MISCELLANEOUS REPORTS
a.
Update on Bed & Breakfast Land Use
Rebeca Guerra, Interim Planning Director presented an update on Bed & Breakfast Land Use informational packet which included how the State of Florida, Department of Business & Professional Regulation defines Bed & Breakfast; how the City of Fort Pierce Zoning defines Bed & Breakfast under the Edgartown Overlay Zoning District Regulations; and how other local municipalities and counties compare based on their size. Ms. Guerra also outlined Conditions for Approval for Bed & Breakfast establishments within the City of Fort Pierce.
Bed & Breakfast establishments are currently permitted in three residential districts and five commercial districts – one with conditional use.
The City Commission discussion continued regarding the Bed & Breakfast use designation within the City of Fort Pierce. Areas of concern discussed included the requirement of the property as being owner-occupied or having a full-time on-site manager; a clear delineation between the short term rental regulations and Bed & Breakfast regulations; clear regulations for the conditional legal permitted use; fire suppression and safety requirements; state and city licenses; permitted use time/term limits for visitors, etc. Also discussed were the zoned areas in which this designated use would be approved; potential impact on residential neighbors, neighborhoods and on historic districts.
The Planning Department will continue further research on this topic to clearly define the legal permitted use and present back to the City Commission at a later date.

COMMENTS FROM THE CITY MANAGER

COMMENTS FROM THE COMMISSION
Commissioner Alexander expressed concern with the recent dog issues and additionally. Commissioner Alexander would like a report of the incident from the compound.
Commissioner Perona would like to report that the St Lucie County Fire District Retired Member Recognition Program honored Commissioner Alexander for his tireless dedication and service. With regard to the recent dog issues, Commissioner Perona requests that the City Manager investigate and present a final report outlining the specific activities/actions of City of Fort Pierce Staff to determine if their actions were in accordance with the policies as set forth by this Commission; to determine if the Commission failed in some way; or, if new policies need to be set to prevent a reoccurrence from ever happening again.
Commissioner Sessions: With regard to the dog issues, the loss of life demands the need for a full investigation by the City of Fort Pierce. A review of what could have been done or should have been done and what had failed to be done needs to be defined. The Agency responsible is a Partner of the City of Fort Pierce and that makes the City of Fort Pierce responsible to investigate exactly what happened; to make sure it never happens again.
Commissioner Sessions also expressed concern about the recent alleged abuse of a dog in our community. While he understands the outcry for justice, this may not be the proper forum for the animal advocates to bring their concerns as it may fall under the jurisdiction of the State’s Attorney Office to pursue criminal charges.
Commissioner Sessions acknowledged the great accomplishment of the Marine Clean-Up Initiative and the outpouring of support by the community for their efforts with the Moore's Creek Clean-up. This is a wonderful community event.
Commissioner Johnson: With regard to the dog issues, Commissioner Johnson echoes the concerns and need for answers expressed by the other Commissioners. Commissioner Johnson acknowledges there are many volunteers whose work is much appreciated, but regarding this incident, there remains unanswered questions.
Commissioner Johnson also would like to recognize and thank all those involved with the Moore's Creek Clean Up project and expressed his appreciation for the efforts to preserve a precious resource. He would also like to acknowledge our Public Works Crews for their efforts to make our city beautiful.
Commissioner Johnson recognized the start of the transition from the Tiki Bar to Crabby’s. It’s going to make a wonderful impact on the City of Fort Pierce. They propose to open in one year.
Mayor Hudson:
Mayor Hudson expressed her appreciation for the advocates that came forward to discuss the dog issues.
