APPLICATION SEEKING FUNDS TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE
WORKING WATERFRONT SHORELINE AND PARKING LOCATED AT
FISHERMAN'S LANDING SEBASTIAN, PROVIDING FOR SEVERABILITY;
PROVIDING FOR CONFLICT; AND PROVIDING FOR AN EFFECTIVE DATE.
WHEREAS, the City of Sebastian is interested in carrying out the following described
project for the enjoyment of the citizenry of the City of Sebastian, Indian River County
and the State of Florida:
Project Title: Working Waterfront Shoreline & Parking Improvement
Total Estimated Cost: $ 270,000.00
Brief Description of Project: The site is located at 1532 and 1540 Indian River
Drive in the City of Sebastian and consists of a historic Working Waterfront. The
project will construct shoreline protection to protect the historic building along the
Working Waterfront shoreline and also complete the Phase 2A portion of the
project previously presented but not funded for stabilizing the public parking lot.
The proposed shoreline protection project will extend over 200 linear feet along
the shoreline of the Indian River Lagoon. Since the historic seawall no longer
provides protection, the historic building is exposed to reoccurring impacts from
storm water waves and water damage. The shoreline protection and stabilized
public parking lot will provide the protective benefit to the Working Waterfront and
the Indian River Lagoon. The project site is within the City's boundaries and
within the City's submerged land lease. No land acquisition is required. In
addition, the City has obtained the required permits from ACOE and FDEP for
the construction of a linear seawall and the paving of the public parking lot. This
project is considered the third phase of the Working Waterfront Improvements
which has received past funding from FIND for Phase 1, 2 and 2A.
AND, Florida Inland Navigation District financial assistance is required for the program
mentioned above,
NOW THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City of Sebastian that the project described
above be authorized,
AND, be it further resolved that said City of Sebastian, make application to the Florida
Inland Navigation District in the amount of $135,000, which is 50% of the actual cost of the
project on behalf of said City of Sebastian,
AND, be it further resolved by the City of Sebastian that it certifies to the following:
1. That it will accept the terms and conditions set forth in FIND Rule 666-2
F.A.C. and which will be a part of the Project Agreement for any assistance
awarded under the attached proposal.
2. That it is in complete accord with the attached proposal and that it will carry
out the Program in the manner described in the proposal and any plans and
specifications attached thereto unless prior approval for any change has been
received from the District.
3. That it has the ability and intention to finance its share of the cost of the
project and that the project will be operated and maintained at the expense of
said City of Sebastian for public use.
4. That it will not discriminate against any person on the basis of race, color or
national origin in the use of any property or facility acquired or developed
pursuant to this proposal, and shall comply with the terms and intent of the Title
VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, P. L. 88-352 (1964) and design and construct
all facilities to comply fully with statutes relating to accessibility by persons with
disabilities as well as other federal, state and local laws, rules and requirements.
5. That it will maintain adequate financial records on the proposed project to
substantiate claims for reimbursement.
6. That it will make available to FIND if requested, a post -audit of expenses
incurred on the project prior to, or in conjunction with, request for the final 10% of

legally adopted by the Sebastian City Council at a legal meeting held on this 14th day of
February, 2018.
