City Commission Regular Meeting · 2026-05-18 · agenda_item

The City of DeLand is considering a second amendment to the Stetson Lease Agreement for Melching Field. This amendment is part of a plan to allow for the completion of a new 20-year lease. The target date to begin the renovation project is June 2022. This project would involve site preparation, potential demolition, and new construction or renovation of facilities at Melching Field. The city is in the early stages of this process, with the lease amendment under review. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to reach out early to understand the project's scope and potential needs as plans develop. Engaging now, before final bids and permits are set, offers an advantage in securing future work.
