Sunshine State officials are considering a recent proposal to make changes at nine of Florida’s state parks, including two in the Tampa Bay area. The Florida Department of Environmental Protection wants to add golf courses, disc golf courses, lodging, glamping sites, and pickleball courts.
At Honeymoon Island State Park, officials are considering the addition of up to four pickleball courts. The plan is the same for Hillsborough River State Park, but a disc golf course is also in the works.
Lawmakers were meant to meet across the Sunshine State on Tuesday, Aug. 27 to further discuss the proposal, with the public invited to comment. Those meetings were postponed late last week.
