BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
McArthur Golf Club, LLC has requested approval of a revised major final site plan to add an 18-hole golf course to the existing McArthur Golf Club. The approximate 518-acre parcel is located west of the existing golf club and will add to the approximate 456 developed acres located west of US Highway One at the intersection of SE Osprey Street in Hobe Sound. Included is a Request for a Certificate of Public Facilities Reservation.
The MacArthur Club received master site plan approval for the existing golf course on April 10, 2001. The original approved plans were for an 18-hole golf course, clubhouse and golf cottages. The revised final site plan reduces the amount of golf cottages to 4 on the existing site but makes no other changes to the existing club and golf course.
The majority of the site is designated for Rural Density future land use and zoned RE-2A, Rural Estate District. A portion of the property has a Low Density future land use designation and is zoned A-1, Small Farms District. A separate application has been submitted to amend the County Zoning Atlas to change the zoning district classification from A-1 to RS-5, Low Density Residential District on the portion of the property with the Low Density future land use designation.
The existing McArthur Golf Club utilizes existing permitted wells supplemented by Irrigation Quality (IQ) water from South Martin Regional Utilities (SMRU). The new golf course has been designed to minimize water use by integrating preserve areas and native landscape areas.
