The Florida Department of Corrections has not filed a formal request but is considering a site on NE 39th Ave. for a state prison and possibly a mental health facility for female inmates.
County commissioners immediately slammed the idea. "Plan East Gainesville" has been set in motion for economic development on Gainesville's eastside. Eastside is becoming a popular and affordable area for homebuyers due to easy access to UF, Shands and the VA. What the DOC has in mind would surely be a detriment to East Gainesville's future.
