Re
Voluntary Annexation - The NE Corner of S 25th ST and Cortez Blvd
Submitted For:
Kev Freeman

SUBJECT:

Legislative Hearing - Ordinance 25-032 - Review and approval of a Voluntary Annexation by owner, Tim Morley of MRM Ventures LLC, to extend the territorial limits of the City of Fort Pierce, Florida, to include one (1) parcel at or near the Northeast Corner of South 25th Street and Cortez Boulevard. The proposed City Future Land Use designation is Residential Low Density (RL) and Zoning designation of Single-Family Intermediate Density (R-2). Parcel ID: 2421-233-0002-000-9. FIRST READING

SUMMARY:

Project #: PZANN2025-00001

Request for review of application for an Annexation of one (1) parcel into the City. The subject property has a St. Lucie County Future Land Use RU, Residential Urban, and a zoning classification of RS-4, Residential, Single-Family, 4 units du/ac. To ensure consistency with Policy 1.11.5 of the City’s Comprehensive Plan, the proposed Future Land Use designation for the parcels is RL, Residential Low Density, with a Zoning classification of R-2, Single-Family Intermediate Density.

The current taxable value of the property is approximately $839,500. Should the Application for Annexation be approved, and future development of the vacant land occurs, the property could create a new source of ad-valorem tax revenue annually to the City of Fort Pierce, depending on the millage rate per year, which currently is 6.9000.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff has confirmed that the property is located within unincorporated St. Lucie County and is contiguous to the Fort Pierce City municipal boundary and within the FPUA service area.

Staff’s recommendation is for the City Commission to Approve the proposed annexation application.
