Six-mile linear park to be added along Able Canal
By MEGHAN BRADBURY - | Apr 28, 2021
A new park is coming to Lehigh Acres.
An interlocal agreement between the Lee County Board of County Commissioners and the Lehigh Acres Municipal Services Improvement District was approved last week calling for the county to develop, operate and maintain a 6-mile long linear park along the northern side of Able Canal.
The LA-MSID, which owns the property, will be closely involved in the design, permitting, construction and subsequent operation and maintenance of the park. The district will also be responsible for the operation and maintenance of infrastructure that is not associated with the linear park project.
