Planning Board Meeting · 2026-04-14 · agenda_item

This item concerns floodprone areas within the City of Pensacola. Portions of a district are identified as being within the 100-year floodplain. Site planning for any future development in these areas must take into account the specific requirements for floodprone locations. This matter is currently under review by the Planning Board. The work that could be set in motion involves careful site planning and design to address flood risks, potentially including specialized grading, drainage systems, and construction methods. Early engagement with planning consultants, civil engineers, and landscape architects is advised, as these professionals can help navigate the specific site planning considerations for floodprone areas before detailed plans and permits are finalized.
