Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday announced a $2.7 million grant for the city of Fort Pierce to improve infrastructure.Speaking at 2nd Street Bistro, DeSantis said the money comes from Florida's Job Growth Grant Fund and will be used to redevelop the 8-acre Kings Landing site, just north of the downtown area."These public infrastructure improvements will help this area attract new businesses, including restaurants, retail stores, and even a full-service hotel," DeSantis said.Back in February, city commissioners approved the $140 million development that will feature a Marriott hotel, several restaurants and retail stores, plus an additional 114 residences.
