Help Map a Future Vision for Islamorada During Upcoming Interactive Meetings
“… Over the past 25 years, Islamorada has experienced controlled growth, and now the village is looking to guide future redevelopment thoughtfully. The village has partnered with a team of planning experts, including Able City East (planning and design consultants), Street Plans (mobility consultant), Ninigret Partners (economic consultants), and the Horsley Witten Group (sustainability and wastewater specialists).
The process will tackle questions such as:
How can Islamorada encourage arts, culture, local small businesses, new amenities and affordable living, while preserving the ecosystem?
How can new development along U.S. 1 complement existing businesses while protecting surrounding neighborhoods?
How can new housing types address the needs of the changing demographic, including workforce housing, amid rising property and construction costs?
Can architectural standards improve the look of U.S. 1 and better reflect Islamorada’s unique character?
How can the village make certain areas more walkable and pedestrian-friendly?…”
