Keep Winter Park Beautiful & Sustainable Regular Meeting · 2026-04-21 · agenda_item

The City of Winter Park is planning a "Run for the Trees & Mother Earth Day Celebration" event on May 9, 2026, at Ward Park. This event is part of ongoing sustainability initiatives. The "Martin Luther King Jr. Learning Garden" ribbon cutting is scheduled for April 14, 2026, with final touches including fence installation and additional landscaping. The "Green Business Recognition Program" is also expanding, with future plans for utility billing inserts and features in Winter Park Magazine, alongside potential quarterly green business challenges and sustainability initiative brainstorming. These planned events and program expansions suggest opportunities for local businesses involved in landscaping, event services, and sustainability-focused marketing. Engaging early with city staff or program organizers could provide insight into specific needs and potential involvement as these initiatives move forward.
