St. Johns County Golf Course Master Plan Update

(01.18.19) The St. Johns Golf Club, 4900 Cypress Links Blvd., is currently in the process of a potential Master Plan update that would include repairing, replacing, and updating various aspects of the golf course. St. Johns County released a Request for Proposals (RFP) in November 2018 to determine market interest in a potential public-private partnership to utilize excess land within the golf course in exchange for the renovations. An RFP evaluation committee ranked the two qualified proposals during a public meeting on December 20, 2018, and a Letter of Intent was issued to the most qualified applicant, Neighborhood Realty, Inc./McGarvey Residential Communities.

The Board of County Commissioners unanimously voted to authorize staff to negotiate a contract with the most qualified applicant at the January 15, 2019 board meeting. That process is currently underway and a negotiated contract will be presented to the Board of County Commissioners for consideration and action at a future public hearing.
