Palisades Trail
The trail that runs between Tampa and Reseda just below the cliffs suffered damage during the rains in early 2005. A FEMA grant was requested to repair the washed out trail and the many water catch basins that manage water runoff around the trail. Repairs began in April / May 2006 and were completed at the end of summer 2006. The trail is open for hiking. For more information contact Councilman Smith's office.
