While working as Director of Planning for Taylor and White Engineers, I designed this 150 acre mixed-use PUD for the west side of Jacksonville on Beaver Street. Unfortunately, the owner went bankrupt before the zoning was approved by the Planning and Development Department. It was an ambitious plan to turn a former dairy into a PUD containing a commercial core, and residential elements of various densities. The plan included land dedicated for school site and a fire/police station. Land was also dedicated for a JEA facility to provide water and sewer service. As with most rural (and suburban) projects, traffic concurrency was a limiting factor.
