APPLICANT REQUEST: Board of County Commissioners has initiated a comprehensive plan amendment to assign the most appropriate institutional future land use designation. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends a future land use change on the property from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation future land use. 5 of 99 Page 2 of 13 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: The 10.13 acre property is located on NE Causeway Blvd, west of NE Jensen Beach Club in Hutchinson Island, Jensen Beach and is shown below, highlighted in blue (Figure 1). Figure 1 On July 10, 2018, the Board of County Commissioners approved and accepted a Quit-Claim Deed and obtained the 10.13 acre subject property that is adjacent to the Jensen Beach Impoundment Area, which is designated as Public Conservation future land use. Since the Board has the intention of giving the parcel the same future land use designation as the Jensen Beach Impoundment Area, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment was initiated to change the subject parcel to the most appropriate institutional designation. The staff analysis will consider the Public Conservation future land use designation. 1. PROJECT/SITE SUMMARY 1.1. Physical/Site Summary The subject property is 10.13 acres (441,262.8 sq. ft.). The parcel is within the following: Planning District: North County. Adjacent Planning District: Stuart Urban. 6 of 99 Page 3 of 13 Commission District: District 1. Taxing District: District 1/HI Municipal Service Taxing Unit. 1.2 Major Roadways The major roadways closest to the subject parcel are NE Causeway Blvd., upon which the parcel is located and NE Ocean Blvd., which is east of the parcel. 1.3. Current Amendment Requests CPA 18- 8, Fire Station 10: A request to change the future land use designation on a 0.34 acre property from General Institutional to a more appropriate future land use designation. It was declared as surplus property by the Board of County Commissioners. 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. CPA 18-14, Dixie Hwy. Rio: A request from Martin County Community Redevelopment Agency to change the future land use designation on a 0.28 acre property from General Institutional and General Commercial to solely General Commercial future land use designation. 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 2015-8, Ordinance 976 changed the future land use from Residential Estate Density, two units per acre, to Institutional Conservation on 91.8 acres located on north Hutchinson Island, west of NE Ocean Boulevard. B. CPA 2004-9, Ordinance 652 changed the future land use from Limited Commercial to Residential Estate Density on +2 acres located near the intersection of Causeway Boulevard and N.E. Ocean Boulevard (A1A) on Hutchinson Island. 7 of 99 Page 4 of 13 Figure 2 1.5. Adjacent Future Land Use North: Public Conservation. South: Public Conservation. East: Medium Density Residential. West: Public Conservation. 1.6. Environmental Considerations 1.6.1. Wetlands, soils and hydrology The soil on the site is Wulfert and Durbin muck, according to South Florida Water Management District (SFWMD). See figure 3. A survey from United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) states the following regarding Durbin: “The Durbin series consists of very deep, very poorly drained, rapidly permeable soils in tidal areas along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of Peninsular Florida. They formed in well decomposed herbaceous organic material over sandy marine sediments. Near the type location, the mean annual temperature is about 72 degrees F., and the mean annual precipitation is about 55 inches. Slopes range from 0 to 1 percent.” (National Cooperative Soil Survey, March 2009). It states the following regarding Wulfert: “The Wulfert series consists of very deep, very poorly drained, rapidly permeable soils in tidal areas along the Gulf Coast. They formed in well decomposed organic material and underlying materials. Near the type location, the mean annual temperature is about 72 degrees F., and the mean annual precipitation is about 55 inches. Slopes range from 0 to 1 percent.” (National Cooperative Soil Survey, January 2004) The highlighted yellow is the subject property The highlighted parcels in white and black dashes are the two amended parcels 8 of 99 Page 5 of 13 Figure 3 The composite wetlands map shows a high 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 not within or near any wellfield protection zones. See Figure 5. The subject property is highlighted with a black border. 9 of 99 Page 6 of 13 Figure 5 1.7. Adjacent Existing Uses Below is a summary of the existing adjacent land uses in the general vicinity of the subject property: North – 153 acres of conserved vacant land owned by Martin County South – 43 acres of vacant land owned by Martin County East – 6 acres of a residential community, Jensen Beach Club West - Conserved vacant land owned by Martin County, part of the 153 acres to the north 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 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. 10 of 99 Page 7 of 13 (b) The proposed change would correct an inappropriately assigned land use designation; or Yes, it would. Environmentally sensitive lands acquired by the County shall be reclassified to the Institutional-Conservation land use designation, pursuant to Policy 4.13A.11(2), Comprehensive Growth Management Plan, Martin County, Fla. (2018). It would also make the site consistent with the surrounding properties to the north, south and west of the subject property, which are all designated as Public Conservation future land use. (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 subject property is owned by Martin County and the Board of Commissioners initiated the future land use amendment. Changing the property’s future land use designation to Public Conservation could improve the general health and welfare of the County residents, as well as benefit the environment. 