Planning and Zoning Commission · 2026-04-15 · agenda_item

This item concerns proposed landscape buffer requirements for parcels next to public roads in Mount Dora. The Planning and Zoning Commission is reviewing a proposal that would require a Type A landscape buffer for any parcel next to a public right-of-way. Parcels along US 441, CR 44, and SR 46 would need a Type B landscape buffer. This proposal is currently under review. If approved, this could lead to work involving site clearing and grading for buffer installation, followed by landscaping and planting. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, and landscaping services may find opportunities. Reaching out to the city or applicant early could provide insight into specific project needs before formal plans and permits are finalized.
