Volusia County Council Approves Orange Camp Road Improvements and Drainage Needs
Posted On: January 8, 2026
The Volusia County Council approved the acquisition of two properties along Orange Camp Road in DeLand during its meeting today to support planned roadway enhancements and drainage improvements along the corridor. To be purchased with Road Impact Fees, the properties are located in an area that has repeatedly flooded during major rain events.
Planned updates will improve traffic safety and operations from Woodland Boulevard to Princeton Road, incorporating drainage improvements to reduce localized flooding and support a safe, resilient transportation corridor for surrounding roadways and nearby neighborhoods. Road Impact Fees are funded by new construction to help offset transportation impacts created by increased demand on the roadway system.
The two acquisitions approved today build on earlier Council actions, bringing the total number of properties acquired along this section of Orange Camp Road to four as part of the County’s long-term planning for roadway improvements, drainage needs, and flood mitigation.
