PBC Interactive, Palm Beach County’s first and only business development research website offering real-time, parcel-based data, now features zoning and future land-use designations for 11 municipalities in addition to unincorporated Palm Beach County.

Working in cooperation with Boca Raton, West Palm Beach, Jupiter, Boynton Beach, Riviera Beach, Juno Beach, Lake Park, Palm Beach Gardens, Gulf Stream, Royal Palm Beach and Wellington, the county has added property information from these municipalities to provide an even more comprehensive research tool.
Efforts will continue to include zoning and land-use designations from each of the 38 municipalities in the county to further assist businesses in their search for potential sites for location and expansion, as well as help members of the public and private sectors interested in land development issues.

PBC Interactive was launched last year through an effective collaboration between the Department of Economic Sustainability (DES), Planning, Zoning and Building, Information Systems Services, and the Property Appraiser’s Office.  Built within the design of myGeoNav, the application integrates several layers including industry codes (NAICS), land uses, enterprise zones, economic development organizations, property ownership information, and more.

To access the site, visit http://maps.co.palm-beach.fl.us/edo or go to the DES website atwww.pbcgov.com/des and click on the PBC Interactive icon.
