What We Do

The Ponte Vedra Beaches Coalition is comprised of community members spanning all neighborhoods in Ponte Vedra and Palm Valley.

Our goal is to stay updated on current and vital issues in our county that impact the welfare of our residents and visitors. We update our members with the Neighborhood Bills of Rights, which notifies the districts of upcoming hearings in-front of the Architectural Review Committee, The County Commissioners, The Zoning Board and the Ponte Vedra  Zoning and Adjustment Board. We meet monthly to discuss and organize community efforts to protect our environment and lifestyle.

The PVB Coalition has succesfully worked together on such  community issues as preventing LED Digital Billboards into St. Johns County. We work together to learn about and support the candidates who are running for County Commissioner, School Board seats, etc. We educate our neighbors on the ongoing traffic studies and the impacts that are involved with the various potential development plans. We stay active with the annual county budget hearings, to stay on top of how our tax monies are being spent. We strive to maintain our trees, our wildlife, our lifestyle and an intelligent growth pattern. We work as a collective, to better our community.  

Reach out to us Today

Anyone can be involved with the Ponte Vedra Beaches Coalition and can be included in our email list to be involved and informed. Please just contact us for further information, or to be added to the list. Our meetings are open to the public and we are interested in exploring and learning about all issues that impact us near and far.

Sea Turtle Nesting Season 

The beaches of St. Johns County are home to several species of endangered or threatened sea turtles. Residents and visitors have a special opportunity and responsibility to protect these magnificent creatures and their vulnerable nesting sites as they return each season to nest. Nesting season began May 1, and County officials are asking residents, visitors, and businesses to help protect natural habitat by observing all nesting season laws and regulations. All beachfront properties are required to reduce their impact by eliminating interior and exterior lights which may disrupt nesting sea turtles. Volleyball court lights at St. Johns County Pier Park will turn on at sunset and turn off at 9 p.m.  https://www.visitflorida.com/en-us/thing
