BACKGROUND:
Phase 2 of the Winding Oaks Planned Development is comprised of a single-family residential subdivision consisting of 77 lots on 17.11 acres.
The developer is KL Winding Oaks LLC.
The drainage retention areas and conveyance system outside of the dedicated public right of way and all common areas for landscaping and pedestrian access are the responsibility of the Homeowner's Association.

The developer has paid the solid waste fee required at the time of platting.

The city and developer are in active discussions toward the resolution of the streetlight requirement as it pertains to roadways adjacent to the development.
Prior to the recording of subsequent plats for the development, the developer shall make provision for streetlights in accordance with city regulations, but in no case more than one year from the effective date of this agreement.
Case No. SUB24-0002 (Final Plat and Developer's Agreement) was recommended for approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission on July 14, 2025. However, consistent with recent State of Florida law, final plat approval is no longer required by City Council.
