Chapter 10 Community Appearance Regulations

Hernando County is undertaking a comprehensive rewrite of Chapter 10 of the County Code, which governs Community Appearance Regulations in unincorporated Hernando County. The proposed update would repeal and replace the current chapter with clearer, modernized standards addressing landscaping, tree preservation and protection, buffers, land clearing, irrigation, invasive plant species, fences, and related administration and enforcement. The goal is to support responsible growth, protect community character and natural resources, respect property rights, and make the regulations easier to understand and apply.

Get Involved:

The Board of County Commissioners discussed the proposed rewrite on August 4, 2026. Before the ordinance returns to the Board for a formal public hearing, the County is inviting residents, property owners, businesses, development professionals, and other interested community members to review the proposal and share feedback.
