Utility Advisory Committee

The FPUA Utility Advisory Committee is a volunteer, community-based advisory group fostering open dialogue, business concerns and community engagement between FPUA customers and leadership of Fort Pierce’s locally-owned municipal utility provider. The UAC typically advises on topics ranging from rates, infrastructure improvement, customer service, and other ways FPUA can better engage the Fort Pierce Community.

FPUA’s Utility Advisory Committee was established on November 2nd, 2021, through the execution of Resolution No. UA 2021-10, to foster open dialogue, discuss utility topics, address business concerns, and engage the community in a public forum. Members of the Utility Advisory Committee are appointed by the FPUA Board and the Fort Pierce City Commissioners, with three additional at-large positions that may be appointed by the Committee. Members are responsible for educating the public on FPUA initiatives and projects, providing input, to FPUA, from the community on community outreach opportunities, and more.
