GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE CONSIDERED: The public kickoff meeting is regarding a Cumulative Effects Evaluation (CEE) study conducted in association with the proposed Interstate 75 interchange at Everglades Boulevard in Collier County.

A short presentation describing the study and its purpose will begin at approximately 6:00 p.m. The remainder of the meeting is held in an informal, open house format. Individuals may attend at any time, from 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m., to review study displays and to hold one-on-one conversations with study team members.
