The public is invited to attend upcoming meetings to discuss alternatives relating to the planned Orange Belt Trail, which will span roughly 37 miles through Pasco County, from Trinity to Trilby.
The meetings will provide an update on the study, which includes changes based on input received at previous workshops, according to a Pasco County news release.
The project team will present potential alignments, along with maps of the alternative routes.
Team members also will present an evaluation and solicit feedback on the alternatives.
Both meetings will cover the same information.
Here are the meeting dates and places:
- Aug. 15, from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., at the GFWC Dade City Woman’s Club, 37922 Palm Ave., in Dade City
- Aug. 16, from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., at the Starkey Ranch Theatre Library Cultural Center, 12118 Lake Blanche Drive, in Odessa.
The meetings are held open-house style, so participants can come and go.
A brief formal presentation will be given each evening at 6 p.m., and staff will be available to answer questions.
Input collected at the sessions will help Pasco County determine which alternatives will move forward through the study.
A recommended alignment is expected to be presented to the Pasco Board of County Commissioners in mid-2024.
