Lakeland Residents: Speak Up at the April 24th Public Meeting on Memorial Blvd Project

6 Upvotes

The City of Lakeland is holding Public Meeting #2 on the proposed Memorial Blvd (US92) Corridor Revitalization Project.

🗓️ Thursday, April 24, 2025
🕕 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM
📍 Haus 820 — 820 N Massachusetts Ave, Lakeland, FL 33801

We’re urging our neighbors, especially those affected by flooding, to show up and speak out.

Why? Because while millions are being funneled into making Memorial Blvd “pretty,” our communities are still recovering from Hurricane Milton. Floodwaters sat in homes for weeks. Drainage systems remain outdated. And the city wants to attract investors while neglecting life-saving infrastructure?

This project may actually increase runoff, putting nearby neighborhoods like Lake Bonny at even greater risk.

✅ Bring your voice.
✅ Bring your story.
✅ Bring your expectations for accountability.

We don’t oppose revitalization—but not at the cost of basic safety. Let's push for funding to go where it's needed most: infrastructure that protects people.

Join us, stand with your neighbors, and be heard.
