X. Close of Evidence and Public Hearing. Deliberation and action by the

Planning Board · 2026-05-11 · agenda_item

Several development-related items are under review by the City of Panama City Planning Board. At 405 Hollis Avenue, a variance is requested to allow an accessory dwelling unit to exceed the 15-foot height limit on a 0.203-acre lot. At 730 & 732 Highway 231, a major development is proposed within the Heavy Industry zoning district on 9.973 acres. Additionally, a rezoning from Neighborhood Residential to Neighborhood General is under consideration for a 0.707-acre parcel on Magnolia Avenue. Finally, a small-scale land use amendment and rezoning from Mixed Use-2 to General Commercial-2 is proposed for a 0.482-acre property on Grace Avenue. These items are currently planned for public hearing and deliberation, representing early stages of the civic process. If approved, these projects could lead to site preparation, utility work, construction, and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor these developments as they progress through the review process, as early engagement can provide an advantage before final plans and permits are issued.
