Development radar — Orange County, September 2026

This is the first Development Radar issue for Orange County. September 2026 moved on two fronts: in Winter Garden, the annexation and land-use change of a corner at Beulah Road and Gillard Avenue, listed for first reading on September 15 and for second reading on September 29 before the City Commission; and at the Board of County Commissioners, public hearings on two Future Land Use Map amendments — one with a concurrent rezoning to industrial — a preliminary subdivision plan, three Planned Development cases and a countywide ordinance on the effective date of the Vision 2050 comprehensive plan. Every item was verified against its official agenda live: we publish only the ones that appear on it with their status verbatim, next to the item it describes. Of the fifteen items in this issue's draft, eleven cleared the gate; the other four were dropped because their agenda assigns them no status that can be quoted.
