Panama City Port Authority · 2026-07-30 · agenda_item

This item concerns a proposed requirement for new tree plantings along lot frontages in Panama City. The plan calls for one tree from the City's replant list to be planted for every 25 linear feet of lot frontage. This requirement is currently under review by the Panama City Port Authority. If approved, this could lead to work involving site preparation, tree procurement and planting, and ongoing landscape maintenance. Local contractors, nurseries, and landscaping services may find opportunities as this proposal moves through the review process. Engaging early could provide an advantage before specific plans and permits are finalized.
