principles. In evaluating each Future Land Use Map amendment request . . , staff begins with the assumption that the Future Land Use Map, as amended, is generally an accurate representation of the intent of the Board of County Commissioners, and thus the community, for the future of Martin County. Based on this assumption, staff can recommend approval of a requested change provided it is consistent with all other elements of this Plan and at least one of the following three situations has been demonstrated by the applicant to exist: (a) Past changes in land use designations in the general area make the proposed use logical and consistent with these uses and adequate public services are available of and growth in the area— in terms of development of vacant land, redevelopment and availability of public services—has altered the character of the area such that the proposed request is now reasonable and consistent with area land use characteristics; or 99 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 12 (b) The proposed change would correct an inappropriately assigned land use designation; or (c) The proposed change is a County initiated amendment that would correct a public facility deficiency in a County facility that provides for the health, safety or general welfare of County residents and cannot otherwise be adequately provided in a cost effective manner at locations where the proposed land use is currently consistent with the CGMP. If staff cannot make a positive finding regarding any of the items in (a) through (c), along with a determination of consistency with all Plan goals, objectives, and policies and the requirements of this chapter, staff shall recommend denial.” Because the 1973 plat indicated that this site was reserved as a park, and because CGMP Policy 4.13A.11. provides “[l]ands acquired by the County for Recreational uses shall be reclassified to the Institutional-Recreation land use designation during the next plan amendment cycle,” the Low Density Future Land Use designation is inappropriate. Therefore, based on paragraph (b) of Section 1.11.C.(2), staff may recommend a change in the future land use designation. 2.9 Existing and Requested Future Land Uses The determination of the proper future land use is guided by the intent of the possible future land uses. CGMP Policy 4.13A.11. describes three separate categories for the Institutional Future Land Use: (1) Recreational. Recreational lands are designed for activity-based and resource- based recreational uses and typically contain recreational facilities and substantial access improvements. Lands assigned to the Recreational category may be developed only as public recreation areas or used for temporary storage of dredged spoil material resulting from the construction, reconstruction or maintenance of recreation facilities. Examples include Langford Park in Jensen Beach, Pendarvis Cove Park in Palm City and J.V. Reed Park in Hobe Sound. Lands acquired by the County for Recreational uses shall be reclassified to the Institutional-Recreation land use designation during the next plan amendment cycle. The minimum open space shall be 40 percent, maximum building coverage shall be 45 percent and maximum building height shall be 40 feet. (2) Public Conservation. The Public Conservation category recognizes publicly owned areas designed for conservation uses. In addition, privately owned land subject to perpetual easements as provided under Objective 4.5F may be designated Institutional Public Conservation. Only development compatible with conservation and passive recreation uses shall be permitted in the Public 100 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 13 Conservation category. This may include access, parking and other facilities that enable the management of the resource and the public's enjoyment of it. Conservation areas include the DuPuis Preserve in south Martin County and the Savannas in north Martin County. Environmentally sensitive lands acquired by the County shall be reclassified to the Institutional-Conservation land use designation during the next plan amendment cycle. (3) General Institutional. The General Institutional category accommodates public and not-for-profit facilities such as schools, government buildings, civic centers, prisons, major stormwater facilities, fire and emergency operation centers, public cemeteries, hospitals, publicly owned water and sewer systems, dredge spoil management sites and airports. Investor-owned regional public water and sewer systems and private cemeteries may be allowed in General Institutional. Lands acquired by the County for General Institutional uses shall be reclassified to the Institutional-General land use designation during the next plan amendment cycle, as will lands or property rights acquired by the Florida Inland Navigation District as future dredge spoil management sites. Based on these descriptions and intent set-forth in CGMP Policy 4.13A.11., the most appropriate future land use designation for this 3.4 acre parcel is Institutional- Recreational. 2.10 Urban Sprawl The Florida Community Planning Act, §163.3177(9), Fla. Stat. (2018), requires any amendment to the Future Land Use Element of the County’s Comprehensive Plan t o discourage urban sprawl. The statute defines ‘urban sprawl’ as “ a development pattern characterized by low density, automobile- dependent development with either a single use or multiple uses that are not functionally related, requiring the extension of public facilities and services in an inefficient manner, and failing to provide a clear separation between urban and rural uses.” The statute provides a list of thirteen “primary indicators” that a plan amendment “does not discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl.” The evaluation of these 13 indicators consists of an analysis of the plan amendment within the context of the features and characteristics that are unique to Martin County in order to determine whether the plan amendment promotes urban sprawl. None of these 13 indicators of urban sprawl are present in the proposed amendment of Martin County’s Future Land Use Map. The subject property is only 3.4 acres. The proposed amendment of the future land use map recognizes the County’s intent to maintain the property as a park for local residents. 101 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 14 (1) Promotes, allows, or designates for development substantial areas of the jurisdiction as low-intensity, low-density, or single-use development or uses. No. 3.4 acres is not a substantial area. (2) Promotes, allows, or designates significant amounts of urban development to occur in rural areas at substantial distances from existing urban areas while not using undeveloped lands that are available and suitable for development. No. The amendment of the future land use map will recognize the County’s intent to maintain the property as a park for local residents. (3) Promotes, allows, or designates urban development in radial, strip, isolated, or ribbon patterns generally emanating from existing urban developments. No. The property is an infill lot, within the residential neighborhood the park is intended to serve. (4) Fails to adequately protect and conserve natural resources, such as wetlands, floodplains, native vegetation, environmentally sensitive areas, natural groundwater aquifer recharge areas, lakes, rivers, shorelines, beaches, bays, estuarine systems, and other significant natural systems. No. There are no lakes, wetlands, shorelines, etc. on the site. Aerial imagery indicates there is a possibility of a small patch of native upland habitat on the property. Any park developed on the site will take account of the existence of any such native upland habitat. (5) Fails to adequately protect adjacent agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, active agricultural and silvicultural activities, passive agricultural activities, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. No. This is 3.4 acres in a highly urbanized area of the County. (6) Fails to maximize use of existing public facilities and services. No. Existing waterlines and wastewater lines are available to serve the site if in the future restroom and drinking water facilities are desired at the site. (7) Fails to maximize use of future public facilities and services. Not applicable. (8) Allows for land use patterns or timing which disproportionately increase the cost in time, money, and energy of providing and maintaining facilities and services, including roads, potable water, sanitary sewer, stormwater management, law enforcement, education, health care, fire and emergency response, and general government. 102 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 15 No. The property is an infill lot, surrounded by the residences the park is intended to serve. (9) Fails to provide a clear separation between rural and urban uses. No. The property is an infill lot, within the residential neighborhood the park is intended to serve, in a highly urbanized part of Martin County. (10) Discourages or inhibits infill development or the redevelopment of existing neighborhoods and communities. No. The property is an infill lot, surrounded by the residences the park is intended to serve. Designation of this property for park use is an investment in an existing neighborhood. (11) Fails to encourage a functional mix of uses. No. The property is an infill lot, surrounded by the residences the park is intended to serve. The future land use designation will enhance the public recreation potential for the land and diversify the neighborhood. (12) Results in poor accessibility among linked or related land uses. No. The property is accessible by walking or bicycle from the surrounding neighborhood it is intended to serve. (13) Results in the loss of significant amounts of functional open space. No. The change in future land use to Institutional-Recreation recognizes the agreement that this land should remain open space. Florida Statute also sets forth certain factors that evidence that a proposed amendment to the FLUM discourages the proliferation of urban sprawl. These eight factors are the converse of the thirteen set-forth above. The required threshold is that the proposed amendment incorporates a development pattern or urban form that achieves four or more of the following eight factors: (1) Directs or locates economic growth and associated land development to geographic areas of the community in a manner that does not have an adverse impact on and protects natural resources and ecosystems. True. The amendment of the FLUM recognizes the County’s intent to retain the property as a park for local residents. 103 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 16 (2) Promotes the efficient and cost-effective provision or extension of public infrastructure and services. True. Existing waterlines and wastewater lines are available to serve the site if in the future such restroom and drinking water facilities are desired at the site. (3) Promotes walkable and connected communities and provides for compact development and a mix of uses at densities and intensities that will support a range of housing choices and a multimodal transportation system, including pedestrian, bicycle, and transit, if available. To the extent this factor is relevant to this 3.4 acres, it is true. The property is accessible by walking or bicycle from the surrounding neighborhood. (4) Promotes conservation of water and energy. To the extent this factor is relevant to this 3.4 acres, it is true. The property is accessible by walking or bicycle from the surrounding neighborhood. (5) Preserves agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. Not true and not applicable. (6) Preserves open space and natural lands and provides for public open space and recreation needs. True. The amendment of the FLUM recognizes the County’s intent to retain the property as a park for local residents. (7) Creates a balance of land uses based upon demands of the residential population for the nonresidential needs of an area. True. The amendment of the FLUM recognizes the County’s intent to retain the property as a park for local residents. (8) Provides uses, densities, and intensities of use and urban form that would remediate an existing or planned development pattern in the vicinity that constitutes sprawl or it provides for an innovative development pattern such as transit-oriented developments or new towns. True. The amendment of the FLUM recognizes the County’s intent to retain the property as a park for local residents, which they can access on foot or bicycle. 104 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 17 2.11 Capital Facilities Impact (i.e. Concurrency Management) 2.11.

