St. Lucie County commissioners have approved a potable-water agreement with P1 Motor Club that commits the developer to construct a water transmission facility along State Road 70 without county funding. The agreement provides bulk potable-water service equivalent to 73 residential connections, representing approximately 19,720 gallons per day, according to the staff presentation. Alongside the agreement, commissioners approved a resolution allowing the county to accept ownership and operation of the transmission facility once completed. Under the arrangement, P1 Motor Club will be responsible for the full delivery process for the infrastructure, including its design, engineering, construction, inspection, testing and certification. The agreement also requires construction security and maintenance security for ongoing items associated with the facility. The item was added to the regular agenda and was approved after a public-comment opportunity. No opposition or further board discussion was recorded before the vote. The approval establishes the framework for the county to provide potable-water service to the development while receiving the State Road 70 transmission infrastructure through developer-led construction. The meeting record did not provide a construction schedule or a stated value for the facility.
