The Hillsborough County Planning Commission on Jan. 12 unanimously found multiple small‑scale comprehensive plan map amendments consistent with the county comprehensive plan and forwarded them to the Board of County Commissioners.

Notable unanimous consistency findings included HCCPA 25‑33 (College Avenue and 18th Street Southeast in Ruskin), where staff recommended changing SMU‑6 to Residential 12 for a ~19.5‑acre site to allow clustered residential development while protecting wetlands; and HCCPA 25‑38 (11017 E US Highway 92), where staff recommended Res‑9→SMU‑6 on a ~4.36‑acre frontage parcel to align uses with the US‑92 commercial corridor. Both items generated limited public comment and were supported by staff on policy grounds such as proximity to urban service area, transportation centers and community plan guidance.

Each item will be transmitted to the Board of County Commissioners with the Planning Commission’s consistency recommendation.
