Surveying in Flagler County
Flagler County is one of Florida's fastest-growing small counties, driven primarily by Palm Coast — a master-planned community originally developed by ITT Corporation in the 1970s with over 125,000 platted lots and 46 miles of canals. Surveyors encounter a unique pre-platted grid system where many lots remain unimproved.
Flagler Beach and the Hammock area along the A1A corridor face severe coastal erosion, with the Coastal Construction Control Line playing a critical role in permitting. Beach surveys must account for ongoing shoreline retreat and dune restoration projects.
The Intracoastal Waterway bisects the county's eastern portion, and the extensive salt marsh and mangrove ecosystems of the Matanzas estuary create sensitive environmental survey zones where habitat mapping may be required for development permits.
