Public Comment Period Open: Draft Public Participation Plan for HRTPO

Public Comment Period Open: Draft Public Participation Plan for HRTPO

The Heartland Regional Transportation Planning Organization (HRTPO) is seeking comments from the public on the Draft Public Participation Plan. The plan provides guidelines used by the HRTPO to inform and gather input from residents, communities, and interest groups throughout the six counties in order to expand the information available for planning.

The plan:

  • Outlines organizational structure and work products
  • Describes HRTPO public communication tools
  • Prescribes public comment periods
  • Offers opportunities for public involvement

This is an update to the Public Participation Plan adopted by the HRTPO in November 2018.

The comment period for the Draft Public Participation Plan begins on January 27, 2023, and comments will be accepted through March 13, 2023. After the comment period closes and all input has been considered, the draft plan will be presented for final adoption to the HRTPO Board at their meeting on March 15, 2023. 

Printed copies are available upon request.  Anyone interested in submitting a comment may do so by contacting Transportation Director, Marybeth Soderstrom, by email at msoderstrom@cfrpc.org, mail to 555 East Church Street, Bartow, FL 33830, or call (863) 534-7130 x 134.
