[1255 Wells Ave.] The Tavares City Council approved the Golden Triangle Regional Park (East and West Campus) Conceptual Plan Workshop and Review presentation. The project involves the design, engineering, and build-out of the Golden Triangle Regional Park system, comprising both East and West Campuses. The presentation included conceptual design plans based on community feedback. Key discussions involved the potential inclusion of a gymnasium, relocation of mobile offices, retention of senior ball fields, installation of artificial turf, and the use of foul-ball netting. The next steps include a third community engagement meeting, phasing, and budgeting. Public comment included support for the designs with concerns about parking and stormwater management, and appreciation for the collaborative efforts. The Council also considered a reduction in code enforcement liens for a property at 1255 Wells Ave. The reduction to $40,000 was approved, conditioned on the property being sold exclusively to SurePath Properties and the transaction closing within 120 days. The property owner at the time of violations resided in an assisted living facility.
