NEW PORT RICHEY — Coronavirus-related restrictions loosening and vaccination numbers increasing are resulting in an increase of social gatherings and events. In an effort to accommodate guests, now and into the future, the New Port Richey City Council voted April 20 to expedite the reconfiguration of the Nebraska Avenue parking lot at a cost not to exceed $90,000. The 5-0 vote of approval increases the cost of the project by 12.5%, from $721,942.50 to $811,942.50. It also tasks Largo-based Right of Way Contracting LLC to complete the project at least two months sooner, reducing the timeframe from 180 days to 120. “We were sensitive to the disruption to the business community and the inconvenience to the public, so we were looking for an expedited schedule,” City Manager Debbie Manns said.
