Rezoning - Fort Pierce Aggregate Facility - 2432-123-0001-000-8
This item was moved to 7d.
Mr. Broderick disclosed that he had a conversation with Brandon Creagan in the Planning department.
Chairman Creyaufmiller disclosed that he met with the River Oaks at Ten Mile Creek Homeowner's Association and he also met with Planning, Brandon Creagan and Rebeca Guerra.
Mr. Creagan gave an overview of the application and answered questions from the Board on berm height, buffers, concrete barrier, fencing, composition of access road, and stacking agreement.
Emily O'Mahoney, representative from 2GHO, gave a detailed presentation and answered questions from the Board on the activity in the storage area, dust mitigation plan, and the height of aggregate piles.
Douglas Steven Eakins, Jr., owner of D.S.E. Holdings, explained that the aggregate piles solidify and the dust is in the processing and traveled area. Mr. Eakins said the closest residential site to their West Palm Beach facility is 2,000 feet away and of all three facilities that he runs, there has been no violations or complaints from the residences.
Mr. Broderick suggested that to improve noise penetration and dust concerns to the neighborhood and school, that the applicant consider concrete fencing.
Mr. Eakins stated that the piercing truck noise will not be buffered by a concrete wall and the dust generated will not affect the residences and school because it is too far away. Mr. Eakins said the facility will crush concrete 4 days a week and they hardly crush on Saturday because the public comes in to drop off concrete. Mr. Eakins explained that the aggregate goes into road projects and pavers and taken by trucks to job sites.
Mr. Sanders complimented the applicant on listening to the community and modifying their plan. Mr. Sanders stated he visited the West Palm Beach facility and he was surprised how little dust was created and how the operation is run. Mr. Sanders expressed concerns with the line of sight from the 2nd story townhomes in River Oaks.
Jonathan Ricketts, Civil Engineer of Record, stated that the operation should not be visible from the 2nd floor of the townhomes because from the top of the berm plus the height of the fence will be 30 feet.
Chairman Creyaufmiller stated he visited the West Palm Beach site and talked with the neighbors, and he said there was not much dust and the neighbors did not have many concerns.
Harold Melvlle, attorney, representing River Oaks at Ten Mile Creek Homeowner's Association, stated the HOA is opposed to the project. Mr. Melville said normally you would not see heavy industrial zoning next to residential zoning without buffering. Mr. Melville provided the Board with a handout with maps and ordinances showing the incorrect annexation of the subject property. Mr. Melville asked the Board to deny the rezoning request and asked the Board to not compound the problem that already exists. Mr. Melville said the city should rezone the property to the proper zoning because it is not compatible with the bordering residential and institutional use.
Mr. Sweeney stated since no one was here at the initial time of the rezoning, he will not speculate and the purview of the Board is to change the zoning based on the application received.
Board discussion ensued on the original zoning and proposed rezoning boundary lines.
John Cherveny, developer and president of River Oaks at Ten Mile Creek Homeowners Association, stated they were never notified of any zoning changes and they were forced to be annexed into the City of Fort Pierce. Mr. Cherveny said he is having a hard time selling the 18 units that are left.
Jean David Cidel, realtor for River Oaks at Ten Mile Creek, stated he is losing potential clients due to the disclosure.
Melanie Trewyn, teacher, expressed concerns with the effect of high school students being exposed to silica containing dust.
Jay Stewart, Palm Lakes Gardens homeowners association president, expressed concerns with the dust.
Beth Coke, Palm Lakes Garden resident, expressed concerns with the noise and dust.
Robert Gehrig, Palm Lakes Garden resident, stated he can hear the diesel engines and back up alarms from Precast and he said the dust will increase from crushing concrete. Mr. Gehrig stated that the errors from the city have stripped the serenity from the community and adding an industrial plant will make matters worse.
Atie Makhoul, Palm Lakes Garden resident, stated that before 6:00 AM, he hears a horrendous horn that signals the shift start at Precast. Mr. Makhoul also complained about the generator noise and the shining of the lights.
