Citywide Waterfront Connectivity Report
Summary
The city's new report finds 2.75 miles of waterfront walkway built since 2009, with another mile in the pipeline — but 12% of the remaining gaps sit on city-owned land. The board endorsed the study so it can be used to chase grants and press the City Commission for action.
