A planned unit development at 1200 Highway 98 South (also known as 1200 Bartow Road) is undergoing a major zoning modification. The change would add certain I-1 light industrial and wholesale trade uses to the park's existing office and commercial entitlements.
Staff reviewed the request and recommended approval. A public hearing was held on August 18, 2026, with notification sent to 177 nearby property owners. As of October 2026, the modification is at the City Commission's first title reading stage.
