B. ALL FOUNDATIONS HAVE BEEN DESIGNED FOR AN ASSUMED NET ALLOWABLE SOIL BEARING
Board of Adjustments Regular Meeting · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item
This item concerns a requirement for foundations for a project in Winter Park. All foundations are designed assuming a net allowable soil bearing pressure of 2000 pounds per square foot. Before any foundations are placed, a licensed geotechnical engineer must verify this pressure in the field and get approval. If the actual soil bearing pressure is lower than 2000 pounds per square foot, the contractor must inform the engineer of record right away. This requirement is currently under review by the Board of Adjustments. This review process will likely lead to site preparation, foundation work, and general construction activities. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should consider reaching out early to understand the project details as they develop. Engaging before final site plans, bids, and permits are set can offer a competitive advantage.
