Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting · 2026-06-09 · agenda_item

The City of Ocoee is planning to create new regulations and procedures for certified recovery residences. This involves amending the Ocoee Land Development Code to add a new section, Section 4-13. The new section will establish rules for these residences and include a process for requesting reasonable accommodation, as required by state law. This ordinance is being considered to ensure fair housing opportunities while complying with federal and state laws. The process will cover application requirements, review procedures, and potential revocation or reinstatement. This item is currently under review by the Planning & Zoning Commission. The work will involve legal and administrative processes to establish the framework for these residences, rather than physical construction. Local businesses in legal services, consulting, and administrative support may find opportunities in assisting with the development and implementation of these new regulations. Early engagement could be beneficial as the city finalizes its procedures.
