Fort Pierce Redevelopment Agency Invites the Community to Participate in Western Peninsula Charrette Workshop

FORT PIERCE, FL – The Treasure Coast Regional Planning Council, in partnership with the Fort Pierce Redevelopment Agency (FPRA), invites the community to participate in a public workshop to kick off the Western Peninsula Charrette on Saturday, October 5, 2024, at the 500 Orange Event Center starting at 10 AM.

This important workshop marks the beginning of a five-day charrette process aimed at creating an updated vision for the Island Wastewater Treatment Plant and the surrounding area. With plans underway for the plant's relocation, the charrette is a unique opportunity to envision and design waterfront assets that align with community aspirations for both the public properties north and south of Seaway Drive and the adjacent private property.

During this workshop and in the following days, participants will engage in collaborative discussions and activities designed to gather input, explore ideas, and contribute to a community-driven plan.
