Sign reduced at Eagle Lake truck stop location

A permit filed in August 2026 shows plans to reduce a sign at 101 N Highway 17 in Eagle Lake. The sign face is being downsized from 14 by 48 feet to 12 by 42 feet, with the overall height also reduced. The head of the sign is being removed and replaced with a new one designed for digital or static display.

A related zoning verification letter filed the same month requests confirmation of permitted uses at this location and a nearby parcel on Highway 17 in Winter Haven, both zoned Heavy Industrial Commercial. The letter lists a wide range of potential industrial outdoor storage and logistics uses—including motor freight terminals, commercial vehicle parking, warehousing, equipment rental, fleet maintenance, and container storage—suggesting the property may be transitioning to logistics or trucking-related use.
