The City of DeLand's Historic Preservation Board is reviewing new development standards for properties within the Gateway Overlay Districts. These standards will apply to all land within 600 feet of roadways identified as Redevelopment Gateway and Emerging Gateway on the city's zoning map. The regulations aim to supplement existing codes and will include specific community design, landscaping, and sign requirements. The Core Overlay District and the Historic Core Overlay District, which share development and design standards, are also part of this review. The Historic Core Overlay District, a part of the Core Overlay District, will involve additional review by the Historic Preservation Board. This item is currently under review, indicating an early stage in the public process. The project's scope involves establishing and enforcing new design and landscaping rules, which could lead to future site development, construction, and renovation projects requiring services such as site clearing, grading, utility work, paving, building construction, and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor this review process, as early engagement before final plans and permits are issued can offer a competitive advantage for upcoming work.
