This item proposes to name the city-owned baseball complex at Hammond Park, located at 2142 Melson Ave, Jacksonville, FL, in Council District 9. The proposed name is the “Warren A. Jones Baseball Complex at Hammond Park.” This action requires waiving a city ordinance that generally prohibits naming public facilities after living persons. The proposal is currently under review, having been introduced and referred for public hearings. If approved, the project would involve installing new signage at the baseball complex. This could create opportunities for businesses involved in signage fabrication and installation, as well as potentially for administrative services related to public facility naming procedures. Early engagement with city officials or the applicant could provide insight into the timeline and specific requirements for this naming project.
