A special use permit is under review for the construction of a 199-foot monopole communications tower. The proposed tower will be located on a leased portion of a larger property, measuring 4,900 square feet, situated west of I-75 and south of CR 470 in the Lake Panasoffkee area. The current use is improved agriculture with a future land use of Public/Institutional. The project is currently recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Special Master and will be heard by the Board of County Commissioners on June 23. This project would involve site preparation, foundation work, tower erection, and potentially electrical and low-voltage system installations. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers interested in site preparation, concrete work, tower erection, electrical services, and related materials should consider engaging with the applicant early. Understanding the project details before final permits are issued can provide a competitive advantage.