Water and Wastewater Infrastructure 2.11.1.B. Drainage Drainage concerns include downstream flooding and non-point source pollution. Stormwater detention and retention are required to attenuate those impacts. The CGMP has established the following levels of service for drainage facilities:  Major Drainage Ways (more than one square mile) - 8.5" in a 24-hour period for 25 year/24-hour design storm.  Underground Storm Sewers - 6" in a 24-hour period for 5 year / 24- hour design storm.

The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on the maintenance of the drainage LOS 2.11.1.C. Transportation The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on the maintenance of the transportation LOS. The land is located on a residential street. 2.11.1.D. Solid Waste The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on maintenance of the solid waste LOS. 2.11.1.E. Parks and Recreation Changing the future land use designation to Institutional-Recreation will have a modest, positive contribution to maintenance of the County’s LOS for active parks. 2.11.1.F. Fire, Public Safety and Emergency Medical Services The County’s LOS standards for Fire/Rescue as they apply to this property, that is, in Urban Areas, are as follows: 1. Advanced Life Support - 8 minutes 90% of the time; 2. Basic Life Support - 6 minutes 90% of the time; 3. Fire Response - 6 minutes 90% of the time. (CGMP Policy 14.1A.2.) The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on maintenance of the Fire/Rescue LOS. 2.11.1.G. Schools The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on maintenance of the LOS for public school facilities. 106 of 246 CPA 2018-09, Leilani Heights Page 19 2.11.2. Non-Mandatory Facilities 2.12.2.A. Libraries The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on maintenance of the LOS for library facilities. 2.12 Conclusion. Staff recommends the Institutional- Recreational Future Land Use designation for this property. The subject property is identified on the 1973 plat, as “Reserved Area No. 1 (Park).” It is owned by the County and vacant, except for a small playground in the northeast corner. Martin County has three Institutional Future Land Use designations—Recreational, Public Conservation, and General Institutional. Pursuant to CGMP Policy 4.13A.11, land with the Institutional- Recreational future land use is “designed for activity-based and resource-based recreational uses and typically contain recreational facilities and substantial access improvements. . . .Lands acquired by the County for Recreational uses shall be reclassified to the Institutional-Recreation land use designation during the next plan amendment cycle.” Due to its modest size, the function of this land to serve as a park for the immediate neighborhood where residents can arrive by walking or biking will likely be retained.

This item was heard on July 19, 2018, and due to a concern about proper mailing, it was rescheduled for a tonight’s public hearing. The property is owned by Martin County, it is mostly vacant except for a small playground in the northwest corner. An aerial of the Plat and location of the property from 1973 was displayed, indicating “Reserved Area No. 1 (Park).” The Board of County Commissioners initiated the request to change the Land Use on the Future Land Use Map and there are three Institutional future land use designations. After review of all three, staff recommended Institutional Recreation as the most appropriate.

FELONY ARRESTS STUART - A natural grocery store known for its large organic selection is coming to the Treasure Coast. No, we’re not getting Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Market, but a Sprouts Farmers Market. Phoenix-based Sprouts, which op- erates more than 300 stores nation- wide, plans to open in Stuart’s Mar- tin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. The plaza is an- chored by Home Depot, Old Time Pottery and Staples. “Since entering the Florida market two years ago, residents across the state continue to ask for a Sprouts in their neighborhood,” Kalia Pang, a Sprouts spokeswoman, said in a statement. “We are looking forward to bringing our unique ‘healthy living for less’ concept to shoppers in Stu- art.” There are six Sprouts in Florida and more coming soon, including the first in Palm Beach County, set to open March 20 in Wellington. A Jupi- ter location also is planned at 3757 Military Trail in Admiral’s Cove. Sprouts says its stores feature a large produce section in the center of the store and a deli with prepared en- trees and side dishes, butcher shop and fish market. But don’t grab your shopping bags just yet. Additional details, including a projected opening date, were not announced. Based on past experience, we might have a long wait before the grand opening. Remember Lucky’s Market? In February 2017, I first wrote about Lucky’s Market plans to open in Port St. Lucie with a late 2017 pro- jected opening. Many readers have asked me if Lucky’s would ever open here. Good news: It is, company spokes- woman Krista Torvik confirmed. The goal is to open the store in the Town Center at St. Lucie West shopping center in the fourth quarter of 2019, Torvik said.

Sprouts Farmers Market coming to Stuart Bargainista Kelly Tyko Treasure Coast Newspapers USA TODAY NETWORK – FLA. Sprouts Farmers Market is coming to Stuart's Martin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. RICK GAYLE STUDIO INC. STUART - The Martin County Fair will celebrate 60 years in Stuart when it opens this year's run Feb. 8, but it also will bid farewell to its long- time location on Dixie Highway, across from Witham Field, according to fair officials. Next year, if plans go as expected, the fairgrounds will move from its 11.6-acre site and expand to 107 acres north of Citrus Boulevard and east of Indiantown Airport in western Mar- tin County. The County Commission on Tues- day voted 4-1 to move forward with relocation plans, which would in- clude extension of water and sewer service to the former orange grove. The decision comes after decades of talks about relocating to accom- modate more people, better attrac- tions and bigger agricultural activ- ities. Timing is crucial, said Jay Spicer, manager of the Martin County Fair Association, because construction at Witham Field means this is the last year parking will be provided by the airport. “By fair time 2020, there will be no parking available at the airport," he said, "and we cannot host this event here without parking,” Spicer commended commission- ers for agreeing to move to a larger lo- cation. “It’s very exciting. There have been talks about moving the fair- grounds for more than 30 years, and now we … all have an understanding that this is the right thing for the community,” he said. “We look at it as an investment in the community. Because what we have designed is 80 percent designed for youth activities.” Relocation stages Commissioner Sarah Heard, who on Tuesday questioned the county's $1.6 million share of relocation costs — for road improvements and for wa- ter and sewer lines — was the lone dissenter. The county owns the property as part of a land swap with the South Florida Water Management District. It will cost about $5 million to complete the first phase of develop- ment, records show. “We’re trying to get the new lot to where we can clear it, level it, get the drainage in, bring in some power and ... if we can’t get the water and sewer connections in time, we will use port- a-potties and portable water in the interim,” Spicer said. “The plan is to host the event out there as kind of an old-fashioned traveling carnival set-up, temporari- ly.” The current fairgrounds, 2616 S.E. Dixie Highway, is leased by the Fair Association from the county for $10 a year. That lease expires in 2026, but, Spicer said, the site will be available for up to three years after the fair moves to host other events while offi- cials raise improvement money through grants and donations. Fair officials expect to purse cor- porate support from companies such as Florida Power & Light Co., U.S. Sugar and Atlantic Aviation. Plans show the new site could cost about $50 million. The new fair- grounds would feature a covered are- na, an expo center and community buildings. On Tuesday, County Commission Chairman Ed Ciampi recommended the county lay out the $1.6 million for improvements and get reimbursed later by selling the Dixie Highway site. “I’ve heard it’s worth $5 million, $6 million or $7 million,” Ciampi said during Tuesday’s meeting. “Take some of the proceeds … to kick off the next 50 or 60 years of the next fair out there.” He predicted people throughout the region would visit the new loca- tion. “Almost everyone who would go to the fair in town would go to the fair out west,” he said. “But what they’ll also gain is Clewiston, Okeechobee, Belle Glade, all of the folks that would love to come to the fair.” In 2012, the new site was slated to become an off-highway vehicle park but the project fell through and fair officials have eyed it since.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The requested amendment of the Future Land Use Map (FLUM) is needed to accomplish an important County transportation objective—the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue. The Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved an exchange of property with the Moyal group, Inc. and directed that an amendment of the FLUM be initiated to change the future land use designation of the subject property from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial. Resolution 18-5.15 is attached as Exhibit A to this staff report. The property exchange makes possible the re-alignment of SW Leighton Farm Ave. to form a 4-legged intersection with SW Deggeller Court at SW Martin Hwy. and create a safer and more efficient intersection. The subject land abuts ten acres of land owned by the Moyal Group, Inc. that already has the General Commercial Future Land Use designation. Figure 1. Location Map SW Martin Hwy.

