Palm Coast Prepares for New Garbage Contract as Waste Pro starts Inappropriate Courtship of Council Members

Waste Pro has been Palm Coast’s garbage hauler since 2007. That contract is up in 2022. (© FlaglerLive) Last Updated: Feb. 15, 11:12 a.m. Garbage hauling is a dirty but lucrative business, giving haulers a monopoly and guaranteed income in cities and counties for years at a time. It’s also cut-throat competitive. Waste Pro’s current contract with Palm Coast is a $9 million-a-year business, up from $7 million a decade ago. When a contract is up in a local government, haulers not only respond to requests for proposals. They also often swoop in with the lobbying and the courting of local officials–if those officials let them.

Under Threat of Lawsuit, Palm Coast Kills Golf Course Cell Tower

There will be no cell tower over the Palm Harbor golf course. (© FlaglerLive) It may not be an understatement when a Palm Coast City Council member calls it “a great day”–not when even Dennis McDonald, the city’s Tamerlane, tells council members he’s smiling beneath his mask as he thanks them “very much for being the good neighbor.” Or when Lou Vitale, who heads Protect Palm Coast, the community opposition group created in the wake of a city proposal to develop areas of the Palm Harbor golf course, declares himself “grateful” for a council decision. Ending one of the most furious backlashes against a city initiative in recent years, Mayor Milissa Holland today moved to deny the city’s own contractor a proposed lease to build a 150-foot cell tower in the heart of the city-owned Palm Harbor golf course. The vote was unanimous.

Vote Clears Lakeview Estates Development in Place of Matanzas Golf

Residents around the long-disused Matanzas golf course have largely opposed a proposed new development on some of the fairways, though the Palm Coast City Council adopted and expanded on development restrictions imposed by city planners. (© FlaglerLive) The Palm Coast City Council this morning voted 4-1 to approve on second and final reading the proposed Lakeview Estates development that would transform the long-disused Matanzas Golf course into a residential home development of more than 200 houses. The vote added to already-strict city demands on the developer, expanding a required buffer on one of the tracts to 150 feet instead of 100. On Jan. 5, the council voted 3-2 to approve the development on first reading, but with key restrictions over which the developer and city planners had haggled over and reached impasse. The development would be spread over 10 parcels that roughly overlay the old golf course.

Savings and Revenue Allow Palm Coast to Hire Cops and Restore Raises

Palm Coast City Manager Matt Morton likes his decisions driven by data. (© FlaglerLive) Ultra-conservative isn’t necessarily the most venerated way to describe government. In Palm Coast’s fiscal management this year, it may well be, and it is allowing the city to hire two additional sheriff’s deputies, restore employee raises, and restore the city manager’s own raise, which he had declined last year on the approach of Covid’s era of uncertainty. The Palm Coast City Council learned today that a combination of City Manager Matt Morton’s hiring, salary and other spending freezes, less dire revenue shortfalls associated with the coronavirus pandemic, more-than-expected tax revenue and a significant assist from Covid-related federal aid known as the Cares Act, the city is in a far better financial position today than it projected it would be once the pandemic started and when it prepared its current budget last year.

In 3-2 vote, Palm Coast City Council approves Lakeview Estates development — with restrictions

2 months ago Share The council approved a version of the development favored by the city s planning board rather than the one proposed by the developer. A proposed 268-home development on the former Matanzas Woods Golf Course property got the Palm Coast City Council s go-ahead in a split 3-2 vote the night of Jan. 5, but the approval also places limitations on the developer in order to protect existing residents views. The council, rather than approving the Lakeview Estates proposal as Matanzas GC Palm Coast LLC developer Alexander Ustilovsky had submitted it, opted instead to approve a variation favored by the city s staff and the Planning and Land Development Regulation Board, which sought broader buffers between the existing homes and the proposed new ones on several parcels of the 280.6-acre, 10-tract property.
