Complete a Survey & Help Shape Our Landscape Master Plan
A kickoff public meeting was held on January 11 to collect input from residents, business owners, and interested stakeholders as we set the course for Cooper City's Landscape Master Plan.
The success of this plan weighs heavily on your opinions and suggestions regarding signage, landscaping, and beautification.
If you missed the meeting, you can still provide input by completing a survey. You have until February 9 to fill out the survey, which includes the same information presented during the public meeting.
Together, we are revitalizing a landscape that reflects the vibrant spirit of "Someplace Special!"
