Palm Beach County plans to replace the existing seawall at Ocean Inlet Park, located at 6990 N. Ocean Blvd in Boynton Beach. The current seawall is old, struggles to manage water, and causes drainage problems during storms. Improvements will involve removing the old seawall and building a new one at a higher level. The project also includes upgrading park facilities, restroom buildings, parking areas, site lighting, adding electric vehicle charging stations, reinstalling fishing spots, and replacing park shelters, while ensuring ADA accessibility. This project is currently under review, with staff recommending approval of a contract for architectural and engineering services. The work will likely involve site preparation, seawall construction, utility upgrades, paving, and landscaping. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas such as site preparation, concrete, electrical, and landscaping could find opportunities by engaging early before final bids and permits are set.