Pending Amendments of the Future Land Use Map 2.4 Past Changes in Future Land Use Designation Since the CGMP was adopted in 1982, the FLUM has been amended numerous times between the St. Lucie River and the Florida Turnpike. West of the Turnpike in the vicinity of the subject property, the FLUM has remained constant, with one notable exception—CPA 2007-07, Turnpike Plaza. CPA 2007-07 changed the future land use designation on the abutting 10 acres from Limited Commercial to General Commercial. See Figure 4.

ANALYSIS 2.1 Criteria for change in the Future Land Use Regarding proposed amendments of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan, Section 1.11.C.(2) provides, in relevant part, as follows: “Staff recommendations shall be consistent with this chapter and with the goals, objectives, and the policies established in this Plan, as well as good planning principles. In evaluating each Future Land Use Map amendment request. . . , staff begins with the assumption that the Future Land Use Map, as amended, is generally an accurate representation of the intent of the Board of County Commissioners, and thus the community, for the future of Martin County. Based on this assumption, staff can recommend approval of a requested change provided it is consistent with all other elements of this Plan and at least one of the following three situations has been demonstrated by the applicant to exist: 162 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 10 (a) Past changes in land use designations in the general area make the proposed use logical and consistent with these uses and adequate public services are available of [sic] and growth in the area—in terms of development of vacant land, redevelopment and availability of public services—has altered the character of the area such that the proposed request is now reasonable and consistent with area land use characteristics; or (b) The proposed change would correct an inappropriately assigned land use designation; or (c) The proposed change is a County initiated amendment that would correct a public facility deficiency in a County facility that provides for the health, safety or general welfare of County residents and cannot otherwise be adequately provided in a cost effective manner at locations where the proposed land use is currently consistent with the CGMP. If staff cannot make a positive finding regarding any of the items in (a) through (c), along with a determination of consistency with all Plan goals, objectives, and policies and the requirements of this chapter, staff shall recommend denial.” The 2007 decision to designate the adjacent 10 acres General Commercial Future Land Use, the determination in 2012, by the Martin County Metropolitan Planning Organization, in its Congestion Management Process Update, to align SW Leighton Farm Ave. with SW Deggeller Ct., and the Board’s decision in May 2018 to exchange property with the Moyal Group, Inc., satisfy the criteria in paragraph (a) and allow staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. Adequate public facilities will be provided pursuant to CGMP Policy 14.1B.2.(2) which provides in part, “Future development shall pay for the full cost of the capital improvements needed to address the impact of such development,” and CGMP Policy 4.7D.3, which provides in part, “development shall bear the full cost of providing the new or expanded capital facilities required by it.” Additionally, this is a County-initiated amendment integrally related to capacity improvements to SW Martin Hwy. between SW Citrus Blvd. and SW Martin Downs Blvd. The roadway segment between SW Citrus Blvd. and the Florida Turnpike is currently operating at a Level of Service F. Therefore, this amendment also satisfies the criteria in paragraph (c) and allows staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. 2.2 Existing and Requested Future Land Use designations This proposed amendment of the FLUM is needed to accomplish an important County and regional transportation objective. The rationale and justification of the 163 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 11 amendment was persuasively stated in the staff report presented to the Board by the Public Works Department on May 22, 2018. A portion of that staff report is attached as Exhibit B to this report and the following summary is based on it. Since at least 1988, the Martin County Board of County Commissioners has recognized the need to realign SW Leighton Farm Ave. to form a proper four-legged intersection with Deggeller Ct. and SW Martin Hwy. The realignment was shown on two approved, but unbuilt and now expired, site plans. The 2011 Martin County MPO added the realignment to its Congestion Management Process Update. In January 2017, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) began its study of and design for the widening of SW Martin Hwy. between Citrus Blvd. and the turnpike toll plaza. FDOT has also agreed to design and construct the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Ave. Rather than having FDOT use eminent domain to acquire the property needed for the realignment, Martin County staff negotiated with the property owner, The Moyal Group, Inc., to exchange the proposed 80-foot wide right-of-way for the existing 80-foot wide right-of-way. At the May 22, 2018 meeting, the Board approved the property exchange. The Moyal Group, Inc. has conveyed to the County an 80-foot wide right-of-way for the new alignment of the roadway in exchange for the County’s conveyance to it of the 80-foot wide right-of-way from the abandoned roadway alignment, after FDOT removes and regrades the former roadway. The important County transportation objective coupled with the small land area involved, indicates that the Goals, Objectives and Policies contained in the Land Use Element of the CGMP may be less pertinent to this amendment that the Goals, Objectives and Policies of the Transportation Element. Nonetheless, the current and proposed future land use designation will be reviewed. The Agricultural Ranchette Future Land Use designation (Ag. Ranchette) requires a minimum 5-acre lot area. The Ag. Ranchette designation “is intended to protect and preserve areas of Martin County generally located between the fringe of the agricultural heartland and the outer fringe of urban development. These areas are situated in locations removed from urban services, have developed at very sparse densities and maintain their original agricultural and rural character.” CGMP Policy 4.13A.3. The designation is intended to recognize “the value of these lands for small agricultural operations, recreational equestrian activities and small stables, rural residences and open space. Id. These policies and intentions remain valid, relevant and appropriate for the expanse of Ag. Ranchette land west, northwest and south of the subject parcel. 164 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 12 However, these policies do not disallow the change to General Commercial Future Land Use of the subject 0.79 acre parcel, that abuts and is under common ownership with 10 acres with the General Commercial Future Land Use, and is separated from other Ag. Ranchette property by an 80-foot roadway right-of-way. The change in the FLUM will enable any future development on the adjacent 10 acres to access SW Leighton Farm Ave. without crossing another future land use designation. Amendments of the FLUM to change Ag. Ranchette to a more urban future land use are governed by the same criteria applicable to the conversion of Agricultural Future Land Use to a more urban future designation. Policy 4.13A.1.(2) provides the following criteria for considering such requests: “(a) The proposed development shall not adversely impact the hydrology of the area or the productive capacity of adjacent farmlands not included in the amendment application in any other manner; (b) The proposed land conversion is a logical and timely extension of a more intense land use designation in a nearby area, considering existing and anticipated land use development patterns; consistency with the goals and objectives of the CGMP; and availability of supportive services, including improved roads, recreation amenities, adequate school capacity, satisfactory allocations of water and wastewater facilities, and other needed supportive facilities. Such findings shall be based on soil potential analysis and agricultural site assessment. These criteria are met by the proposed amendment of the FLUM. Given the small size of the parcel and its location abutting land with Commercial General Future Land Use and separated from other Ag. Ranchette land by road right-of-way, this amendment will not affect the productive capacity of any nearby Ag. Ranchette land. The Land Development Regulations should help ensure that the hydrology of the area is not adversely affected. The proposed amendment of the FLUM is logical and timely in order to accomplish a transportation improvement the need for which was recognized by the Board of County Commissioners 30 years ago. 2.3 Urban Sprawl The Florida Community Planning Act, §163.3177(9), Fla. Stat. (2018), requires any amendment to the Future Land Use Element of the County’s Comprehensive Plan to discourage urban sprawl. The statute defines ‘urban sprawl’ as “ a development pattern characterized by low density, automobile- dependent development with a single use or multiple uses that are not functionally 165 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 13 related, requiring the extension of public facilities and services in an inefficient manner, and failing to provide a clear separation between urban and rural uses.” The statute provides a list of thirteen “primary indicators” that a plan amendment “does not discourage the proliferation of urban sprawl.” The evaluation of these 13 indicators consists of an analysis of the plan amendment within the context of the features and characteristics that are unique to Martin County in order to determine whether the plan amendment promotes urban sprawl. None of the 13 indicators of urban sprawl are present in the proposed amendment of Martin County’s FLUM. The subject property is less than one acre, within 1,000 feet of the Florida Turnpike, abutting 10 acres under common ownership which already has the General Commercial FLU and across the street from existing Industrial and Commercial development. (1) Promotes, allows, or designates for development substantial areas of the jurisdiction as low-intensity, low-density, or single-use development or uses. No. 0.79 acres is not a substantial area. (2) Promotes, allows, or designates significant amounts of urban development to occur in rural areas at substantial distances from existing urban areas while not using undeveloped lands that are available and suitable for development. No. 0.79 acres is not a significant amount and the property is not a substantial distance from existing urban areas. (3) Promotes, allows, or designates urban development in radial, strip, isolated, or ribbon patterns generally emanating from existing urban developments. No. Ten acres