- Homeowners in The Ranches say Parkland’s road repairs have made streets less safe
Homeowners in The Ranches neighborhood argue that a $15 million stormwater drainage project, while intended to improve infrastructure, has made their streets less safe and more unstable. Residents feel neglected, noting that necessary repairs have led to issues like narrowing streets and damaging canals. They are particularly upset about being required to pay for the work through special assessments despite questioning how previous tax dollars were used.
