CDMP APPLICATION RE UDB TEXT AMENDMENT

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

The Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution R-678-26 (File Number 260967) directing the County Mayor or designee to file an application to amend the Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP) to address the use of text amendments that may facilitate urban land uses on property outside the Urban Development Boundary (UDB). The resolution was introduced on 5/26/2026, forwarded with a favorable recommendation by the Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee on 6/10/2026, and adopted on 7/21/2026. The application will require demonstration of need, avoidance of sprawl, and mitigation of loss of agricultural or environmentally-sensitive lands, with flexibility for text amendments in certain Urban Expansion Areas. The application will not be retroactive and will not apply to current applications. Due to Senate Bill 180, the administration would have to wait until October 2027 to submit the text amendment to the state. No specific property, address, parcel, acreage, or dollar amount is stated.
