Tavares, FL Planning & Zoning Meeting on April 18, 2024. No city video made and no public input.
The Tavares, Florida Planning & Zoning Committee met at City Hall on April 18, 2024. There was a short agenda, and the Interim Community Development Director, Antonio Fabre, led the meeting.
Mr Fabre gave an excellent overview of the planning process, and presented maps of currently approved residential and commercial developments in Tavares.
Staff also gave a good overview of the Florida Live Local Act and negative issues that may result.
The attendees were not using the microphones much of the time, so you may have to adjust volume as needed.
Even though the meeting agenda said there was public input, Mr. Fabre refused to allow public input requested by attendees. He said this was a workshop intended only for the committee with no public input allowed.
Additionally, the City staff refused to make a city video of this meeting, even though those staff were in the video control room.
Thus, it is my opinion that the City Staff were preventing full transparency on the discussion, so we will investigate further why they were not transparent.
Also, it would be nice if the committee had a standing agenda item to hear current road usage statistics and discuss ways to reduce excess traffic on Tavares City, Lake County and Florida Highway roads. We don't believe the committee focuses enough on that issue.
For additional information, or to get the PowerPoint, handouts and maps used for the meeting, please get in touch with Susie Novack, City Clerk, at 352.742.6209 or Email Susie Novack at snovack@tavares.org.
