Flagler County Land Development Code

Flagler County is soliciting proposals from qualified professional planning, zoning, land use, urban design, engineering, and legal consulting firms to conduct a comprehensive review and rewrite of the Flagler County Land Development Code (LDC). The primary objective is to modernize land development regulations, implement the adopted Comprehensive Plan, and improve the clarity and predictability of the development review process. The updated LDC must be legally defensible, internally consistent, and tailored to the unique characteristics of unincorporated Flagler County, including its rural, agricultural, coastal, and urbanizing areas. The selected consultant will collaborate with County staff, the Board of County Commissioners, and various community stakeholders to ensure the regulations support long-term growth, conservation, and quality of life. The solicitation, identified as 26-RFP-026, was posted on September 29, 2026, with a response deadline of October 20, 2026. Award decisions will be based on the best overall value, considering both responsiveness and the greatest benefit to the County, rather than price alone. Proposers must provide a not-to-exceed project cost, a detailed cost breakdown, and hourly rates. The contract term lasts until project completion, with payment for undisputed invoices remitted within 45 days. Key requirements include compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, Florida Statutes, and specific certifications regarding human trafficking and scrutinized companies. The project is managed by the Growth Management department, with Jessica Martin serving as the primary procurement contact.
