Envision Edgewater

Our neighbor to the south Edgewater has some interesting things going on. They have a new planning initiative going on called "Envision Edgewater". This series of workshops that started September 8th are designed to follow the CFSCI (Central Florida Sustainable Communities Initiative). In simple terms, land use, transportation and urban design planning should all be done smarter. So envision Edgwater is having a series of workshops that include regular citizens who are interested in being part of what Edgewater looks like in the future.

There is a community meeting planned tentatively for October 20th in which the results of these workshops will be presented. The links above have some very interesting information on CFSCI and the Edgewater Project.
