Variance for a pool setback near Eustis
- Proposed
- Approved
- Building
- Done
A property owner requests a planned unit development variance to build a pool, deck and screen enclosure 5 feet from the rear property line instead of the required 10 feet, on a 0.29-acre lot in the unincorporated Eustis area. It would extend 5 feet into a golf ball retrieval easement; the homeowners association supports it. It was on the Board of County Commissioners agenda on Aug 4, 2026.
Outcome confirmed: The Lake County Board of County Commissioners approved the Gifford Pool variance (PZ2026-101, Final Development Order 2026-8) on August 4, 2026, 5-0, per the August 4, 2026 minutes.
