05:20 AM EST Share Officials for Jacksonville’s city-owned utility will reengage JaxPort officials about the future of the 2,000-acre site.
JEA halted its search for a master developer for 2,000 acres, including the St. Johns River Power Park and surrounding parcels, as the utility’s CEO plans to reengage JaxPort officials and other community leaders about redeveloping the property.
Jacksonville’s municipal electric and water utility issued a notice Jan. 21 formally rescinding a request for qualifications to solicit interest from companies internationally to determine the best use for the northern Duval County property.
JEA released the request Nov. 2. It includes 1,100 developable acres that housed a decommissioned coal-fired power plant, the St. Johns River Coal Terminal and other parcels.
