Working Waterfronts Preservation Initiative

The changes to the Monroe County 2010 Comprehensive Plan represent the culmination of a two-phase study of the state of the County’s recreational and commercial working waterfronts and the development of strategies to help strengthen and preserve this critical sector of the County’s economy and character.  The County is experiencing the loss of recreational and commercial working waterfront and the loss of public access to the water due to the redevelopment of marine facilities, including, but not limited to marinas, boatyards, wet and dry storage, fish houses and commercial fishing vessel dockage.  This amendment proposes changes to sections of the Comprehensive Plan, specifically the Future Land Use and Conservation and Coastal Management Elements, to help preserve and strengthen the County’s recreational and commercial working waterfronts.
