GENERAL SUBJECT MATTER TO BE DISCUSSED: 

The Southwest Florida Water Management District, St. Johns River Water Management District and South Florida Water Management District have scheduled a virtual joint public meeting to solicit stakeholder input on each District’s annual update of their priority list and schedule for the establishment of minimum flows and water levels as well as water reservations. This workshop is being held to promote consistent water resource planning in the Central Florida Water Initiative (CFWI) area. The CFWI encompasses five counties: Orange, Osceola, Polk, Seminole and southern Lake.

Through the CFWI, the three water management districts are working collaboratively with other agencies and stakeholders to implement effective water resource planning, including water resource and supply development and management strategies to protect, conserve and restore our water resources.

One or more members of the Governing Board of the South Florida Water Management District may participate in this meeting. No Governing Board action will be taken.

The agenda will be posted to the District’s website SFWMD.gov/meetings seven days prior to the meeting.
