    The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) will hold a public workshop in Hollywood to discuss possible small adjustments to boating safety zones in the Intracoastal Waterway in Broward County.

    The workshop will be on Tuesday, Feb. 19, from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Anne Kolb Nature Center, 751 Sheridan Street in Hollywood.
