À propos de ce contenu audio

 This week on North Port Now, we’re sharing important holiday updates, major transportation improvements, and a behind-the-scenes look at how everyday habits can impact our utility systems.

We begin with holiday facility closures and solid waste collection changes so you can plan ahead during the Christmas holiday.

Next, we look ahead to long-anticipated I-75 interchange improvements at Sumter and Toledo Blade boulevards. FDOT construction begins in January 2026, and residents are encouraged to attend an upcoming pre-construction meeting on Tuesday, Jan. 6, from 4–6 p.m. at Suncoast Technical College to learn more and ask questions.

We also preview North Port Fire Rescue’s Open House at the Training Tower on Saturday, Jan. 10, a free, family-friendly event featuring live demonstrations, activities, and more.

Plus, starting January 1, 2026, the City’s Social Services Division will expand to provide direct assistance with Florida Department of Children and Families programs—making it easier for residents to access help locally. Appointments can be made by calling 941-429-3700, or by visiting the Family Service Center at 6919 Outreach Way. Learn more at NorthPortFL.gov/SocialServices.

Finally, Utilities Compliance Coordinator Treyce Lukasek joins us to explain FOG—fats, oils, and grease—what it is, why it’s harmful to pipes, and how residents can help prevent costly clogs and protect the environment.

We hope you have a very happy holiday, North Port. Stay informed, stay engaged, and stay connected with North Port Now.
