Top issues during term (20)
Property tax amendment and fiscal uncertainty
A 26% property tax reduction would hit mosquito control (98% property-tax funded) and city services hard.
Short-term and residential rental program compliance
Unregistered rental operators could face fines if violations are upheld.
Property maintenance and unpermitted structures
Owners could face fines and be ordered to make repairs.
Residential parking enforcement (vehicles, boats, trailers, RVs)
Fines from these cases could mean costs for the property owners cited.
Use of surplus Indian Trails parking funds and a future skate park
Roughly $1 million in one-time capital and impact fee dollars must be spent on recreation.
animal services funding dispute
Would add a per-animal or contract cost to the city budget, amount not yet determined.
stormwater construction standards
About $700,000 across the three studies today, plus the pipe rehabilitation contracts.
sales tax increase vote
A half-cent hike would add 50 cents to every $100 you spend on taxable stuff in the Palm Coast area.
water system disinfection change
This is a routine operational switch, so residents shouldn’t expect a direct bill impact; any costs are folded into normal utility operations.
Planning board training on open government and hearing procedure
No direct cost to residents — this is procedural education for board members.
city council election
Her growth-focused campaign could affect development costs and taxpayer spending on roads and services, though no specific dollar figures are attached yet.
Growth, water infrastructure debt, and westward expansion
The city carries a $284 million refinanced water facility loan supporting growth infrastructure.
Data center regulation and the DC Blocks cable landing station
Pedestrian and traffic safety at trail crossings and Town Center intersection
The city paid $400,000 for turn-lane property at the intersection.
Residential code enforcement docket
Respondents found in violation could face fines that increase for repeat and recurring offenses.
Builder clearing and earthwork violations
Repeat animal cruelty offenders and code enforcement
Affordable housing land donation to Habitat for Humanity
Forfeits potential sale value of two lots (estimated $70,000–$90,000 each) but avoids continued maintenance costs.
Flagler County Airport aviation fuel facility
County-level $3.2 million FDOT-funded agreement; no direct city cost.
Sheriff's Office budget and law enforcement staffing
Sheriff's request exceeds $400 per capita for law enforcement, with new cost pressures from the state and insurance.
