The Commission changed the resolution to eliminate references to the nutritional value of shrimp and sustainability of shrimp, at the request of Commissioner Barbara Blonder. The practices of shrimp fishing using bottom trawling are very problematic in terms of maintaining marine ecosystems, she said.
But she voted for the resolution. I absolutely support this recognition, and as I understood it, it s a recognition of the culture and history of our shrimp fishing tradition and the families that contributed to that rich culture, Blonder said.
Vice Mayor Nancy Sikes-Kline made sure the Commission kept a line about the unique flavor of Florida shrimp.
