Gore Development Limited will reportedly be developing 828 homes in Trelawny, one of the biggest residential developments ever to be rolled out in the parish. The Trelawny Parish Council is said to be in the process of reviewing the plans at this time, and seems likely to sign off on it soon.
Specifically 828 two-bedroom detached homes on separate residential lots is what is proposed, on 72.4 hectares, or 178.90 acres, of land at Florence Hall in Trelawny. The lot sizes will be a minimum of 420.5 square metres (4,500 square feet). In terms of location, it is south of and bordered by the North Coast Highway, directly across from Oyster Bay and within close proximity of Falmouth. Access to the property is via an entrance on the east of the Daniel Town road, just a few metres from the entrance to the state-owned Trelawny Multi-purpose Stadium, located west of the property.
Undoubtedly the proposed development aims to satisfy the growing housing demand along the north coast stretch from Montego Bay in St. James, to Duncans in Trelawny. It will reportedly be done in two major phases, with the homes to be complemented by large, medium and small neighbourhood parks, cave reservations, and a football field. It will also include a site for a pre-school facility.
