A project is under review for new construction and additions at 306 S 7th St in Fernandina Beach. The proposal includes single-family detached homes and outbuildings, with lot coverage up to 60% allowed in the R-2 Zoning District. The plan details exterior materials like architectural wall panels, PVC trim, a metal roof, Pella windows, and a coquina driveway with pavers. Mechanical equipment will need to be screened if placed outside. The project is currently under review by the Historic District Council (HDC) for conceptual approval. This review stage means that site clearing, grading, foundation work, framing, roofing, and installation of windows, doors, and exterior finishes will likely be part of the project scope. Contractors, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early, before final bids and permits are issued, to understand the project's needs and potential opportunities.
