Commission approves revised affordable‑unit mix for Habitat for Humanity Pieris site

Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners · August 11, 2026

Summary

A minor modification to the Pieris PD was approved to change the mix of affordable housing units; staff said the new distribution still exceeds minimum density‑bonus requirements and the board voted 7‑0 in favor.

The board approved PRS application 20‑61181, a minor modification to a 3.1‑acre parcel (the Pieris site) that revises the distribution of affordable housing units. Staff said the project previously received an affordable housing density bonus and that the proposed new unit mix still exceeds the minimum requirements tied to the bonus.

Steven, a planner with Love Love Consulting representing Habitat for Humanity Tampa Bay, told commissioners he was present to answer questions and that the proposed mix would continue to meet the density‑bonus criteria. Staff recommended approval and the board voted unanimously to authorize the unit reallocation.

No opponents appeared at the hearing and planning staff had found the revised distribution to remain consistent with eligibility for the density bonus and county standards.
