Basin 1 Infrastructure Improvements

The Town of Melbourne Beach will soon begin work on the Basin 1 Stormwater Improvement Project. This important infrastructure project is part of the Town’s ongoing efforts to enhance stormwater management, reduce flooding, and improve overall water quality within our community.

 Construction is expected to begin in the coming weeks and will take place in the Basin 1 area (see map below). Residents may notice temporary construction activity, traffic adjustments, and equipment in the area during the project period.

 We appreciate your patience and cooperation as these improvements are made. Every effort will be taken to minimize inconvenience and maintain access for residents throughout construction.

 For questions or additional information, please contact Town Hall at (321) 724-5860 or visit this page for updates.

 Thank you for your understanding and support as we continue to invest in our community’s infrastructure.

Vulnerability Assessment

Applied Ecology, Inc. in partnership with Brevard County is conducting a Vulnerability Assessment (VA) to identify current and future risks of climate change impacts. The VA is funded by a FDEP Resilient Florida Planning Grant and will assist the Town in meeting eligibility requirements for a FDEP Resilient Florida Implementation Grant. The final report will assist the Town in prioritizing Capital Improvement Projects.
