1 TO: Planning & Zoning Commission RE: Modifications/Amendments to the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 295, Article XIV, PDD #2: Orlando/Packerland Planned Development District FROM: Todd Gerbers, Director of Planning & Code Compliance DATE: October 5, 2026 GENERAL INFORMATION With single family dwelling values continuing to increase, the market has been showing the need for some more affordable housing options for first-time buyers. At the request of a developer, the Village approved modifications to the PDD # 2 zoning district in 2024 to allow for the construction of a single-family subdivision that had slightly smaller lot widths and area. This agenda item is recommending a few modifications to the existing ordinance. BACKGROUND The development mentioned above is the Enclave Subdivision off of S. Pine Tree Rd. That development is nearing completion, and both the developer and some of the new residents/owners have informed Village Staff that this type of development has been wonderful addition to the area and are very pleased with its success. Village Staff is proposing the additions to the existing zoning code permitting the use for two-family residential structures within similar developments since the current PDD # 2 currently permits “One-Family and Two-Family Residential” in this zoning district. Although two-family residential may be a permitted use, any development or plat would still require P & Z Commission and Village Board approval prior to being developed. This is consistent with any development within this zoning district as all land uses within PDD # 2 are required to be approved for that use to be cohesive with adjacent and surrounding uses. RECOMMENDATION/CONDITIONS Staff recommends approval of the modifications / amendments to the Zoning Ordinance, Chapter 295, Article XIV, PDD #2: Orland/Packerland Development District for One-Family and Two-Family Residential of the Village Zoning Code as submitted.
