6. CONSENT AGENDA

City Commission Regular Meeting · 2026-06-02 · agenda_item

The City of Fernandina Beach is considering an amendment to a ground lease agreement with the Nassau Humane Society, Inc. This amendment, related to property at the Fernandina Beach Municipal Airport, would extend the lease term to 40 years. It also allows for the construction of a new animal rescue and adoption facility by the Nassau Humane Society. This item is currently under review by the City Commission. If approved, the project would involve site preparation, construction of a new building, and associated utility work. Contractors specializing in general construction, site work, concrete, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and roofing could find opportunities. Suppliers of building materials and equipment may also be involved. Engaging with the Nassau Humane Society early could provide insight into the project's scope and timeline before formal bidding processes begin.
