As Okaloosa County
residents, we enjoy an unsurpassed quality of life and outdoor
recreation. Today, Okaloosa County's population is growing
at a rate of more than 250 people per month, with 213,623
residents projected by the year 2010.
From the Blackwater, Yellow and
Shoal Rivers south to Choctawhatchee Bay and the Gulf of
Mexico - Okaloosa County's diverse natural environment plays
a vital role in preserving our wealth of outdoor activities.
As we enter the new millennium, the
Board of County Commissioners is striving to anticipate
the challenges of the future. The adoption and implementation
of a Parks Master Plan is a part of that effort.
