NEW BUfINEff~ N/A
OLD BUfINEff~ Minutes from the September 19, 2012 meeting were approved.
fTAFF COMMENif~ Update from Don West, Public Works Director concerning relocating
channel markers for safety reasons. This will be completely handled by our Parks and Facility
Department as they have a line item in their budget that cover the expenses through boating
registration dollars that come in from Tax Collectors Office. The US Coast Guard determines
the locations of channel markers, and must approve the re-locations through a permitting
process.

Don also updated the Committee Member about the Channel Inlet Dredging, due to the
Board of County Commissioners declaring an emergency, the County is now able to go out for
3 bids, the project will go to the lowest bidder, and the County Administrator will be able to
sign for up to $260,000 as this is the projected cost of the project per Board approval.
Don explained that AECOM was able to help the County secure a permit quickly due to the
fact that this is a small volume to be dredged and that the project is a declared emergency.
Tom McGowan explained that there is an area that is in need of pushing or moving sand to
level the area so that ships can come through at a 28' depth and the dredge will only be
moving the sand around and not removing the spoil material.
Don introduced Pamela Adams to the Committee Members to cover the update with the Port
Master Plan. All Members were a-mail Phase II of the Port Master Plan prior to the meeting
for review. Members discussed whether or not to make a recommendation to the Board of
County Commissioners and when would be a good time to do so. After much discussion and
with a few revisions to the Port Master Plan Phase II scope document, Brad Currie, Vice
Chairman made a motion to make a recommendation to the Board of County Commissioners
to move forward with Phase II of the Port Master Plan, Marty Lavin 2"d the motion, all were in
favor except Ms. Chapman.
