Local Planning Agency — November 5, 2026
The Boys & Girls Club of Martin County wants the county to allow 60-foot-tall light fixtures at recreational facilities tied to institutional uses in the Hobe Sound redevelopment area. The change would clear the way for sports field lighting, but only within that specific redevelopment area.
