The City of Gulf Breeze will hold a public meeting on Monday, April 7, 2024, at 5:30 PM in the City Hall Council Chambers (1070 Shoreline Drive, Gulf Breeze, FL 32561) to discuss a proposed $17 Sewer Capital Improvement Fee.
This monthly flat fee, applicable to approximately 9,900 sewer customers, is intended to help fund the rehabilitation and expansion of the city’s Water Reclamation Facility. The existing facility, last expanded in 1984, is undergoing a major upgrade to increase capacity from 2 million gallons per day (MGD) to 3.5 MGD.
The City Council and Gulf Breeze Regional Water Board have carefully reviewed funding options. The Capital Improvement Fee (CIF) is designed to bridge the funding gap between available resources, including state loans, grants, and reserves, and the total project cost of $64 million. Over time, as development generates additional revenue, the fee is expected to decrease.
The City of Gulf Breeze is committed to responsible infrastructure planning and financial stability. Residents and stakeholders are encouraged to attend the public hearing to learn more and provide feedback.
