County Plans 2027 Master Plan for Seafood/Meat Processing at County Farm; Timeline Set
Summary
EDP said a $100,000 grant will fund a County Farm master plan to study seafood and meat-processing options; work is scheduled to start January 2027 with completion by Q4 2027. Legislators suggested considering alternate sites and broader feasibility studies.
EDP said the county secured a $100,000 grant to prepare a master plan for the County Farm that will evaluate seafood and meat processing opportunities, including a potential seafood abattoir or commercial kitchen. "We received a $100,000 grant to create a master plan for the County Farm," Commissioner Lansdale said, adding the project kickoff is planned for January 2027 with completion by December 2027.
Legislators urged the department to consider whether the County Farm site is the best fit and whether broader feasibility work across the county (including EPCAL and eastern county sites with rail access) might yield better locations for fish processing, canning or shared commercial facilities. EDP said the master plan would address use questions, regulatory constraints (USDA and food safety), and building and lease arrangements before any capital construction decisions are made.
Next steps: the department will conduct the master plan under the grant and stakeholders suggested evaluating alternative sites and regional logistics during the study.
