This item concerns proposed changes to waste enclosure requirements for developments in Santa Rosa County. Specifically, it references LDC Section 5.02.03, which outlines rules for dumpster enclosures. The proposed changes state that these enclosures must not be placed within any right-of-way setback. Additionally, if an enclosure is near a right-of-way, it may need extra landscaping for screening. This matter is currently under review by the Commission Special Rezoning Meeting. The project would involve site preparation for landscaping and potentially construction of screening elements for waste enclosures in future developments. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, and landscaping could find opportunities. Reaching out to the county planning department early could provide insights into upcoming development projects that will need to comply with these new rules.
