Ms. MacGillis stated that it had been indicated to her that there are not adequate features in that particular waterway to allow the City to regulate boat speed there, but that she could be wrong and is open to discussing it further with Mr. Burket and other interested parties.

The Jacksonville Waterways Commission is reviewing potential improvements to waterway features to allow for better regulation of boat speeds. This review is part of a larger discussion about expanding regulated zones. The process may involve a navigation study and requires a resolution from the local government body before proceeding with an application to the FWC. This early stage presents an opportunity for local contractors and service providers. Businesses involved in site preparation, grading, civil engineering, and potentially marine construction could find future work as plans develop. Reaching out now allows firms to understand the project's direction before formal bids and permits are issued.
