What building in Palm Valley actually involves
- The ground
- Sand ridges dropping into salt marsh, so the usable building envelope often ends well short of the water.
- The water
- The Intracoastal here has real tidal current and commercial boat traffic — dock and lift structures take a working load, not a recreational one.
- The building stock
- Waterfront customs and older houses on deep lots, with dock capability driving property value as much as the house does.
- The rules
- Permits run through St. Johns County Building Services, and Corps of Engineers and state submerged-lands authorization before any county permit for over-water structures.
