The City of Fort Walton Beach is holding a strategic planning session on March 30th at 8:30 AM at the city hall annex, which is right next door to city hall.

The Planning Session is a public workshop for the city council, both old and new, where they will talk about where the city’s going, what the city has been doing, and get input from the city council on what they would like to see.

According to Doug Rainer, Public Information Officer for the city of Fort Walton Beach, the planning session will allow the council to review the strategic plan that’s already in place and see if there are any tweaks that need to be made.

“We encourage people to watch that,” continued Rainer. “This was really the right time to have this meeting, right ahead of budget season. So we’re going to kick-off this new council with strategic planning and then continuing to move forward.”

The planning session will be streamed online as well at fwb.org/live.
