CDMP APPLICATION RE UDB TEXT AMENDMENT

Board of County Commissioners · 2026-07-21 · resolution

The Board of County Commissioners adopted Resolution R-678-26, directing the County Mayor to file an application to amend the Comprehensive Development Master Plan (CDMP) to address the use of text amendments that may facilitate urban land uses on property outside the Urban Development Boundary (UDB). The resolution was adopted on 7/21/2026. The application will include provisions requiring a demonstration of need, avoidance of sprawl-type development, and mitigation of loss of agricultural or environmentally-sensitive lands, while providing flexibility for text amendments in certain Urban Expansion Areas. The application will not be retroactive and will not affect pending applications. Due to Senate Bill 180, the administration would have to wait until October 2027 to submit the text amendment to the state. The item was forwarded to the Board with a favorable recommendation from the Intergovernmental and Economic Impact Committee on 6/10/2026. No specific property, address, parcel, acreage, or applicant is identified in the document.
