The City of Fernandina Beach is considering establishing a Community Redevelopment Area (CRA). This process involves a finding that certain areas have conditions needing redevelopment. The University of Florida's Center for Building Better Communities has completed a study to support this finding. This initial step is part of a larger plan to address public health, safety, and welfare through redevelopment. The project is currently in the planning and review phase. Future work could involve site clearing, grading, utility work, paving, building construction, and landscaping, depending on the specific redevelopment plans. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers should engage early to understand potential future needs as plans develop. This early engagement can provide an advantage before formal bids and permits are issued.
