a. W. Fairbanks Guidance Language

Economic Development Advisory Board Regular Meeting - Canceled · 2026-05-12 · agenda_item

The City of Winter Park's Economic Development Advisory Board is reviewing "Guidance Language" for the W. Fairbanks area. This language aims to create a strategic framework for future development and incentives. The proposed focus areas for development include professional, scientific, tech services, retail, finance, and medical, with a specific exclusion for hospitals. Discussions have centered on traffic, parking, and enhancing the quality of life for residents. The guidance language is planned to be shared with other city boards and the commission for further review. This early stage in the planning process presents an opportunity for local businesses involved in professional services, technology, retail, finance, and potentially medical sectors, as well as general contractors, site prep, and engineering firms, to understand the city's development direction and potentially engage as plans evolve. Reaching out now allows businesses to align with the city's vision before specific site plans, bids, and permits are finalized.
