HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY, FL — Hillsborough County will host four community meetings and an online engagement option for residents to learn about county greenways, which include paved and unpaved trails, natural corridors and recreational waterways.

During the meetings, residents will be able to provide feedback to the county on the current use of greenways, how often they enjoy them, and where they would like to see greenways in the future.

Feedback received from the community meetings will be used to update the Greenways Master Plan and ultimately be shared with the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners.
