INTERSTATE-4 DESTINATION/MILEAGE SIGNING FOR PLANT CITY A subcommittee of the Chamber of Commerce contacted Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) concerning designation/mileage signing for Plant City and as a result, FDOT s district signing manager is recommending two additional signs as follows: 1) Just west of S.R. 572 on westbound U.S. 92 in Lakeland which would read PLANT CITY 7 and below that TAMPA 25, and

6 2) Just west of S.R. 539 on westbound I-4 in Lakeland, Plant City would be added as a second line to an existing sign and would thus read COUNTY LINE ROAD 5, PLANT CITY 10, TAMPA ROSELAND PARK SUBDIVISION STATUS REPORT Director of Public Works reports that the contract survey field work for Roseland Park Subdivision is complete including digital drawings and signed and sealed file of record field books.
