Downtown Ocala Redevelopment Advisory Committee · 2026-04-28 · meeting

The Downtown Ocala Redevelopment Advisory Committee met to discuss upcoming projects and initiatives. Several potential business opportunities were identified for local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers. These include a mixed-use development planned for 1.5 acres at Broadway Street and Northeast 1st Avenue, which could involve site preparation, concrete, paving, framing, roofing, and building material supply. Another mixed-use development is planned for Northeast 1st Avenue and Northeast 3rd Street, featuring 100 dwelling units and 10,000 square feet of commercial space, potentially creating work for land clearing, civil engineering, utility contracting, concrete, paving, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, landscaping, and building material suppliers. Additionally, a Sand and Sun Festival is under review for the downtown area, which may require event planning and temporary structure services.
