Residents of Lake County enjoy a diversity of communities within a stone’s throw
from home. From the small-town charm found along historic Main Street communities,
to the lakes and rolling hills offering elite athletes prime training opportunities, to the
designated wilderness areas providing camping and kayaking adventures, you can truly
appreciate the county’s slogan “Real Florida. Real Close.”
To protect and promote these special places, 1000 Friends is pleased to be part of the
East Central Florida Regional Planning Council’s Joint Planning Area project approved
by Lake County earlier this summer. 1000 Friends will host our next 2070 workshop in
Lake County on December 6 to hear residents’ specific challenges and opportunities
for the future of the area. Working with the planning council, we will share our
workshop findings and contribute toward a common conservation strategy that will
help the 14 municipalities coordinate growth and development within the county. Your
input as concerned citizens, agricultural producers, business leaders, and community
stakeholders is needed to help us identify conservation corridors while also allowing
Lake County’s economy to flourish. Please join us Tuesday evening, December 6th,
from 6:00 – 7:30 p.m. at the Lake County UF/IFAS Extension Auditorium 1951
Woodlea Rd, Tavares, FL 32778.
