1534 Oak Street Project: Rules Committee Meeting

Tuesday, November 16, 2010

Rules Committee Meeting

Today, the Rules Committee of the Jacksonville City Council, voted 4-1 to pass Resolution 2010-813 to support bill J3 to add 5 Points to the the boundaries that were first passed with HB 485. This will allow small entrepreneurs to more easily open full service restaurants in the 5 Points area.

The measure goes before the full Council next Tuesday November 23rd.

Support of this measure will be a potential positive revenue stream for the city and have no cost to the city.

Fell free to call or email me with any questions.

Thanks for the support.

About

The 1534 Oak Street Project will establish a unique multi-use building in the heart of the vibrant and diverse 5 Points neighborhood, on land that for years was derelict. Through the addition of office space, Jacksonville’s first true rooftop lounge, and a new restaurant from the team behind Chew and Restaurant Orsay, the project will make an important contribution to the ongoing revitalization of 5 Points.

The new building at 1534 Oak Street Project will be a long-lasting and attractive addition to the architecture of historic 5 Points. Through innovative urban in-fill design, the project will create a multi-use building that maximizes the use of space in a style that is progressive yet timeless.

The 1534 Oak Street Project is one of the few current, major, private developments in Jacksonville’s urban core. It will drive significant economic value during its development and through the businesses that will call it home. The project will create dozens of jobs in construction and in hospitality and bring increased tax revenues and other economic benefits to the neighborhood and to the City of Jacksonville.

The unique team behind the 1534 Oak Street Project represents a rare coming-together of individuals and brands that share a common vision and values. Black Sheep Restaurant Group, DW Meyers Constructors and Design Cooperative are all native to Jacksonville and are committed to the sensitive implementation of this forward-looking development project.
