A Piece of Paradise in DeBary |
|
 |
On February 1 at the monthly Council meeting, DeBary Mayor Karen Chasez officially signed the closing documents for the City's purchase of Riverbend South AKA Alexander Island!
|
|
|
|
The DeBary City Council authorized the purchase of Alexander Island at a previous council meeting on December 7, 2022, with a unanimous vote. |
|
|
|
Located off of Ft. Florida Road, Alexander Island will be transformed into a passive park with public access to the river and eco-tourism activities including kayaking, fishing, biking, hiking, and birdwatching.
The park will have recreation areas in addition to a freshwater research and education facility run by the Aquatic Preserve Alliance of Central Florida. The research center, which will be the sole state-run freshwater research and teaching facility in Florida, will carry out nature surveys, river cleanup initiatives, environmental research, and educational initiatives.