that already have the General Commercial FLU abut this small parcel and are under common ownership with this small parcel. (4) Fails to adequately protect and conserve natural resources, such as wetlands, floodplains, native vegetation, environmentally sensitive areas, natural groundwater aquifer recharge areas, lakes, rivers, shorelines, beaches, bays, estuarine systems, and other significant natural systems. No. There are no wetlands, floodplains, lakes, rivers, shorelines, etc. on the site. (5) Fails to adequately protect adjacent agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, active agricultural and silvicultural activities, passive agricultural activities, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. No. This is 0.79 acres adjacent to General Commercial FLU and separated from other Ag. Ranchette lands by road right-of-way. Nettles Sand “has very 166 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 14 serious limitations for crops because of wetness.” Source: 1981 Soil Survey of Martin County. (6) Fails to maximize use of existing public facilities and services. No. This amendment will facilitate needed improvements to the intersection of SW Leighton Farm Ave. and SW Martin Hwy. and facilitate capacity improvements on SW Martin Hwy. (7) Fails to maximize use of future public facilities and services. Development of the abutting 10 acres for General Commercial purposes will require the public water and wastewater services. The small increase in the land area may help maximize the use of such facilities at this site. (8) Allows for land use patterns or timing which disproportionately increase the cost in time, money, and energy of providing and maintaining facilities and services, including roads, potable water, sanitary sewer, stormwater management, law enforcement, education, health care, fire and emergency response, and general government. No. Adding this 0.79 acre parcel to the 10-acre parcel which already has the General Commercial FLU will not cause disproportionate costs for public facilities and services. (9) Fails to provide a clear separation between rural and urban uses. This FLUM amendment effectuates a change anticipated since at least 1988 and is very limited in scale. Pressure to allow the conversion of additional Ag. Ranchette land to more intense use may be expected. However, the relocated Leighton Farm right-of-way provides a clear separation between rural and urban uses. (10) Discourages or inhibits infill development or the redevelopment of existing neighborhoods and communities. No. This property is less than one acre and the focus of unique facts and circumstances regarding the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Ave. (11) Fails to encourage a functional mix of uses. No. This amendment involves only 0.79 of an acre and the focus of unique facts and circumstances regarding the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Ave. (12) Results in poor accessibility among linked or related land uses. No. This amendment will improve access to SW Martin Hwy by land uses along SW Leighton Farm Ave. 167 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 15 (13) Results in the loss of significant amounts of functional open space. No. This amendment involves only 0.79 of an acre. Florida Statute also sets forth factors that evidence that a proposed amendment to the FLUM discourages the proliferation of urban sprawl. These eight factors are the converse of the thirteen set-forth above. Given the very small size of the subject parcel and the unique facts and circumstances regarding this amendment, staff believes that 6 of the 8 criteria are irrelevant. Staff believes the proposed amendment satisfies the two criteria that are relevant. Nonetheless, the required threshold is that the proposed amendment incorporates a development pattern or urban form that achieves four or more of the following eight factors and staff’s analysis follows: (1) Directs or locates economic growth and associated land development to geographic areas of the community in a manner that does not have an adverse impact on and protects natural resources and ecosystems. True. This amendment involves only 0.79-acre and abuts land with General Commercial FLU and common ownership. (2) Promotes the efficient and cost-effective provision or extension of public infrastructure and services. True. The amendment is part of a negotiated agreement that avoided the use of eminent domain by FDOT for provision on essential transportation facilities. (3) Promotes walkable and connected communities and provides for compact development and a mix of uses at densities and intensities that will support a range of housing choices and a multimodal transportation system, including pedestrian, bicycle, and transit, if available. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. (4) Promotes conservation of water and energy. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. (5) Preserves agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. 168 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 16 (6) Preserves open space and natural lands and provides for public open space and recreation needs. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. (7) Creates a balance of land uses based upon demands of the residential population for the nonresidential needs of an area. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. (8) Provides uses, densities, and intensities of use and urban form that would remediate an existing or planned development pattern in the vicinity that constitutes sprawl or it provides for an innovative development pattern such as transit-oriented developments or new towns. This criterion is inapplicable to the 0.79-acre parcel that is the subject of this application given its unique facts and circumstances. 2.4 Capital Facilities Impact This section of the staff report addresses CGMP Policy 4.1B.2. which provides: “All requests for amendments to the FLUMs [sic] shall include a general analysis of (1) the availability and adequacy of public facilities and (2) the level of services required for public facilities in the proposed land uses. This analysis shall address, at a minimum, the availability of category A and category C service facilities as defined in the Capital Improvements Element.” 2.4.1 Mandatory Facilities 2.11.1.A. Water and Sewer Martin County’s Level of Service (LOS) for both treatment and distribution of potable water and for wastewater collection and treatment services for commercial uses is 0.1 gallon per square foot. CGMP Policy 14.1A.2(3) and (4). County Utilities Department staff state that the County has adequate water and wastewater capacity. Any development on this parcel will be required to connect to county water and wastewater lines. The developer will be required to extend those lines to the property. See Figure 8. 169 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 17 Figure 8. Martin County Utilities 2.4.1.B. Drainage Drainage concerns include on-site and downstream flooding and non-point source pollution. The LDRs mandate stormwater detention and retention to attenuate those impacts. The CGMP has established the following levels of service for drainage facilities:  Major Drainage Ways (more than one square mile) - 8.5" in a 24-hour period for 25 year/24-hour design storm.  Underground Storm Sewers - 6" in a 24-hour period for 5 year / 24- hour design storm.  All Other Facilities - 7" in a 24-hour period for 10-year/24-hour design storm.  Finished Floor Elevation - 100-year/3-day storm. All applicants for development orders must demonstrate compliance with these post-development standards. The change in the future land use designation will have no significant impact on the maintenance of the drainage LOS. 8-inch water line boundary of MC Utility Service Area 12-inch water line 8-in. gravity sewer line 18-inch sewer force main 170 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 18 2.4.1.C. Transportation The adopted LOS for all County arterial and collector roads is D, for the peak hour/peak direction. SW Martin Highway in the vicinity of the subject property has a LOS of F. However, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) is currently designing and acquiring all of the right-of-way necessary to widen SW Martin Highway in its fiscal year beginning July 2021. In addition, the re-alignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue with SW Deggeller Court, made possible by this FLUM amendment, will improve the safety at the intersection on SW Martin Highway. For the purpose of this proposed amendment, staff can provide a “positive evaluation,” meaning there is sufficient roadway capacity planned in the adopted Capital Improvement Element [Martin County, Fla., CGMP Policy 14.1C.5.(2)(e) (2013)]. This evaluation shall not be used by any applicant or their successors in title, in any way whatsoever as committing the County legally through the theory of equitable estoppel or any other legal theory, to approve any final development order for a project without a determination and reservation of roadway adequate capacity. [Martin County, Fla., CGMP Policy 14.1C.5.(2)(c) (2013)]. 2.4.1.D. Solid Waste The change in the future land use designation will have virtually no impact on maintenance of the solid waste LOS. 2.4.1.E. Parks and Recreation The change in the future land use designation will have virtually no impact on the County’s LOS for active parks. 2.11.1.F. Fire, Public Safety and Emergency Medical Services The County’s LOS standards for Fire/Rescue in Urban Areas are as follows: 1. Advanced Life Support - 8 minutes 90% of the time; 2. Basic Life Support - 6 minutes 90% of the time; 3. Fire Response - 6 minutes 90% of the time. (CGMP Policy 14.1A.2.) The change in the future land use designation on 0.79 acres will have virtually no impact on the County’s LOS standards for Fire/Rescue. 2.4.1.G. Schools 171 of 246 CPA 2018-11, SW Leighton Farm Ave. Page 19 The General Commercial Future Land Use does not allow residential development. The change in the future land use designation on 0.79 acres will have no impact on maintenance of the LOS for public school facilities. 2.4.2. Non-Mandatory Facilities 2.4.2.A. Libraries The only commercial uses expected to create demand on library services are Nursing Homes and Assisted Living Facilities and they are required to pay impact fees. The change in the future land use designation on 0.79 acres will have virtually no impact on maintenance of the LOS for library facilities. 3. CONCLUSION Staff recommends approval of the amendment of the FLUM. The amendment is a component of an agreement regarding the exchange of property between the County and the private landowner. The property exchange will enable the realignment of SW Leighton Farms Ave. where it intersects with SW Martin Hwy. This realignment will in turn facilitate needed improvements to SW Martin Hwy. The proposed amendment of the FLUM facilitates a transportation improvement the need for which was recognized by the Board of County Commissioners for 30 years. EXHIBITS Exhibit A.

Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-11, Leighton Farm Ave. Request to consider a Future Land Use Map change from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial on a +-0.70 acres located just south of SW Martin Highway and adjacent to SW Leighton Farm Avenue. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Growth Management Department Director Presented by: Irene Szedlmayer, AICP, Sr. Planner, Growth Management Department *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided *** Signs Posted and Advertising notices were provided *** The Requested Amendment is needed to accomplish an important County Transportation objective Mr. Moir introduced Ms. Szedlmayer to review the request. Ms. Szedlmayer explained that the Board of County Commissioners approved an exchange of property with the Moyel Group, Inc., and directed an amendment of the Future Land Use Map be initiated to change the Future Land Use Designation of the subject property from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial.  Resolution 18-5.15 is attached as Exhibit A to Staff Report. The property exchange makes possible the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue to form a 4-leg intersection with SW Deggeller Court at SW Martin Highway and create a safer and more efficient intersection. The subject land abuts 10 acres of land owned by the Moyel Group that presently has the General Commercial Future Land Use designation. Photos of the subject property, pending amendments of the Future Land Use Map, FLUM amendments since 1982, Adjacent FLU designations, soil Survey, and Adjacent Existing Land Use maps were displayed and reviewed. Criteria covering change in the Future Land Use was provided (Staff Report, pgs. 9 & 10). Review of the 2007 decision to designate the adjacent 10 acres General Commercial Future Land Use, the determining in 2012 by the Martin County MPO in its Congestion Management Process Update to align SW Leighton Farm Ave. with SE Deggeller Court, along with the Board’s decision (May, 2018) to exchange property with the Moyel Group, Inc., satisfy the criteria (para. [a]) and allow staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. The Amendment is related to capacity improvements to SW Martin Highway between SW Citrus Blvd., and SW Martin Downs Blvd. The roadway segment 183 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 3 between SW Citrus Blvd. and the Fl. Turnpike is currently operating at LOS “F”, and the Amendment satisfies the criteria in (para. [c]) and allows staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. DISCUSSION: Mr. Banfi supported the request. He asked how the current Right of Way (ROW) got a land use designation of GC-General Commercial since that isn’t usually done to ROWs. Ms. Szedlmayer explained in 2007 a land use amendment was reviewed in an anticipation of approval of a proposed site plan for Leighton Farm Avenue relocation and improvements. Mr. Banfi commented on the legal descriptions being consistent with all the realigned properties land uses, and that nothing should be left out. Mr. Moir commented on the .79 acres and if it was all of the easement. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated that it was land that is not part of the ROW and the land use map was provided for the current ROW. Ms. Storey noted the 2,500 ft. for notification outside the PUSD was correct. Public Comment: None * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Watson to approve the Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-11, Leighton Farm Avenue to change the Future Land Use Map from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial on +-0.79 acres located south of SW Martin Highway and Adjacent to SW Leighton Farm Avenue. ** SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY 2. Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-12, Leighton Farm Avenue Request to amend the text of Chapter 4, Land Use Element to extend the boundary of Figure 4-2, the Urban Service District, and related topics if warranted in other chapters. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Growth Management Department Director Presented by: Irene Szedlmayer, AICP, Sr. Planner, Growth Management Department *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided *** Signs Posted and Advertising notices were provided *** The Requested Amendment is the companion piece to CPA 18-11 for consistency in Chapter 4 and 11. 184 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 4 Ms. Szedlmayer reviewed the request and provided information from the Executive Summary on Resolution 18-5.5.16, CGMP Fig. 4-2, Urban Service District revised to align the boundary of the PUSD with the western edge of the new SW Leighton Farm Avenue alignment and increases the PUSD by approximately by 3.2 acres. Photos: Fig. 1, Revision to the PUSD directed by Res. 18-5.16 and Fig. 2, Revision to the PUSD as recommended by staff (staff report, pg. 3/7) was provided, showing the PUSD existing area boundary in blue and new service area in green. The Board was also asked to consider the recommendation that the boundary of the PUSD be extended approximately 100 ft. to the south so that the PUSD coincides with the land designated General Commercial Future Land Use (land subject of two previous site plans, approved in 2007, but never recorded). This alternative increases the PUSD by 5.12 acres, not 3.2 acres, (Fig. 2). Mr. Banfi asked if the land east of the old Leighton Farm Avenue ROW was part of the development. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated it was not. Mr. Banfi discussed ownership and if the strategy was that everything labeled General Commercial is to be in the PUSD. He questioned the land west of that and why we were including it this time and excluding it from the land use. Ms. Szedlmayer explained – the general mapping protocol is that the PUSD and SUSD goes over ROW lines. The Resolution of the Board directed that the PUSD be brought over to the new western boundary of Leighton Farm Avenue. Mr. Banfi said if this is so, he hoped that the precedent will be treating everyone consistently, including ROWs. Mr. Watson asked if the USB followed property lines. Ms. van Vonno provided some history of the 1980’s GIS maps, and the reasons why errors occurred, which was before the new technical equipment we now have available, providing accurately detailed GIS Maps for staff and applicants. Mr. Moir commented on including the GC land use and the value of setting a precedent for the ROW easement boundary. Ms. van Vonno indicated you have to use the ROW, it is typically a greater distance than the constructed road. Mr. Banfi said the ROW becomes part of the urban network. You might make it clear and say the road is providing service to this commercial development and is also in the USD. Discussion ensued on a triangle piece of property to the north and cleaning that up. 185 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 5 Ms. Storey noted this was a text change request and you would have to speak with the property owner in order to do that. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated that staff’s recommendation is to extend the PUSD to the western boundary of the new SW Leighton Farm Avenue ROW and to the south to coincide with the boundary of the General Commercial Future Land Use designation. Mr. Dulin noted the text of the CGMP 4-7 specifically describes the PUSD as being applicable to urban future land use designation, so it follows to a GC future land use designation. Hatching should not be there, and errors made earlier can be remedied now as part of this recommendation. Public Comment: - None * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Banfi to concur with staff’s recommendation and move for the correction of the southeast corner and triangular piece and correction on the Urban Service Boundary to coincide with the Land Use. * SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY B.

