The St. Johns County Board of County Commissioners approved a request to rezone 34.12 acres northeast of Interstate 95 and County Road 210 for Fountains North, a mixed-use development where a hospital plans to build.
The property was rezoned from open rural to planned unit development to allow two development options of 650,000 square feet, according to WJCT News partner the Jacksonville Daily Record.
Option one proposes 500,000 square feet for a hospital; 70,000 square feet of medical and professional office use; 30,000 square feet for outpatient surgical; 50,000 square feet for retail and restaurant use; and 300 multifamily units.
Planner Bradley Wester, with the Driver McAfee Hawthorne & Diebenow law firm, said the hospital client is under contract to acquire the property but he was unable to disclose the name.
