A proposal is under review to amend the land use designation for a property located at 0 Granite Place. The current designation is Water Dependent-Water Related (WD-WR), and the proposed change is to Light Industrial (LI). The property is described as being three-quarters salt marsh and one-quarter upland, with no direct water access for port activities. The proposed change would allow a potential buyer to park five box trucks for a moving company, as the current designation does not clearly permit this non-port-related use. This item is currently under review by the Jacksonville Waterways Commission. If approved, the project would involve clearing accumulated trash and debris from the site, followed by site plan development and adherence to city procedures. Contractors specializing in site clearing, general construction, and potentially environmental remediation could find opportunities. Reaching out to the applicant or planning department early could provide insight into future needs before formal plans and permits are finalized.
