Quasi-Judicial Hearing - Review and approval of an application for Conditional Use with New Construction submitted by Property Owners, Richard and Diane Slater, and Representative, Michael A. Smith, to construct a single-family home that will be approximately 33 feet in height from FEMA Based Flood Elevation at 1629 Thumb Point Drive in Fort Pierce, FL. The property is zoned Single-Family Low Density (R-1). Parcel ID: 2401-700-0002-000-0.

• The applicant is requesting the review and approval of a Conditional Use to construct a single-family home that will be approximately 33 feet in height from FEMA Based Flood Elevation. The applicant is requesting an additional five (5) feet in height to meet their desired interior design without increasing the footprint on the lot. The applicant feels that the proposed height will assimilate into the neighborhood and be in keeping with the architecture and height of the surrounding homes.

The requested Conditional Use with New Construction is compatible with the surrounding neighborhood and is generally consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code with appropriate restrictions. Therefore, Staff recommends APPROVAL.

• Approval with alternate conditions
• Denial
