Developer Pulls Plans After Flooding Fears | Tampa News

A major housing development planned for 150 homes on 117 acres is officially scrapped after the developer withdrew their application—following a county rejection of their request to delay hearings. This isn’t the first time: it’s the third attempt by the same developer, with prior proposals also denied due to flooding concerns and resident opposition. Neighbors fear more homes will worsen drainage issues in an already flood-prone area near Blackwater Creek. While residents celebrate this win, they remain vigilant, suspecting this might be a delaying tactic—and are prepared to fight back if the developer returns with another plan.
