BACKGROUND: On April 26, 1977 the Board adopted Ordinance 77-11, which established rules and regulations governing the ground transportation operations at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport. On June 19, 2007, the Board adopted Ordinance 07-29, Attachment 1 to Ordinance 77-11, which amended the ground transportation policy. In reviewing the current ground transportation policy, we found significant changes that need to be made. Due to the extent of changes being proposed, we recommend that the Board repeal the existing Ground Transportation Policy and replace it in its entirety with the attached policy. OPTIONS: Approve, Reject or Table. RECOMMENDATIONS: It is Staff's recommendation that the Board approve this Ordinance regulating the Ground Transportation Policy at the Northwest Florida Regional Airport.

Staff also requests that the Board authorize staff to pursue any and all grant/funding opportunities for this project. BACKGROUND: The Choctawhatchee Bay shoreline along Veteran's Park is experiencing long term chronic erosion. This erosion is responsible for loss of valuable property with the resultant loss of recreational opportunities and loss of upland resources and habitat. Staff proposes a "soft", living shorelines approach to counter this erosion. This approach has been successful in countless areas and will create educational and tourism related opportunities as well. Also, in beginning the permitting process we can position this project in a more favorable position for National Resource Damage Assessment, RESTORE and other funding opportunities. OPTIONS: Approve/Disapprove RECOMMENDATIONS: Approve and authorize the Chairman to sign Task Order #1, contract C14-2117-TDD with Taylor Engineering in the amount of $106,108.00 for the preliminary design and environmental permitting of the Veteran's Park living shoreline project and authorize staff to pursue grant/funding opportunities for this project.
