ST. JOHNS COUNTY, Fla. – St. Johns County Administrator Joy Andrews told the Board of County Commissioners on Tuesday that the county completed 61 capital improvement projects in 2025 and has 59 additional projects scheduled to begin construction or reach final completion in 2026, representing more than $820 million in infrastructure investment.
The projects cover public facilities, public safety, parks and libraries, roadway improvements, utilities, land acquisition, coastal resiliency and technology. County officials said the work advances all six priorities in the county’s strategic plan: infrastructure, organizational excellence, community trust, community well‑being, economic prosperity and enhanced conservation.

“Today’s presentation is a snapshot of the scale, complexity and momentum of infrastructure delivery in St. Johns County,” Andrews said. She thanked the board for its “vision and leadership” and said the projects will benefit current residents and future generations.
Andrews highlighted the role of the county’s Infrastructure Delivery Team and the Capital Improvement Program oversight structure in keeping projects within approved scope and budget, prioritizing investments with data‑driven modeling and maintaining transparency and accountability through planning and delivery.
She said the county’s infrastructure strategy uses a diversified funding approach — including grants, state and federal appropriations, developer contributions, impact fees and debt proceeds — to address growth demands while reducing reliance on property taxes.
County leaders also recognized the extensive coordination required among county departments, constitutional offices and external partners to deliver large‑scale projects that support public safety, mobility, water resources, environmental stewardship and quality of life.
The Office of Public Affairs produced a video that highlights the full list of 2025–2026 projects, and the full Critical Infrastructure Update presentation is available on the county website. To learn more about St. Johns County capital improvement projects, visit www.sjcfl.us/featured-projects
