Marina Dredging - Design and Permitting

All permits are in hand. Next steps are to determine where spoils material will be placed and request bids. ATM and the Canal Association on Goat Island are in discussions. At last report, the Canal Association was waiting on USACE to determine what additional work was necessary to the spoils area before they can begin accepting materials. Council must decide whether to wait on permits from nearby property owners and collaborate or proceed sooner without collaboration.
