CCA October 9 Seminar

CCA Skidaway’s seminar on October 9 features Sean Burgess, The Landings Association's Director of Public Works. The seminar begins at 7 p.m. at St. Peters Episcopal Church (3 West Ridge Road).

Burgess has been with The Landings Association (TLA) for nearly 20 years, the last four as Director of Public Works. His presentation will focus on the development of water committees that conduct annual reviews, establish overall water policy, and promote community conservation of water supply including shallow and deep aquifers. His presentation also will include how TLA works closely with CCA Skidaway to implement the fishery management program throughout our lagoon system.

Burgess manages all aspects of the Association's Public Works Department, including Building and Grounds, Construction, Environmental, Fleet, and Contract Management. This involves the supervision of dozens of employees, and planning and implementing capital projects consistent with the Association's Capital Asset Management Plan and longterm Strategic Plan.

He previously was the Association’s Environmental Manager for 14 years, with responsibility for management of TLA’s environmental resources, including 660 acres of common property, and 151 lagoons and associated wildlife, with an array of in-house and contract workers. Burgess holds a BA in biology from Lakeland University in Wisconsin.

The CCA’s raffle prize for this month is an inshore salt water rod-and-reel valued at $150 from Bass Pro.
