Planning & Zoning Commission / Local Planning Agency Regular Meeting · 2026-06-09 · agenda_item

A proposal is under review to rezone a property located in Highlands County to R-3 multiple-family zoning. The property is approximately 9.11 acres in size. The proposed R-3 zoning would allow for a potential population yield of about 164 persons, based on an estimated 73 dwelling units. This item is currently under review by the Planning & Zoning Commission. If approved, this rezoning could lead to site preparation, grading, utility installation, and the construction of new residential buildings. Contractors specializing in site work, concrete, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, roofing, and finishing trades may find future opportunities. Suppliers of building materials and equipment could also be involved. Early engagement with the project stakeholders is advisable as plans develop.
