Transportation Task Force Subcommittee Looks at Transportation PrioritiesA Pinellas County Transportation Task Force subcommittee has scheduled a workshop for Monday, August 30, from 8:30 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. at the EpiCenter Collaborative Lab (13805 58th St. N., Largo.) Subcommittee members will look at present and future transportation projects in upper, mid-upper, mid-south and south Pinellas County and determine priorities. Subcommittee members will then compare each area's report to determine countywide priorities. Findings will be presented to the full Transportation Task Force at its next regularly scheduled meeting on September 20th. The Transportation Task Force is focusing on ways to capitalize on transportation investments and opportunities. New and redeveloped transit-friendly corridors will strengthen the local economy, create jobs, and improve mobility, making Pinellas County a more livable community. To that end, members are working with representatives from area planning and transit agencies to formulate practical and fiscally sound transportation recommendations. The task force is chaired by Pinellas County Commission Chair Karen Williams Seel. The Transportation Task Force meets the third Monday of every month through December, from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m., at the Tampa Bay Regional Planning Council (4000 Gateway Centre Blvd., Pinellas Park.)
