BACKGROUND:
* Petitioner: Alfred Joseph Flechas, Jr.
* Property Owner: Alfred Joseph Flechas, Jr.
* Annexation has been requested to obtain city services and will be considered on the same agenda with the land use change.

* The surrounding area is a mix of uses but predominantly single-family residential with adjacent undeveloped land with office and office park zoning.
* New development will be subject to a zoning designation, site plan approval and building permit issuance by the City of Ocala if annexation occurs.
* Upon annexation, it is appropriate to adopt a City land use category. A separate zoning application will be submitted in the coming months.
* Planning & Zoning Commission recommended approval by a vote of 6 to 0 at the July 11, 2022, meeting.
