Update from Pasco County Commissioner

I hope you and your family had a wonderful start to summer during June. Please make sure you get out this summer and enjoy all the beautiful activities we have to offer in Pasco County.

During the month of June, Pasco County Commission approved agenda items that will bring up to 5 million square feet of industrial and office uses to our community, located near the Interstate 75 and State Road 52 area. Over the last eight years, we’ve worked hard as a team to bring high paying jobs to improve the quality of life for our citizens and ensure Pasco County is not just a bedroom community for our neighboring counties. I’m thrilled to welcome these jobs to our community in the near future.

At our June 21st Commission meeting, I was honored to sponsor a resolution recognizing the GFWC Lutz Land O’ Lakes Woman’s Club. Since being founded 62 years ago, the club has donated over one million volunteer hours and raised almost three million dollars in service to our community.

Along with Independence Day, this month brings one of my favorite family activities, scalloping! Pasco County’s 2022 scallop season will be from July 15th through July 24th. Not only is scalloping fun, it is great for economic development and tourism on the west side of Pasco. You can learn more about scallop season, including recipes, on Florida’s Sports Coast website at FlSportsCoast.com.

As the summer continues, please make sure you check out all the resources Pasco County has to offer! New River Library near Avalon Park Wesley Chapel is newly renovated, Wesley Chapel District Park has a new gymnasium, an inclusive playground, and much more.

Please check out Pasco County’s website at MyPasco.net for all the latest information. I hope you and your family have a wonderful and safe July. Happy Independence Day!
