6. Decks or walkways, whether elevated or at ground level, that have one-half

This item concerns proposed changes to engineering drainage calculations for decks and walkways in Citrus County. The Planning and Development Commission is reviewing a proposal to allow decks or walkways with up to a half-inch spacing between boards to be counted as pervious areas. This would require approval from the County Engineer, confirming satisfactory soil conditions beneath the structure, and the decks or walkways must remain uncovered. This proposal is currently under review. If approved, this could lead to future projects involving the construction of new decks and walkways, potentially requiring site preparation, grading, and the installation of these structures. Contractors specializing in site prep, grading, concrete, carpentry, and general construction may find opportunities. Reaching out to the County Engineer's office early could provide insight into the specific requirements and potential future projects.

6. Proposed Site Plan with elevation drawings

A site plan is under review for a proposed development. The project is currently in the planning stages, with elevation drawings being considered. This early phase means that contractors, suppliers, and service providers have an opportunity to engage before final plans are set. The project scope is expected to involve site preparation, grading, and potentially underground utility work, followed by construction phases. Businesses involved in site clearing, grading, concrete, framing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and landscaping could find opportunities. Engaging now allows businesses to understand the project's direction and potentially influence or prepare for future bidding processes as site plans, bids, and permits are finalized.

7. Modifications, alterations, or accessory structures for an existing single

This item concerns proposed changes to county rules regarding modifications to existing single-family homes. Specifically, the proposed ordinance would allow for alterations or accessory structures that increase the home's impervious surface by less than 20%. The ordinance is currently under review by the Planning and Development Commission. If adopted, this could lead to homeowners undertaking various small-scale improvement projects. These projects might involve site preparation, minor construction, and landscaping.

9. PDC Staff Report and Map

A residential rebuild project is under review at 2011 South Schooner Drive. The property owner is seeking a variance related to a required 35-foot setback from the mean high water line. The current structure was damaged by a storm, and the rebuild is currently denied in permitting due to this setback issue. The project requires a stormwater management plan, which was not initially provided and led to the permit denial. This plan must be prepared by a professional engineer licensed in Florida and follow specific Land Development Code requirements. The project will involve site work to address stormwater management, potentially including a gutter, berm, or swale system, followed by the residential rebuild. Contractors and suppliers involved in site preparation, grading, concrete, plumbing, electrical, HVAC, and general construction trades may find opportunities. Early engagement is advised as plans and permits are still being finalized.

A. Purpose. These standards are intended to provide developers of large retail

This item concerns proposed new design standards for large retail nonresidential building projects in Citrus County. The Planning and Development Commission is reviewing these standards, which aim to create safer, more efficient, and pedestrian-friendly developments. The goal is to encourage better project design, including more landscaping and shaded parking, while discouraging nondescript buildings and unfriendly pedestrian areas. The standards are currently under review by the commission. If adopted, these standards would guide future large retail nonresidential developments, potentially involving site preparation, construction, and landscaping.

A variance request is under review for a proposed 199-foot communication tower at 2723 W. Dunnellon Road. The applicant, Verizon, needs the tower to address a coverage and capacity gap in the area. The request seeks a variance for separation distances from adjacent properties, specifically from a non-residential Heavy Industrial zoned property and a portion zoned CL. The proposed tower is planned for the largest Industrial zoned property within the search ring, which is a permitted use. This project is currently under review by the Planning and Development Commission. If approved, the project would involve site preparation for the tower foundation, installation of the tower structure, and related electrical and low-voltage systems. Contractors specializing in site prep, grading, concrete, electrical, and low-voltage systems could find opportunities. Reaching out to the applicant or relevant county departments early could provide insight into potential future needs before formal bidding processes begin.

This agenda item concerns proposed updates to the Land Development Code, specifically application OA-2026-00001. The main focus is an exemption for residential engineered stormwater for existing single-family homes undergoing modifications or adding accessory structures. This exemption applies if the increase in impervious surface is less than 20%, provided the sites still meet maximum impervious surface limits. Other minor revisions to the code will also be discussed. The item is currently under review by the Planning and Development Commission, which will make a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners. This process could lead to future work related to residential property improvements, including potential site clearing, grading, and stormwater management system installations. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in residential construction and related trades should monitor this review, as early engagement before final permits are issued could offer an advantage.

W. AMARYLLIS LN.

A variance request is under review for a property located at 2011 S. Schooner Drive and 13912 W. Ozello Trail in Crystal River. The site is 11,911 square feet, or 0.28 acres, and is currently zoned for single-family use. The applicant, Talmadge Williams, is seeking a variance to allow a 25-foot setback from the centerline of S. Schooner Drive, which is less than the required minimum. This variance, if approved, would permit the placement of a single-family dwelling. The item is currently under review by the Planning and Development Commission. If approved, the project would involve site preparation, foundation work, and the construction of a single-family home. Contractors specializing in residential construction, site work, concrete, framing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC could find opportunities. Reaching out to the applicant or relevant county departments early could provide an advantage before bids and permits are finalized.

a. OA-2026-00001 Land Development Code Update

The Citrus County Planning and Development Commission is reviewing a proposed update to the Land Development Code. This update would change several sections of Ordinance No. 2012-06, including definitions, liability rules, regulations for light and heavy industrial districts, rules for auto salvage and junkyards, design standards for large non-residential projects, and exemptions. A new section for data centers would also be created. This item is currently under review. The proposed changes could lead to future development projects, potentially involving site preparation, construction of industrial facilities, and specialized construction for data centers. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in construction, engineering, and related fields may find opportunities as these code changes are considered and potentially adopted. Engaging early could provide an advantage before specific projects are planned and bids are solicited.
