Purpose: Hillsborough County, in coordination with Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) District Seven, is conducting a Project Development and Environment (PD&E) study along Van Dyke Road from Gunn Highway to east of Whirley Road in Hillsborough County, a distance of approximately 3.47 miles. The study is being conducted to evaluate alternative roadway improvements along the corridor and the project mitigation site, the Cee Bee Project Mitigation Site, located west of the project corridor. This public hearing is being offered in-person, with an option to attend virtually, to give interested persons an opportunity to express their views concerning the location, conceptual design, and social, economic, and environmental effects of the proposed improvements. This hearing also serves as an opportunity for public comment on the Section 4(f) de minimis impacts to Lake Park. Persons who choose to attend the virtual hearing session must do so through a computer, tablet, or smartphone via Webex (a call-in number will not be available). Virtual attendees must register online at the project website: https://publicinput.com/vandykestudy. The hearing begins with an open house at 5:30 p.m. and follows with a formal presentation and public comment period at 6:30 p.m. Following the formal presentation, the informal open house will resume until 7:30 p.m. A court reporter will be available to receive comments in a one-on-one setting at the in-person session. Persons wishing to submit statements or other exhibits, in place of or in addition to oral statements, may do so at the hearing or by sending them to Amanda Sotomayor, P.E., Project Manager, Hillsborough County, 601 E. Kennedy Blvd, Tampa, FL 33602 or provide them on the “Send us your comments” page on the project website at https://publicinput.com/vandykestudy.
