STATE OF GEORGIA OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR

ATLANTA 30334-0900

For generations, Jekyll Island has been a refuge for the people of Georgia. Its role as a place of relaxation, recreation, and restoration has never been more important than it is today. In a year that tested us in ways previously unimaginable, the Jekyll Island Authority carefully assessed this year’s challenges and rapidly deployed measures that allowed Georgians and our guests to safely continue visiting this beautiful destination. In the earliest days of the pandemic, the Jekyll Island Authority used guidance from state and federal authorities to develop innovative approaches to safeguard the health and safety of guests, residents, and employees. These strategies were implemented in cooperation with business partners, providing an immediate island-wide, unified response. Although almost one-half of Authority employees suffered furloughed or other financial hardships, the staff remained flexible, following state guidance and continually adapting to a rapidly evolving public health emergency. I believe the determination and creativity demonstrated on Jekyll Island will continue to promote the recovery of coastal tourism in 2021. By reimagining ways for visitors to safely experience the island, the Authority was able to achieve a beneficial balance that kept Jekyll accessible to those who needed respite, while maintaining its commitment to local and regional businesses and the larger economy of our state. Operationally, this self-sustaining state authority truly delivered on our Georgia Safety Promise, which was designed to help instill consumer confidence, empower businesses to take critical steps to help protect people during COVID-19, and keep Georgia open for business. The pandemic has placed unprecedented demands on our resources, but we have not wavered in our commitment to our citizens and to the businesses and jobs that drive the Georgia economy. COVID-19 has also reminded us of just how important Jekyll Island remains to Georgians, especially during our most trying moments. The ability to enjoy the island’s wideopen spaces, safely experience its many recreational activities, or simply engage in quiet contemplation are paramount when the need to focus on physical and mental health has never been greater. Jekyll Island’s resolve and resiliency should make all Georgians proud. Sincerely,

Governor Brian P. Kemp 1

Where We ’ve Been

COMMITTED TO THE SAFET Y OF OUR EMPLOYEES, RESIDENTS, AND VISITORS AS OUR FIRST PRIORIT Y

2 0 2 0 REC A P Like so many other businesses in our community, around the state and in the nation, the Jekyll Island Authority (JIA) has faced unimaginable challenges over the last year. And as a self-sustaining state entity that relies so heavily on tourism, the future prosperity of the island seemed uncertain. Approximately 47 percent of the Authority’s operational budget for the year was dependent on amenity revenues, some of which shut down during the early months of the pandemic or operated at a reduced capacity through the remainder of the year. These revenues were decimated by both amenity closures and the lack of travelers during many of the island’s peak summer months. The Jekyll Island Convention Center experienced extensive group business cancellations, resulting in lost revenues for the Authority of approximately $4.5 million between March 15, 2020 and June 30, 2021. Although expenses were aggressively cut, more than 43 percent of the Authority’s employees, including executive leadership, were furloughed, many for several months. Events like the Fourth of July fireworks and the 15th annual Jekyll Island Shrimp & Grits Festival were canceled.

But out of this adversity, came an opportunity to reimagine the visitor experience. The JIA remained committed to its employees, residents and visitors, and made health a top priority. Working alongside island hotels and business partners, a unified approach to health and safety was rolled out, increasing sanitization measures and stringent protocols at every touchpoint around the island. Emphasis was placed on healthy recreation — beaches, bike, and nature trails — that continued to provide a respite for so many. The JIA evolved its event standard, providing new ways for visitors to gather safely and enjoy the holiday season with their families, and saw visitation numbers surpass those of the year prior. And nearly every month of the final two quarters of the year, revenue numbers remained on target under a reduced budget.

This is a testament to the work of the JIA’s more than 350 employees, who remained dedicated to serving this special place, even during the most trying times. A unif ied approach to health and safety remains the Authority’s priority. But reminding visitors why the island’s pristine landscapes — from the variety of beach shorelines to the majestic maritime forests to the vibrant marsh habitats — is more consequential now than ever. And the power of this singular island to inspire and uplif t remains undiminished.

Where We Are DEDICATED TO ENHANCED ACCESSIBILIT Y AROUND THE ISLAND

RE SURFACED S T REE T S With nearly 3 million visitors making their way to Jekyll Island each year, infrastructure improvements to the island’s roadways remain an ongoing priority. As a result of funding provided through SpecialPurpose Local-Option Sales Tax (SPLOST) in 2020, the island was able to mill and repave the final portion of over 10 miles of residential roadways and restripe all major thoroughfares.

