Stuart’s Live Local Act, Parcel by Parcel
A guide to Florida’s Live Local Act and a parcel-screening tool for estimating what the law allows on sites in Stuart.
- For
- Stuart property owners and housing developers
- Worth noticing
- Height uses buildings within one mile, while density is tested citywide; the rules use different geographic baselines.
Field notes
The guide separates the statute’s tests rather than treating entitlement as a single parcel-radius calculation: density is presented as a citywide comparison, while height uses nearby buildings within one mile. It also describes a 40% affordability threshold for qualifying rental units, capped at 120% of area median income, with a 30-year affordability period. The homepage says the screening tool applies these rules to Stuart parcels, though the extracted page does not expose the screening workflow itself.
