Jeff Sheffield, the executive director of the North Florida Transportation Planning Organization (NFTPO), will deliver a keynote address at the St. Johns County Chamber of Commerce’s next Economic Development Council (EDC) Quarterly Breakfast on Friday, Jan. 25.
As North Florida’s independent regional transportation planning agency for Duval, Clay, Nassau and St. Johns counties (a 3,000 square mile area), the NFTPO helps the area coordinate its transportation strategies and priorities. According to the Chamber, new transportation modes will be game-changers for the economic development of the region and the county. Sheffield’s discussion will include items in the long-range plan that will impact St. Johns County.
The event will take place from 8 to 9:30 a.m., with the program starting at 8:30. It will be held at Shell Hall at the World Golf Hall of Fame in St. Augustine, which is located at 1 World Golf Place. The cost to attend is $40 for members and $50 the day of the event.
