Naples Park Public Utility Renewal
The Naples Park Public Utility Renewal project includes the replacement of water, wastewater and stormwater systems that service residents and businesses along 98th and 99th Avenues North between Tamiami Trail and Vanderbilt Drive. As part of the improvements, the contractor will be replacing water and wastewater service lines. Clay wastewater pipe laterals from the property will be replaced with new PVC pipe. This work may need to take place on private property and permission from the owner will be necessary. Stormwater collection and treatment system rehabilitation work will take place in the right-of-way. This project will also improve the ability to collect wastewater from Basin 101 for conveyance to the treatment facility to prevent overflows and ensure a continued high level of wastewater service to the community. Project completion of 98th and 99th Avenues North is anticipated in Summer 2025. For more information about the project, visit Naples Park PUR project website for more details.

As part of the improvements, asbestos cement water lines and clay wastewater lines will be replaced with new polyvinyl chloride (PVC) pipe. Stormwater infrastructure will also be replaced with a hybrid system of perforated pipes and shallow swales. Palm River will receive a looped sidewalk around the neighborhood. Project completion is anticipated in Summer 2024.
