Crestview meeting summaries, agendas, and minutes

Crestview agendas: storm debris contract, land development code changes and code enforcement hearings

Crestview's recent and upcoming government meetings are documented so far only by agendas. No minutes have been published for the three meetings listed in the past two weeks, so this roundup contains no vote tallies, no dollar amounts and no final outcomes — only what each agenda says was set for discussion or action.

City Council, Oct. 19: storm debris contract and utility task orders

The City Council agenda for Oct. 19 lists a storm debris contract alongside several infrastructure items: a Barge task order for sewer model phase 3A, Jacobs Task Order 2026-02 for reclaimed pump station design, and bid approval for John King Utility Relocation ITB 26-09-29-PS. The meeting summary also lists presentations for emergency responders and city personnel.

The agenda does not state contract values, bid amounts or whether any item was approved. Those details would appear in minutes, which have not been published.

Special Magistrate, Oct. 20: red light and code enforcement cases

The Special Magistrate was scheduled to hold hearings on one red light violation, #1012000000283618, and four code enforcement cases: #26-496, #26-586, #26-598 and #26-614.

The agenda summary does not identify the properties involved or describe the alleged violations, and no hearing results have been published.

Mayor's Advisory Council, Oct. 13: Youth Summit and Holiday Light Display

An agenda dated Oct. 13 lists review of action items on a Youth Summit and a Holiday Light Display, plus approval of minutes from the Sept. 8, 2026, meeting.

One discrepancy in the record: the meeting is listed under the body "City Council," while the headline refers to the Mayor's Advisory Council. The agenda summary does not resolve which body was to meet, and no outcome was published.

Coming up: Oct. 26 City Council

The City Council is set to take up amendments to the Land Development Code on administrative waivers (listed as Ordinance 2026) and a new ordinance on cottage foods home occupations (listed as Ordinance 2040). The agenda also lists Resolution 2027-01, a Comprehensive Fee Schedule amendment, the Barge task order for sewer model phase 3A, and an Okaloosa County 911 memorandum of agreement.

The agenda does not include the text of the ordinances, the fee amounts involved, or the terms of the 911 agreement. Residents who want the specifics should read the full agenda packet rather than rely on this summary.

What this roundup can and cannot tell you

Every item above is drawn from agenda summaries. An agenda listing means a matter was scheduled; it does not establish that anything was decided, and it does not establish that a scheduled item was taken up. Where the record is silent — on votes, on amounts, on which properties are subject to code enforcement — this article leaves it silent rather than filling the gap.

Coming up

• **City Council, Oct. 26** — Land Development Code amendments on administrative waivers, the cottage foods home occupations ordinance, the Comprehensive Fee Schedule amendment, the sewer model task order and the Okaloosa County 911 agreement. This is the only upcoming meeting in the supplied record for the next 14 days.

The official agendas and any published minutes are the authoritative record and should be consulted for final language, amounts and outcomes.

Crestview council takes up annexation, budget; minutes pending

The Crestview City Council met Aug. 10 for a budget workshop and a regular meeting that included first readings on the Third Avenue annexation and related rezoning, as well as a discussion of anti-data center rules. Minutes from these meetings have not yet been published, so no official actions are recorded. The Planning and Development Board also held public hearings Aug. 3 on the same annexation and rezoning items.

Annexation and rezoning on Third Avenue and other properties

The council's Aug. 10 agenda included first readings on several ordinances: Ordinance 2027 (Third Avenue Annexation), Ordinance 2028 (Third Avenue Comprehensive Plan Amendment), and Ordinance 2029 (Third Avenue Rezoning). The council also considered first readings on Ordinance 2030 (Garden Street Rezoning) and Ordinance 2032 (Harrisburg Estates Rezoning). These same items were the subject of public hearings before the Planning and Development Board on Aug. 3, which also listed Ordinance 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, and 2032 on its agenda. No votes or outcomes are available because minutes have not been published.

Budget workshop and joint CRA meeting

The City Council held a budget workshop on Aug. 10 to review a draft budget presentation. According to the agenda, no votes or final decisions were scheduled; the meeting was primarily a discussion and information session. Later that day, the Community Redevelopment Agency and City Council held a joint special meeting to review the draft budget and hear a presentation of audited financial statements by Purvis Gray. That agenda also included approval of minutes from Aug. 25, 2025, and Sept. 29, 2025, along with reports from the CRA director and city manager.

Anti-data center rules and other action items

The council's regular meeting agenda included Action Item 10.1 on anti-data center prohibitions. The agenda also referenced the FY27 employee benefits plan, task orders, a Head Start lease extension, and grant agreements as part of the consent agenda. Specific details on these items were not provided in the agenda summary.

Coming up

Two meetings are scheduled in the next 14 days:

• **City Council (Mayor's Advisory Council)** – Aug. 17: The advisory council will review a youth survey, receive an update on a private organization youth townhall, consider an extension of the Crestview 101 Citizen's Academy, and get an update on the Okaloosa County 250 Celebration. The agenda is largely procedural, with no votes on ordinances or contracts.
• **Special Magistrate** – Aug. 18: A public hearing will consider red light/school zone violations (case numbers 1012000000270870 and 1012000000271951) and code enforcement cases, including animal control matters and cases 26-157, 26-239, 26-469, 26-375, and 26-343.

All recent meeting minutes remain unpublished, so residents should check the city's official channels for final actions and decisions.
