Construction improvements to new arena (added by County in 2002), extra barn space and additional space in the Extension Office(see attached) |
|
Is this a water project as described in Chapter 2002-291, Laws of Florida? |
No |
|
Measurable Outcome Anticipated: |
a) Arena Area - Covering the arena area will increast useage at the Southeastern by 30-50% b)Additional Barn Space - Additonal barn space would allow larger horse events to utilize existing facilities. Currently, several regional events from around the Southeast must go elsewhere because of space limitations c) Extension Office/Livestock Pavillion Meeting Space - Youth development programs, 4-H, FFA and Southeastern Youth Fair can continue to grow if space needs are met through expansion. |
