PROCEDURES: Plan Amendment
BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
In 2007, Martin County acquired the subject property from the Pine School as part of an abandoned right-of-way agreement. On November 12, 2024, the Board of County Commissioners (Board) approved Resolution 24-11.3, which added the subject property to the list of properties to be conveyed to the Martin County Community Land Trust (CLT) for the purposes of developing affordable housing.
The subject property is designated with the Institutional-General future land use, which does not allow for any residential density. Additionally, the subject property is located within the Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) boundary of Hobe Sound.
