Developer Rimrock Devlin and Jacksonville University are advancing work toward building a medical school north of the JU Arlington riverfront campus by submitting civil engineering plans to the city and acquiring a service availability determination from JEA.
Civil engineer Taylor & White Inc. submitted plans to the city Oct. 16 for the Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine, which announced a partnership with JU on Nov. 30, 2022, to establish a four-year medical school in Northeast Florida that will become LECOM at Jacksonville University.
The school is expected to begin classes in fall 2026.
