Project Information

The Junior Lifeguard Facility Rebuild Project will build a one-story modular building with a second level viewing deck, stingray response room, lockers, and office on the beach near Claremont Place, adjacent to the existing launch ramp and public restroom. The project also includes construction of a new foundation, new utilities, and demolition of the existing lifeguard building.
