What is the FAC?

The Ferry Advisory Committee provides studies and recommends resolutions in ferry transportation matters that affect the San Juan Islands. The board consists of seven members serving four-year terms. Members include representatives from each of the ferry-served islands, established ferry-user groups, commercial users, and a member from the County Council, Christine Minney.
