Triple E Management wants to shift land on East Main Street toward industrial use

Triple E Management has applied to change the future land use on two parcels at 3640 E Hwy 542 in east Lakeland from RL-1 (low-density residential) to a business-park designation (BPC-2). A companion text amendment would add parcel-specific conditions to Appendix E of the county's Land Development Code to limit the intensity of the industrial activity allowed on the site.

The county records show a related building permit, now expired, to pour a low-profile concrete pad for a truck scale, and an email noting that a structure on the site may need Level 2 site approval. A separate request to change the zoning subdistrict was filed and then withdrawn.

The map amendment and text change have been approved to move to hearings. The Planning Commission was scheduled to review both cases on November 4, 2026, and the County Commission set first and second readings for December.
