In a 4-0 vote, the Palm Coast City Council approved Colbert Landings as the city’s fifth Community Development District on March 7.
The vote was a second-reading vote.
The proposed Colbert Landing development will have 482 single-family homes spread over 293 acres on the west side of Colbert Lane just north of State Road 100.
Colbert Landings joins the city’s four other CDDs: Grand Haven, Palm Coast Park, Town Center and Seminole Palms, the 653-unit apartment complex in the works at Seminole Woods Boulevard and U.S. 1.
A CDD, City Attorney Neysa Borkert said in a previous meeting, is like a small city, where the district is responsible for installing, maintaining and repairing some of the infrastructure.
For the Colbert Landings CDD, the city would only be responsible for water and wastewater systems and some offsite improvements, Environmental Planner Jordan Myers said at a Feb. 21 meeting.
Mayor David Alfin said that he can see the benefits for the city when the developer is responsible for the infrastructure.
"I personally would envision that there will be additional CDDs in the future," Alfin said. "I can see that number increasing."
