The City of Port St. Lucy held a regular City Council meeting on August 24, 2026, addressing multiple procurement and community issues. Key procurement-related discussions included approval of a supplemental agreement with the Florida Department of Transportation for intersection improvements at Southwest Gatlin Boulevard and Southwest Savona Boulevard, and several resolutions reimposing and adjusting fees for stormwater management, residential street lighting, and solid waste services. The council also approved amendments to the comprehensive plan and zoning regulations, including a rezoning request for a 33.23-acre parcel to develop a sports and recreation master planned unit development (MPUD) with conditions addressing noise and buffering concerns.
