State Finds Vision 2050 to Be Void Ab Initio
On July 28, 2025, the Florida Department of Commerce issued a letter to Orange County finding its Comprehensive Plan Amendment implementing Vision 2050 void ab initio, or invalid from the beginning.
The County may choose to appeal the decision or enter into settlement discussions to address the policies the state considers overly restrictive or burdensome.
Until Vision 2050 is resolved, the Orange Code is also not in effect.
If you have questions regarding Vision 2050, Orange Code, or any real property rights, land use, zoning, and business matters, please contact the Lowndes Land Use Team.
