10) Environmental - FDEP Grant Agreement No. 23SR1-A3 for the Navarre Beach Re-nourishment Project

Commission Regular Meeting · 2026-04-23 · agenda_item

Santa Rosa County is seeking approval to execute an amendment to a grant agreement with the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (FDEP) for the Navarre Beach Re-nourishment Project. This amendment, Grant Agreement No. 23SR1-A3, involves updates to the project's work plan. The project is currently under review, with authorization sought for the chairman to sign all related documents. This project will likely involve significant site preparation, including beach and dune restoration, potentially requiring services such as heavy equipment operation, grading, and specialized coastal engineering. Future phases could include material delivery and placement, and final landscaping or revegetation efforts. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in areas like site preparation, heavy construction, and material supply could find opportunities by engaging early, before final plans and permits are established.
