In-Person & Virtual (Hybrid)
Alderman's Ford Nature Preserve is a part of the South Hillsborough Wildlife Corridor, a network of protected lands in Hillsborough County that creates connected habitat for wildlife and protects natural resources like the Alafia River. The corridor's preservation is vital for the region's ecosystems due to rapid urban development in the area.
Residents are invited to attend the in-person meeting, and the virtual engagement is offered as an option for residents who cannot attend an in-person meeting on Aug. 4, 2026.
