BACKGROUND: The City of Jacksonville with support of the Florida Inland Navigation District
is creating a Maritime Management Plan. A team from the Northeast Florida Regional Council,
University of North Florida and Jacksonville University will be gathering information about water
access facilities and the needs and desires of the community, so that we have a plan to guide us as
we maintain facilities, plan for unmet needs and ensure that the important role that water access
plays in our economy and our quality of life remains strong for the long term.
Ms. Margo Moehring with the Northeast Florida Regional Council will present the details of the
project including opportunities for public comment via a survey at JaxBoatPlan.com and three
public meetings to be held at the following dates and times:
-October 4 at the University of North Florida University Center(already occurred)
