This item concerns a proposed change to the City of Destin's Land Development Code, specifically Section 11.05.00 regarding Marina Siting. The proposed amendment would change the review process for single-family residential docks. Currently, these docks require review by staff, the Harbor and Waterways Board, and the City Council. The amendment seeks to remove the need for review by the Harbor and Waterways Board and the City Council, making it a staff-level review only. This item is currently under review, having its second reading before the City Council. While no construction is directly proposed, this change could affect future dock projects. Contractors specializing in marine construction, suppliers of dock materials, and related service providers may find opportunities as this code amendment moves forward. Early engagement with the city or developers could provide insight into potential future projects.
