Development Review Committee (DRC)

*** PLEASE NOTE ***

The Board of County Commissioners has approved an updated “Zoning in Progress” Ordinance on October 29, 2024, in anticipation of Vision 2050 & Orange Code (www.ocfl.net/vision2050) adoption which is anticipated to occur late Spring or early Summer, 2025. The “Zoning in Progress” Ordinance suspends the acceptance of new applications for rezoning (Planned Development and conventional rezoning requests), Future Land Use Map Amendments, and Special Exceptions (processed through the Zoning Division).

At this time, the Orange County Planning Division will not accept new applications for rezoning (new Planned Developments or conventional zonings) or Future Land Use Map amendments unless you are in the Master Planned Communities of Horizon West, Avalon Park, Innovation Way, or the I-Drive District. Planned Development Change Determination applications can still be submitted for existing PD’s.

Committee Purpose

The Development Review Committee (DRC) reviews land use plans, preliminary subdivision plans, development plans, septic tank variances, and various appeals. Regularly-scheduled meetings are held on two Wednesdays of each month. A current DRC agenda will be available on-line on the county calendar each Friday preceding the DRC meeting.
