INTRODUCTION
In December of 2000, Orange County and the Florida Department of Community Affairs entered into an agreement to establish an Optional Sector Plan for the Horizon West area, located in southwest Orange County. This report is submitted in compliance with the requirements of S163.3245 FS, and includes information regarding development approvals, development that has occurred, proposed development, and programmed public facility improvements planned for the next five years. The information contained herein is based on information from 2009 to the present.
BACKGROUND In June 1995, the Orange County Board of County Commissioners adopted the report: A Village Classification System and the Horizon West Study Report along with corresponding implementation requirements. Orange County and the Florida Department of Community Affairs entered into a processing agreement, dated July 18, 1995 which set forth the procedure for Specific Area Plan (SAP) adoption. This agreement allowed the Horizon West planning area to be changed from a future land use designation of Rural/Agriculture to Village. The original Orange County portion of Horizon West included 28,000 acres in size, but now the planning area is 21, 000 acres. The northwestern portion of the Horizon West Sector Planning area withdrew to form the Avalon Rural Settlement. In addition, the northernmost portion of the original planning area, referred to as Village A, officially has withdrawn from the planning area as a result of City of Winter Garden Joint Planning Area negotiations. Lakeside, the first village, was adopted in 1997. The Specific Area Plan (SAP) for Bridgewater Village was approved in 1999, followed by the Town Center SAP in 2004. In 2004 a fourth neighborhood was added to the Bridgewater SAP. The Avalon Rural Settlement was established in May of 2004 from what was originally Village A, the northernmost portion of the Horizon West planning area. The density of the Lake Avalon Rural Settlement is predominantly Rural Settlement, one dwelling unit per five acres. The Specific Area Plans for Village H and Village F were approved in 2006. The last anticipated Village is referred to as Village I. A boundary study for this Village was submitted to the Orange County Planning Division and approved by the Orange County Board of County Commissioners in April, 2007. The Specific Area Plan for Village I was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on June 10, 2008; however, there was a delay in its implementation due to a non compliance finding by the State Department of Community Affairs.

POPULATION The last published population was 4,222 in April 2005 and 6,695 in April 2006. However, based an estimated 5,770 building permits issued to date, (5,636 of which have certificates of occupancy), it is quite possible that the existing population of Horizon West is approaching 10,000 residents or more. This estimate is complicated by the County’s fluctuating vacancy rate and the current foreclosure crisis. However, the 2010 census should verify this population estimate.
The population for Horizon West is projected to be in the range of 32,000 to 63,000 by the year 2030. As part of the County’s participation in the 2010 census effort, Orange County has requested that the Bureau of the Census designate Horizon West a Census Designated Place (CDP). This will allow for the collection of additional cumulative census-related data in future years.
Most of the population growth to date has occurred in the villages of Lakeside and Bridgewater. Six neighborhood- related Planned Developments (PDs) exist in Lakeside Village. These are known as the Lake Reams Neighborhood PD, Lake Burden Neighborhood PD, Lake Sawyer Neighborhood PD, Lake Sawyer West PD, Lake Reams Neighborhood Center and Overstreet PD. A total of four major neighborhood-related PDs exist within the Village of Bridgewater to date, referred to as Stillwater Crossings, Centerbridge Neighborhood PD, Signature Lakes PD and Independence PD.

FUTURE LAND USE The map below illustrates the entire Horizon West Specific Area Plan map based on the land uses in the Specific Area Plans. Most of the development to date has been to the north and to the east of the planning area. This is the area closest to existing development and the Reedy Creek Improvement District. With the continued improvements to SR 429 access is now available to the central village locations of Village F and Village H (Hickory Nut).

The Department of Community Affairs (DCA) issued a Statement of Intent (SOI) to find the Village I Comprehensive Plan Amendment, #2008-1-A-1-4 not in compliance on August 20, 2008. The SOI identified issues related to impacts of the proposed amendment on public facilities outside of the local jurisdiction, the inclusion of public facilities necessary for the short term, and specific procedures to ensure intergovernmental coordination to address extra-jurisdictional impacts. The County reached a settlement agreement with DCA to resolve the non-compliance issues in early 2010. The BCC adopted the settlement agreement on February 16, 2010. On April 1, 2010 the Notice of Intent (NOI) for Village I was issued. Village I became effective on April 22, 2010. APPROVED PLANNED DEVELOPMENTS There were two PDs approved in Horizon West in 2009. One PD was for a small medical office while the other was for a large portion of Village F. Table 3: Horizon West ‐Planned Developments Approved 2009

DEVELOPMENT TO DATE Overall approximately 1,200 acres in Horizon West has been developed for residential purposes. Over six hundred acres has been developed within the Village of Bridgewater, and 500 acres in Lakeside. BUILDING PERMITS When building permits are examined, it can be seen that building permits dipped in 2009 with respect to the total reported for 2008. However early results from 2010 indicate that this trend may be somewhat reversing. A grand total of 5,770 building permits in Horizon West have been issued since 1999 for condominium, single family residential and townhouse development.

