Board of County Commissioners Public Hearing Meeting

The Board of County Commissioners met to discuss several upcoming projects and code changes. Potential work for local businesses could arise from a proposed mixed-use development near Southeast 58th Avenue and Southeast 45th Street, and another mixed-use development at SE 110th Street and SE 52nd Avenue. A residential project with 100 dwelling units on 10 acres at SE 145th Street and SE 58th Avenue may offer opportunities for land clearing, grading, utility work, concrete, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscaping, and building material suppliers. The board is also reviewing amendments to the Land Development Code concerning definitions, tree protection, and landscaping, which could affect businesses in related fields.
