The Land Development Code (LDC) requires that a public hearing be conducted on certain land development requests (RZ, MM) prior to final decision by the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (BOCC). Land Use Hearing Officers (LUHOs) conduct hearings. LUHOs do not make final decisions, but instead render recommendations to the BOCC. Final decisions by the BOCC are made at a public meeting governed by the requirements of the LDC.

This notice is about a land development code review process. The process involves a Land Use Hearing Officer (LUHO) who makes recommendations to the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) for final decisions. The BOCC will consider these recommendations at a public meeting. The specific project details, such as the type of development, location, or size, are not provided in this notice. The current stage is pending review, with recommendations being made and awaiting final BOCC consideration. This process could eventually lead to site development, including potential needs for site preparation, construction, and related trades, but the specific project scope is not yet defined. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor future public meeting agendas and official county communications for details on specific projects that advance through this review process. Early awareness allows businesses to prepare for potential opportunities as projects move towards approval and bidding.
