Adopt-a-Median Program

The City of Cape Coral provides the opportunity to participate in the beautification of roadway medians through the Adopt-a-Median Program. This program allows residents, businesses, and organizations to fund the “adoption” of a median and install landscaping in accordance with the approved design elements outlined here, with the City providing perpetual maintenance of the landscaping. The City also provides signage to show appreciation to participants in the program, allowing the public to recognize the generous donation. (Sign example below) The City of Cape Coral may even contribute toward projects of high value if considered and approved by City Council.
