South Walton Commerce Park PUD Amendment was one of the three major development projects coming before the TRC at the Nov. 15 meeting. This is a request on behalf of the St. Joe Timberland Company to develop 28 commercial lots and infrastructure on 98.93 acres east of Serenoa Road and north of U.S. 98 in southeastern Walton County. This is the third phase for the commerce park.
According to the project staff report, “The South Walton Commerce Park PUD was originally approved via Development Order #1674 on September 10, 2003 for 35 commercial lots and was platted on September 20, 2004. Phase II was approved for 21 commercial lots on March 18, 2021 and was platted on October 31, 2021.”
Speaking for the applicants, engineer David Smith told the committee members that the request is consistent with the previously-approved PUD for the commerce park and with the St. Joe Company’s Detailed Specific Area Plan (DSAP) 1.
Walton County had approved DSAP 1 in May 2020 for 2,435 mostly-vacant acres within southeastern Walton County.
Smith noted that reviewer comments remaining were very minor and capable of being easily addressed by the applicants.
The request was approved to advance to a hearing before the planning commission, the next step for the project, on the condition of the outstanding comments being satisfied.
