Mission: To contribute to the quality of life in Brevard County by providing leisure activities reflecting the interest and values of its citizens and visitors.

BCC Home > Parks & Recreation Referendum Projects

In 2000, Brevard County voters approved bond referendums that provided funding for construction or improvement of over 50 county parks in North Brevard, Merritt Island, and South Brevard. Citizen Committees and Advisory Boards identified community recreational needs. These projects were submitted by the Recreation Advisory Boards to the Board of County Commissioners to be included in the referendum. While some projects are as simple as improved playground equipment, other projects are of a regional nature requiring extensive community planning, permitting and land acquisition.

Project Elements Included

Renovations to aging facilities
Youth sports facilities
Playgrounds
Improvements to waterfront parks
Boat Launch facilities
Community Centers
Senior Center improvements
Improvements to provide universal accessibility as required by the American
Disabilities Act

In November 2006, the Board of County Commissioners provided taxpayers the opportunity to vote on issuing additional bonds. The voters approved the additional bonds and there will be no tax rate increase because the millage previously approved generates enough revenue to repay both sets of bonds.
