c. Landscaping areas (adjustments to planters and plant beds may vary in

April 13, 2026, Special City Council Meeting · 2026-04-13 · agenda_item

This item concerns proposed adjustments to landscaping areas, specifically planters and plant beds, for a project located in the City of Destin. The adjustments may change the number, size, and shape of these areas. The project must remain in substantial conformity with Sheet L1 of the approved plans and maintain at least 18% open space landscape area, unless modified by specific conditions. This matter is currently under review by the Community Development Department. The work would involve site clearing and grading for new planting areas, installation of irrigation systems, and planting of trees, shrubs, and ground cover. Final landscaping and potentially hardscape elements may also be part of the scope. Local contractors specializing in landscaping, site preparation, irrigation, and potentially concrete work for planters could find opportunities. Engaging early allows businesses to understand the project's specific needs before final bids and permits are issued.
