June 9, 2026 Regular Meeting Agenda packet 2026-06-09
[case ZON26-000015] Sumter County is proposing amendments to its Land Development Code (LDC) to delete and replace certain divisions. The Planning and Zoning Special Master and staff recommend approval. The changes aim to fix redundancies and conflicts with the Comprehensive Plan, making the code less restrictive. No direct economic impact on businesses is anticipated, and no uses permitted by right are affected. The amendment is intended to improve the ease of use of the LDC and align it with the Comprehensive Plan. The Board of County Commissioners will consider the recommendation on June 9, 2026. [case HJR 1-F] The Florida Senate passed House Joint Resolution (HJR) 1-F, proposing a constitutional amendment to increase the homestead exemption for non-school levies to $250,000 over two years. This amendment will appear on the November 2026 General Election Ballot. It also limits the annual assessment increase for non-homestead property to 5% starting January 1, 2027. The amendment does not apply to ad valorem taxes collected by school boards. The Florida League of Cities expressed opposition due to unknown fiscal consequences and reduced budget flexibility. Sumter County Housing Services is proclaimed to support local community housing partners and collaborate with various entities to enhance housing attainability. The month of June 2026 is proclaimed as National Homeownership Month. [1032 County Road 529A, Lake Panasoffkee, FL 33538] The Heart of Florida Landfill, operated by A.C.M.S., Inc. d/b/a Heart of Florida Environmental, located at 1032 County Road 529A, Lake Panasoffkee, FL 33538, is facing community concerns regarding odors, potential aquifer contamination, and the proposed use of an injection well for leachate disposal. The Tracy's Point Community Club, Inc. has requested the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) to investigate operations, evaluate injection well risks, ensure groundwater monitoring, hold public meetings, and assess the cumulative impact of increased waste transport, including rail expansion. The landfill reported an unintentional acceptance of gasoline-impacted soil on March 25, 2026, and notified FDEP. FDEP officials have indicated that injection wells undergo high scrutiny and that none have impacted public water supply in Florida. The process for the exploratory well, construction test well, and Class I Operational Well Permit is outlined, with leachate disposal requiring treatment to a standard that does not impact well integrity. The Sumter County Sheriff's Office Detention Center underwent an unannounced inspection on May 21, 2026, as part of the Florida Model Jail Standards. The inspection team identified no instances of noncompliance, and the facility was found to be in compliance with all applicable standards. [1961 CR 246S, Oxford, FL 34484; case S2021-0007 (Major Special Use Permit), STU28-000061 (Minor Special Use Permit amendment), Case #26-003195 (Code Enforcement)] This document details a legal dispute initiated by Sts Joachim & Anna Orthodox Church, Inc. against the Sumter County Board of County Commissioners. The church is challenging the revocation of its Special Use Permits (S2021-0007 for a place of worship and STU28-000061 for a cemetery) which occurred on April 28, 2026. The church alleges the revocation was unlawful, violating the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, Florida Statutes Chapter 162 code enforcement procedures, and due process. The violations cited by the county included a motorhome used as a residence, a semi-trailer on the property, and trash/debris. The church claims it took steps to correct these issues and that the revocation was not supported by evidence. The county's actions are being contested, with the church seeking relief through a special magistrate. [1961 CR 246S, Oxford, FL 34484; case S2021-0007 and STU25-000061] Sumter County Board of County Commissioners affirmed the revocation of Special Use Permits S2021-0007 (place of worship) and STU25-000061 (cemetery and playground expansion) for Sts. Joachim and Anna Orthodox Church. The revocation was based on substantial violations of permit terms and ordinances, including the presence of a semi-trailer not permitted by zoning, accumulation of trash and debris, and an RV used as a residence. The church is appealing this decision to the Circuit Court, citing violations of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, conflicts with code enforcement procedures, and lack of substantial evidence. Public comment is not stated in