BE ACH CRO S SOV ER S Many beach crossovers sustained damage from hurricanes and storms overtime or had to be removed during revetment project construction. Upon completion of Phase II of the Jekyll Island Beach Revetment Rehabilitation Project funded by the State, which aimed to secure a more resilient shoreline protection system along Jekyll’s unique beachfront, the focus was to provide residents and visitors more direct access to the beach. The first priority in 2020 was to replace previously existing structures and introduce three new ADA-compliant crossovers that could offer a scenic overlook. Of the 11 total crossovers to be constructed, six of them reached completion by the end of the year. Five more are slated to be finished by March of 2021, completing this effort to provide more accessible access to Jekyll’s special coastline.

BIK E PAT H REH A B In addition to the island enhancements completed for roads and beach crossovers in 2020, the Authority was able to proceed with capital funding for its ongoing Bike Path Rehabilitation project. With expenditures totaling a little more than $479,000, 3.6 miles of bike path along Beachview Drive North, near the beachfront, was repaved to meet new bike path standards, including increasing the paths to 8 feet wide, for multipurpose use. Once future capital funds become available, an additional 7.44 miles of bike paths will undergo rehabilitation, including new construction, to ensure the biking experience on Jekyll Island continues to be one of the island’s greatest assets.

Where We Are

EFFECTIVELY MANAGING OUR RESOURCES AND VISITATION TO BE BETTER STEWARDS

G AT E EN T RY With nearly two years of evaluating, planning, implementation, and testing, a new gate entry system was introduced in May of 2020, designed to make trips onto the island more ef ficient and convenient. The new system launched with intuitive touch screens and improved payment kiosks, informative visual display monitors, and an enhanced online portal to improve the process for pass purchases and renewals. New license plate recognition cameras identify vehicles for which annual passes have been purchased, providing the option for a dedicated annual pass lane, as well as additional security and safety operations. With the new entry gate system fully operational, the Jekyll Island Authority can more accurately calculate the number of vehicles on the island for planning and allocation of island resources. The rollout of the new system was a direct result of the 2018 Jekyll Island Carrying Capacity and Infrastructure Study that assessed people, THEthe 20number BEST ofPLACES vehicles, and development the island can accommodate while still maintaining unique TOitsGO IN character. 2019

A IRP OR T IMPROV E MEN T S The Jekyll Island Airport (09J) has undergone substantial improvements since 2016, but none as significant as the introduction of Jekyll Island’s first self-service aviation fuel facility in May of 2020. The airport sold more than ten thousand gallons of fuel in its first seven months of operations. As reported in the Georgia Statewide Airport Economic Impact Study, 09J provided an annual economic impact of more than $2.7 million and airport-supported annual state 19 & local sales & income FOR tax BEST BEACHES revenues of more than $108,000. Further airport improvements will continue into 2021, with FAMILIES & KIDSan additional, proposed four-year Capital Improvement Plan to include airport —Today terminal renovations, Show runway safety area improvements, pavement evaluation/rehabilitation, and hangar construction.

HIS TORIC PRE SER VAT ION 2020 marked the completion of the Historic Bond Fund Project funded by the State, which allowed for a number of ADA accessibility and life safety improvements to historic structures within the Historic District. The project had an overall budget of $1.6 million and addressed more than 35 BEST FESTIVAL IN recommended issues significantly ahead of its five-year required completion date.SOUTHEAST The Jekyll Island THE historic preservation team also completed many new or existing renovation projects, the& —Southeastincluding Festival restoration and reinstallation of Mistletoe Cottage’s sunroom ceiling. Through from the Eventsfunding Association Jekyll Island Authority and Friends of Historic Jekyll Island, the original paper ceiling tiles and bamboo grid underwent a removal, digital reproduction, and reinstallation process, alongside restoration of the original paint color of the room’s walls. Thanks to the assistance of many volunteers, visitors to the island also had the opportunity for the first time in July to experience daily public tours through Hollybourne Cottage, which is now maintained in a permanent state of restoration for preservation education.

Where We ’re G oing DEDICATED TO CONTINUED INVESTMENT IN JEKYLL ISLAND’S FUTURE

RE V I TA LIZ AT ION With the ongoing construction and development of the dual-branded Courtyard and Residence Inn by Marriott, the island’s newest hotel property is the latest project underway from the island’s original revitalization plans. The new property will expand the island’s family, extended stay, and business travel lodging options. The 209-room hotel sits on 5.8 acres of previously developed oceanfront property and will remain 100 rooms below peak historic hotel room capacity numbers for the island.

