1. Budget Amendments Sheet - FY26 Grants and Bld Dept

City Commission · 2026-04-22 · agenda_item

The City Commission is reviewing a proposal to amend zoning rules for the former Orange Technical College property at 901 W. Webster Avenue. The property is currently zoned Public and Quasi-Public (PQP), which does not allow single-family homes. The proposed change would permit detached single-family homes if they meet R-1A development standards. This change is intended to allow the Orange County School Board and Habitat for Humanity to build affordable housing for teachers and school staff. This item is currently under review, with a recommendation for approval from the Planning and Zoning Board. If approved, this could lead to site preparation, utility work, foundation construction, framing, and finishing trades for new homes. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the project scope and potential needs as plans develop.
