[2300 Virginia Avenue, Fort Pierce, FL 34982] The Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) of St. Lucie County held an informal meeting on May 12, 2026. Two discussion items were on the agenda: St. Lucie Public Schools Impact and Efficiency, and the Hutchinson Island Gateway Proposal. The Hutchinson Island Gateway Proposal involves the Hutchinson Island Committee seeking a public-private partnership with the County to install a welcome feature on Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) right-of-way. The committee proposes to fund the sign and its maintenance, provided the County helps secure the FDOT location. They have two proposed options and are seeking input on design and location, with the goal of promoting Hutchinson Island as a destination. The meeting also included discussions on school district efficiency, graduation rates, and administrative costs.
