Implementing Florida 2070: Successful Local Conservation Ballot Measures in Florida

Representatives of the Trust for Public Land share proven strategies to assist Florida communities with the design and passage of local ballot measures to generate new public funds for parks and land conservation. The TPL Conservation Finance program has helped pass 26 local ballot measures in Florida, creating over $1 billion in new funding for conservation. The goal is to share how local governments and community groups in Florida can help fund the conservation of important local and regional natural lands to support Florida’s greenways and trails networks, the Florida Wildlife Corridor, and other park and conservation initiatives.
