To take advantage of the Everglades, the city plans to research options and develop a long-range strategy to provide our residents and visitors multiple points of interest. In the coming year, staff will assess options for connectivity, partner with key stakeholders, and present a conceptual plan. Part of the long-term Everglades Enhancement Strategy, the Everglades Loop will connect the existing Everglades Conservation Levee Greenway with a multi-use path on the west side of the city. Amenities such as restrooms, shade structures, and bike stations will be incorporated to encourage various forms of exercise along the Everglades Loop.
Staff is exploring the possibility of attendance at the Florida Greenways and Trails Council Meeting in July. The dedication of easement for the sidewalk expansion along Sample Road from the Sentry Storage developers received Commission approval at the June 17, 2026 Commission Meeting. The City was awarded an $800,000 Community Project Funding grant for the project. Staff also received direction to utilize existing funds for installation of a temporary bathroom at the Atlantic Trailhead. Staff is in the process of communicating with the County on next steps.
