02Deal summary

The rationale

If adopted, auto-service/mechanical repair becomes an allowable use in RACX-zoned parcels along the U.S. 27 corridor — opening the door for developers or operators to site automotive service concepts in a high-traffic regional commercial node without needing a separate rezoning or variance.

Polk County is amending its Land Development Code (LDCT-2026-15) to add "Vehicle Service, Mechanical" as a permitted use within the Regional Activity Center (RACX) land use district of the U.S. 27 Selected Area Plan.
