Palm Coast – The Palm Coast City Council meets regularly to discuss and vote on official City business. These meetings are open to the public, and Palm Coast residents are strongly encouraged to attend. An increase in public engagement helps to build a stronger sense of community, increases valuable discussions, and decreases division.

A special budget workshop meeting will take place beginning at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, March 24, 2023. No action will be taken during the workshop. Details of the items on the agenda are listed below.

  • The City of Palm Coast will present a presentation discussing the existing Strategic Action Plan process, priorities, and direction moving forward.
