Welaunee Arch plan could bring 6,591 homes. Neighbors want more time
A growing number of residents want to slow down the permit approval process for a massive proposed zoning change that would create a city within the city in northeast Tallahassee. It involves land within the Welaunee Plantation property. The proposal consists of an amendment to the Conceptual Planned Unit Development (PUD) for 1,227 acres east of Centerville Road, west of Miccosukee Road and north of Interstate 10 in the Critical Planning Area zoning district. If approved, it would allow the construction of a town center, village center and neighborhood and residential zones within what's called the Welaunee Arch Phase I. The change could also greenlight the construction of up to 6,591 new homes and 425,000 square feet of commercial space and other non-residential areas. In a records request, the Tallahassee Democrat obtained dozens of emails leading up to the Sept. 14 Development Review Committee meeting, which resulted in unanimous conditional approval for the proposed amendment to move forward for the Welaunee Arch Phase I discussion. Records show most residents urged the committee to postpone making a decision, adding not enough time was given to digest the magnitude of the large-scale zoning amendment. Emails show major concerns over Welaunee Arch Phase

Popular Donut Kingdom opens new Tallahassee shop on Magnolia Drive
The day just got a little sweeter. After a year of waiting, the locally owned dessert shop Donut Kingdom has finally opened its new storefront on 413 N. Magnolia Drive. The family business, known for its handmade, daily assortment of fluffy pastries, closed its North Monroe Street location at the Lake Jackson Trading Post in June 2025. The newest location, housed in the Mahan Square Shopping Center, was originally anticipated to open in July 2025. The company announced its soft opening on Facebook Sept. 10. "The wait is finally over, and we can’t wait to welcome you through our doors! Come celebrate with us and grab your favorite donuts," the post said. In a conversation with the Tallahassee Democrat, Hiba Khalil of Donut Kingdom attributed the delay to permitting and contracting issues. "There were just so many moving pieces that kept pushing everything back, and as a small business it was definitely frustrating because we were ready to open what felt like forever ago," she said. "We even had customers asking us if we had given up on the location, and people were making jokes about it on Facebook because it had been so long — and honestly we were
