The Panama City Beach Community Redevelopment Agency announces a public meeting to which all persons are invited.

DATE AND TIME: February 18, 2014, 5:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m., CST

PLACE: Panama City Beach City Hall, 110 South Arnold Road, Panama City Beach, Florida

GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The Panama City Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) invites you to attend a public information meeting concerning proposed improvements to State Road (S.R.) 79 (Arnold Road) and S.R. 30 (Front Beach Road) in Bay County.

The project will include improvements to S.R. 79 from Front Beach Road to just north of the Panama City Beach Pkwy. (S.R. 30A/U.S. 98) intersection for a length of 0.66 miles. The project will include improvements to Front Beach Road (SR 30) from just west of S.R. 79 to Lullwater Lake for a distance of 0.64 miles. Improvements to Panama City Beach Pkwy. (S.R. 30A/U.S. 98) will include the addition of another left turn lane in each direction at the S.R. 79 intersection. The S.R. 79 reconstruction will transform the existing two-lane facility into a four-lane divided urban roadway with two through-lanes in each direction, bicycle lanes, a raised median with turn lanes, and sidewalks on each side. Front Beach Road will be widened based on a typical section that includes one through-lane and one exclusive Transit/Bicycle lane in each direction, separated by a paved or raised median. Sidewalk will be provided in each direction on Front Beach Road. The project also includes improvements to the signalized intersections for S.R. 79/Panama City Beach Pkwy. and S.R. 79/Front Beach Road. Appropriate landscaping will be constructed along both S.R. 79 and Front Beach Road. It will be necessary to acquire right-of-way to accommodate proposed improvements along the corridor, including stormwater treatment facilities, turn lanes and driveways. Right-of-way acquisition and construction dates have not yet been determined.

There will be no formal presentation. Graphics on aerials and other visual aids will be available to review at the meeting and CRA representatives will be available to explain proposed improvements and answer questions.
