Santa Rosa County is proposing to rezone approximately 29 acres of land located on Lands End Lane in Gulf Breeze. The property is currently zoned R1 Single Family Residential and has a Future Land Use (FLU) of SFR. The proposal is to change the zoning to P1 Passive Park and the FLU to CON/REC Conservation/Recreation. This change is planned to allow the county-owned land, which includes sensitive wetland sawgrass, a salt marsh, and watershed area, to be used as a passive park for public enjoyment and permanent conservation. The Zoning Board has recommended approval of this rezoning. This project would involve site preparation for conservation and passive recreational use, potentially including minimal clearing, grading, and the establishment of trails or viewing areas. Contractors specializing in site preparation, landscaping, and potentially light construction for park amenities could find opportunities as this project moves forward. Early engagement is advised as site plans and permits are developed.
