Special Magistrate Hearing
Special Magistrate Hearings: Your Voice Matters

Every Wednesday of the month, Port St. Lucie holds Special Magistrate Hearings at 9 AM in City Hall Council Chambers. These hearings are your direct line to city governance — where local decisions get made and community concerns get heard!

Whether you're interested in code enforcement matters, property disputes, or just want to understand how our city handles official business, these public hearings are open to you. It's government transparency in action, right here at 121 SW Port St. Lucie Boulevard!

Mark your calendars for the next sessions — this is civic engagement at its finest, and we're stronger when residents stay involved!

What it means for PSL: Weekly Special Magistrate Hearings give residents direct access to city decision-making processes.
