Doctors Court Extension to Oviedo Boulevard

Summary

The city wants to build a 1,500-foot connector road through wetlands between Doctors Court and Oviedo Boulevard, near Jackson Heights Middle School. It would cut emergency response times and give families a second way in and out of the neighborhood — but it costs about $2.8 million plus right-of-way from four parcels, and it eats into wetlands requiring $130,000 in mitigation.

Impact analysis

💰Financial impact

About $2.8 million to build (in today's dollars), with $300,000 already budgeted for design from the sales tax fund; right-of-way costs are still unknown.

✅Who benefits

Residents of the Doctors Drive/Court neighborhood, students and parents at Jackson Heights Middle School, and fire/rescue crews needing a second access route.

⚠️Who could be affected

Owners of the four affected parcels — mostly undeveloped wetland — could face right-of-way acquisition, and wetland/floodplain areas take a permanent hit.
