Sunstop #360 Ocala - Major Site Plan - 000296 - Waiver Request to Major Site Plan in Review

Development Review Committee · 2026-09-28 · agenda_item

A major site plan is under review for a proposed Sunstop #360 Ocala development at parcel 24261-000-10. The applicant, Mastroserio Engineering, Inc., is requesting waivers from three county land development code requirements. The project is currently pending review by the Marion County Development Review Committee. The first waiver would defer construction of a right-turn lane on NE 35th Street, with the developer paying the county for the cost instead. The second and third waivers involve reducing required landscape buffers and building landscaping, with enhanced screening proposed as a substitute. If approved, this project would set in motion site clearing, grading, utility work, road improvements, building construction, and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site work, paving, concrete, landscaping, and building trades could compete for this work. Reaching out early, before site plans and permits are finalized, is the advantage.
