This community plan updated the Northwest Area Community Plan by providing for both a vision statement and implementation summary, and defining the Citrus Park Village Plan (CPVP).

The area within the CPVP boundary is proposed to change from various plan categories to one new land use designation called Citrus Park Village, and twelve (12) sub-area designations will be applied within the new CPVP designation.

Allowable use, maximum density, and maximum floor area ratio for each sub-area was developed.  Also included is an updated boundary map of the CPVP delineating the overall boundary and a Sub-Areas Map, within which the Village Plan provisions are to be considered.

Language provided ensured the development of zoning districts which address how and where uses can be placed, limit the range of uses, and include aspects of design related to new development. It clarifies that rezoning would be allowed after the plan adoption only if the CPVP regulation and zoning district requirements are met; and, clarifies that rezoning prior to adoption of the regulation and zoning districts would be proposed as a PD incorporating the CPVP design concepts.

The Citrus Park Village Plan strives to achieve a well-balanced combination of residential, recreational, commercial, and public uses served by a trail and transportation network, while preserving the layout and character of existing neighborhoods.  The existing, historically platted grid system provides a framework within which special areas adjacent to major arterials can be developed in a mixed-use commercial, office, and residential format which enhances the area's character and ambience. 

The Plan also strives to promote the development of a Town Center, ensure management and conservation of the natural environment, and ultimately manage growth so the delivery of public facilities and services will occur in a fiscally responsible manner while supporting redevelopment and new development within the Plan boundaries. 

The plan was further implemented by adoption of the development requirements in the Land Development Code (LDC) which are outlined in detail below:
