The CRA approved spending about $904,000 more on the Phase IV utility undergrounding project for the new Surf Road โ€” but the developer reimburses it all. One member worried the CRA bears construction risk without developer indemnification.

The long-running Harrison Street makeover is nearly done โ€” the final block phase started July 6 and should wrap mid-September, with resurfacing and crosswalks by late October. A new parklet outside Hoshi restaurant shows the pedestrian-friendly direction.

After more than a decade and roughly $350,000 spent, FDOT finally agreed in May 2025 to lower speed limits so shade trees can be planted at the curb edge along US-1. The CRA is chipping in $76,425 toward design, with a concept design expected in the fall and concerns raised that only palms might be feasible.

Residents want the Carolina Street traffic light put on hold until long-promised mid-block crosswalk concepts arrive โ€” six months past the promised date. The CRA says the signal is proceeding and an engineering study of mid-block crossings has begun.
