PLACE: American Beach Community Center, 1600 Julia Street, American Beach, FL 32034
GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: This workshop is being held to afford interested persons the opportunity to express their views concerning the location, conceptual design, social, economic and environmental effects of Financial Project ID: 427430-1, otherwise known as the SR A1A/Amelia Island Multi-Use Trail. Join us on September 22, 2011, to get the latest information on the SR A1A/Amelia Island Multi-Use Trail project. The Florida Department of Transportation proposes to construct a 5.9 mile Multi-Use Trail along SR-A1A on Amelia Island. The trail will begin at the southern tip of the island and end at Peter’s Point Park north of the Ritz-Carlton development. The Multi-Use Trail will be a 10' foot wide asphalt trail with 2' foot shoulders. The project design minimizes tree impacts. The design includes drainage structure modifications, utility coordination and wetland permitting. The workshop will be an open house format from 4:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. Project team members will be on hand to discuss the construction plans and answer any questions you may have. Then at 6:30 p.m., we will open the floor for
comments. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, religion, sex, age, national origin, disability or family status.
