PRESET:
PROCEDURES: Quasi-Judicial
BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
The subject 32.26-acre property is located immediately north of and adjacent to the South Florida Gateway PUD which is within a Free-Standing Urban Service District. The PUD is located west of SW Kanner Highway, approximately 0.6 miles south of the intersection of SW Kanner Highway and SW 96th Street in Stuart. The subject property contains no native upland habitat or wetlands.
On December 5, 2023, the subject property was added to the existing Freestanding Urban Service District (CPA 23-01) and the Future Land Use was changed from Agricultural to Industrial (CPA 22-12).
Construction of the existing 184-acre (+/-) South Florida Gateway PUD, which is nearing completion, contains infrastructure development including the extension of water and sewer lines, stormwater management systems and service roads with direct access to SW Kanner Highway.
This application proposes adding the 32.26-acre property to the South Florida Gateway PUD. Easements are previously approved and planned to allow utilities and access to this 32-acre site by way of SW Gateway Place. A separate application will be required to update the infrastructure final site plan.
This item has been scheduled for consideration by the Local Planning Agency on June 6th, 2024, and the recommendation will be provided to the Board of County Commissioners.

LEGAL SUFFICIENCY REVIEW:
Because this request involves the application of a policy specific application and site, it is a quasi- judicial decision. Quasi-judicial proceedings must be conducted with more formality than a legislative proceeding. In quasi-judicial proceedings, parties are entitled - as a matter of due process - to cross examine witnesses, present evidence, demand that witnesses testify under oath, and demand a decision that is based on a correct application of the law and competent substantial evidence in the record.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
RECOMMENDATION
1. Move that the Board receive and file the agenda item and its attachments including the staff report as Exhibit 1.
2. Move that the Board adopt the Resolution approving the rezoning from A-2, Agricultural District to Planned Unit Development and approve the Second Amendment to the South Florida Gateway PUD Zoning Agreement including the Revised Master Site Plan.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATIONS
Direct staff accordingly.
