Sebastian Getting $500,000 Grant For Waterfront

The City of Sebastian is taking steps to restore its working waterfront, seeking a $500,000 grant from the Florida Division of Historical Resources. Sebastian aims to match the funding, totaling $1 million for the project. While the grant is primarily for planning and engineering, Sebastian Mayor Ed Dodd says he hopes it will include work on the deteriorating Hurricane Harbor building. The project he says, underscores Sebastian’s commitment to preserving its historic sites and supporting local fishing activities.
