NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
FLAGLER COUNTY / CITY OF PALM COAST AFFORDABLE
HOUSING ADVISORY COMMITTEE (AHAC)
Pursuant to Section 420.9076, Florida Statutes, the Flagler County / City of Palm Coast Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, November 4, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. at the Flagler County Emergency Operations Center, Training Room B, 1769 E. Moody Blvd., Building 3, Bunnell, Florida.
The purpose of the hearing is for the AHAC to adopt its evaluation of local affordable housing incentive strategies and its final recommendations for submission to the Flagler County Board of County Commissioners and the Palm Coast City Council.
Florida law requires AHACs to review the implementation of eleven incentive strategies that encourage affordable housing, including expedited permitting, fee waivers, flexible densities and lot configurations, accessory dwelling units, modification of development standards, inventory of public lands, and processes for reviewing the housing cost impacts of local policies. Consistent with the state housing strategy in ยง420.0003, F.S., these efforts are intended to create and preserve affordably priced housing by providing incentives for the private sector to deliver housing, thereby reducing or eliminating the need for government-subsidized or government-constructed housing.
Draft recommendations under consideration include adoption of an Accessory Dwelling Unit ordinance and affordable housing incentives by the City of Palm Coast, policies for affordable set-asides in planned developments, a policy and process involving AHAC for reviewing new ordinances and fees that may impact housing costs, and a policy for reviewing public lands with long-term affordability provisions to keep assisted units within the local housing inventory.
The draft evaluation and recommendations are available at Flagler County Health and Human Services, 1000 Belle Terre Blvd., Palm Coast, FL 32164, or by request at [email protected] or (386) 586-2324. Persons with disabilities requiring accommodation to participate should contact the Health and Human Services Department at least three business days prior to the hearing.
All interested persons are invited to attend and be heard.