FELONY ARRESTS STUART - A natural grocery store known for its large organic selection is coming to the Treasure Coast. No, we’re not getting Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Market, but a Sprouts Farmers Market. Phoenix-based Sprouts, which op- erates more than 300 stores nation- wide, plans to open in Stuart’s Mar- tin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. The plaza is an- chored by Home Depot, Old Time Pottery and Staples. “Since entering the Florida market two years ago, residents across the state continue to ask for a Sprouts in their neighborhood,” Kalia Pang, a Sprouts spokeswoman, said in a statement. “We are looking forward to bringing our unique ‘healthy living for less’ concept to shoppers in Stu- art.” There are six Sprouts in Florida and more coming soon, including the first in Palm Beach County, set to open March 20 in Wellington. A Jupi- ter location also is planned at 3757 Military Trail in Admiral’s Cove. Sprouts says its stores feature a large produce section in the center of the store and a deli with prepared en- trees and side dishes, butcher shop and fish market. But don’t grab your shopping bags just yet. Additional details, including a projected opening date, were not announced. Based on past experience, we might have a long wait before the grand opening. Remember Lucky’s Market? In February 2017, I first wrote about Lucky’s Market plans to open in Port St. Lucie with a late 2017 pro- jected opening. Many readers have asked me if Lucky’s would ever open here. Good news: It is, company spokes- woman Krista Torvik confirmed. The goal is to open the store in the Town Center at St. Lucie West shopping center in the fourth quarter of 2019, Torvik said.

Sprouts Farmers Market coming to Stuart Bargainista Kelly Tyko Treasure Coast Newspapers USA TODAY NETWORK – FLA. Sprouts Farmers Market is coming to Stuart's Martin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. RICK GAYLE STUDIO INC. STUART - The Martin County Fair will celebrate 60 years in Stuart when it opens this year's run Feb. 8, but it also will bid farewell to its long- time location on Dixie Highway, across from Witham Field, according to fair officials. Next year, if plans go as expected, the fairgrounds will move from its 11.6-acre site and expand to 107 acres north of Citrus Boulevard and east of Indiantown Airport in western Mar- tin County. The County Commission on Tues- day voted 4-1 to move forward with relocation plans, which would in- clude extension of water and sewer service to the former orange grove. The decision comes after decades of talks about relocating to accom- modate more people, better attrac- tions and bigger agricultural activ- ities. Timing is crucial, said Jay Spicer, manager of the Martin County Fair Association, because construction at Witham Field means this is the last year parking will be provided by the airport. “By fair time 2020, there will be no parking available at the airport," he said, "and we cannot host this event here without parking,” Spicer commended commission- ers for agreeing to move to a larger lo- cation. “It’s very exciting. There have been talks about moving the fair- grounds for more than 30 years, and now we … all have an understanding that this is the right thing for the community,” he said. “We look at it as an investment in the community. Because what we have designed is 80 percent designed for youth activities.” Relocation stages Commissioner Sarah Heard, who on Tuesday questioned the county's $1.6 million share of relocation costs — for road improvements and for wa- ter and sewer lines — was the lone dissenter. The county owns the property as part of a land swap with the South Florida Water Management District. It will cost about $5 million to complete the first phase of develop- ment, records show. “We’re trying to get the new lot to where we can clear it, level it, get the drainage in, bring in some power and ... if we can’t get the water and sewer connections in time, we will use port- a-potties and portable water in the interim,” Spicer said. “The plan is to host the event out there as kind of an old-fashioned traveling carnival set-up, temporari- ly.” The current fairgrounds, 2616 S.E. Dixie Highway, is leased by the Fair Association from the county for $10 a year. That lease expires in 2026, but, Spicer said, the site will be available for up to three years after the fair moves to host other events while offi- cials raise improvement money through grants and donations. Fair officials expect to purse cor- porate support from companies such as Florida Power & Light Co., U.S. Sugar and Atlantic Aviation. Plans show the new site could cost about $50 million. The new fair- grounds would feature a covered are- na, an expo center and community buildings. On Tuesday, County Commission Chairman Ed Ciampi recommended the county lay out the $1.6 million for improvements and get reimbursed later by selling the Dixie Highway site. “I’ve heard it’s worth $5 million, $6 million or $7 million,” Ciampi said during Tuesday’s meeting. “Take some of the proceeds … to kick off the next 50 or 60 years of the next fair out there.” He predicted people throughout the region would visit the new loca- tion. “Almost everyone who would go to the fair in town would go to the fair out west,” he said. “But what they’ll also gain is Clewiston, Okeechobee, Belle Glade, all of the folks that would love to come to the fair.” In 2012, the new site was slated to become an off-highway vehicle park but the project fell through and fair officials have eyed it since.

REQUEST NUMBER: CPA 18-12, Leighton Farm Avenue Text Amendment APPLICANT: Martin County Board of County Commissioners PLANNER-IN-CHARGE: Irene A. Szedlmayer, AICP Senior Planner REPRESENTED BY: Nicki van Vonno, AICP Growth Management Director Public Hearings Meeting Date Action LPA Oct. 4, 2018 The LPA unanimously approved approval amendment of CGMP Figures 4-2 and 11-1. BCC Transmittal Oct. 23, 2018 The BCC approved transmittal of the amendment of CGMP Figures 4-2 and 11-1. BCC Adoption Jan. 29, 2019 The BCC approved adoption of the amendment of CGMP Figures 4-2 and 11-1. Property: The property affected by CPA 18-12 is approximately 5.12 acres and includes right-of-way of the current and future SW Leighton Farm Avenue. Request: Request to amend Chapter 4, the Future Land Use Element, to modify Figure 4-2, Urban Service District, and Chapter 11, Potable Water Services Element, to modify Figure 11-1, Areas Currently Served by Regional Utilities, in order to accommodate the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue and maintain consistency between the Future Land Use Map and other Comprehensive Growth Management Plan figures. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the text amendment. 210 of 246 Page 2 of 7 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This proposed amendment of the Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP) was initiated by the Board of County Commissioners (Board) and is associated with an agreement between the County and The Moyel Group, Inc. to exchange property in order to accomplish an important transportation improvement. This text amendment is a companion to CPA 18-11, the request to amend the Future Land Use Map from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial. The Moyel Group, Inc. conveyed to the County ±1.09 acres needed to create an 80-ft. wide right-of-way for a new alignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue at SW Martin Hwy. In exchange, the County agreed to convey to The Moyel Group, Inc. the right- of-way of the current SW Leighton Farm Avenue alignment (±0.88 acres), after the new alignment is constructed and the former road is removed and regraded. Resolution 18-5.16 directed that Figure 4-2, Urban Service District, be revised to align the boundary of the Primary Urban Service District with the western edge of the new SW Leighton Farm Avenue alignment. That adjustment would increase the Primary Urban Service District (PUSD) by approximately 3.2 acres. See Figure 1. At the October 23, 2018 public hearing, the Board of County Commissioners accepted the staff recommendation that the boundary of the PUSD also be extended approximately 100 feet to the south so that the PUSD coincides with the land designated General Commercial Future Land Use, the land that was the subject of two previous site plans (Turnpike Motel PUD (expired)) and Turnpike Plaza (approved in 2007 but never recorded), and the extent of the area already included in CGMP Figure 11-1, Areas Currently Served by Regional Utilities. As a result, the text amendment increases the PUSD by 5.12 acres. See Figure 2. Figure 1. Revision to the Primary Urban Service District directed by Res. 18-5.16 = current PUSD = proposed PUSD 211 of 246 Page 3 of 7 Figure 2. Revision to the Primary Urban Service District approved for transmittal by the Board Figure 3. Recommended Revision to the Primary Urban Service District showing the General Commercial and Agricultural Ranchette Future Land Use designations. CGMP Policy 4.7A.8, addresses extension of the Primary Urban Service District boundary, and provides: “Boundaries may extend beyond the established delineation or to major boundaries, such as railroads, water bodies or transportation corridors, to a maximum distance of 660 feet, providing that such 212 of 246 Page 4 of 7 extensions are consistent with all provisions of the adopted CGMP. Any additional extension must be approved through a comprehensive plan amendment.” Extending the PUSD Boundary to the realigned SW Leighton Farm Avenue is a distance of less than 660 feet and therefore, pursuant to Policy 4.7A.8, technically does not require an amendment of the CGMP. Nonetheless, Resolution 18-5.16, at the suggestion of staff, initiated the text amendment to formalize the change on the Urban Service District