Abstract

The Marianna Multi-Sport Complex is a proposed resilient community facility located at 3625 Caverns Road in Marianna, Florida. The project is designed to serve as both a daily-use recreational hub and a FEMA P-361–compliant emergency storm shelter for Jackson County. The development includes a central multi-sport building housing a regulation basketball court and hardened storm shelter, along with outdoor recreational amenities such as tennis courts, pickleball courts, a pavilion, expanded parking, and multi-use pedestrian paths. The site will be accessed from Caverns Road (S.R. 166) with improvements to FCI Road to enhance traffic flow, safety, and ADA accessibility.
The existing site consists of undeveloped land with gentle topographic variation and favorable subsurface conditions for shallow foundations, supported by geotechnical investigation. Stormwater management will be handled through a centralized stormwater pond designed in accordance with NWFWMD and FDEP requirements, incorporating water quality treatment and potential irrigation reuse. Additional infrastructure improvements include a new sewer lift station, utility extensions, and pedestrian connectivity enhancements throughout the complex.
The project emphasizes structural resilience, community safety, and sustainable site development while addressing lessons learned from Hurricane Michael, during which schools were used as emergency shelters. By providing a dedicated, code-compliant shelter, the Marianna Multi-Sport Complex improves emergency preparedness while supporting recreation, economic growth, and regional sports tourism. The conceptual design assumes a total project budget of approximately $25 million and establishes a foundation for future detailed design, permitting, and funding efforts.
