The City of DeLand is reviewing plans for a new water management system that includes establishing a permanent littoral zone. This zone will be composed entirely of native vegetation and is intended to ensure the continued health of the lake's shoreline. The plan requires a minimum of 10 square feet of vegetated littoral zone for every linear foot of lake shoreline. This item is currently under review by the City Commission. The project will involve site preparation for vegetation, including potential clearing and grading, followed by the installation of native plants and ongoing maintenance. Local contractors, landscape suppliers, and environmental consultants specializing in native vegetation and stormwater management systems could find opportunities as this project moves forward. Early engagement is advised before final site plans and permits are established.
