The Palm Coast City County on Tuesday approved the final plat for 81 homes in Whiteview Village, phase two of a two-phased development of 202 homes approved as a master-planned development by the council in 2018. Construction began in 2021.
The gated development is at the southwest corner of the intersection of Pine Lakes Parkway and White Mill Drive. Final platting covers 21 acres in a 97-acre development, bordering Woodbury Drive to the northwest and Woodborn Lane to the east.
KB Homes has been building houses in the first phase portion and built infrastructure in the second, where new streets will have such names as Windsor terrace, Waverly Lane, and Willow Street. The subdivision will have entry and exit points through Wisteria Hill Drive on White Mill Drive.
Street paving and maintenance will be the responsibility of the developer and the future homeowner associations, not the city. In both phases most lots are between 45 to 55 feet wide, with some a bit wider.
The 97 acres’ boundary forms an uneven pentagon, with the southeast corner carved out to another property owner, Atlanta-based Marbella Apartments, which last August bought those 16 acres from the Miral Corporation for $6.25 million. A few months earlier, the Palm Coast Planning Board had cleared the way for a 316-unit apartment complex there.
Both KB Homes and Miral had placed their developments as necessary housing, including workforce housing, in light of the new AdventHealth Palm Coast hospital on palm Coast Parkway. The developers of the apartment complex have submitted their technical site plan but construction has not begun. In Whiteview Village, homes are being marketed in the $300,000 range.
The final-plat vote was more of a formality for the city council, which considered it briefly, with no discussion other than a couple of clarifying points, before a unanimous vote. The item drew no public response at Tuesday’s meeting.
Stand-alone lots aside, the Whiteview master planned development is rising on what had been the last large tract of unbuilt acreage in the W-Section.

When will the developer(KB & ??) Correct the Drainage Problems( during heavy rain storms ) on the sidewalks on Pine Lakes and White Mill? Palm Coast must STOP issuing building permits until the Drainage Problems are CORRECTED!!!

Build, build build more houses more traffic, more empty stores. Way to go City of PC once again showing the taxpayers you do not know how to manage a City.

Whole town is asphalt, gas stations, storage buildings, dollar stores. Heck im trying to sell and get out of this place before it really goes to hell. More people, housing, traffic, 24-7 trucks developing beautiful woodlands is not my idea of a peaceful retirement.

Sorry to break this to folks who are anti-development.
#1 State projections on the high side have Flagler County at 221,000 by 2050. Palm Coast is about 78% of the County. That means City estimates are around 178,000 people. These are not goals, but information to plan.
#2 This City is no where near built out. This not new land. These are parcels platted and owned for decades.
#3 Development is happening because of demand. It’s not build it and they will come. It’s build because they are coming.
#4 We are not seeing explosive growth. We saw about half of population increase in this City since 2000 in the first decade of incorporation. That was explosive growth. It’s been single digit gradual growth over the past 13 years.
#5 Yes, we have the infrastructure. Infrastructure is always a work in progress. There has been a ton done here in the past 23 years.
#6 Land owners have rights and rightfully the government has no right to deny an owner their development rights.
#7 Development is economic development and impact.
I get being opposed to development that would legitimately cause negative impact to one’s property value. That is not the case with this and many other projects.

Brad W,
1.When it takes me 20 additional minutes to get across town.
2. Extra millage purposed for canals and road replacement.
3. And a property manager telling me she has 40 + rentals she is having difficulty finding tenants for due to all the houses on the market, I fail to see where we are not getting over populated. Just because someone thought it was a great idea 30 years ago, does not mean that logic stands true today.

Don’t Republicans ruin the City of Palm Coast? Y’all kerosene voting for Republicans this is what you get. I just love how Republicans are ruining this city. This is just the start of bad things to come under Republican control.
Rob Spano says
Republicans may not be the solution to all your problems.
But, Democrats are the cause of all our problems!
Wake up!
M&M says
Prove your comment, Rob Stano.
