The forum is scheduled for this Thursday, March 26, at 6 pm in the black box theater of the Academy at the Lakes School's new art building.

It will include our guest presenters, the Pasco County Public Works team, with an update on the 2026 approved and budgeted Stormwater & Drainage Projects (early steps toward eventually repaving/rehabbing our roadways). Plus tours of the new art building for those who want to check it out.

PASCO COUNTY PUBLIC WORKS UPDATES:

Completed Road Projects include River Rock Road drainage repaired. East Lake Dr. at Shoreside Dr. is currently under construction for piping replacement. Thank you to the residents who provided Pasco County with the necessary access and easements to complete these badly needed replacements of some of our over 45-year-old drainage pipes.

Lake Padgett Drive and Lake Saxon Drive are budgeted and ready to go. The County will share with us where these pipe replacements will be located, how they will affect drainage, and what to expect regarding any easements needed, future access, and projects.

I've been told this Lake Padgett/Lake Saxon Drive project is an all-or-nothing proposition: the county is ready to complete it, but it will need all easements in place, or they may need to abandon the entire project.

See you there!
