The City of Tavares is planning improvements along Highways 19, 561, and 448. The focus is on supporting existing businesses and preventing residential sprawl, with commercial development being a priority.

Signalization at 19/561 is designed and being installed, and the intersection at Dunkin Donuts has been completed. A utility relocation master plan is underway to allow for widening Highway 19 to four lanes down to the bridge. Additionally, a new Fairground master plan at 448 is being coordinated with the County. This project is currently in the planning and review stages. Work will likely involve site clearing and grading, underground utility relocation, signalization and intersection improvements, road widening, and new commercial construction.

4. Continue proceeding with implementation of the Tavares to Mount Dora Rails to
The City of Tavares is continuing to move forward with the Tavares to Mount Dora Rails to Trails Project. This project involves the implementation of a trail system along a former railroad corridor. An agreement to purchase the railroad corridor within two years has been accomplished, and a grant has been submitted, though the project is still subject to funding and grant approvals. The next steps will likely involve detailed planning, design, and securing necessary permits before any construction can begin. This early stage presents an opportunity for local contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the project. Businesses specializing in site preparation, grading, paving, landscaping, and potentially utility work could find future opportunities. Reaching out now, before final plans and bids are established, allows businesses to understand the project's scope and position themselves for potential work as funding and approvals are secured.

5. Continue to build Tavares based on its Historic Foundation. Always being done
The City of Tavares is continuing its focus on building the city based on its historic foundation. This initiative is supported by the Research Center and History Museum, and includes private businesses undertaking renovations of historic structures. Recent efforts have involved permits for historic church renovations, an attorney's building, an old gas station renovation, and the Major St. Clair Abrams home. These projects involve owners adapting historic buildings for modern use, which has presented preservation challenges. The city is currently in the planning and review phase for these types of historic preservation and adaptive reuse projects. Work may involve site preparation, structural repairs, utility upgrades, interior and exterior finishes, and landscaping, all while adhering to historic preservation guidelines. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to engage early to understand the scope and requirements of these ongoing and future historic renovation projects. Early involvement can provide an advantage as site plans, bids, and permits are developed.
