The Lacoochee-Trilby neighborhood has been identified by the Pasco County Board of County Commissioners as a target area, and has been selected by HUD/EPA as a Designated Signature Community. During the course of four years, there has been a planning phase which is based on public involvement, with the intent of transforming the Lacoochee-Trilby neighborhood, and to discuss the wishes and goals of the community members on how they wanted the transformation to take place. The County staff has worked with a diverse group of participants including residents, community stakeholders, civic organizations, business owners, elected officials, and state and federal government representatives to create a realistic plan reflective of the community and stakeholder interests and aspirations.
