Palm Coast resident Scott McDonald is running for mayor in the 2024 election.

McDonald said in his biography on the Flagler County Supervisor of Elections website that he is running because he is "passionate about making it the best place possible for all of our residents." He owns Flagler Fungi, a local business that sells gourmet mushrooms to local farmers markets.

McDonald is committed to making Palm Coast a leader in technology innovation, the biography said, with a focus on solving many of the city's challenges, like traffic congestion, climate change and affordable housing. McDonald said he would also make infrastructure, public safety, education and economic development his priorities.

"I am running for Mayor because I believe that Palm Coast has the potential to be one of the best places to live in the United States," McDonald said. "I have the experience, the skills, and the vision to lead our city into the future."
