Jul 2026 · Infrastructure
Scenic Walton advances underground utilities and gateway landscape projects
Scenic Walton reported progress on countywide initiatives, including a $200,000 Freeport U.S. 331 gateway landscape project supported by a $100,000 FDOT Highway Beautification Grant, plus a 30A West gateway landscape project and early planning for countywide underground utilities. Funding for the utilities study advanced into Walton County's draft budget for fiscal year 2026 to 2027.
Why it matters: Advances roadway beautification and stormwater improvements along the Freeport U.S. 331 corridor and the 30A west gateway and lays groundwork for utility resilience upgrades across Walton County. The site is about 17 miles east of Deer Moss Creek.
DeSantis signs state budget with funding for Okaloosa County projects
Governor DeSantis signed the state budget that included roughly $15 million for 20 Okaloosa County projects, among them $5 million for the Northwest Florida State College Workforce Innovation Center in Niceville, $1.5 million for Shalimar Bridge Park, and $3 million for Destin road and drainage work. About $7.26 million in other local requests were vetoed.
Why it matters: Directs state funding toward workforce, park, road, and drainage infrastructure across Okaloosa County, supporting public facilities and capacity in Niceville, Shalimar, and Destin. The site is about 4 miles west of Deer Moss Creek.

The project by River Park Landing LLC will be built in three phases, with each phase requiring a separate development order approval.
Why it matters: Adds substantial single family housing supply to the Crestview market and phases new residential construction onto a large tract in north Okaloosa County. The project is about 18 miles northwest of Deer Moss Creek, elsewhere in Okaloosa County.
Okaloosa County opens $212M Southwest Crestview Bypass
Okaloosa County opened the $212 million Southwest Crestview Bypass, a 3.5 mile four lane corridor connecting Antioch Road to State Road 85 with access from U.S. Highway 90. The project includes a 1,713 foot bridge, sidewalks, a multi use path, and direct access to the new Pineview K-8 school opening in August 2026.
Why it matters: Adds a major four lane traffic corridor serving southwest Crestview and expands regional road capacity for surrounding growth in north Okaloosa County. The project is about 16 miles northwest of Deer Moss Creek, elsewhere in Okaloosa County.

Answered before you ask
Frequently asked questions
Why might my property taxes differ from the current owner's?
Florida's Save Our Homes rule caps annual assessment increases for homesteaded owners, and the assessment can be re-set after a sale. As a result a new owner's bill may differ from the seller's. Any tax figure shown here is an estimate, not the actual bill — confirm with the county property appraiser and tax collector.
Where does the flood-zone information come from?
The flood designation shown (Zone X) comes from the FEMA flood map and is provided for general information. Confirm the parcel's status with FEMA and your insurer.
Can I rely on the figures on this page?
No. Estimated taxes, insurance, payments, and any market or comparable-sales summary are opinions and estimates for general information only and should not be relied upon. Verify all information independently before making any decision.
