SUNCOAST (SNN TV) – The Truth for Public Land is funding a contest for 336-mile network of paths along our coast. The paths will one day connect Collier, Lee, Charlotte, Sarasota, Manatee, Pinellas, and Hillsborough Counties.
The Herald-Tribune reports if you create a logo and forge an identity for the trail and win, you get $5,000 dollars. The local Legacy Trail connects North Port and Sarasota and will become part of the Florida Gulf Coast Trail.
Last month, the Sarasota/Manatee Metropolitan Planning organization approved a 12-foot wide trails to connect Bobby Jones Golf Club to Nathan Benderson Park via an I-75 overpass to Lakewood Ranch, as well as a trail connecting 75th Street West to U.S. 41 Business in downtown Bradenton.
