Our
citizens' opinions matter. The Environmental
Science Forum represents Pinellas County's
efforts to address key citizen and special
interest group concerns on the current and
future use of County parks and preserves,
environmental lands and green space. The county
has put together an informal group to act
in a consulting fact-finding role to the County
Administrator. The Forum
is made up of representatives from organizations
and private individuals with environmental
knowledge and interests. Pinellas County administrators
and representatives from Environmental Management,
Brooker Creek Preserve, Parks and Utilities
will provide staff support.
