PORT RICHEY â As Port Richey city leaders have planned their waterfront redevelopment effort, known as Cotee River Landing, they have been realistic about what they will need to pull it off, including parking in the confined area near the river.
This week they made a move that could be a big help, but it also comes at a price.
