This item concerns a discussion about traffic conditions in the City of Destin.

While no specific project is detailed, such discussions often precede applications for new construction, renovations, or changes in property use. Businesses involved in site preparation, construction trades, engineering, and legal services may find opportunities as these discussions evolve into formal proposals. Engaging early allows businesses to understand potential future needs and prepare for upcoming projects.

April 13, 2026 Special City Council Meeting Minutes
A quasi-judicial hearing was held regarding a Development Order Compliance Review for the Harborwalk Village Phase II development. The project is located at 76 and 100 Harbor Boulevard and encompasses approximately 8.31 acres. The proposed modifications aim to comply with Development Order (DO) 10-02. Staff identified several potential issues, including insufficient information for Phase 2B, building heights exceeding the 100-foot/9-story limit, setbacks not meeting minimum requirements, modifications to a previously limited access point on Highway 98, and parking exceeding the maximum allowed. The applicant argued that the deviations were minor and technical. The council ultimately voted 5-1 to find the applicant not in compliance with Development Order 10-02, citing multiple elements including height, setbacks, and lack of detailed final plans. The applicant may pursue available options such as applying for a major deviation or returning to council. Public comments included concerns about harbor safety, overcrowding, and the accuracy of capacity calculations, as well as support for the city's progress and partnerships.

April 13, 2026, Special City Council Meeting Packet
This document is an agenda item for the Destin City Council meeting on April 13, 2026, concerning a Development Order Compliance Review for Harborwalk Village Phase II. The applicant, Legendary, LLC on behalf of Pelican Point Harbor, LLC, is seeking a determination of compliance with existing Development Orders (DO-10-02) as an alternative to a Major Development Order amendment. The proposed project includes 32,899 square feet of retail space, 86 condominiums, and 254 hotel rooms, along with infrastructure and a parking garage. Staff has identified several potential deviations from the original Development Order, including changes in building height (proposed 106.75' vs. authorized 100'), setbacks (portions extending outside the 'Restricted Zone'), ingress/egress modifications (retaining a right-out exit onto Highway 98 instead of a shared drive), and potential changes in land use. The document outlines criteria for Major and Minor Deviations and presents two alternative motions for the Council: one to determine compliance and allow a Minor Deviation review, and another to determine non-compliance, requiring a Major Deviation review. Public comment is scheduled but not detailed in this agenda item text.

B. Any deviation from this final development order and approved plans that is less than the
This item concerns a proposed Major Deviation to a final development order for the HarborWalk Village site. The City Staff and Community Development Director have determined that the proposal requires a Major Deviation, which involves changes to conditions expressly imposed by the City Council, or changes that adversely affect compatibility, or changes the City Manager deems significant due to community impact. While specific details like address, size, and current/proposed use are not provided, the review process involves re-evaluating all criteria upon receipt of engineered drawings. This process could lead to site clearing, grading, utility work, paving, building construction, and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers should engage early to understand the project's scope as it moves through review, as this offers the best chance to compete for work before bids and permits are finalized.

A parking analysis for Harborwalk Village, a mixed-use development with restaurants, shops, short-term rentals, and a marina, has been completed. This analysis evaluated existing and planned parking for Phase I and Phase II development. The project is currently under review. The analysis determined that Harborwalk Village is compliant with the 2002 Land Development Code, with a surplus of parking spaces. Phase II plans include adding 573 parking spaces before reductions, bringing the total required spaces for both phases to 1,497. The total proposed spaces at Phase II completion will be 2,084, creating a surplus. This project would involve work related to parking infrastructure, potentially including site clearing, grading, paving, and the construction of new parking facilities. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers in site preparation, concrete, paving, and general construction may find opportunities. Early engagement could be beneficial as plans develop.

E. Harborwalk Village Parking Requirements Comparison
The City of Destin is reviewing parking requirements for Harborwalk Village, comparing rules from 2002 with those from 2025. This review is currently under consideration by the Special City Council.

H. Harborwalk Village Annotated Shopping Center Site Plan
A shared parking analysis has been completed for the Harborwalk Village development, which includes commercial shopping, restaurants, a hotel, entertainment, and office spaces. The analysis considered both existing (Phase I) and proposed (Phase II) development. Phase II proposes adding a hotel with 277 keys, 86 multifamily units, and new commercial spaces, including restaurants and retail. The project is currently under review, with a shared parking analysis indicating a need for significant parking capacity. This expansion would likely involve site preparation, construction of new buildings and parking structures, and extensive interior and exterior finishing work. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the project's scope and potential needs as plans develop.

This item concerns proposed changes to private roads within the public right-of-way in the City of Destin. The city is reviewing potential deviations to private roads and vehicular accessways. These changes must remain consistent with the established "Village Character" and the general character shown on Sheet L3 of approved plans. The review process involves City Engineering and comments are required before any Florida DOT permits are issued for deviations exceeding five feet. This is an early stage of review, meaning plans and permits are not yet finalized. Work could eventually involve site preparation, grading, utility adjustments, paving, and final landscaping, depending on the approved changes. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor this item as it progresses. Engaging early could provide an advantage before formal bidding and permitting processes begin.
