Site work for a mixed-use development in Fort Mc Coy, Florida. Conceptual plans call for site work for a playground / park / athletic field; and water / sewer project.

The Gores Landing Improvement is a master plan project that will be completed in two phases. Phase 1 will include the design, engineering, permitting, and removal of existing structures and new construction. Phase 2 will include the removal of existing restrooms; construction of ADA-accessible restrooms that includes showers, mirrors, and hot water; replace existing antiquated wastewater system; replace existing boat ramp with single lane ramp; rework boat channel; establish designated trailer parking with ADA access; construct ADA lateral fishing platform; establish designated campsites with amenities and ADA access; pave interior drive, handicap parking, and sidewalks; install bear-proof trash cans; and establish designated host camper site. This project will significantly increase safety for park guests utilizing the boat ramp, improve the functionality of the boat ramp, address ADA accessibility, and enhance the overall guest experience. Additionally, this project will enhance environmental safety by modernizing the wastewater treatment system.

The restroom will include a well, septic system, lighting and power, mirrors, paper towel and soap dispensers, grab bars, and ADA sidewalks. Facilities management department involvement will include overseeing the construction of an 800+/- sf restroom facility. The Feasibility study was completed in FY 2022. The restroom facility will be located near the existing pedestrian parking lot. As of February 25, 2025, this is the conceptual and prelimeinary design phase. An engineer has not been selected. It is anticipated bidding and construction will start in 2026.
