Apopka City Council Discusses Mayflower Road Fix Amidst New Industrial Developments
- Meeting Overview:
In the latest Apopka City Council meeting, discussions centered around several industrial development projects, notably the annexation and rezoning of properties on West Orange Blossom Trail for a cold storage facility. A point of concern was the state of Mayflower Road, which developers agreed to improve as part of their project plans.
00:46The meeting addressed the annexation and future land use of properties at 2424 and 2428 West Orange Blossom Trail. This project, managed by Colding Logistics, involves expanding a cold storage facility. A crucial issue raised was the need for improvements to Mayflower Road, which currently cannot handle increased traffic from the new development. The developer expressed willingness to collaborate with the city to address these road conditions, a necessary step for the project to proceed.
03:44Another notable topic was the Trinity Construction site plan, which has undergone multiple submissions. The discussion focused on resolving remaining issues, such as utility extensions and site access. Plans to eliminate an access point on Alabama Street were discussed, with considerations for emergency vehicle access and potential stabilization measures.
07:57The council also reviewed a construction site plan for a 20,000 square foot warehouse office building, with no major concerns raised. Additionally, a minor development at an Amazon facility was introduced, involving a small automated vehicle inspection building with plans to address lighting and parking requirements.
11:17Lastly, revisions to the Logistics at 429 site were considered, primarily concerning ADA parking and utility changes, including a shared fire pump system for the development. Further discussions were planned to address landscape and irrigation adjustments.
