At its October 20 meeting, the Largo City Commission celebrated several initiatives that help make Largo the Community of Choice in Tampa Bay:

McGough Nature Park Improvements: The City received a ceremonial check for $560,000 in state funding, championed by State Representative Berny Jacques and Senator Nick DiCeglie, to support the second phase of the McGough Nature Park Boardwalk Replacement Project and improve accessibility for park visitors.

National Friends of Libraries Week: Commissioners recognized the dedicated volunteers of the Friends of Largo Library, whose generosity, hard work, and commitment ensure the Largo Public Library remains a vibrant place of learning, discovery, and opportunity for the Largo community.

Florida City Government Week: The Commission proclaimed October 19-25 as Florida City Government Week, highlighting opportunities for residents to connect with their local government, stay informed, and get involved in shaping the future of Largo.

The City of Largo is grateful to its community members, volunteers, and agency partners for helping make Largo the community of choice in Tampa Bay. This recognition also highlights Largo’s ongoing commitment to public health and safety and community pride, which are key focus areas of Largo’s Vision 2030 Strategic Plan.

Largo Citizens Academy participants visited Largo’s Recreation, Parks and Arts facilities on Mon, Oct 5. Starting at the Community Center, the class boarded a bus to tour several City parks and the Largo Golf Course. Stops included a behind-the-scenes look at the Central Park Performing Arts Center stage, a turn on the slide at Highland Recreation Center, and a tour of Southwest Recreation facilities.

On Mon, Oct 12, the Police Department welcomed the class with an introduction from Police Chief Michael Loux and Lieutenant Nick Cusumano. Participants toured the department, viewed equipment demonstrations, and learned about the Taser/firearm simulator, which two volunteers tried. The evening also included a vehicle tour and a demonstration featuring police dogs Bruce and Swayze. Participants asked questions throughout the visit, and one signed up for the Citizens Police Academy.

Thank you to the Recreation, Parks and Arts and Police Department teams for welcoming participants and sharing their work. Learn more about the Citizens' Academy program at Largo.com/Volunteer
