Jacksonville City Council has approved a rezoning of 237.46 acres at the intersection of I-295 and SR9B from Commercial Community/General-1 (CCG-1) to Planned Unit Development (PUD). This mixed-use development will feature a combination of retail, office, entertainment, and residential uses, creating a regional commercial hub. The project includes a surf park, hotels, restaurants, and a variety of housing types, integrating commercial and entertainment venues within a well-planned urban setting. The PUD zoning allows flexibility in site planning to create a dynamic, compact, and pedestrian-friendly environment. The project will enhance Jacksonville’s commercial and residential offerings, attracting tourism and providing job opportunities.
This rezoning allows for a major mixed-use development, incorporating residential, commercial, and entertainment uses into one cohesive district. The project will stimulate economic growth, increase employment opportunities, and enhance the city's overall infrastructure and recreational offerings.
