1. PURPOSE AND SCOPE

City Commission Meeting · 2026-05-11 · agenda_item

The City of Leesburg is reviewing a petition to amend the boundaries of the Grace Groves Community Development District. This district is a special type of local government focused on planning, financing, and maintaining public infrastructure and community services. The petition is part of a process required by Florida law to assess estimated regulatory costs. While the district itself cannot regulate land use, it serves as a tool to help finance public improvements needed for future development. The review process is currently focused on the financial and service delivery aspects related to the boundary modification. This early stage means that planning for site clearing, grading, utility work, paving, building construction, and landscaping may soon follow as the district's role is defined. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage now to understand the project's potential scope and phases before formal plans and bids are established.
