    Boasting beautiful natural vistas and endless recreational opportunities, the City of Palm Coast, Florida, is situated on 97 square miles along saltwater and freshwater canals and the Intracoastal Waterway, just minutes from breathtaking views of pristine Atlantic Ocean beaches. The growing, dynamic community of more than 107,000 residents is located in Flagler County, with Interstate 95 running through the City and intersecting with Interstate 4, providing convenient connectivity with Daytona Beach, Orlando, and Tampa.

    The Mayor and City Council Members serve as the political head of the City and are responsible for setting policy, approving the budget, determining the tax rate, and formulating broad long-term policies that outline the City's public function.
