Summary
Growth is one of the biggest stories in Walton County, but what happens behind the scenes often gets overlooked. In this episode of the HWY 331 Podcast, Kerri Parker sits down with Marina Khoury of DPZ CoDesign to unpack Walton 2040, the county’s long range planning process that helps shape how Walton County grows in the years ahead.They explore what Walton 2040 really means for residents, why planning matters to everyday quality of life, and how decisions made today could impact housing, roads, natural spaces, and community character tomorrow. Marina also explains the balance between conservation and development, projected population growth, and a proposed framework for where future growth should happen, where areas should be maintained, and what lands should be preserved. Most importantly, this conversation highlights why public involvement matters. Walton County residents currently have opportunities to learn more and participate in the Land Development Code rewrite process through upcoming Community Roundtable sessions.
