Summary
The Environmental Protection Commission convened, heard an invocation by Commissioner Cameron Cepeda, approved a procedural motion to require phone recording (motion carried 5–0), heard presentations and adjourned; staff announced outreach events and the next meeting date.
The Environmental Protection Commission convened with a pledge and invocation; the invocation was introduced as being given by Commissioner Cameron Cepeda. The chair noted a records message from Commissioner Christine Miller that she would be absent from the 08/27/2026 meeting and the body conducted roll call.
A procedural motion "by Commissioner Cohen, seconded by Commissioner Wasser, to please record your phone" was made and the chair announced, "Motion carries 5 to 0." Commissioners heard presentations and staff reports (outreach events, seagrass monitoring, staff presentations to regional partners). An employee, Rick Kirby, who had served EPC in water treatment roles, was memorialized in staff remarks.
The chair closed the meeting after staff announcements; the next meeting was noted for October 22. No policy votes beyond the procedural phone-recording motion were taken during this session.
