DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Residents and stakeholders are invited to attend a Developer-Initiated Neighborhood Meeting on Monday, Sept. 8 at 6 p.m. at the Fairfield Inn & Suites, located at 1820 Checkered Flag Blvd. The meeting will focus on a proposed second amendment to the Midwest Transit Inc. Planned Master Development Agreement, which governs a large tract of land along North Tomoka Farms Road.
The amendment seeks to clarify development criteria and adjust the boundaries of residential use areas, potentially reshaping the future of this high-profile corridor. The property, which spans over 228 acres near the intersection of U.S. 92 and North Tomoka Farms Road, has long been earmarked for mixed-use development, including residential, commercial, and retail components.
According to city planning documents, the proposed changes may impact how density is distributed across the site, influence traffic flow, and affect utility demands such as water and sewer capacity. The amendment also aims to refine zoning designations to better align with current market conditions and environmental constraints, including buffer zones near the Tomoka River.
🏘️ Why It Matters
-
Local Impact: Residents in nearby neighborhoods, including Hyde Park and Florida Shores, may see changes in traffic, noise, and land use.
-
Environmental Considerations: The site borders conservation areas, raising questions about stormwater management and ecological preservation.
-
Economic Development: Adjustments could pave the way for new housing, retail, and infrastructure investments.
City officials encourage public participation to ensure community voices are heard before any formal decisions are made. The meeting will include a presentation by the developer and an open Q&A session.
