City of Clermont Council Workshop Meeting. October 6th, 2026

The City of Clermont Council held a workshop on October 6, 2026, to discuss the draft comprehensive plan. Consultants presented proposed land-use changes, including town and neighborhood centers, mixed-use corridors, housing types, and a shift from gross to net density calculations; council members asked how the proposals relate to existing zoning, property rights, and state law. The discussion also covered greenways and transportation connectivity, conservation and lake protection, recreation and open space, capital improvements, and utility planning. Council members raised concerns that the versions provided to them, the public, and the Planning and Zoning Commission might not consistently show the latest edits, and requested clean and redlined copies for further review. Staff said updated versions would be provided; the transcript records no vote, contract award, spending decision, or other procurement action. The workshop’s capital-improvement and infrastructure discussion was high-level, with no specific project funding or contract amounts identified.
