This updated ArcGIS-powered interactive map—titled “Walton County Planning Project Review Interactive Map”—serves as a vital public resource for residents, property owners, developers, applicants, and all stakeholders. It visualizes current and pending development projects with clear status indicators (“Under Review,” “Approved,” or “Other”), while integrating rich spatial layers including parcels, zoning, future land use designations, special flood hazard areas, Choctawhatchee Beach Mouse tiers, National Wetland Inventory, white sands protection areas, military influence zones, municipalities, BOCC districts, planning areas, and county boundaries.

The relaunch incorporates refinements to the interface, updated data layers, and enhanced performance to better support the County’s growing needs amid ongoing development in Walton County, updated monthly.

“This relaunch of the Project Review Map underscores our ongoing dedication to open government, technological modernization, and responsive public service,” said Stephen Schoen, Planning Director for Walton County. “By refreshing this essential tool, we make it easier for everyone to track development activity, understand regulatory contexts, and engage meaningfully in the growth shaping our communities—while continuing to protect the County’s unique coastal and natural heritage.”
