Pinellas County beaches are a life source for our district’s local businesses and communities.  Beach renourishment and the reauthorization of renourishment programs are both essential to protecting and improving our quality of life and our economy. I am proud to serve on the House Water Resources and Environment Subcommittee and will work to pursue such programs to replenish eroding coastlines along the County and ensure focus is returned to our beaches to further grow our tourism and tourism-dependent businesses and industries.
