Developer offers to revise Comprehensive Plan after Lazy Lake council seeks townhome proposal
Summary
Compass Florida presented single-family home plans June 19, 2025, but told the council it would be willing to update the village Comprehensive Plan; Councilmember Dana Merrill requested a townhome presentation and council requested environmental and engineering impact studies for lake and habitat protection.
A representative of Compass Florida presented development plans to the Village Council on June 19, 2025, focusing on single-family homes though the council had expected a townhome proposal. The minutes record that "the developer noted that they would be willing to update the Village's Comprehensive Plan." Councilmember Dana Merrill specifically requested a presentation on townhomes.
Council members emphasized the need for environmental and engineering impact studies before advancing any changes that could affect local water features or wildlife. The minutes say studies would be required to assess potential damage to the lake, wildlife and habitats. The record does not include developer timelines, parcel addresses, unit counts, or a formal application; it records the presentation and the council’s request for additional information and studies.
Next steps recorded in the minutes include scheduling a future presentation of townhome plans (as requested by Councilmember Merrill) and requiring the environmental and engineering assessments prior to formal consideration of plan amendments.
