The City of Pensacola Planning Board is considering a new requirement for underground utility services. This rule would apply to all new building construction or additions of floor area to existing structures located along Bayfront Parkway, Chase Street, Gregory Street, and 9th Avenue. It also applies to all properties that front Salamanca Street. This item is currently under review by the Planning Board. If approved, this project would involve significant underground utility work, including trenching, conduit installation, and connection services. This could lead to opportunities for contractors specializing in underground utilities, excavation, and electrical services. Early engagement with city planners and developers could provide valuable insight as the project moves through the review process.
