Existing warehouse complex on Recker Highway rezoned to match its business use

Where it is. On Recker Highway in Auburndale.

A 12.91-acre warehouse and outdoor storage complex on Recker Highway in Auburndale has been rezoned to Business Park Center to match its current use.

The property at 282 Recker Highway, spanning three parcels, has operated as a warehouse and outdoor storage facility. The county has approved a rezoning from Residential Suburban to Business Park Center and a matching Comprehensive Plan Amendment to align the land's official designation with its actual use.

The rezoning recognizes existing warehouse buildings and outdoor storage already on the site. Both the Land Use District Change and Comprehensive Plan Amendment were filed and approved in November 2025.

What happens next

The rezoning is approved. No further development review is indicated in the records.

The county's records show: On Mar 17, 2026, county commissioners approved the plan amendment at its adoption hearing.
