# City of Leesburg Commission Meeting September 28, 2026

The City of Leesburg Commission Meeting held on September 28, 2026, included several procurement and development-related discussions. Key agenda items involved the approval of easements for the Echo at Lake Harris development, appointments to the Leesburg Planning Commission, and multiple zoning and land use amendments primarily related to The Villages and Banning Ranch developments. The commission approved ordinances modifying development agreements, rezoning properties for age-restricted and multi-family residential uses, and franchise agreements for sanitation and utility services within the Villages' age-restricted development. A significant discussion focused on the acceptance of road dedications in the Highland Pines subdivision, highlighting concerns about the financial burden of road maintenance on the city and the discretion developers have regarding road dedication. The commission requested a report on the status and terms of road dedications across various PUDs. Additionally, the commission addressed the proposed millage rate and budget for fiscal year 2026-2027, approving a rate of 3.3783 mills per $1,000, representing no tax increase. A notable policy discussion involved a request for a proclamation to designate October 14 as Charlie Kirk Day of Remembrance, which was deferred for further consideration due to concerns about community division and the appropriateness of city-level recognition. No contract awards or RFPs were explicitly mentioned, but several capital improvement projects and development agreements were approved or amended.