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. Not applicable. The proposed change will conserve the land on the subject property. Criterion met. (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. 11 of 99 Page 8 of 13 No, it does not. The site is integrated within residential and urban areas and the proposed change will not allow development to occur in radial, strip, isolated or other related 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, it does not. Currently, the site is designated as Medium Density Residential future land use. However, the proposed change would result in the protection and conservation of natural resources such as wetlands, environmentally sensitive areas and other significant natural systems. 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 not require any additional public facilities or services because the amendment would convert the parcel into conservation land. Criterion met. (VII) Fails to maximize use of future public facilities and services. No, the proposed change would encourage the use of future public facilities and services. It would convert the land to Public Conservation future land use. 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 it will not. The proposed change is to convert the site to Public Conservation and it would not increase the demand for utilities, water/sewer systems and other services. 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, the proposed change will not discourage or inhibit infill development or redevelopment of existing neighborhoods/communities. The subject site is already a part of the existing neighborhood site plan, Jensen Beach Club, dedicated to be kept as a preserved area. 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 adjacent to a residential community and in proximity to other nearby residential lands. The proposed change would convert the land to Public Conservation future land use. Criterion met. 12 of 99 Page 9 of 13 (XII) Results in poor accessibility among linked or related land uses. No, this site and the proposed FLUM change to make the site Public Conservation do not result in poor accessibility. The proposed change will not result in changes to the road network. Rather, it will result in preserved land in proximity to other preserved lands that are all designated as conservation areas. Criterion met. (XIII) Results in the loss of significant amounts of functional open space. No, the proposed change will assign the Public Conservation future land use and add an additional layer of protection to a preserve area identified in the Jensen Beach Club site plan. It would not result in any loss of public open space but rather, preserve 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 and the proposed change. The proposed change would locate preserved/conserved land in proximity to other preserved lands. It will not impact existing habitat but rather, protect it. Criterion met. (II) Promotes the efficient and cost-effective provision or extension of public infrastructure and services. Yes, the proposed change for this site will not require the extension of public infrastructure and services because the amendment would allow for the subject parcel to be preserved, not developed. 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. Not applicable. The proposed change would not allow for any development to occur on the subject parcel. Since the proposed amendment would conserve/preserve the subject parcel, it will protect the environmental systems present at the property and will not impact transit, housing or other systems. (IV) Promotes conservation of water and energy. Yes, assigning the Public Conservation future land use to the subject parcel will prevent development requiring potable water and energy expenditures. Criterion met. (V) Preserves agricultural areas and activities, including silviculture, and dormant, unique, and prime farmlands and soils. The proposed change will have no impact on agricultural areas and activities. Criterion met. 13 of 99 Page 10 of 13 (VI) Preserves open space and natural lands and provides for public open space and recreation needs. Yes, this site and the proposed FLUM change will do that. The proposed change will designate the property as Public Conservation, thereby protecting the natural lands and preserving open space. Criterion met. (VII) Creates a balance of land uses based upon demands of residential population for the nonresidential needs of an area. The proposed FLUM change will not affect the residential and nonresidential balance of land uses. Criterion met. (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 preservation and conservatory land uses that are consistent with the existing and planned development pattern in the vicinity, and does not constitute sprawl. 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 Environmentally sensitive lands acquired by the County shall be reclassified to the Institutional- Conservation land use designation, pursuant to Policy 4.13A.11(2), Comprehensive Growth Management Plan, Martin County, Fla. (2018). Since the subject property was acquired by Martin County, the Board of Commissioners initiated a future land use amendment. Currently, the future land use designation of the subject property is Medium Density Residential. The following analysis will consider the potential future land use designation: Public Conservation. The Public Conservation future land use designation would be same as the future land use designation of the parcels to the north, south, and west of the subject parcel, which are all Public Conservation. It would also be compatible with the parcels to the east, which have the Medium Density Residential future land use and Limited Commercial future land use designations. The parcels east of the subject site are all part of the residential community Jensen Beach Club. Converting the subject site to Public Conservation would preserve the land, protecting the environmentally sensitive land that makes up the subject site. This land use would not only be compatible with the residential uses of Jensen Beach Club but it would also fulfill the Jensen Beach Club site plan (attached to this report), which marks the subject parcel as preservation land. Below is description from the CGMP of the Public Conservation future land use designation, extracted from Policy 4.13A.11, CGMP, Martin County, Fla. (2017). 