EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Recommendation to approve and authorize the Chairman to sign an amendment to a Cooperation

OBJECTIVE: To approve and authorize the Chairman to sign an amendment to a Cooperation
Agreement with the South Florida Water Management District, Florida Forest Service, and the County,
providing for a direct funding mechanism for payments to be made by South Florida Water Management
District to Florida Forest Service.
CONSIDERATIONS: On July 13, 2021, the County, South Florida Water Management District
(“SFWMD”), and Florida Forest Service entered into a Cooperative Agreement for maintenance of
roadways and public access within the Picayune Strand Restoration Project, which is a component of the
Comprehensive Everglades Restoration Plan. The agreement defined the specific roles and
responsibilities of the parties regarding road maintenance and public access areas and set terms for
SFWMD to provide funding to Florida Forest Service for equipment, campground and treatment of
invasive vegetation.
After the execution of the Agreement, SFWMD attempted to make payment to the Florida Forest Service,
however, there was no direct funding mechanism for the Picayune Strand State Forest to directly receive
these payments.
Florida Forest Service has requested that the Agreement be amended for payment to be made to Friends
of Florida State Forests, Inc. which is the Direct Support Organization for Florida Forest Service, in order
to comply with the obligations outlined in the Agreement.
All other terms and conditions of the Agreement remain unchanged.
