As we welcome spring, Coral Springs is filled with events that celebrate community connection for residents of all ages. In addition, we are expanding how we connect with residents and looking at creative ways to ensure greater transparency.
Have you heard a rumor around the city and wondered if it’s true? In today’s fast-moving digital world, information spreads quickly, but it’s not always accurate. That’s why the city has launched a new webpage, “Rumor Has It,” designed to combat misinformation and provide residents with a trusted source for factual updates. Residents can visit CoralSprings.gov/rumors to view current topics or submit a rumor for review.
We’re also expanding the way we connect through the launch of our new Under the Sun Podcast. Each episode will feature conversations with elected officials, city leaders, public safety professionals, and community partners, offering insight into how local government works and highlighting the issues that matter most to our residents and businesses. Episodes will be available on Spotify and YouTube. Visit CoralSprings.gov/podcast for more information.

The city will host a sensory-friendly Touch-A-Truck event on Saturday, April 11, at 10 a.m. at Mullins Park (10150 NW 29th Street). This special event allows individuals with special needs to explore emergency response vehicles in a calm, supportive environment. Caregivers will also have the opportunity to register loved ones in the city’s Special Needs Database, ensuring first responders have vital information during emergencies.
