Residents are pushing back against a proposed private school that would be on this 24 acres of land at the corner of Holly Lane and Dale Mabry Highway in Lutz. About 30 residents came to the Hillsborough County Land Zoning Meeting on June 15 in opposition of allowing a K-8 private school that would have up to 1,000 students and also require the reconstruction of the small Holly Lane. The county has yet to rezone the land request for approval.
