15:56A primary focus of the meeting was the discussion around the comprehensive plan amendment for a site on State Road 52, known as the “Duty Calls” project. This amendment proposes a change from agricultural to industrial light use for approximately 10 acres of land. Concerns were raised about the requirement for the development to connect to potable water and wastewater services, with the nearest connection point being 3.8 miles away. However, it was mentioned that efforts are underway to bring necessary utilities closer, which could eventually reach Aaron Cutoff.

13:02Additionally, the commission approved a zoning amendment for the Wesley Chapel Professional Center, transitioning it from a professional office district to a general commercial district. This change affects approximately 94 acres at the intersection of Vidian Way and State Road 54, with the planning development and economic growth department recommending approval. No objections were noted during the meeting.

13:52Another approved zoning amendment pertained to property on Powerline Road in Northeast Pasco County. This amendment involves changing the zoning from agricultural district and agricultural residential to solely agricultural residential for a parcel of nearly 10 acres. Similar to the other items, this amendment received approval without public objection.
