We heard you
Questions residents are asking, and the answers.
Residents have written to the City about water, power, sound, neighbors, safety, traffic and more. Each topic below starts with the answer. Follow the link for the detail and sources.
Water and cooling
Residents ask: How much water will cooling use? Could the aquifer or neighbors’ wells be affected? What about drought and sinkholes?
Cooling is planned to run in a closed loop supplied from the property’s reservoir, and a state-required water review decides how much water can be used.
Florida law (§373.262) bars a water allocation for a data center of 50 megawatts or more if it would harm the area’s water resources, and at 100,000 gallons a day or more it requires disclosure of all sources, amounts and losses, a conservation plan and a public hearing. Engineering sizes the system, and the South Florida Water Management District permits the amounts. Groundwater and sinkhole risk are part of that review, since Florida sits on limestone. The draft conditions add a cooling-water plan, periodic testing and reporting, and a prohibition or cap on routine use of municipal drinking water for cooling.
Electric bills and power
Residents ask: Will my bill go up? Who pays for new substations, lines and generation? How many megawatts? Will storms or brownouts get worse?
The data center pays for what serves it, and Florida law keeps the risk of nonpayment off other customers.
Florida law (§366.043) requires each large customer, 50 megawatts or more at one site, to bear its own full cost of service: connection, new transmission, new generation and other infrastructure. FPL’s approved rate adds a charge for new generation, a monthly minimum bill, a 20-year minimum contract and credit-based security, and the customer builds and owns its substation. The rule does not set future rates for other households. FPL’s system-impact study sets the load and the costs before service begins, and the Public Service Commission is reviewing FPL’s October 1, 2026 filing under the new law.
Sound, lighting and operations
Residents ask: How loud will it be at night, including low-frequency hum? When are generators tested? Will lights spill onto neighbors?
Sound is managed with distance, equipment placement and enclosures, and measured against limits written into the approval.
The draft conditions set minimum setbacks of 300 feet for buildings and 400 feet for generators and mechanical equipment from residential property. They cap sound at the property line and at residential boundaries in dBA and dBC with separate night limits, limit routine generator testing to weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., and cap light at 0.5 footcandle at the property line. A sound study with baseline measurements taken on site, including I‑95 traffic sound, is reviewed by the City’s acoustical consultant, and testing continues after opening. The limit values are still to be set.
Neighbors and land use
Residents ask: How close are homes? Does this fit the area? Will it affect property values? How big could it get, and who is the operator?
The nearest homes are about a quarter mile from the property line, and the draft conditions set setbacks, buffers and a maximum size before design begins.
Measured from the property line, the nearest rural homesites are about 1,340 feet away and the nearest finished Wylder home lot about 1,700 feet. The draft conditions would fix a maximum development envelope (building area, height, electric load, generation, cooling capacity and water demand) at conditional use, and a landscape buffer designed to be opaque year-round within three growing seasons. Residents who bought expecting the earlier resort-village plan ask what is different: the approved plan allows up to about 1,000 homes, a hotel, retail and a water park, and the proposed uses are estimated to generate fewer daily trips. No operator has been announced.
Environment and stormwater
Residents ask: Will wildlife, wetlands or Ten Mile Creek be affected? Will drainage or flooding get worse? What about hurricanes?
Wetlands and stormwater are permitted by the water management district, and buildings must meet the Florida Building Code.
The environmental resource permit evaluates flooding to neighbors, water quality and impacts on wetlands, fish and wildlife. A May 2026 environmental assessment describes mostly improved and woodland pasture, a reservoir and a small freshwater marsh, observed no listed species during its site visit and places the site in the North St. Lucie River Water Control District. The conditional-use application shows stormwater areas on the development plan.
Fire, generators and health
Residents ask: What comes out of the generators? Could fuel or batteries leak or burn? Can fire and EMS respond?
Generators are limited to emergencies and required testing under state air permits, and the fire district decides what equipment and training are needed.
The draft conditions limit combustion generators to emergencies, commissioning, scheduled maintenance and testing, with enclosures, spill prevention and operating records kept five years. The application includes an emergency-response plan for fire, including battery and fuel fires, and for hazardous-material leaks. Loudoun County reports that battery fires need a specialized response and bought specialized equipment and wrote an emergency-response manual.
Traffic and construction
Residents ask: Trucks and construction on Midway Road. The combined effect with other nearby development.
Once operating, the proposed uses are estimated to generate fewer daily trips than the approved mixed-use village, and construction traffic is managed by a plan.
The applicant’s consultant estimates 22,920 net new daily trips against 37,297 for the approved Planned Development. The St. Lucie Transportation Planning Organization has asked for a current analysis that includes nearby approved projects, and County Public Works has asked for a third-party review. The draft conditions require a construction management plan covering hours, haul routes, parking, dust, noise and road protection.
Jobs, taxes and incentives
Residents ask: Are there really few permanent jobs? Who benefits and what do taxpayers pay? Is there a secret deal?
Construction is the largest source of jobs, operating jobs are skilled and fewer, and the tax base grows by the value of the investment.
