Nearly 200 residents — mostly of the L-section — packed the cafeteria Aug. 8 at Indian Trails Middle School to let their voices be heard about Sawgrass Villas, a proposed 50-unit multifamily apartment complex that would be planted between Leidel and Lee drives.
When polled by one of the residents, everyone present was opposed to the project.
Nothing is set in stone yet, according to Jay Livingston, the attorney representing the landowner, Putnam State Bank.
However, the city of Palm Coast’s Land Development Code requires at least one neighborhood meeting be held with property owners in close proximity of a proposed development project to present details and receive feedback from neighbors.
Many of the residents urged the Palm Coast City Council to get involved; however, Frank Meeker, the council member who presides over Matanzas Woods, said the City Council isn’t involved in the process at this point.
Livingston said the landowner is open to viable alternatives for land use.
