St. Johns County issued a construction permit for J. Raymond Construction to build the Cinemark at The Pavilion at Durbin Park at a cost of $10 million.
The 43,803-square-foot theater will be built at 435 Durbin Pavilion Drive.
Cinemark Holdings Inc. said in October it plans to open a 12-screen movie theater at the Pavilion by the fall. Plans show an 85,000-square-foot complex with a 44,000-square-foot movie theater and six restaurant-retail buildings.
JEA issued a service availability letter for the 1,500-seat Cinemark theater planned in Atlantic North at northwest Atlantic Boulevard and Marketplace Drive, west of Kernan Boulevard.
Cinemark Holdings Inc. announced in March it will open the 14-screen movie theater in summer 2020.
The city is reviewing civil plans for the project, which is being developed by Sleiman Enterprises. The theater will be across Marketplace Drive from Belk.
