The City of Groveland is poised for future commercial, office, and industrial development. Groveland’s access to the Florida Turnpike as well as U.S. Highway 27 and other state roads provides the transportation network necessary to attract major employers. Much focus has been put on building the necessary workplace districts to create a more sustainable community.

Groveland is trying to re-create itself into a “destination city”. The City has established a Community Redevelopment Area (CRA) to guide redevelopment activities in order to build a vibrant and attractive downtown. Through the CRA Board’s leadership and community input, the City is dedicated to bringing about both physical improvements for the area as well as economic development. By putting tax dollars directly back into the CRA, private investors will be encouraged to invest in the area as well. This public-private partnership will result in more places for Groveland’s residents and guests to shop and eat and more prosperity for Groveland’s business community.

Various cities and towns in Lake County provide additional employment and needed services within reasonable commuting areas of the Groveland. As future development occurs in the Mixed Use and North Workplace Development areas, additional employment and service opportunities will be made available for the City’s residents and others. This will provide for much improved sustainability for the City over the short-range and long-range planning period.