1) Public Conservation Land Use (PC): The Public Conservation category recognizes publicly owned areas designed for conservation uses. In addition, privately owned land subject to perpetual easements as provided under 14 of 99 Page 11 of 13 Objective 4.5F may be designated Institutional Public Conservation. Only development compatible with conservation and passive recreation uses shall be permitted in the Public 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. 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, nearby. 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. See Figure 6, where the Green line represents the Sewer Forcemain, which is a pressurized sewer pipe line. The second one (b) is to show potable water main line, which is represented by a light blue line. a) Sewer Forcemain, shown in green b) Potable water, shown in blue Figure 6 The Public Conservation future land use designation permits only passive recreation. Any demand for water and sewer service will be minimal. 15 of 99 Page 12 of 13 2.5.1.2. Drainage Facilities The Public Conservation future land use designation does not permit development of the site requiring drainage facilities. 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 not cause a level of service problem. 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 Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation 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. 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. Schools A change from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation future land use designation will not require the provision of school facilities. 16 of 99 Page 13 of 13 2.5.2. Non-Mandatory Facilities 2.5.2.1. Libraries A change from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation future land use designation will not require the provision of library facilities. Final Analysis Public Conservation future land use would be the most appropriate designation for this parcel, considering the site’s proximity to other conservation/preserved lands. Additionally, the proposed amendment would fulfill the Policy 4.13A.11(2) requirement from the CGMP and would be consistent with the site plan of Jensen Beach Club. Considering all these factors, staff recommends changing the property’s land use designation from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation future land use designation. 3.

The regional planning council review and comments are limited to adverse effects on regional resources or facilities identified in the Strategic Regional Policy Plan (SRPP) and extrajurisdictional impacts that would be inconsistent with the comprehensive plan of any affected local government within the region. Council must provide any comments to the local government within 30 days of the receipt of the proposed amendments and must also send a copy of any comments to the state land planning agency. The amendment package from Martin County was received on November 19, 2018 and contains one Future Land Use Map (FLUM) amendment. This report includes a summary of the proposed amendment and Council comments. Summary of Proposed Amendment The proposed amendment is to change the future land use designation on a 10.13-acre parcel of land from Medium Density Residential 8 dwelling units per acre to Public Conservation. The subject property is located on the north side of NE Causeway Boulevard, immediately west of the Jensen Beach Club with NE Ocean Boulevard beyond to the east, on Hutchinson Island in Jensen Beach. The site is currently undeveloped. Adjacent Future Land Use designations are Medium Density Residential 8 dwelling units per acre to the east and Conservation to the north, west, and south (across NE Causeway Road). In July of 2018, the Martin County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) approved and accepted a quit-claim deed and obtained the subject property. The property is adjacent to the Jensen Beach Impoundment Area, which has a future land use designation of Public Conservation. The proposed amendment was initiated by the BOCC in order to assign the most Revision: 1-18-19 60 of 99 appropriate institutional designation to the subject property. The county staff reports indicates the proposed designation of Public Conservation is the most appropriate land use designation due to the site’s proximity to conservation lands. Additionally, the report indicates the County’s comprehensive plan requires that the future land use designation of environmentally sensitive land acquired by the County be changed to the Public Conservation designation during the next plan amendment cycle following acquisition. Regional Impacts No adverse effects on regional resources or facilities have been identified. Extrajurisdictional Impacts Council requested comments from local governments and organizations expressing an interest in reviewing the proposed amendment on November 21, 2018. No extrajurisdictional impacts have been identified. Conclusion No adverse effects on regional resources or facilities and no extrajurisdictional impacts have been identified. Recommendation Council should approve this report and authorize its transmittal to Martin County and the Florida Department of Economic Opportunity. Council Action – January 18, 2019 Commissioner Smith from Martin County moved approval of the staff recommendation. Commissioner Townsend from St. Lucie County seconded the motion, which carried unanimously.

CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order at 7:05 pm by Jim Moir, Chairman. A quorum was noted. 2. CONSENT AGENDA A. Approval of Consent Agenda/Minutes of October 4, 2018 * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Foley to approve the Consent Agenda and Minutes of the LPA meeting of October 4, 2018. ** SECONDED by Mr. Watson Carried UNANIMOUSLY 3. UNFINISHED BUSINESS 1. None A. Public Hearings 1. None 77 of 99 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 18, 2018 5 Ms. Storey commented that staff was asked to address the issue of distance to bring it forward, and get input from the LPA. She noted that the 1,320 ft. distance related to a ½ (mile) block. Public Comment: - None Mr. Moir called for staff’s recommendation. Ms. Cullum indicated staff’s recommendation is to amend the LDRs to clarify exceptions and variances so that exceptions are no more than three transversing lots and are less than 700 ft. in length, and the Board of County Commissioners can grant variances if they determine conditions are met for a legal lot of record, so if the exception is done in a lot split it can be determined by the County Engineer and if it was a legal lot of record not created by a lot split that could go to the Board. * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Watson to approve staff’s recommendation with the alternative open road at ¼ mile, 1,320 ft. over multiple lots for the variance. ** SECONDED by Mr. Foley Mr. Moir and Mr. Banfi Opposed ** MOTION CARRIED 3-2. Mr. Moir was opposed and thought ¼ mile is too long a distance and not limiting the number of lot splits is asking for problems, they need to be limited. Open road are expensive but going cheap is trouble. Mr. Banfi commented on lot splits and how they occur with lack of access and that you want to have easements to have a minimum width and roads open for a purpose such as egress and ingress i.e., granting to parent/child lot splits. There needs to be a plan to identify examples of large lots with no access, and an easy start would be to handle two lots and give a simple easement. 3. Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-14, Dixie Highway, Rio – Request to consider a Future Land Use Map change from General Institution and General Commercial to solely General Commercial on +-0.28 acres located at 977 NE Dixie Highway, Rio. Requested by: Martin County Community Redevelopment Agency Presented by: Maria Jose, M.S., Planner, Growth Management Dept. 78 of 99 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 18, 2018 6 *** Notification to surrounding property owners was provided for both items: CMP 18-14, Jensen Beach Impoundment Extension and notification to surrounding property owners was provided for CMP 18-15. Ms. Jose reviewed the request and indicated the 0.28 acre property located on NE Dixie Highway in the Rio CRA has a future land use designation of General Commercial and General Institutional. The BoCC has initiated a CPA to change the Future Land Use designation to solely General Commercial. Staff recommends the future land use change on the property from General Commercial and General Institutional to solely General Commercial, to eliminate a dual future land use designation. Mr. Foley asked why not change the FLU designation to General Institutional. Ms. Jose displayed the surrounding area(s) future land use and explained that staff analysis considered the existing and surrounding land use to recommend General Commercial, she provided permitted uses, and due to the small size of the parcel, large scale or intense commercial would not be feasible. Mr. Banfi confirmed the Fire Station was formerly located on the property. Public Comment: - None * MOTION – MOVED by Ms. Hall to accept staff’s recommendation regarding CPA 18-14, Dixie Highway, Rio to change the Future Land Use Map from General Institution and General Commercial on +-0.28 acres located at 977 NE Dixie Highway, Rio, FL. ** SECONDED – by Mr. Banfi CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY 4.

Public Comments: None * MOTION – MOVED by Ms. Hall to approve staff’s request to withdraw this request from the agenda. ** SECONDED by Mr. Banfi Carried UNANIMOUSLY 79 of 99 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 18, 2018 7 5. Comprehensive Plan Amendment 18-15, Jensen Beach Impoundment Extension – Request to consider a Future Land Use Map change from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation on a parcel consisting of +-10.13 acres located on NE Causeway Boulevard, west of the Jensen Beach Club on Hutchinson Island, Jensen Beach, FL. Requested by: Nicki van Vonno, AICP, Director, Growth Management Dept. Presented by: Maria Jose, M.S. Planner, Growth Management Dept. Ms. Jose reviewed the request initiated by the BoCC to assign the most appropriate institutional future land use designation on the property. The subject parcel was displayed (pg. 2/13). Staff considered Public Conservation future land use and recommended a future land use change from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation. Ms. Jose reviewed the surrounding parcels and indicated that Public Conservation recognizes public owned areas designated for conservation uses and only development compatible with conservation and passive recreation shall be permitted in the Public Conservation category. This may include access, parking, and other facilities that enable the management of the resource and the public’s enjoyment of it. Staff recommended the Public Conservation designation will be the most appropriate designation of the parcel considering the site’s proximity to conservation lands, and its location to the Jensen Beach Club residential community. Mr. Foley questioned public versus passive usage. Ms. Jose explained that Public Conservations allows only passive usage and provided examples. Public Comments: Barbara Stamm, a resident of Fairwinds Cove, questioned what it will do to the property values on the south side of the Causeway due to public access, and construction. 80 of 99 Local Planning Agency Meeting- Minutes –October 18, 2018 8 Mr. Moir indicated it will match all the other properties around it to the north, preserve it as is, and no longer have medium density homes. He did not believe it would have any effect on her property. Mr. Banfi commented it was part of the Jensen Beach Club and he spoke of past history on the property, and the impact of transfer of gross density. Ms. Storey indicted that transfer of density in the past was often specifically noted as part of a Development Order. * MOTION – MOVED by Mr. Watson to accept staff’s recommendation for a Future Land Use Map change from Medium Density Residential to Public Conservation relating to CPA 18-15, Jensen Beach Impoundment Extension. ** SECONDED by Ms. Hall CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY B.

