Wekiva CMP Update

10/19/2022-Thank you to everyone who participated! We received great feedback! The time for public input has closed, but we appreciate your interest. Questions or comments? Please contact us via the Contact page on our site.

The Wekiva River System Management Committee (MC) is performing an
update to the 2012 Comprehensive Management Plan (CMP). The management plan
was originally developed in 2012 to serve as the basis for protecting the Wekiva River
System’s values and ensuring the river will be protected in perpetuity for future
generations to enjoy.

As part of the update process, the MC would like to gather public input on how to
improve the Wekiva Wild & Scenic River System. There are multiple opportunities to
join us and share your ideas in-person or through online engagement!
