Avalon Projects

Avalon Projects dates and information provided are tentative and subject to change and that will be updating them whenever we receive more current information.

This information was collected on: March 11th, so date ranges are based from that date.

The new Founder's Square park - The site plan has been approved by the county and is ready to submit for building permits.  Construction should begin in 60 to 90 days and should take about four months to complete.  The goal is to have it completed prior to the fall event schedule which begins in October  '07.

 
The CVS - CVS has full approvals and we are awaiting their current schedule.
 
The Tech School/TCHS Relief Center - The Tech School is scheduled to be completed for the Fall '07 school year.
 
The Live/Work units & tenants - The Live Work units recently received preliminary subdivision plan approval and can now be submitted to the building department for permits.  The units should go to contract with individual businesses in mid April.  At that time there will be a clearer idea of the tenants.  Construction will not begin until 10 of the 11 units are under contract although currently all 11 are reserved.  If contracts are acquired in April, construction should start in June with a completion schedule of February '08.
 
The unopened or unoccupied spaces in Town Center 2 - Unoccupied spaces are still available for lease.  Briantos recently received permits and could possibly be ready and 90-120 days.  The YMCA general opening is on April 1st, founder opening was Thursday, March 29th.
 
The status/timeline for Town Center 3 - Town Center 3 has no timeline but is rather a five to seven year plan to build out of the remainder of Town Center based on market demands.  Town Center 3 is a long-term project.
 
The  Alafaya Extension & Widening - No new information on the extension or widening at this time.
 
Avalon Church - Avalon Church is waiting to get data plat recorded, at which time they will be able to pull building permits.  The best guess for completion is January '08 although the church may have a more accurate schedule.
 
The Florida Hospital Medical Rehabilitation Facilities - The rehab facility has approval from DRC per a re-submittal to address comments.  It is approximately 30 days from getting full site plan approval plus 90 days for building permits.  Construction should start August 1, 2007, with a 10 month construction schedule.
 
The Fairwinds Bank, Ace Hardware & other businesses in the works - Fairwinds is attempting to get building permits but require a plat first which is about 30 days out.  The construction should take about 120 days.  The best guess for completion is Fall '07.  Negotiations are still ongoing with Ace Hardware but there is no agreement at this time.  Avalon Shoppes and Offices should start construction in the next 120-180 days.

Avalon Traffic Concerns (Discussions in Q&A Postings)

  • Traffic speed and volume in alleys
  • Traffic around Avalon Elementary
  • Need for more traffic control signs and speed signs throughout the villages
  • Use of off the road vehicles and powered scooters on both our walkways and roads, especially by young and unlicensed drivers.
