Public Kickoff Meeting

Crosstown Parkway Extension Project Development and Environment (PD&E) Public Kick-off Meeting - July 10, 2008

On July 10, 2008, the City of Port St. Lucie hosted a Public Kick-off Meeting for the Crosstown Parkway Extension PD&E Study and Environmental Impact Statement. There were 231 recorded attendees at this Public Kick-off Meeting.



  • The primary purposes of the meeting were to provide the public with:
  • An overview of the project;
  • Identify project issues;
  • Provide agencies with a forum to address their concerns and issues; and
  • Facilitate an open line of communication throughout the Project Development process.

The Public Kick-off Meeting began at 6:00 p.m. and ended at 7:30 p.m. The first 30 minutes of the meeting were conducted in an “open house” format to allow the attendees the opportunity to ask project specialists questions in a one-on-one informal format.
Eighteen display boards were provided at the meeting to convey information about the project. The boards were placed on both sides of the room (the same boards on each side) and project managers and specialists addressed comments and concerns directly at each of the 18 project boards.
At 7:00 p.m., a PowerPoint presentation was provided by the City and their consultant, Keith and Schnars. Public Comment forms were provided to the attendees, along with a two page project handout and the project contact information flyer. A court reporter was also present to transcribe all verbal comments.



Each comment, as well as the City’s response, is included in this report.
