In April 2021, the property at the corner of Heathwood Drive and San Marco Road was rezoned for the NCH Urgent Care and office facility to allow for on-island assisted living and memory care. As part of the rezone, 1.87 acres of open space were required. This open space was deeded to the City to be used as a public park for our residents to enjoy. The park will be located in Tract C along the Castaways Canal with entrances from S. Heathwood Drive and San Marco Road. The site plan and park design are attached. The City is hosting a naming contest to hear from Marco Island residents on naming options for the new park. To submit a name, residents should visit the City website and click on the “NamethePark” link under “Your Community” or use this link: Name the new park! | Marco Island FL (cityofmarcoisland.com)
Public involvement is essential in considering naming of public facilities and public land, therefore, citizen recommendations for this new park are welcome. Names must be tasteful and non-controversial. The City Council will have the final authority to name the park.
Marco Island residents must submit the online form no later than 4:00PMon Thursday, October 3, 2024. The Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee will review the submissions on October 15th and forward their recommendations to the City Council on November 4th.