this document. [1961 County Rd 246S, Oxford, FL 34484; case S2021-0007, STU25-000061] Sts. Joachim & Anna Orthodox Church, located at 1961 County Rd 246S, Oxford, FL 34484, is involved in a process concerning the revocation of its Special Use Permit S2021-0007. The permit was initially approved on December 14, 2021, for a 60-seat place of worship and later amended under STU25-000061 to include a cemetery and playground. The county issued a Notice of Intent to Revoke on April 10, 2026, citing violations including an RV used as a residence, a semi-trailer used as a storage building, and accumulation of trash and debris. The church requested a revocation hearing, which was initially scheduled for April 14, 2026, but was later rescheduled to April 28, 2026, due to an error in the case number cited in the notice. The church has submitted documentation addressing the violations. The Board of County Commissioners is the approval authority. [7223 SW 55th Street, Bushnell, Florida; case 8:26-bk-01144-RCT (Bankruptcy Case); CE2020-0421 (Code Enforcement Case); 2022-CA-000280 (Lawsuit Case)] This document is a Proof of Claim filed in a bankruptcy case (Case No. 8:26-bk-01144-RCT) by Sumter County Board of Commissions against Skytop Ranch, LLC. The claim is based on twofold code violations: motocross activity in violation of the land development code and construction of an agricultural barn with 'bulk house accommodations' requiring permits and inspections. A settlement agreement dated April 15, 2025, stipulated damages of $44,212.87 plus attorney fees and costs. The debtor failed to make payments, leading to a Motion to Enforce Settlement Agreement. The total claim amount as of the petition date (February 13, 2026) is $45,587.87, consisting of $44,212.87 from the settlement and $1,375.00 in post-settlement attorney fees and costs. Post-petition attorney fees are estimated at $7,500. The property involved is located at 7223 SW 55th Street, Bushnell, Florida, with Parcel IDs M22F009, M22-027, and M22F017. The property is zoned Rural Residential Districts (RR1 and RR5). The violations include operating an unpermitted motocross track and constructing an agricultural barn without proper permits. [case 8:26-bk-01144-RCT] Sumter County Board of County Commissioners is seeking to enforce a settlement agreement with Skytop LLC regarding code enforcement violations and operation of a motocross track on the Property. Skytop LLC allegedly breached the agreement by failing to pay Fees and Costs. The County seeks a final judgment to permanently enjoin Skytop LLC from operating the motocross track and to recover Fees and Costs, plus attorney's fees incurred in filing this motion. The settlement agreement was executed by representatives of Skytop and the County, establishing terms to resolve the matter, including dismissal of the case within five business days, release of the code enforcement lien, adherence to a temporary injunction to stop motocross activity, and resolution of code violations.

It does not contain information about specific development projects, zoning changes, or public comments related to new construction or contracting opportunities.

[20.07 Acres MOL; case LU26-000010, ZON26-000010] This document details a Sumter County Board of County Commissioners meeting held on May 26, 2026. The primary development-related item was a public hearing for a small-scale future land use change (LU26-000010) and a related zoning change (ZON26-000010) for a 20.07-acre parcel owned by Holcomb. The applicant sought to change the land use from Agriculture to Rural Residential and the zoning from General Agriculture (minimum 10 acres) and Rural Residential (minimum 5 acres) to Rural Residential (minimum 1 acre). The stated purpose was to prepare for a lot split. The Planning and Zoning Special Master and Staff recommended approval for both. However, during the public hearing, Commissioner Butterfield moved to deny the land use change, citing concerns about urban sprawl and the lack of planned centralized water or sewer services in the rural area, which is outside the Urban Development Boundary. This motion was seconded by Commissioner Coon and carried unanimously (4-0). Consequently, the zoning request (ZON26-000010) was deemed no longer valid due to the denial of the land use change. The meeting also included various reports, contract agreements, and financial matters, including a change order for the C 44A and CR 213 Sidewalk Project with Garcia Civil Contractors LLC and an extension for GSB Construction & Development, Inc. for On-Call General Contractor services.
