DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Brian Lamb of Inframark, LLC, filed a petition on behalf of Ocala SW 100th, LLC., to establish a new community development district (CDD) for a development to be titled Canterwood Acres pursuant to F.S. Section 190.005 and Marion County’s Code of Ordinances (COO) Chapter 14.5, Article III, Division 1. COO Sections 14.5-43 and -44 require a draft petition to be considered in a “counseling phase” followed by the formal petition in a “formal filing phase.”
The Board previously scheduled a public hearing to consider the Canterwood Acres CDD Petition for December 2, 2025, at 10:00 a.m. An advertising error on behalf of the petitioner requires rescheduling the hearing date to comply with advertising requirements for a CDD Petition. The petitioner will be responsible for placement and funding of the necessary public notice advertising, consisting of four (4) consecutive weekly ads, in a qualified newspaper of general circulation pursuant to Chapter 50, F.S., for the hearing.
Staff recommends the new public hearing to consider the ordinance establishing the Canterwood Acres CDD on Tuesday, February 3, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., or soon thereafter, in the McPherson Governmental Campus Auditorium.

None
