Annual Report]

Successful Acquisitions

The County Commission’s goal to "protect and restore important public lands, natural habitats and water bodies in Broward County" has been furthered through the expenditure of approximately $390 million out of the $400 million Safe Parks and Land Preservation Bond monies appropriated in 2000. (The remaining $10 million is being allocated in a competitive process as projects are completed and recognized for funding.)

Presently, 92 sites comprising some 927 acres have been purchased with another 110 acres secured as County Parks. The development rights of another five sites totaling 64 additional acres have also been saved from development.

The County will see the benefits of the Land Preservation Program for years to come, as new natural areas, passive parks and neighborhood playgrounds are completed and opened to the public. Please review the  2007 Annual Report to see a sampling of the year’s accomplishments.
