Public Hearing (LDCPAL 2026-5 ILE Duplex and Sewer Text Amendment CPA) (Transmittal Hearing) to consider the adoption of a Large-Scale Comprehensive Plan Text Amendment to Policies in Section 2.130 modifying sewer connection requirements to allow septic tanks for duplexes in Residential Low-X (RL-X) for Indian Lakes Estates (ILE). This case is related to LDC-2026-12, a companion Land Development Code Text Amendment. (No Fiscal Impact)

The Board of County Commissioners, Polk County, has approved a text amendment to the Comprehensive Plan for Indian Lakes Estates (ILE). This amendment modifies sewer connection policies in Section 2.130. It will allow septic tanks for duplexes in Residential Low-X (RL-X) zoning areas within Indian Lakes Estates. This approval means that future development in these areas may involve the installation of septic systems instead of traditional sewer connections. This project is now approved and moving forward. The work could involve site preparation for new construction, installation of underground utilities including septic systems, and final grading and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas like site prep, concrete, plumbing, and landscaping may find opportunities. Early engagement before final site plans and permits are issued could be advantageous.
