Does the fact that an application for a plan amendment is being reviewed by the County mean is will eventually be adopted?
Not necessarily. Amendments to the Comprehensive Plan can only be approved by the Board of County Commissioners after a series of public hearings. Requested plan amendments may be modified or even denied by the Board. Applications are sometimes withdrawn by the applicant prior to final action. If you have seen a yellow sign posted on a parcel of land or have received a notice in the mail, it is because applicants are required by the County to provide such notice. The County has voluntarily created these notice requirements, which are much more stringent than required by the Florida Statutes, in order to maximize public involvement in the process..
