Briefing
Town Center CRA Advisory Committee Workshop — February 18, 2026
The Town Center Community Redevelopment Agency Advisory Committee met in workshop format to receive project and funding updates. Staff reported demolition of the former Chick‑fil‑A building is required for a property sale; a proposed Chase Bank at 751 Harbor Boulevard may no longer need a parking variance following a City Council ordinance. The Town Center CRA account showed $1,636,153 with $1,000,000 already committed to the multi‑use linear trail, which is in easement acquisition with about 5–6 easements remaining; grant funding (including Sunshine Trail) is being pursued. Committee members were asked to review the Work Plan and CRA Master Plan and return with priority project recommendations at the next meeting (March 18, 2026). Staff will confirm TIF inclusion in the funding summary and follow up on traffic signal activation signage with the City Engineer. The committee also discussed exploring a Town Center CRA style guide described as "Old Florida"/Florida vernacular for future development.
