According to the Jacksonville Daily Record, a serious new development is coming to St. John’s County. 

Reportedly, three months after presenting initial plans for 46,000 square feet of improvements, including a rum distillery, bakery and restaurant, the makers of Madi Rum will return to the St. Johns County Development Review Committee with project updates Nov. 6.

“The county is requesting Madi Rum’s presentation include a cultural resources assessment, paving and drainage plans and fire flow and pump station reports,” the report states.
