Overview: In a recent Gulf County Council meeting, members voted unanimously to approve a land use change from residential to mixed commercial for a 0.41-acre property located on Highway 71 South in Wewahitchka, Florida. The property, owned by Christopher and Jamie Bunch, was incorrectly sold as mixed commercial residential, causing issues when the Bunches planned to establish a nursery on the site. The Planning Board had previously voted 3-0 in favor of the change. The Council also discussed a demolition request from the city of Port St. Joe and a significant bid award for a construction project.