Nick Makris, Palm Lakes Garden resident, has concerns that the walls and berms won't break the dust and there is noc cure for silica getting into your lungs. Mr. Makris said the city will be compounding the issue by putting in another industrial site.
John Ladden, Palm Lakes Garden resident, expressed concerns with the dust.
Dennis Petersen, Palm Lakes Garden resident, stated the residents can't sell their homes because nothing can be done about the issues with Precast and they would like the city to help the residents and students.
Keith Eaton, Palm Lakes Garden resident and Real Estate Appraiser, showed the Board a picture of the view of the Precast plant from his backyard and he stated this is potential external obsolescence.
Ms. Guerra reiterated that the issue at hand is the proposed use and changes from the underlying zoning district of St. Lucie County's Heavy Industrial to PD - Planned Development.
Emily O'Mahoney, representative from 2GHO, indicated where the heavy industrial uses would be located and clarified that an office building with a warehouse and outdoor equipment storage will be located to the east.
Dennis Corrick, attorney representing the applicant from Dean, Mead, Minton & Zwemer Law Firm, stated that the Planning Board meeting is not the forum for doing a facial challenge to the City of Fort Pierce Comprehensive Plan. Mr. Corrick said the 2007 and 2010 Comprehensive Plan map showed the property as Industrial Heavy Land Use and the effected parties had the right to challenge the Comprehensive Plan Changes within 30 days. Mr. Corrick stated the applicant has changed the zoning to PUD, precisely to do the buffering that Mr. Melville was talking about. Mr. Corrick said the applicant made significant changes to the design to accommodate the neighbors.
Mr. Melville stated the project is not compatible with low density residential and there is no obligation for the Board to approve the zoning request. Mr. Melville explained that the zoning is discretionary and the Board can put any type of limitations on it. Mr. Melville asked the Board to not compound the problem by making additional errors and to think about the residences.
Mr.Burdge asked if the Board can extend the landscape plan from 2 to 5 years and change the stacking request to 30 feet.
Mr. Sweeney stated typically with a PD there is great latitude that is allowed.
Ms. Guerra explained that the code states that outdoor materials are permitted to be stored at a maximum of 15 feet in height and aggregate material has a much greater risk of spreading outwards as opposed to outdoor storage containers.
Mr. Broderick expressed concerns with reaching an equitable solution to say the applicant's rights are superior simply because the property was annexed incorrectly.
Board discussion ensued on the past zoning errors, internal buffering and health effects from the dust.
Mr. Sanders stated he had some recommendations to add to staff's conditions for the motion. He stated the applicant has come a long way in meeting the spirit and intent of providing a buffer. Mr. Sanders said it is more important to have these conditions in writing, so people are clear that these are provisions they have to be abided by. Mr. Sanders said it is unfortunate that the project to the south has not honored their site plan and there is no enforcement mechanism in place and there is dust blowing from the 60 acres of open ground because of lack of caring by the developer. Mr. Sanders stated that this applicant has a dust control plan in place and they are about 150 feet away in meeting the buffering of the original AR1 zoning. Mr. Sanders said we are fortunate to have a reasonable applicant that is trying to work with the city on coming up with solutions.
Mr. Broderick suggested moving the line of demarcation further away from the school and residential development and increase the landscape buffers.
Motion was made by Bob Burdge, and seconded by Michael Broderick to forward a recommendation of approval to the City Commission with the following eleven (11) conditions.

Failed
Mr. Sanders explained that he overlayed the site plan over the aerial and if the weigh station was moved 150 feet to the west, it would be within the original industrial zoned land.
Board discussion ensued on modifying the conditions by creating a 15 foot berm and moving the unprocessed material line approximately 150 feet to the west.
Mr. Corrick stated on the site plan it says eastern limit of aggregate recycling and if that line was moved to the quarter section line that would accomplish the move to the west.
