PLANNED IMPROVEMENTS TO BLIND CREEK BEACH
The TCN Board has been in close communication with our County officials, and we are pleased to share the following planned improvements to Blind Creek Beach. Please note, we have not been given any specific timelines for these improvements.
Road Improvements:
The timeline for the improvements is that the funds will be available on October 1, 2021. Estimates will be requested in September so that the County can move forward as soon as scheduling will allow. The County intends to secure estimates for both asphalt and asphalt milling with chip seal. After estimates are received, the County will proceed with the material that provides the best results for longevity considering the high public use. The total area to be improved will be dependent upon pricing and budget.
Bathrooms:
The bathroom building has been approved for purchase; as has the engineering to start the process of identifying an approved location for the building, where the utilities exist to connect to, how to best connect everything, and provide handicapped parking at the Restroom that has a handicapped walkway to the boardwalk. The Purchasing Department is currently working on the Work Authorization contract with the Engineering Firm. When that contract is completed the design work will begin.
Showers:
The County is considering a shower at the west side of the dune crossover. There will most likely be showers at the Restroom as well. The County will figure that into the design.
Handicapped access:
There will be an ADA parking spot at the restroom. There will also be a sidewalk that goes from the restroom to the dune crossing. The dune crossing as packed coquina is considered ADA compliant if it is maintained. There are no additional beach access improvements planned.
