Charter of FOTC "The FOTC (Friends of Turkey Creek) is a volunteer group composed of homeowners on the Turkey Creek waterway.
Our commitment is to achieve a balanced environment for the Turkey Creek and Indian River Lagoon ecosystem while retaining
waterway access for the community. We work with a variety of government, business, private and non-profit agencies to promote
the positive reconciliation of city area growth and wildlife enhancement in the Turkey Creek watershed.
Project Listing:

The
FOTC is working with SJRWMD (St. John’s River Water Management District), MTWCD (Melbourne Tillman Water Control District),
