Florida City Week: October 20 - 26, 2025

Florida City Week is an annual event that celebrates the vital role of cities in building a stronger and more connected Florida. It's a time to recognize how city government works for you, from public safety and parks to community planning and local services. You can learn more about how city governments work at Cities 101.

Throughout the week, we encourage you to learn more about the people and processes that shape our Town. Whether it's attending a public meeting and events, following along on social media, or visiting Town Hall, there are many ways to get involved and stay engaged.

We invite you to participate in Lantana's week of celebration and discovery as we highlight how our town government serves you and contributes to the quality of life in our community.
