REPORTS
Vice-Chair Whitehead asked the city attorney to clarify how the Commission should review
requests for future land use and zoning changes.
City Attorney Mantzaris provided an overview of the difference between comprehensive plan
amendment requests and rezoning requests.
1. REQUEST FOR LARGE-SCALE COMP PLAN AMENDMENT
REQUEST: To change future land use from Lake County Regional Commercial to City of
Clermont Industrial
APPLICANT: Staff(Senninger Irrigation)
Senior Planner John Kruse presented the staff report as follows:
This administrative request is being heard concurrently with requests for annexation and
rezoning. The City is requesting annexation of the subject parcel as authonzed by the utility
agreement with the property owner. The property is improved and is currently receiving water
services from the City. The property is approximately 19 acres.
The proposed map amendment will change the future land use from Lake County's Regional
Office to the City's Industrial. This land use'designation is the most compatible for the uses
currently entitled on the property through the Industrial zoning designation. The City's Office or
Commercial land use designation create a conflict with the existing Industnal zoning designation
since it prohibits Industrial type uses. The related rezoning request will change the zoning from
Urban Estate (currently Planned Industrial District in Lake County) to the City's M-1 Industrial
zoning classification.
Upon approval by the City Council, the proposed amendment would be transmitted to the Florida
Department of Economic Opportunity(DEO) and the reviewing agencies for review.
Staff recommends approval of the transmittal of the large scale comprehensive plan amendment
to change the future land use from Lake County Regional Office to Industrial in the City.
Commissioner Martin moved to recommend approval of the large-scale comprehensive plan
amendment; seconded by Commissioner Proli The vote was unanimous to recommend approval.
