BACKGROUND/RELATED STRATEGIC GOAL:
On January 12, 2021, the Board adopted Ordinance 1152 creating a freestanding urban service district and adopting sub-area restrictions applicable to the ±250 acres of industrial land where the subject site is located.
On January 12, 2021, the Board adopted Ordinance 1153 which was a Future Land Use Map Amendment assigning the Industrial future land use designation on the eastern ±250 acres of a larger ±499-acre property. That same ordinance assigned the Agricultural future land use designation on the western ±249 acres. The Board also adopted a concurrent rezoning, Resolution 21-1.14, amending the Zoning Atlas to assign the Limited Industrial (LI) and AG-20 A zoning districts.
On February 1, 2022, the Board adopted Resolution 22-2.3 amending the Zoning Atlas from LI to a Planned Unit Development (PUD) zoning on ±179.9 acres of the ±250 acres of Industrial land.
On July 20, 2022, the Board acquired ±29.8 acres within the ±250 acres of Industrial land to develop a County Operations and Maintenance Facility. The subject ±29.8 acres retain the LI zoning district.
Staff seeks approval to amend the text of Policy 4.1B.2(2), CGMP, as it applies to the ±29.8 acres purchased for the County Operations and Maintenance Facility. The text quoted below would require the ±29.8 acres to be part of the PUD and would require the trips generated from the site to be included in the net inbound AM peak hour trip limit.
(2) The following restrictions shall be applied to the tract of real property designated as Industrial on the Future Land Use Map and described in Ordinance No. 1153.
(a) Uses on the subject property shall be limited to nonresidential uses. Residential uses shall not be permitted.
(b) Uses on the property shall be consistent with the future land use designations for the property and the applicable land use policies of the Martin County Comprehensive Growth Management Plan (CGMP).
(c) The net inbound AM peak hour trips generated by all uses shall be limited to 950 trips, as demonstrated during the review of final site plans consistent with Article 5, Adequate Public Facilities, Division 3, Traffic Impact Analysis Land Development Regulations.
(d) All future applications for development approval shall be processed as a Planned Unit Development (PUD).
(e) The building footprint of any individual warehouse or distribution facility shall not exceed 1,050,000 square feet.
(f) No final site plan shall be approved, which provides access to SW 96th Street from that portion of the property designated as Industrial on the Future Land Use Map, unless it is restricted to provide access for emergency purposes only.
Staff also seeks approval to initiate an amendment to the zoning atlas to change the ±29.8 acres from LI, Limited Industrial to GI, General Industrial or the most appropriate zoning district.
