Sergeant Kyle Price introduced himself as the Marco Island Police Department’s new marine-unit supervisor, effective the 21st, and turned the operational update over to Marine Officer Alex Cordero.
Cordero summarized recent activity: discovery and removal of a fully submerged kayak, a repeatedly struck channel marker in Collier Bay (to be replaced by a floating can buoy to save costs), and the code boat's focus on illicit discharges and dilapidated docks. He said the code boat operator (Officer Ed Barrios) has written multiple warnings and citations related to illicit discharges and that staff can compile a detailed spreadsheet of citations and warnings for the committee. "Multiple," he said when asked whether warnings/citations had been issued.
Members requested the citation logs and asked about ride-along procedures; Sergeant Price agreed to provide forms and help arrange ride-alongs. The committee thanked the unit for the update and the staff offered to provide the requested spreadsheet before the next meeting.
