LMNA holds meetings throughout the year at the Success House (1001 Success Ave). These meetings are designed to educate neighbors on various topics that are relevant to us. Our LPD community officer usually attends to give us an update on any police related issues as well as get feedback from us on what we are seeing in the neighborhood that may need attention.
We typically have a guest speaker who presents for 15 or 20 minutes. Topics include historic preservation, businesses from around the neighborhood, issues facing our neighborhood and more.
A special meeting may be called to address a time sensitive topic. These meetings will be communicated via email and Facebook. Please be sure to signup for our email list at the bottom of this page.

April 25 – PROFRAM:
“The resurvey of the East and South Lake Morton Historic Districts is complete! At the April 25th LMNA meeting, Emily Foster (City of Lakeland Senior Planner, Historic Preservation) will present the results and recommendations of the resurvey and gather feedback from residents. As a planning and maintenance tool, the periodic resurvey of established historic districts allows the period of significance of an established district to be expanded, newer structures to be included as contributing resources, and existing contributing buildings to be reassessed, which furthers the protection of historic buildings. As a long-term goal of the City’s Historic Preservation Board, efforts to resurvey the City’s historic districts began in 2021. In 2022, The City of Lakeland received a $50,000 matching grant from the Florida Division of Historical Resources to help fund Phase 1 of an expected three-phase project to resurvey all seven of Lakeland’s historic districts. The resurvey plan is as follows:
- Phase 1 (FY 22) – East Lake Morton and South Lake Morton – Completed March 2023
- Phase 2 (FY 24) – Dixieland and Downtown/Munn Park
- Phase 3 (FY 26) – Beacon Hill, Biltmore-Cumberland, and Lake Hunter Terrace
PaleoWest, LLC, a cultural resources management consultant based in St. Petersburg, conducted the Phase 1 resurvey and created the final report and recommendations based on the findings of this resurvey.”
