Florida law Chapter 163 Florida Statutes requires all counties and cities to adopt a Comprehensive Plan. On December 15, 2005, the Osceola County Board of County Commissioners adopted a new Comprehensive Plan. On March 17, 2006, the State’s land planning agency, the Florida Department of Community Affairs DCA issued a “Statement of Intent to Find Comprehensive Plan Not in Compliance” with Florida’s growth management laws.
After extensive negotiation with the DCA and other agencies, a proposed compliance agreement has been drafted and was signed by DCA Secretary Thomas G. Pelham on November 21, 2007. The proposed compliance agreement calls for a number of changes to the December 19, 2005 version of Osceola’s Plan. The Board of County Commissioners adopted the Comprehensive Plan on December 10, 2007.
For more information concerning the Comprehensive Plan, its contents, and adoption schedule, please contact the Planning and Zoning Office at 407-742-0200.
