Seminole County, FL (September 30, 2024) — Today, the Seminole County Parks and Recreation Department celebrates the completion of the new loop trail renovations at Sanlando Park in Altamonte Springs. Media are invited to attend a ribbon-cutting of the trail, funded by the One Cent Infrastructure Sales Tax, or Penny Sales Tax.
The one-mile loop trail is paved and ADA-accessible, taking pedestrians and cyclists through the shaded areas between Sanlando Park and the Seminole County Softball Complex. The former unpaved trail experienced issues with erosion and stormwater runoff, and the new renovations will help resolve them. Additional paved pathways around Sanlando Park ensure all visitors can safely access the park's pavilions, playground, and parking lot.
Parks and trails are an essential component of public infrastructure and Seminole County's quality of life. The Penny Sales Tax, levied on the sale of consumer goods to visitors, residents, and businesses, helps fund park enhancements such as this one, as well as infrastructure needs like stormwater system improvements and new sidewalks and roads.
