Port St. Lucie says no to hundreds of homes, yes to preserving land

Port St. Lucie has been growing fast, building new homes, schools, and shopping centers at a rapid pace. "I know there's a lot of construction around here, so there's got to be a lot of people moving to the area," Port St. Lucie resident Scott Herron said. More than 50,000 people have moved here since 2020, bringing the population to about 260,000. But city leaders are now pumping the breaks. Making it clear they're against a proposal that would rezone 464 acres near Glades Cut Off Road and the C-24 Canal for hundreds of new homes. "There's no way I'm going to approve more rooftops to come before St. Lucie. I wasnt in support of it then. I'm not going to be in support of it now. We don't need to be adding rooftops," Port St Lucie city council said in their meeting August 25th. So instead, the city is looking for ways to balance the boom. Rather than approving more homes, council members are focusing on buying land for green space, like the 104 acres at Rosser Lakes.
