Wimauma Plan in Action: Laying the Foundation for a Revitalized Wimauma
Welcome to the public engagement hub for the Wimauma Plan in Action! Over the past two years, the community of Wimauma Village has successfully completed their Community Plan. Now is the time to put this plan into action. Through the collaborative effort of County Staff, Consultants USF and Urban 3, Community Based Organizations and the Wimauma Community, we have created the Wimauma Downtown Revitalization Action Plan to ensure the implementation of the Wimauma Community Plan and uphold the goals within.
In October 2021, the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners adopted the Wimauma Community Plan, along with land development regulations. These regulations addressed development outside of the downtown core. Now, the County has moved to the next phase of implementation, revitalizing Wimauma’s downtown core. A lively, connected downtown is the heart of the Wimauma Community Plan. To that end, Hillsborough County contracted Urban 3 and the University of South Florida to conduct an in-depth analysis of Wimauma and assist in the creation of an implementation strategy for a downtown core.
