Approve the New 2026 KPSLB Community Shred Event

Keep Port St. Lucie Beautiful (KPSLB) proposes adding a new annual community shred event to its calendar, tentatively scheduled for Saturday, May 30, 2026, from 9 AM to 11 AM. This event aims to provide St. Lucie County residents with an additional opportunity to securely dispose of personal documents, addressing a strong preference indicated by residents at the Citizen Summit. The event will be funded in part by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Litter Control & Prevention Grant, covering vendor fees for All Points Mobile Shredding at an estimated cost of $400 per hour for three hours, totaling $1,200. Expected attendance is 200-300 vehicles. Potential locations include Port St. Lucie High School, Southport Middle School, or City Public Works facilities, with final site selection dependent on school district or city approval. The event will be advertised using existing city resources, with no planned paid advertising. Staffing will include 8-10 KPSLB employees, with support from the Public Works Department for traffic management and the Port St. Lucie Police Department for event detail.
