From County Road 452 to Golden Gem Drive
The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) will hold a public hearing for the design to resurface State Road (S.R.) 19 from County Road (C.R.) 452 to Golden Gem Drive. The purpose of the project is to resurface the roadway in the southbound direction only. Improvements also include pedestrian, bicycle, and safety improvements along both sides of the road. The addition of sidewalk and access management improvements (median changes) are also included throughout the project limits. Intersection lighting is proposed at C.R. 452 and C.R. 44. Additionally, roadway lighting is proposed from south of C.R. 452 to Pine Meadows Golf Course.
The public hearing will be Tuesday, September 10, 2019, at the Bay Street Baptist Church, 37181 State Road 19 N, Umatilla, FL 32784. The hearing will begin as an open house at 5:30 p.m. A formal presentation will begin at 6 p.m., followed by a public comment period. A court reporter will prepare a verbatim transcript of the proceedings. In the event the public hearing cannot be held on September 10, due to severe weather, it will be held on the alternate date of Tuesday, October 1, 2019, at the same time and place.
