body
Background:
The applicant, Babcock Property Holdings, L.L.C., is requesting an amendment to the Babcock Ranch Community Increment 3 Development Order (IDO) Resolution Number 2023-081. This increment is the third increment of the Babcock Ranch Community DRI, containing approximately 4,535 acres, which was originally approved in 2023.
The Babcock Ranch Community DRI is generally located east of State Road 31, south of County Road 74 (Bermont Road), west of the Glades County line, and north of the Lee County line, in the East County area. As of today, two increment development orders have been approved by the Board of County Commissioners (Board).
The proposed revisions are to update the development rights and to amend some conditions to ensure that this IDO is consistent with the current development conditions and the County’s Comprehensive Plan.
What Action will be accomplished?
If the Board of County Commissioners approves this application, the Babcock DRI Increment 3 IDO will be consistent with the current development conditions and the development trend within this DRI, and the buildout date and the expiration date of this increment will be consistent with the buildout date and expiration date of the MDO.
