AdventHealth has recently filed plans with Osceola County to build a new medical campus across from Liberty High School. AdventHealth’s application includes rezoning for four parcels on Pleasant Hill Rd. The proposal includes an 11,565 square-foot free standing Emergency Department and a fourstory, 4,800 square foot medical/dental office. Plans also include an outpatient surgery center, a helipad and rehabilitation center.

Plans have also been filed for a self-storage facility next to Poinciana High School. Island Estate Group owns the 10-acre parcel at the corner of Poinciana and Octavia Boulevard, just north of the high school. The self-storage facility will occupy 1.9 acres, and the remaining eight acres are slated to be an apartment complex of approximately 250 units in a 3 or 4-story building.

This boom in growth will bring long needed retail options, a chain sit-down restaurant and job opportunities within the community.
