Flower Garden Banks Sanctuary Advisory Council meetings are held at the call of the Chair and the Sanctuary Superintendent. All council meetings are open to the public and anyone interested in offering comments in reference to agenda items or other pertinent topics may do so during a designated public comment period at each meeting.
Meetings are now being held in a hybrid format and may be attended in-person or virtually. The webinars are not recorded.
If you wish to speak during the public comment period on location, please sign up on the designated sheet at the meeting entry area. If you wish to speak virtually, you may submit a request through the webinar’s chat/question box. Comments made during a council meeting will be considered part of the administrative record for that meeting and are limited to three (3) minutes per person.
