Marine Advisory Committee Meeting Packet

The document contains minutes from two Santa Rosa County Marine Advisory Committee meetings (July 7, 2026, and April 3, 2026) and a presentation from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) on managing Florida's marine fisheries. The Advisory Committee meetings provided project updates on the Archie Glover Boat Ramp (engineering and permit phase, channel dredging 90% complete), Oriole Beach Boat Ramp, Artificial Reefs Phase II (deployment to begin late August, contract with Walter Marine extended to 11/3/2026), Floridatown Park Living Shoreline (completed May 30, 2026), and Marquis Basin (missing no wake signs ordered). The FWC presentation detailed their management strategies, including regional management for species like Red Drum and Spotted Seatrout, emphasizing stakeholder input, data collection (stock assessments, scientific surveys, fisheries monitoring), and holistic management metrics. Public comment was not explicitly detailed in the Advisory Committee minutes, but the FWC presentation highlighted the importance of stakeholder input and angler satisfaction in their management approach.
