ALERT: THIS MONDAY, 6 pm, online:
Neighborhood Workshop for proposed Lakewood Ranch Rezone - March 27, 2023 at 6pm (Online only)
NOTE: As of now, the Comp Plan chapter penned by Rex Jensen and Pat Neal has not yet taken effect. Yet Rex and Pat wish to power along their expansionary plans for thousands more "dwelling units" in East Sarasota.

Do the developers simply assume the County will crater to their wishes? They're probably right. The public has a chance to weigh in on Monday - the workshop is online only - no chance to meet in person, see plans, talk directly to the players.
Lakewood Ranch wants to rezone from rural to RSF-2/PUD to develop 1,718 dwelling units and related buildings. This is just the first part of the 4,000 acres in the comprehensive plan amendment that has been legally challenged and is not in effect. The land in this rezone petition goes from the end of University Parkway at the north down to the entire north boundary of Bern Creek Ranches. LWR doesn't care that this rezone is not legally authorized because of the pending challenge.
Please participate in the online workshop and voice your concerns. This rezone is incompatible with adjacent rural homesteads and agriculture. We need maintain our opposition to this development and to the breaking of all the promises the County made to us about protecting rural life.

From Becky Ayech, one of the Old Miakka leaders opposing the change to a higher density:
Lakewood Ranch Southeast is holding a virtual Neighborhood Workshop on March 27 at 6pm.
Below is the information from the county's webpage. The link at the bottom will take you to the file on record. It shows a map. They say part of the land is OUA, but on their previous request that is being challenged, they said all the land was OUE, OUR and Hamlet. Interesting.
