The Bonita Springs City Council on a unanimous roll-call vote adopted an amendment to its comprehensive plan updating the 10‑year Water Facilities Supply Work Plan.

City planner Jacqueline Ginson told the council the plan was transmitted to the state land‑planning agency in June, that staff received technical-assistance comments from the state and substantive questions from the regional water management district, and that staff worked with the district to address those points in the text amendment and the attached water facilities plan.

“We coordinated especially with the water management district on their comments, and that information was included in the staff report,” Ginson said, summarizing revisions and pointing the council to the staff packet that highlighted language changes made in response to the agencies.

Staff said the district’s questions focused on service-area definitions and Bonita Springs Utilities’ system capacity and that staff provided additional wastewater-demand and treatment-capacity detail before resubmittal. The presentation also noted staff declined to incorporate a district suggestion to embed specific land‑development code provisions into the comprehensive plan, saying that would unduly limit future ordinance changes.

After asking if there was public comment (none was offered), the council conducted a roll-call vote and adopted the amendment. Council members recorded their support by name during the vote.

The amendment updates the plan text and the water facilities plan document that accompanies the comprehensive plan and empowers staff to submit the adoption package to state reviewers as required. The council did not add further conditions to the adoption and staff said the effective date will follow standard state processing.
