What is the difference between the Urban Infill Area and the Urban Expansion (Mixed Use) Area?
The Urban Infill Area and the Urban Expansion Area both lie within the Urban Growth Boundary. The difference is that urban and suburban land use patterns are already well established within the Urban Infill Area. The Urban Expansion (Mixed Use) Area is largely undeveloped and has relatively few residents at this time, allowing for compact, pedestrian-friendly forms of mixed use development that integrate residential land uses with commercial and institutional uses. Osceola County will continue to regulate land uses within the Urban Infill Area to maintain existing patterns, although at a somewhat higher density in the case of agricultural lands and some low density residential properties. Within the Urban Expansion Area, development will be consistent with the Conceptual Master Plans required by Future Land Use Element Policy 1.1.10.