CODE The Village Code currently regulates all lands within Horizon West – except for those within the limits of the Town Center Code SAP mentioned above. The Update of the Village Planned Development Code was adopted by the Board of County Commissioners on June 2, 2009 and is effective as of June 18, 2009. For information on this code, please contact the Planning Division at 407-836-5600. The Village Code reinforces the Comprehensive Plan policies approved for the various Horizon West SAPS, while providing further specificity where needed. It includes development standards for the various use districts including Estate, Garden Home, Village Home, Townhouse and Apartment, as well as the Village and Neighborhood Center districts. The County is also working on a Unified Land Development Code as part of its implementation plan for the Comprehensive Plan update. This code will consolidate the existing regulations for Horizon West into its own chapter.

LIBRARY
Lake County, has a reciprocal lending agreement with the Orange County library system that allows Orange County’s residents in this vicinity to utilize their library. The Winter Garden and Windermere branch libraries are the closest in Orange County. According to the Orange County Library System’s Long Range Plan 2005 – 2014, Horizon West is one of five expansion areas being planned for in Orange County. Staff is actively evaluating potential sites and, subject to the outcome of property tax reform, funds may be designated in the future to provide a library to serve the residents of Horizon West. TRANSPORTATION Orange County initiated a series of Preliminary Engineering (PE & E) Studies geared to evaluate the transportation network needed to serve the Specific Area Plans (SAP) of the Horizon West Town Center, Lakeside Village and the Village of Bridgewater. The PE & E Study is a roadway development process tailored to evaluate the engineering, social, and environmental impacts of potential roadway improvements in order to provide a foundation for the design phase of roadway production. Results from the studies identified the need for
13
improvements on County Road 535 (CR 535), Ficquette Road, Porter Road, Reams Road, McKinney Road and the addition of a new road called North Porter Road. The types of improvements identified include the addition of travel lanes, realignment of roadway segments, signalization and intersection improvements, the addition of sidewalks and multi-use paths, roadway landscaping and other safety enhancements including roadway lighting and drainage improvements.
Following completion of the PE & E studies Orange County completed the design of portions of CR 535 (Segment A, B, C, D, D1), Ficquette Road (Segment E) and construction of portions of CR 535 (Segment B, D, D1). The following projects are shown on the Joint Public Private Partnership map below and are also found in Table 8.

Table 9 shows planned improvements benefiting the study area and were obtained from MetroPlan Orlando’s Prioritized Project List 2014/15 – 2029/30 which identifies roadway improvements that are financially feasible through the year 2030. Orange County has updated its Comprehensive Plan to include roadway improvement projects that would be implemented through a public/private partnership venture within the Horizon West area. For example, the CR 535 and CR 545 corridors are considered joint public/private partnership projects targeted by Orange County in its Comprehensive Plan as attributable to the Horizon West Village Land Use.

PUBLIC TRANSIT Lynx provides no transit service to the Horizon West area. The 2007-2014 Lynx Transit Development Plan has no plans to begin service at this time. However, plans for stops and routes are shown in the SAPS. Orange County has begun its mobility planning efforts as required by
16
recent State legislation. These efforts should help address the long term transit planning needs for this area. SUMMARY To summarize, progress is ongoing in fulfilling the vision for Horizon West first established in the mid 1990s. The adoption of all the Villages within Horizon West is complete with Village I becoming effective in 2009.
Most development has occurred in the Villages of Lakeside and Bridgewater to date. It is in these locations that village and neighborhood development can be seen on the ground and for the first time has been documented for this report. Although below the total for 2008 there appears a slight uptick in permit activity in 2010. This trend will be revisited in next year’s report
Challenges remain in finalizing the transportation and water and wastewater infrastructure necessary for development build-out. In addition, like many areas of Orange County, Horizon West would greatly benefit from a more stable real estate market at this time. Despite the current slow-down, vigilance must be maintained to ensure that the Horizon West vision, standards and amenities are maintained and upheld during the planning period.
