The Latest from your District 5 Commissioner
Welcome to Commissioner Cathy Townsend’s blog page. I created this forum as a place where residents of District 5 and all of St. Lucie County can keep track of what my office is doing to improve our wonderful community.
Here you’ll find a calendar of events with different meetings and social events that I plan to host and attend, as well as news releases related to work that is being done in my district.
As one of your voices on the St. Lucie County Board of County Commissioners, I want to create an open dialogue with our residents. I’d love the opportunity to come and talk with your homeowners’ association or civic group. Just contact my Executive Aide Colleen Hamilton to set something up: 772-462-1408 or email hamiltonc@stlucieco.org.
Harbour Pointe Park To Close March 23 for Renovations
ST. LUCIE COUNTY – Harbour Pointe Park will be closed to the public starting Monday, March 23, as St. Lucie County’s Port, Inlet and Beaches Department begins construction of a new entrance/roadway into the park.
The closure is necessary as St. Lucie County prepares for a new entrance into the 26-acre waterfront park. The new entrance corridor, located north of the existing entrance (at the end of N. 2nd St.), will streamline the traffic flow and provide a more welcoming access point for residents and visitors as St. Lucie County begins to develop this primitive park.
The entire grounds of Harbour Pointe Park will be closed during this renovation project. A specific reopening date will be announced as construction milestones are completed.
“While we realize this closure is an inconvenience, the new entrance is a vital upgrade that will significantly improve the arrival experience and safety for years to come,“ said St. Lucie County Port, Inlet and Beaches Director Joshua Revord. “We appreciate the public’s patience as we work to make these necessary improvements and prepare this primitive park for future developments, including a new regional boat ramp and other amenities.”
