ST. PETERSBURG — On a budget, the City Council will have to decide which parts of St. Petersburg’s coastline are worth including in long-term plans.
Last month, the city contracted with AECOM, a Los Angeles-based global consulting firm that worked on Vision 20/20 to develop the city’s land use regulations, to devise a similar plan for the city’s waterfront.
AECOM principal Peter Sechler detailed for council members the creation of a long-term master plan for the city’s waterfront. The plan would identify the community’s needs, rally support and create a strategy for the coastline stretching from the Old Southeast neighborhood to Snell Isle to the tune of $475,000.
