FM 435471-1: South Sumter Connector Trail PD&E Study - Project Advisory Group Meeting The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), District Five, is holding a Project Advisory Group (PAG) meeting to discuss the status of the South Sumter Connector Trail PD&E Study. The purpose of this project is to develop a multi-use trail that closes the approximately 22-mile gap in the Coast to Coast Trail network between the Good Neighbor Trail and the Van Fleet Trail. This meeting will focus on a review of the potential options being considered; the next step after the PAG will be to hold a public meeting and then select a recommended multi-use trail option. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, religion, disability or family status. Persons wishing to express their concerns relative to FDOT compliance with Title VI may do so by contacting Jennifer Smith, FDOT District Five Title VI Coordinator at jennifer.smith2@dot.state.fl.us. The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried out by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) pursuant to 23 U.S.C. §327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 14, 2016, and executed by the Federal Highway Administration and FDOT.
