This item concerns new development rules for the Core Overlay District and the Historic Core Overlay District in DeLand. These rules will apply to all new construction except for single-family and duplex homes. The standards must be followed along with existing Design Guidelines for Commercial Buildings in Downtown DeLand. Properties in the Historic Core Overlay District or those that are locally designated historic sites will need review by the Historic Preservation Board. This item is currently under review. The project will involve compliance with new design and preservation standards, potentially impacting site planning, material selection, and construction methods for future commercial projects. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers involved in commercial construction, design, and historic preservation could benefit from understanding these upcoming regulations. Early engagement with the review process may provide insight into future project requirements.
