Orlando on Aug. 8 will seek development review committee approval for a master plan tied to the proposed $10 million, 14,600-square-foot Southeast Government Center building and the future 20,000-square-foot Orange County Library System building on 4.91 acres at 8301 Dowden Road. The cost for the library was not immediately available.
