This agenda item concerns a review of parking ratios for marina uses at Emerald Grande in Destin, Florida. The review is based on City of Destin LDC suggested ratios and actual employee numbers. A 2015 analysis identified a need for 1,280 unadjusted parking spaces, with further adjustments planned for seasonal, peak hour, and non-captive hour fluctuations. This review is currently under consideration by the City of Destin Special City Council. The project involves analyzing and adjusting parking demand for a mixed-use development, which could lead to future site planning and construction related to parking facilities. Contractors specializing in site preparation, grading, concrete, paving, and potentially underground utilities may find opportunities as this review progresses. Suppliers of construction materials and related services should monitor this item for potential future needs.
