An 1849 hurricane in Hillsborough County and the allure of Polk County’s open grazing land pushed cattlemen and settlers alike into the center of the state. As immigration increased, the new Floridians established small farms, orange groves, one-room schools and churches. In 1861, Polk County (named in honor of former President James K. Polk) was signed into legislation. In 1884, Henry B. Plant brought the South Florida Railroad through Polk County from Sanford to Tampa, generating explosive growth. Towns like Lakeland, Auburndale, Lake Alfred and Winter Haven rapidly developed along the new railroad. When the first commercial shipment of phosphate left the area in 1888, a new industry was born.

  • West Central Florida Regional Long Range Transportation Plan 2045 Planning for Tomorrow Ampa Bay Is Growing Up
    West Central Florida Regional Long Range Transportation Plan 2045 Planning for Tomorrow ampa Bay is growing up. Already among the top 20 most populated regions in the country, the Tampa Bay area is also one of the fastest growing. Visit any part ofT the region and you’ll experience growth firsthand. Construction is booming in St. Petersburg, Wesley Chapel, Bradenton, and many other areas. We feel it every day as traffic congestion worsens and commutes get longer. Add another one million people to the area over the next 20 years and it’s easy to see why we need a sustainable plan. The transportation investment decisions we make today will have a direct impact on the future safety, prosperity, health, and happiness of our region’s residents, businesses, and visitors. Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) and Transportation Planning Organizations (TPOs) are councils of local governments and transportation agencies that come together to plan, prioritize and fund the improvements that will shape our shared future. If you live in an urbanized area in the U.S., there is an MPO or TPO that serves you and your municipality. Because transportation doesn’t stop at county lines, the MPOs and TPOs of West Central Florida, each of which represent hundreds of thousands of citizens from Brooksville to Sarasota and Clearwater to Winter Haven, meet regularly to coordinate plans and priorities. Known as the MPO Chairs Coordinating Committee (CCC), the chairpersons of these MPOs and TPOs convene two to four times per year, and their support staff coordinates even more often. This Regional Long Range Transportation Plan is one of the CCC’s key work products.

  • East Central Florida Rip Current Program
    EAST CENTRAL FLORIDA RIP CURRENT PROGRAM Randy L. Lascody National Weather Service, Melbourne, FL Published in National Weather Digest,Volume 22 Number 2 (June 1998), p. 25-30 ABSTRACT A rip current is a complex meteorological/oceanographic phenomenon that poses significant danger to beach goers worldwide. Rip currents are narrow channels of water flowing out past the surf zone that can pull even strong swimmers into deep water beyond the offshore sand bar. In Florida, rip current-related drownings averaged 21 per year during the period 1989-97. East central Florida averaged 4-5 rip current-related drownings per year during this period. An examination of east central Florida rip current data showed that large numbers of rescues occurred most often when long period ocean swells were impacting the beaches. This was in contrast to a study by Lushine (1991) which found that rip currents along the southeast Florida coast were mainly due to moderate onshore winds. The empirical forecasting technique developed by Lushine (LURCS) was adapted for use in east central Florida (ECFL LURCS). Available rip current data was used to calculate the Probability of Detection (POD), which is the percentage of events that are detected, and the False Alarm Ration (FAR), which is the percentage of unverified warnings/forecasts. For events with a greater than normal number of rip current rescues, the POD was found to be slightly better than the 1994 national average POD for severe weather (Crowther and Halmstad 1995). A high FAR showed the need to further improve ECFL LURCS and become aggressive in verification.
