Palm Coast will not have a moratorium on infill lot building in the city, but will be forming a Citizen Advisory Committee to look for solutions to the flooding problem facing residents.

Vice Mayor Ed Danko proposed the committee to the council during a discussion on Jan. 16 on the new technical manual updates addressing flooding and drainage on some homes in Palm Coast. The committee was unanimously approved by the council, and staff will return at the next workshop meeting with more details on the process of forming the committee.

“[The committee] should be open to all folks in our community, including those who have actually flooded, but also members of our Home Builders Association, our business community and other concerns citizens,” Danko said.
