| Hillsborough County, FL – The Hillsborough County City-County Planning Commission is providing the final recommendations for the Unincorporated Hillsborough County Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Section update, which will serve as a guide to how and where the County will grow over the next 20+ years. Now is your chance to help shape the future of Unincorporated Hillsborough County. The Comprehensive Plan touches nearly every facet of our lives — where we live and work, what transportation options we have, opportunities for recreation, how to protect our natural assets, neighborhood character, and vital resources. Please join us for our in-person meeting on Thursday, November 2, 2023 at 6:00 p.m. or at our virtual meeting on Monday, November 6, 2023 at 6:00 p.m. Information shared will be the same at both meetings. “This Plan is an exciting opportunity for community members to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of Hillsborough County and seeks to address the evolving needs of residents and businesses and find more accessible, efficient, and community-focused solutions,” stated Planning Commission Executive Director, Melissa Zornitta, FAICP. To ensure the Plan update reflects the needs and desires of the County’s residents, we need to hear from you!
