Franklin County park project approved for phase 5 of early restoration projects

A number of restoration projects in north Florida including a park project in Franklin County have been approved by The Deepwater Horizon Natural Resource Damage Assessment Trustees.
This is the 5th phase of early restoration projects designed to repair and enhance areas impacted by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.
Phase 5 includes four projects in the Florida Panhandle including the construction of a public park on a 7.3-acre of what used to the Island View campground east of Carrabelle.
The project will include restoring and improving the two existing piers at the site and building accessible boardwalk with decks that connect the piers.
There will also be shoreline access for paddle craft, a central plaza with an informational kiosk, a pervious concrete parking area for visitors, and a turn lane for park access.

Other projects in Phase 5 will be done in Escambia County and in the cities of Destin and Lynn Haven.