Map. Similarly, the adjustment of the PUSD boundary to coincide with the land that has the General Commercial Future Land Use designation and is within the Martin County Utility Service Area is also an extension of less than 660 feet and technically does not require a CGMP amendment. At the October 23, 2018 public hearing, the Board also accepted staff’s recommendation that amendment Figure 11-1, Areas Currently Served by Regional Utilities, be amended concurrently. Such an adjustment is essentially a house- keeping item intended to make and maintain consistency between Figure 11-1 and Figure 4-2. As transmitted to the State Land Planning Agency, the western boundary of both figures will be the western boundary of the SW Leighton Farm Avenue right-of-way. See Figure 4. Figure 4. Excerpt of Figure 11-1 as proposed to be amended 213 of 246 Page 5 of 7 ANALYSIS The land area covered by CPA 18-12 is larger than that covered by CPA 18-11 due to mapping conventions and the history of the property. Figure 4-2, Urban Service District, does not distinguish between roadway rights-of-way and other land, whereas the Future Land Use Map does not give rights-of-way a future land use designation. Consistent with that practice, the proposed amendment of the PUSD includes the right-of-way for both the current and future alignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue and a small section of the right-of-way of SW Martin Hwy, whereas the amendment of the FLUM proposed by CPA 18-11 does not include the right-of- way for the future roadway alignment or SW Martin Hwy. Additionally, the current boundary of the PUSD ends east of the current roadway alignment, whereas the General Commercial Future Land Use designation includes the right-of-way of the current alignment. The PUSD is “intended to separate urban from nonurban areas.” CGMP Policy 4.7A.7. The same policy establishes eight criteria to guide consideration of an alteration of the PUSD and requires the Board of County Commissioners to make a finding on the eight criteria. Those eight criteria are stated in italics and the staff analysis follows. 1. Not create any internal inconsistency with other elements of the adopted CGMP. Analysis: The amendment will not create internal inconsistencies in the CGMP. 2. Not result in incompatibilities with adjacent land uses. Analysis: The amendment will not create incompatibilities with adjacent land uses. It will be more compatible with the abutting 10 acres under common ownership with the Commercial General Future Land Use. 3. Not adversely impact environmental, natural, historical or archaeological resources, features or systems to a degree that is inconsistent with this Plan. Analysis: The amendment will not impact such resources to a degree that is inconsistent with the Plan. 4. Be consistent with Goal 4.9 relating to appropriate residential land use capacities. Goal 4.9 provides as follows: “To provide for appropriate and adequate lands for residential land uses to meet the housing needs of the anticipated population and provide residents with a variety of choices in housing types and living arrangements throughout the County.” 214 of 246 Page 6 of 7 Analysis: This amendment will not impact the County’s residential land use capacity. 5. Demonstrate that reasonable capacity does not exist on suitable land in the existing [PUSD] for the 15-year planning period. For the purpose of this subsection, ‘reasonable’ means available for development from the standpoint of environmental concerns, efficient use and expansion of public facilities and services, or availability of development sites in relationship to the projected needs of the population. Analysis: This text referring to reasonable capacity for the 15-year planning period is not referring to commercial development. Additionally, this criterion is not relevant to this particular amendment, given the facts and circumstances of the property exchange. 6. Demonstrate that the land affected is suitable for urban uses. At a minimum, unsuitable uses include environmentally sensitive areas (to the degree they are protected by this Plan), prime agricultural areas, prime groundwater recharge areas and critical habitat for endangered or threatened species. This criterion is not intended to preclude development of surrounding lands provided that the unsuitable areas are fully protected. Analysis: The land is suitable for urban uses. It does not appear to contain sensitive environmental resources. 7. Demonstrate that the full range of urban public facilities and services can be economically and efficiently supplied at the adopted LOS standards;” Analysis: This amendment is regarding 5.12 acres adjacent to 7.2 acres already within the PUSD, with the General Commercial Future Land Use designation, within the Martin County Utilities Service Area, and under common ownership. The road realignment of SW Leighton Farm Rd. is part of capacity improvements planned by the Department of Transportation. The County has water and wastewater capacity to serve the property. At such time as development is proposed, the developer will be required to extend water and wastewater lines to serve the property. 8. Be consistent with the adopted Capital Improvements Element. Analysis: This amendment is consistent with the Capital Improvements Element. CGMP Policy 14.1B.2(a) requires new development to “pay for the full cost of the capital improvements needed to address the impact of such development.” At the time any development is 215 of 246 Page 7 of 7 proposed, the applicant will be required to demonstrate that adequate public facilities are available. CONCLUSION Staff recommends approval. The amendment of Figure 4-2 to extend the PUSD will also include all land which already has the General Commercial Future Land Use designation, is within the Martin County Utility Services Area, and was included in previously approved site plans. The amendment of Figure 11-1 makes and maintains consistency between the Future Land Use Map, Figure 4-2 and Figure 11-1. 216 of 246 CPA 18-1� SW Leighton Farm Avenue 7(;7 Application Materials 217 of 246 218 of 246 CPA 18-12 SW Leighton Farm Avenue TEXT Meeting Minutes 219 of 246 LOCAL PLANNING AGENCY MEETING Martin County Commissioner Chambers 2401 S.E.

Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-11, Leighton Farm Ave. Request to consider a Future Land Use Map change from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial on a +-0.70 acres located just south of SW Martin Highway and adjacent to SW Leighton Farm Avenue. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Growth Management Department Director Presented by: Irene Szedlmayer, AICP, Sr. Planner, Growth Management Department *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided *** Signs Posted and Advertising notices were provided *** The Requested Amendment is needed to accomplish an important County Transportation objective Mr. Moir introduced Ms. Szedlmayer to review the request. Ms. Szedlmayer explained that the Board of County Commissioners approved an exchange of property with the Moyel Group, Inc., and directed an amendment of the Future Land Use Map be initiated to change the Future Land Use Designation of the subject property from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial.  Resolution 18-5.15 is attached as Exhibit A to Staff Report. The property exchange makes possible the realignment of SW Leighton Farm Avenue to form a 4-leg intersection with SW Deggeller Court at SW Martin Highway and create a safer and more efficient intersection. The subject land abuts 10 acres of land owned by the Moyel Group that presently has the General Commercial Future Land Use designation. Photos of the subject property, pending amendments of the Future Land Use Map, FLUM amendments since 1982, Adjacent FLU designations, soil Survey, and Adjacent Existing Land Use maps were displayed and reviewed. Criteria covering change in the Future Land Use was provided (Staff Report, pgs. 9 & 10). Review of the 2007 decision to designate the adjacent 10 acres General Commercial Future Land Use, the determining in 2012 by the Martin County MPO in its Congestion Management Process Update to align SW Leighton Farm Ave. with SE Deggeller Court, along with the Board’s decision (May, 2018) to exchange property with the Moyel Group, Inc., satisfy the criteria (para. [a]) and allow staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. The Amendment is related to capacity improvements to SW Martin Highway between SW Citrus Blvd., and SW Martin Downs Blvd. The roadway segment 221 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 3 between SW Citrus Blvd. and the Fl. Turnpike is currently operating at LOS “F”, and the Amendment satisfies the criteria in (para. [c]) and allows staff to recommend approval of the proposed amendment of the FLUM. DISCUSSION: Mr. Banfi supported the request. He asked how the current Right of Way (ROW) got a land use designation of GC-General Commercial since that isn’t usually done to ROWs. Ms. Szedlmayer explained in 2007 a land use amendment was reviewed in an anticipation of approval of a proposed site plan for Leighton Farm Avenue relocation and improvements. Mr. Banfi commented on the legal descriptions being consistent with all the realigned properties land uses, and that nothing should be left out. Mr. Moir commented on the .79 acres and if it was all of the easement. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated that it was land that is not part of the ROW and the land use map was provided for the current ROW. Ms. Storey noted the 2,500 ft. for notification outside the PUSD was correct. Public Comment: None * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Watson to approve the Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-11, Leighton Farm Avenue to change the Future Land Use Map from Agricultural Ranchette to General Commercial on +-0.79 acres located south of SW Martin Highway and Adjacent to SW Leighton Farm Avenue. ** SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY 2. Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-12, Leighton Farm Avenue Request to amend the text of Chapter 4, Land Use Element to extend the boundary of Figure 4-2, the Urban Service District, and related topics if warranted in other chapters. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Growth Management Department Director Presented by: Irene Szedlmayer, AICP, Sr. Planner, Growth Management Department *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided *** Signs Posted and Advertising notices were provided *** The Requested Amendment is the companion piece to CPA 18-11 for consistency in Chapter 4 and 11. 222 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 4 Ms. Szedlmayer reviewed the request and provided information from the Executive Summary on Resolution 18-5.5.16, CGMP Fig. 4-2, Urban Service District revised to align the boundary of the PUSD with the western edge of the new SW Leighton Farm Avenue alignment and increases the PUSD by approximately by 3.2 acres. Photos: Fig. 1, Revision to the PUSD directed by Res. 18-5.16 and Fig. 2, Revision to the PUSD as recommended by staff (staff report, pg. 3/7) was provided, showing the PUSD existing area boundary in blue and new service area in green. The Board was also asked to consider the recommendation that the boundary of the PUSD be extended approximately 100 ft. to the south so that the PUSD coincides with the land designated General Commercial Future Land Use (land subject of two previous site plans, approved in 2007, but never recorded). This alternative increases the PUSD by 5.12 acres, not 3.2 acres, (Fig. 2). Mr. Banfi asked if the land east of the old Leighton Farm Avenue ROW was part of the development. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated it was not. Mr. Banfi discussed ownership and if the strategy was that everything labeled General Commercial is to be in the PUSD. He questioned the land west of that and why we were including it this time and excluding it from the land use. Ms. Szedlmayer explained – the general mapping protocol is that the PUSD and SUSD goes over ROW lines. The Resolution of the Board directed that the PUSD be brought over to the new western boundary of Leighton Farm Avenue. Mr. Banfi said if this is so, he hoped that the precedent will be treating everyone consistently, including ROWs. Mr. Watson asked if the USB followed property lines. Ms. van Vonno provided some history of the 1980’s GIS maps, and the reasons why errors occurred, which was before the new technical equipment we now have available, providing accurately detailed GIS Maps for staff and applicants. Mr. Moir commented on including the GC land use and the value of setting a precedent for the ROW easement boundary. Ms. van Vonno indicated you have to use the ROW, it is typically a greater distance than the constructed road. Mr. Banfi said the ROW becomes part of the urban network. You might make it clear and say the road is providing service to this commercial development and is also in the USD. Discussion ensued on a triangle piece of property to the north and cleaning that up. 223 of 246 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 4, 2018 5 Ms. Storey noted this was a text change request and you would have to speak with the property owner in order to do that. Ms. Szedlmayer indicated that staff’s recommendation is to extend the PUSD to the western boundary of the new SW Leighton Farm Avenue ROW and to the south to coincide with the boundary of the General Commercial Future Land Use designation. Mr. Dulin noted the text of the CGMP 4-7 specifically describes the PUSD as being applicable to urban future land use designation, so it follows to a GC future land use designation. Hatching should not be there, and errors made earlier can be remedied now as part of this recommendation. Public Comment: - None * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Banfi to concur with staff’s recommendation and move for the correction of the southeast corner and triangular piece and correction on the Urban Service Boundary to coincide with the Land Use. * SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY B.

FELONY ARRESTS STUART - A natural grocery store known for its large organic selection is coming to the Treasure Coast. No, we’re not getting Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods Market, but a Sprouts Farmers Market. Phoenix-based Sprouts, which op- erates more than 300 stores nation- wide, plans to open in Stuart’s Mar- tin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. The plaza is an- chored by Home Depot, Old Time Pottery and Staples. “Since entering the Florida market two years ago, residents across the state continue to ask for a Sprouts in their neighborhood,” Kalia Pang, a Sprouts spokeswoman, said in a statement. “We are looking forward to bringing our unique ‘healthy living for less’ concept to shoppers in Stu- art.” There are six Sprouts in Florida and more coming soon, including the first in Palm Beach County, set to open March 20 in Wellington. A Jupi- ter location also is planned at 3757 Military Trail in Admiral’s Cove. Sprouts says its stores feature a large produce section in the center of the store and a deli with prepared en- trees and side dishes, butcher shop and fish market. But don’t grab your shopping bags just yet. Additional details, including a projected opening date, were not announced. Based on past experience, we might have a long wait before the grand opening. Remember Lucky’s Market? In February 2017, I first wrote about Lucky’s Market plans to open in Port St. Lucie with a late 2017 pro- jected opening. Many readers have asked me if Lucky’s would ever open here. Good news: It is, company spokes- woman Krista Torvik confirmed. The goal is to open the store in the Town Center at St. Lucie West shopping center in the fourth quarter of 2019, Torvik said.

Sprouts Farmers Market coming to Stuart Bargainista Kelly Tyko Treasure Coast Newspapers USA TODAY NETWORK – FLA. Sprouts Farmers Market is coming to Stuart's Martin Square shopping center on U.S. 1 near Indian Street. RICK GAYLE STUDIO INC. STUART - The Martin County Fair will celebrate 60 years in Stuart when it opens this year's run Feb. 8, but it also will bid farewell to its long- time location on Dixie Highway, across from Witham Field, according to fair officials. Next year, if plans go as expected, the fairgrounds will move from its 11.6-acre site and expand to 107 acres north of Citrus Boulevard and east of Indiantown Airport in western Mar- tin County. The County Commission on Tues- day voted 4-1 to move forward with relocation plans, which would in- clude extension of water and sewer service to the former orange grove. The decision comes after decades of talks about relocating to accom- modate more people, better attrac- tions and bigger agricultural activ- ities. Timing is crucial, said Jay Spicer, manager of the Martin County Fair Association, because construction at Witham Field means this is the last year parking will be provided by the airport. “By fair time 2020, there will be no parking available at the airport," he said, "and we cannot host this event here without parking,” Spicer commended commission- ers for agreeing to move to a larger lo- cation. “It’s very exciting. There have been talks about moving the fair- grounds for more than 30 years, and now we … all have an understanding that this is the right thing for the community,” he said. “We look at it as an investment in the community. Because what we have designed is 80 percent designed for youth activities.” Relocation stages Commissioner Sarah Heard, who on Tuesday questioned the county's $1.6 million share of relocation costs — for road improvements and for wa- ter and sewer lines — was the lone dissenter. The county owns the property as part of a land swap with the South Florida Water Management District. It will cost about $5 million to complete the first phase of develop- ment, records show. “We’re trying to get the new lot to where we can clear it, level it, get the drainage in, bring in some power and ... if we can’t get the water and sewer connections in time, we will use port- a-potties and portable water in the interim,” Spicer said. “The plan is to host the event out there as kind of an old-fashioned traveling carnival set-up, temporari- ly.” The current fairgrounds, 2616 S.E. Dixie Highway, is leased by the Fair Association from the county for $10 a year. That lease expires in 2026, but, Spicer said, the site will be available for up to three years after the fair moves to host other events while offi- cials raise improvement money through grants and donations. Fair officials expect to purse cor- porate support from companies such as Florida Power & Light Co., U.S. Sugar and Atlantic Aviation. Plans show the new site could cost about $50 million. The new fair- grounds would feature a covered are- na, an expo center and community buildings. On Tuesday, County Commission Chairman Ed Ciampi recommended the county lay out the $1.6 million for improvements and get reimbursed later by selling the Dixie Highway site. “I’ve heard it’s worth $5 million, $6 million or $7 million,” Ciampi said during Tuesday’s meeting. “Take some of the proceeds … to kick off the next 50 or 60 years of the next fair out there.” He predicted people throughout the region would visit the new loca- tion. “Almost everyone who would go to the fair in town would go to the fair out west,” he said. “But what they’ll also gain is Clewiston, Okeechobee, Belle Glade, all of the folks that would love to come to the fair.” In 2012, the new site was slated to become an off-highway vehicle park but the project fell through and fair officials have eyed it since.
