Date:	12/12/2022
Department:	Planning

Background:
The SR 200/AIA Corridor Master Plan is the result of a two-year intensive planning effort that included an in-depth analysis of history, culture, growth trends, land uses, economic development, visual quality, and environmental impacts along the SR 200 corridor. The plan was prepared in consultation with the Community Services Group, a division of GAI Consultants. The purpose and intent of the plan was to craft a vision for the corridor as a multi-functional, safe, and sustainable community in which people can live, work, play and stay. The concepts in the SR200/A1A Corridor Master Plan emerged with the support of Nassau County residents, property owners, business operators, and county officials. The plan charts a path toward the future that is livable, sustainable, and economically vital, and is guided by five planning priorities: Nurture Nature Maintain, enhance, and extend the natural environment by creating opportunities for residents to access and enjoy Florida’s unique natural areas. Grow Sustainably Help stage vibrant shopping center and neighborhood growth through development that creates places for people, supports local businesses and generates additional jobs, encourages an active lifestyle, and comprises a mix of housing options. Connect Communities Improve linkages between neighborhoods, shopping centers, and amenities through a network of slow, safe, and livable primary and secondary streets, trails, bike paths, and pedestrian infrastructure. Catalyze Culture Build on heritage while establishing new cultural assets that celebrate community creativity and identity in the public realm. Future Proof Prepare for a future by looking ahead to build a resilient community in the face of growing climate concern and technological advancements. The plan provides development and redevelopment prototypes for key areas along the corridor, and provides a blueprint for plan implementation through upcoming comprehensive plan policies and land development code standards. The plan was adopted by resolution on December 13, 2021, Resolution No.2021-214. Per Resolution No.2021-214, within 365 days an update shall be provided to the Board regarding amendments to the Comprehensive Plan and the Land Development Code deemed necessary for the implementation of the State Road 200/A1A Master Plan.
