Bolivar Beach Access Improvement Phase I

Summary

Projects funds will be used to design and complete the permitting for several amenities at a Bolivar Beach Park. The amenities include: a dune walkover, one mile of degraded granite trail, a permanent ADA-compliant restroom, an educational kiosk, and six in-ground picnic tables with removable shade structures. The park amenities will be hurricane ready. The restroom will meet the design standards for the gulf-facing location and the removable shade structures will be designed to withstand the everyday wind coming off the Gulf and will be removed if Galveston County is within the path of a projected storm. The Subrecipient will ensure the educational kiosk includes information on native wildlife and fish, ways to protect the Gulf of Mexico waters, and endangered species and what to do if sighted
