The Leesburg City Commission held a special meeting on November 10, 2026, to discuss planning and zoning rules for planned unit developments (PUDs). Staff outlined possible changes to density calculations, road maintenance, and the four-year commencement requirement. Commissioners generally favored calculating density on net developable acreage and aligning wetland credits with the county’s approach (one unit of credit per five wetland acres), but the city attorney cautioned that changes could conflict with the temporary limits under Senate Bill 180 and expose the city to litigation. No regulatory changes were adopted; staff will assess the legal constraints, including whether annexed properties can be treated differently.

Commissioners also debated who should maintain subdivision roads, discussing community development districts (CDDs) and special taxing districts as possible mechanisms, without reaching a decision. Staff and the city attorney will research those options and bring back proposals for defining substantial commencement—potentially requiring an approved site plan within four years rather than merely an application—as well as information on PUDs and existing extensions. Other topics included gas-appliance requirements and tree preservation. No procurement activity, contract awards, or spending decisions were identified. A motion to adjourn was seconded; no vote result was stated in the transcript.
