GREEN COVE SPRINGS – The Board of County Commissioners approved the purchase and sales agreement for an 8.5-acre parcel in the Clay Hill area for a future public safety facility.
The motion passed, 4-0. Adam Chapman, real estate acquisition manager for the county, said that the property is a flat, dry rectangle.
The property is across from Clay Hill Elementary on County Road 218.
One aspect remains most important, according to Chapman.
“The most important thing is that fire services want to be there,” he said.
The county also reviewed this year’s legislative priorities and previewed key issues they would be taking to the table to 2024 in a presentation.
Six of eight projects were approved, and $8 million of $9 million requested was approved, including $750,000 each for Fire Stations No. 20 and 24, $3 million for a Substance Abuse Recovery Center, $1 million for the Clay County Regional Sports Complex, $1.5 million for turns lanes for the Sports Complex and $1 million for the Clay County Greenways Expansion.
Next year is already coming fast. The legislative session will convene on Jan. 9, and Cost of Living Adjustments to the Florida System Retirement plan and affordable housing will be considered for next year’s legislative session.
An approval for a Right of Way Easement for Clay Electric for the Regional Sports Complex also passed unanimously.
