Legislative Hearing - Ordinance 26-005 - Review and approval of a Voluntary Annexation by owner, Tony Acerra, to extend the territorial limits of the City of Fort Pierce, Florida, to include one (1) parcel containing 0.19 acres, generally located at or near 2528 South Ocean Drive. The proposed City Future Land Use is Low Density Residential (RL) and the proposed Zoning is Single Family Low Density Zone (R-1). Parcel ID: 2413-501-0154-000-6. FIRST READING.

Project # PZANN2025-00006

The applicant has requested review and approval of a voluntary application for the annexation of (1) parcel, containing 0.19 acres, into the City. If annexed, the property would have a City Future Land Use Designation of RL,  Low Density Residential, and a City Zoning of R-1, Single-Family Low Density Zone. The subject property has a St. Lucie County Future Land Use Designation of RS, Residential Suburban, 2 du/ac, and a St. Lucie County Zoning designation of HIRD, Hutchinson Island Residential District.
 
The current taxable value of the property is approximately $27,860. Should the application for Annexation be approved, and future development of the 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.
 

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

Staff recommends the City Commission approve the proposed voluntary annexation application.
