BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
This application is a request by Jensen Beach Holdings, LLC, for approval of a revised major final site plan for a residential storage facility project on two parcels totaling approximately 4.4 acres located at 528 NE Jensen Beach Boulevard in Jensen Beach, on the south side of NE Jensen Beach Boulevard approximately 700 feet east of NE Pinecrest Lakes Boulevard. This site was originally approved for a commercial project known as the Jensen Beach Professional Center, which did not proceed. The currently proposed project consists of one (1) two-story climate controlled building adjacent to Jensen Beach Boulevard and two (2) one-story buildings in the rear of the property for a total of 92,700 square feet of rentable space containing approximately 850 residential storage units. Included in this application is a request for a Certificate of Public Facilities Reservation.
The subject site consists of two parcels, has a future land use designation of Commercial Office/Residential (COR) and is zoned COR-1, Commercial Office/Residential District. In addition to the zoning standards, the application will be required to comply with the commercial design standards, landscape buffering requirements for commercial development adjacent to residential uses, and applicable Comprehensive Plan requirements for the COR future land use designation. Access is proposed via NE Jensen Beach Boulevard and the applicant has proposed a reduced parking rate and provided a parking rate adjustment analysis for consideration. The project is located within the Primary Urban Services District and will be serviced by Martin County Utilities for water and wastewater services.
This application meets the threshold criteria for a major development, pursuant to Section 10.11.B., LDR, Martin County, Fla. (2016), and requires two public hearings.

Suggested procedures to follow during consideration of this matter are attached.