Pierce, FL 34946 772-466-4055 Americans are using their phones in riskier ways while driving, worsening the nation’s crash crisis, according to a new report. Although overall cellphone use on the road is down, drivers were “observ- ed manipulating their phones” 57 per- cent more often in 2018 than they were in 2014, according to research by the In- surance Institute for Highway Safety. That means people are putting themselves at significantly higher risk of dying in a car crash. “People are talking on the phone less than they were in 2014 and they’re ma- nipulating it more, which is things that include texting and potentially brows- ing the internet or potentially using it for navigation, audio, music,” said Da- vid Kidd, senior research scientist for the Highway Loss Data Institute, a sib- ling organization to IIHS. Using the most recently available figures, the insurance institute esti- mated that about 800 people were killed in crashes in 2017 because of drivers who were using their phones for something other than a call. The findings are significant because researchers have historically found it difficult to gauge the effects of distract- ed driving. But IIHS experts were able to track the problem by positioning researchers on the side of the road at traffic lights, straight sections of roads and round- abouts. The researchers recorded what driv- ers were doing when they passed by. About 1 in 4 drivers were doing something other than focusing on the road, a figure that includes phone use, smoking and eating, according to the study. The study adds credence to suspi- cions that the nation’s spike in deadly crashes over the past few years is due in part to smartphone use. Distracted driving can occur for other reasons, too, including the use of vehicle infotain- ment systems. The best available data suggests that using your phone for something other than a call while driving in- creases your risk of a crash by about 66 percent, Kidd said. “When you’re taking your eyes off the roadway and you don’t see what’s coming ahead of you, you’re less able to react to what’s ahead of you, and that can result in crashes,” Kidd said. U.S. crash deaths fell slightly in 2017 but still reflected the second-deadliest year on the road in the past decade. The number of people killed in traffic crashes in 2017 was 37,133, down 1.8 percent from the year before, ac- cording to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Figures from 2018 have not yet been released. The IIHS study was conducted in northern Virginia. Kidd said there’s no reason to believe northern Virginia drivers use their phones more or less than the average American. “I don’t have any reason to think it’s any different because of how ubiqui- tous smartphones are now,” he said. Study: Cellphone use while driving is soaring Risky phone use while driving is on the rise, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. LM OTERO/AP Devices’ temptations can prove to be deadly Nathan Bomey USA TODAY YORK HAVEN, Pa. – A Pennsylva- nia man says his emotional support alligator helps him deal with his de- pression. Joie Henney, 65, said his registered emotional support animal named Wally likes to snuggle and give hugs, despite being a 5-foot-long alligator. The York Haven man said he received approval from his doctor to use Wally as his emotional support animal after not wanting to go on medication for depression, he told Philly.com. “I had Wally, and when I came home and was around him, it was all OK,” he said. “My doctor knew about Wally and figured it works, so why not?” Wally was rescued from outside Orlando at 14 months old and is still growing; Henney said Wally could be 16 feet long one day. Henney says Wal- ly eats chicken wings and shares an indoor plastic pond with a smaller res- cue alligator named Scrappy. Wally, who turns 4 this year, is a big teddy bear, in Henney’s words. The cold-blooded reptile likes to rest his snout on Henney’s, and “he likes to give hugs,” he said. The alligator has never bitten any- one and is even afraid of cats, accord- ing to Henney. Henney acknowledged that Wally is still a dangerous wild animal and could probably tear his arm off, but says he’s never been afraid of him. Henney’s background also indi- cates a comfort with creatures like Wally. He hosted a show called “Joie Henney’s Outdoors” on ESPN Out- doors from 1989 to 2000, according to the York Daily Record. Henney frequently takes Wally out for meet-and-greets at places like sen- ior centers and minor-league baseball games. “He’s just like a dog,” Henney told a woman at a recent outing to a senior center. “He wants to be loved and pet- ted.” Pa. man says emotional support alligator helps his depression ASSOCIATED PRESS Joie Henney holds up Wally, a 4-foot-long emotional support alligator, at the SpiriTrust Lutheran Village in York, Pa.
