FORT MEADE - Phosphate company Mosaic has announced plans to build a luxury resort on some 16,000 acres of reclaimed mine land west of Fort Meade in Polk County, according to The Ledger, a Lakeland newspaper.
The $50 million to $80 million project could open as early as 2013, company officials told the newspaper. The proposed resort site is bounded by the Polk-Hardee county line on the south, Fort Green Road to the West, SR 630 West along most of the northern perimeter and District Line Road along most of the east.
The project still needs approval from state and county officials. Mosaic Co. owns nearly 200,000 acres of reclaimed phosphate land in the area.
