STAFF REPORT
This ordinance amends the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan by changing the land use category of approximately 43 acres property known as Oak Hall School, located at 1700 SW 75th Street, from Alachua County Institutional to City of Gainesville Education. This property was annexed by referendum into the city on February 20, 2020. As a result of annexation, the city must now assign appropriate land use and zoning designations. The City Plan Board held a public hearing on January 28, 2021, where it voted to recommend approval of this amendment to the Future Land Use Map of the Comprehensive Plan.

Within 30 days following the City's adoption of the amendment, any affected person may file a petition with the State Division of Administrative Hearings to request a hearing to challenge the amendment's compliance with Chapter 163, Florida Statutes. If not timely challenged, this amendment shall become effective 31 days after the state land planning agency notifies the City that the amendment package is complete. If timely challenged, this amendment shall become effective when the state land planning agency or the Administration Commission issues a final order determining that this amendment is in compliance with Chapter 163, Florida Statutes.
