Trust For Public Land Awarded Grant

Business

The Trust for Public Land announced it has received a $50,000 grant from Gulf Coast Community Foundation to help extend the Legacy Trail into downtown Sarasota. Funds will be used to support appraisals, boundary surveys, environmental assessments and other project expenses needed to advance the proposed acquisition of approximately eight miles of rail corridor needed for the extension project. Once the acquisition is complete, county officials plan to build a pedestrian and bike path connecting Downtown Sarasota to the existing Legacy Trail.
