City of Clermont Workshop Meeting. Sept 15th, 2026

The City of Clermont held a workshop meeting on September 15, 2026, focused primarily on updates and discussions regarding the city's comprehensive plan, downtown action plan, and form-based code development. Consultants from DPZ presented detailed information about the comprehensive plan's progress, emphasizing the importance of managing growth, preserving the city's character, and creating mixed-use town and neighborhood centers to address traffic and development concerns. The meeting included extensive dialogue on annexation policies, density calculations, and strategies to attract local jobs and support small businesses. The downtown action plan presentation covered proposed redevelopment sites, greenway networks, stormwater management improvements, and enhancements to the waterfront area, including parking and pedestrian connectivity. Council members expressed the need for clear next steps, timelines, and visualizations to better understand and evaluate the plans. It was noted that the comprehensive plan draft would be updated and distributed by the end of the week, with further workshops and public engagement planned before formal adoption. No specific contract awards or procurement decisions were made during this meeting, but the discussions set the stage for future planning and development-related procurement activities.
