West Boynton Ranches has been working hard in 2021 to bring our agricultural conservation and residential properties into county compliance. In a short period of time, we’ve made great progress.
Over the last few months, our fishpond has been stocked with Tilapia and Channel Catfish in preparation of our first harvest this fall. In addition, assuming the county officials will permit it, West Boynton Ranches plans further improvements to the aquaculture facility based on input from our aquaculture consultants.
We’ve also complied by removing the pilings that had been installed for a dock, even though the dock is necessary for the agricultural fishpond.
Further to the Magistrate’s rulings, West Boynton Ranches has honed its aquaculture operations in accordance with Best Management Practices. The fishpond has been stocked with Tilapia and Channel Catfish in preparation of our first harvest this fall. In addition, assuming the County will permit it, West Boynton Ranches plans further improvements to the aquaculture facility based on input from our aquaculture consultants.
Nevertheless, we’re determined to resolve our past mistakes to reestablish our good standing as an agricultural operation and preserve in our community. As we endeavor to correct violations and grow our agricultural operations, we’ll also work hard to build community goodwill and mend fences with our residential neighbors, as well as the county officials representing their interests.
