Revised concept of Pacetti Bay Park (St. Johns County)

Back in April 2025, St. Johns County hosted a community meeting with Parks and Recreation and Public Works staff to receive feedback from residents on plans for the park.

“We’re excited to see this park come to life after so many years in the making,” said Jamie Baccari, the Assistant Director of St. Johns County Parks and Recreation. “We look forward to the community enjoying its new playground, dog park, and walking path.”

The county awarded the $1,155,394 contact to K&G Construction Co., Inc. No completion date has been announced.