C A MP G ROUND E X PA NSION Even as the largest state-owned campground, the Jekyll Island Campground maintains the secondhighest occupancy rating of all other State-run campgrounds. Occupancy is consistently above 70 percent and more than 90 percent during peak camping season. In 2020, the Jekyll Island Authority continued steps toward a campground expansion through a reclassification and engineering proposal for 12 acres of land, to accommodate the growing demand for more campground sites and facilities. With state support, the expansion would accommodate the addition of 54 new pullthrough campsites. Facility enhancements would also include a new campground store, of fice, and laundry services, as well as four new bathhouses with 16 additional ADA-compliant shower units. The economic return of these new campsites will allow the Authority to continue supporting and maintaining non-revenue generating assets and facilities for years to come.

PUBLIC S A FE T Y C OMPLE X In 2020, the Jekyll Island Authority accomplished a land reclassification for a new public safety facility to increase ef ficiencies and ef fectiveness for safety needs. The JIA also approved $75,000 in capital project funding to begin the architectural and engineering design phases for the new complex, with a goal of receiving future state funding to begin construction. The facility would merge the Jekyll Island Fire Department and EMS with the Georgia State Patrol Post to place both resources together. The new complex would be located within 1.5 miles of the majority of the island’s day-to-day commercial operations to decrease response times. The future facility would also become a satellite Emergency Operations Center for local response and supporting GEMA and Glynn County, as needed. The new public safety complex would also be designed to accommodate a ladder truck for essential operations, leading to a future improvement in the public safety ISO rating and a decrease in insurance premiums for residents and businesses on the island.

Where We ’re Going PROTECTING AND MANAGING THE NATURAL RESOURCES OF JEKYLL ISLAND

GOLF M A S T ER PL A N Over the last year, the Jekyll Island Authority has been focused on developing a Golf Course Master Plan to provide direction for the future success of golf on Jekyll Island. Recently completed, the Golf Course Master Plan aimed to evaluate and recommend solutions for all of the courses including current turf conditions, modern-day trends, operational budgets, economic performance, conservation, and recreation and educational opportunities. Through multiple iterations and public input, and a National Golf Foundation review, the proposed Jekyll Island Golf Master Plan provides an overall direction and identifies potential opportunities for the Jekyll Island Golf Club to become financially sustainable. While the plan will serve as a blueprint for the future, the Jekyll Island Authority will continue evaluating the recommendations outlined through working sessions with the board and further public input to ensure the result can serve both returning and new visitors with an enhanced golf experience.

C ONSER VAT ION PL A N The last several years have seen an advancement in the conservation and preservation of the Island’s natural communities and wildlife. One of the most significant actions has been the institution of a dedicated team to lead the Authority’s conservation mission and to uphold conservation as a priority. In 2020, the Jekyll Island Conservation Department worked closely with an advisory board, consultants, and the public, to develop and update the Jekyll Island Conservation plan from its 2011 iteration. The new plan further addresses concerns and management of conservation priorities including sustainability, wildlife monitoring and research, land management, and nature-based outdoor education and recreation opportunities. As the Authority moves ahead in this new decade, the new plan reestablishes Jekyll’s conservation values and provides the framework for pursuing and prioritizing the JIA’s commitment to carefully balance the ecological and economic vitality of the island.

Although 2020 was a challenging year, the Jekyll Island Foundation (JIF) celebrated multiple accomplishments, thanks to the commitment and contributions of investors, members, and the JIF Board. Funding from the Foundation supported preservation and restoration enhancements to Hollybourne Cottage and assisted with support for the GA Sea Grant/ Georgia Audubon Fellowship program. Additionally, monies were provided for ongoing research of bobcat reproduction and tracking of the eastern diamondback rattlesnake by the Authority’s Conservation Department. The Foundation was also pleased to introduce new tribute gift offerings, including tiered pricing and intuitive maps for donor use, while the membership program underwent a creative refresh to include new membership benefits. The Foundation’s most notable accomplishment included months of preparations for the January 2021 launch of a Corporate Sponsorship Program, including a robust benefits package, and cohesive marketing assets to assist in promoting this new strategic program. The program successfully launched with seven founding corporate sponsors on board.
