Summary

Planning staff told the board they will continue proposed Land Development Code and comprehensive plan text amendments to allow public workshops; the board voted to continue both items and scheduled workshops for April 28 at 4:00 p.m. to solicit public input.

Walton County planning staff told the planning board they will continue and workshop proposed text amendments to the Land Development Code (LDC) and to the comprehensive plan so citizens can review and comment on the draft ordinance language.

Staff said the LDC changes are largely routine and could be covered quickly, while the comprehensive plan amendments contain more material and merit a separate workshop. After discussing calendar availability, the board agreed to schedule the LDC and comp‑plan workshops on April 28 at 4:00 p.m. in the planning meeting room; a motion to continue both items and schedule the workshops carried on a voice vote.

Staff indicated the workshops will let residents ask questions about specific code language and the DPZ/EAR recommendations that inform the comp‑plan amendments. No formal action on the text amendments was taken at the hearing; the workshops will precede any formal recommendation or ordinance drafting.
