42nd Annual Planning & Design Awards presented by TECO
About
The Planning Commission is proud to announce our 42nd annual celebration of excellence in planning in Hillsborough County, presented by TECO. This awards program is a well-respected tradition honoring projects contributing to a better quality of life in our community and serving as models to learn from and emulate. With an emphasis on the importance of great planning in our own region, our awards program is held in October to align with the many national festivities during the American Planning Association’s (APA) National Community Planning Month and celebration of Great Places in America!
Our 42nd Annual Planning & Design Awards presented by TECO will be held on Wednesday, October 30, 2024, from 5:15 pm to 8:15 pm at the Shanna & Bryan Glazer Jewish Community Center. Tickets will go on sale on September 3, 2024.
