Council approves boundary adjustment to support county interconnect and water service alignment
The Brooksville City Council voted 5-0 to adopt Resolution 2025-03, which adjusts the city’s first-right-to-serve boundary affecting the northern third of Mason and Honeycutt properties and a parcel on Wiscon Road to better align service areas for a planned interconnect with Hernando County.

Staff explained the issue arises from an older interlocal mapping of right-to-serve areas: a single developer’s property was split between city and county service areas, creating an impractical service boundary for future development and the planned interconnect project. The change affects property near the fairgrounds and the parcel behind the hospital on Wiscon Road; staff said county action on related zoning is scheduled at the county commission the next morning.

Richard Weeks (staff) described the adjustment as an administrative map correction to facilitate an interconnect and to avoid running a new city water line where an existing county line serves the parcel. Councilmembers said the change improves operational clarity and supports the interconnect work the city and county are coordinating.

Roll call for Resolution 2025-03: Councilmember McKeithen — Aye; Councilmember Hallau — Aye; Vice Mayor Bronson — Aye; Councilmember Earhart — Aye; Mayor Tanner — Aye. Motion passed 5 to 0. Staff said the map change appears in exhibit materials in the packet and will be recorded to coordinate with the county.
