County Growth Inspires Planning Commission to Look Ahead

With its enduring natural beauty, unique charm, and diversity, Unincorporated Hillsborough County is attracting national attention and experiencing unprecedented growth. The Planning Commission (Plan Hillsborough) projects an additional 350,000 residents and 107,000 jobs by 2045. Hillsborough’s success will bring benefits to communities countywide, and the anticipated growth will require thoughtful preparation and planning.

This month, Plan Hillsborough invites residents of Unincorporated Hillsborough County to share their vision for the future via an online survey and to attend a virtual public meeting to learn more. Plan Hillsborough will use resident feedback to update the Future Land Use Section of the Unincorporated Hillsborough County Comprehensive Plan. This update will guide how and where Hillsborough County will develop over the next 20 years.

The Comprehensive Plan touches nearly every facet of residents’ lives – where they live and work, transportation choices, opportunities for recreation, and how to protect natural assets, neighborhood character, and vital resources. “We hear a lot about the rapid growth occurring throughout our community from unincorporated county residents,” said Planning Commission Executive Director Melissa Zornitta. “This is an opportunity to weigh in on our future plans – we really want to hear from everyone.”

Survey

Plan Hillsborough encourages residents to take a brief, interactive, online survey. The survey will be open through April 30, 2023, and is available in both English and Spanish.

Those who complete the survey and provide their email and home zip code will be eligible for a drawing for one of five £100 grocery gift cards. The feedback provided will help guide the decisions made throughout the update process.

Virtual public engagement meeting

The Hillsborough County City-County Planning Commission has scheduled the first virtual public meeting, which will cover the goals for the Comprehensive Plan update and discuss upcoming potential changes to the plan’s Future Land Use Section. When: Tuesday, April 25, 6 p.m.

Where: Register for this virtual meeting Residents will have additional opportunities to weigh in at both virtual and in-person community meetings this spring and summer, and at meetings of the Planning Commission and Board of County Commissioners (BOCC).