Virginia’s state review found about 1,500 workers at peak construction and about 50 full-time workers at a typical 250,000-square-foot facility, and Brookings finds roughly 100 to 200 jobs in a typical county. The team’s employment brief estimates 225 to 300 permanent on-site jobs at an average base salary of about $102,000, and 3,500 to 5,000 construction job-years. Illustrative property-tax revenue at an assumed $2 billion of taxable value is about $48 million a year across all taxing authorities. The project’s application, staff report and covenant draft are public records. Local incentives require a voter referendum, and the team’s position is that any incentive should be disclosed and evaluated publicly before approval.
Process and local control
Residents ask: Are the promises enforceable? Why rezone before the studies? Why a 2 p.m. weekday hearing? Can residents outside the City take part?
Conditions become part of the approval and run with the land, and the application is tabled while the City sets how data centers fit its code.
Florida preserves the City’s land-use authority over data centers (§163.326). A draft covenant would limit the industrial acreage to data-center use for 50 years, enforceable by the City once it is signed and recorded. The tabling gives the City time to decide how to classify and regulate data centers before any rezoning returns, and new public hearing notice is required if it does. Hearing times and notice are City decisions. City staff has asked for a City Attorney opinion on how SB 180’s temporary limits interact with the 2026 data-center law.
Opposition in principle
Residents ask: I don’t want a data center in our county, or I oppose artificial intelligence. Use the land for something else.
That is a legitimate view, and the City decides by its own public process.
The land-use question is separate from the national debate over artificial intelligence, and the same siting rules apply whatever the tenant’s workload. The property is already approved for a mixed-use village; the comparison with other uses is in the FAQ.
Letters of support
A Port St. Lucie technology educator wrote in support of advancing the rezoning, describing the construction, electrical, mechanical, networking, facilities, security, engineering and supplier work the project could bring, and a career path without leaving the Treasure Coast.
The letter asks for the 50-year data-center-only covenant to be signed and recorded, for site-specific engineering on cooling and water, stormwater, sound, lighting, generators, fire-rescue capacity, environmental protection, utility-cost allocation and construction impacts at the appropriate approval stages, and for a workforce partnership with Indian River State College, CareerSource Research Coast, local schools, skilled-trade programs and St. Lucie County employers.

If you have a question or a view, tell the City: see how to follow the process and submit comments, or ask us.
Reference: the correspondence record and how it was counted
From Aug 20, 2026 to Sep 20, 2026 the City’s public record received 85 written submissions from 80 people: 84 opposing the rezoning and one conditionally supporting it. Each letter was read and coded twice, and differences were settled by re-reading the letter. A letter counts once under each concern it raises, however often it repeats it, and one letter can raise several concerns. About a third of the opposition letters share a template with another. Two duplicate re-sends of the same email were counted once. Counts show what residents wrote about. They are not a poll, and they do not establish that a statement in a letter is correct. Comments received after Sep 20, 2026 are not included.

Statements in letters and what the record shows
| What letters say | What the record shows | Source |
|---|---|---|
| “Fort Pierce has no rules for data centers.” | The zoning code has no data-center use or review standards today. City staff told the Planning Board so and recommended that the Commission decide how the use is classified first. | City meeting video, Sept. 17, 2026 |
| “Data centers create almost no permanent jobs.” | Operating staffs are small relative to the building: about 50 full-time workers at a typical 250,000-square-foot Virginia facility, and roughly 100 to 200 jobs in a typical county (Brookings). Construction employs far more people temporarily. | Virginia JLARC; Brookings |
| “It will use millions of gallons of water a day.” | No cooling-water volume has been published. The applicant’s preliminary engineering assumes closed-loop cooling from the reservoir and shows domestic and sanitary demand of about 65,500 gallons a day. The water-use permit sets the amounts. | City staff report; §373.262 |
| “Florida has no bedrock, so pumping causes sinkholes.” | Florida sits on limestone, and groundwater withdrawal and sinkhole risk are site-specific. They are evaluated in the water district’s permit review. | SFWMD permitting; draft conditions |
| “The homes are adjacent / a mile / three miles away.” | From the property line: about 1,340 feet to the nearest rural homesites, about 1,700 feet to the nearest finished Wylder home lot, and about 5,000 feet to platted Port St. Lucie homes. | St. Lucie County Property Appraiser parcel data, Oct. 5, 2026 |
| “Developer materials say 1 gigawatt or more and 1.3 million square feet.” | The concept plan shows six buildings of about 220,000 square feet, about 1.32 million square feet. The team’s employment brief assumes a 450 MW campus, and FPL sets the actual load. | City staff report |
| “Koa Bay is a neighboring community.” | Koa Bay was the earlier surf-park resort concept for this same property, which holds a 2020 Planned Development approval. | City staff report |
| “A denial recommendation would need a four-fifths Commission vote to override.” | The staff report cites Sec. 125-133 for that rule. The Planning Board did not vote on the rezoning. | City staff report; meeting video |
| “SB 180 may bar the City from adopting data-center standards until October 2027.” | City staff raised the same question and asked for a City Attorney opinion. | City staff report notes |
| “The City has no information about this project.” | The application, staff report, environmental assessment, preliminary water and sewer memo, traffic memo, utility comments and a draft covenant are in the City’s public record. A site plan, an electrical load and an operator have not been announced. | City meeting packet |
