Summary Explanation and Background:
On January 6, 2021, the Port St. John Dependent Special District Board met to hear the request. Unexpectedly, approximately 30 members of the public attended the meeting. The PSJ Board meetings are held at the PSJ Library in a small conference room. This room could not safely accommodate this large crowd. Due to safety concerns raised by the board, the item was tabled to February 10th meeting date in order to hold the meeting in a location better equipped to accommodate a large crowd with appropriate social distancing.
In coordination with the District 1 Commission Office and County Management, and in order to maintain the recommended CDC precautions wherein providing a safe environment for our customers, board members, and staff, all future meetings of the PSJ board will temporarily be held at the Government Center, 2725 Judge Fran Jamieson Way, Building C, Commission Room, Viera, Florida. The temporary location change to the Viera Government Center provides opportunity to facilitate the public meetings with a larger meeting room and more resources to allow attendees to follow safe distancing measures and other safety recommendations of the CDC. Staff is also arranging for the meetings to be televised and/or streamed online to give those interested a chance to watch the meeting but who do not feel comfortable attending in person.
Language about the temporary change of location will be added to the advertisements, courtesy notices, and calendar on the County’s webpage.
Accordingly, on January 11, 2021, the Planning and Zoning Board tabled the request to its February 22, 2021, meeting.
