Two Navarre Beach projects made the cut last week as Governor Rick Scott announced projects proposed in the third round of Natural Resource Damage Assessment (NRDA) funding. The early restoration dollars fund projects related to damages resulting from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
An investment group recently announced plans to build Waterstone at Navarre, a $30 million four-story apartment complex with a potential 250 units at the intersection of Joybrook Road and U.S. Highway 98.
A busy intersection along U.S. 98 and Navarre Park is set to get a pedestrian overpass earlier than leaders had expected. The proposed $2.48 million walkover could be constructed on U.S. 98 near the Navarre Beach bridge in 2018.
Electric vehicle owners now have a place on Navarre Beach to charge their battery. Juana’s Pagodas has purchased a Blink electric car charging station, which is located just outside the restaurant.
The unresolved murder of a Navarre man in his front yard still has more questions than answers, and has a grieving family finding it difficult to move forward.
A Navarre woman was arrested for petit theft, dealing in stolen property and fraud when she attempted to return merchandise and get a refund for items she had stolen.
A woman sustained minor injuries just after 11 p.m. Friday night after her residence at 7505 Blackjack Circle caught fire from suspected unattended candles. Marva Smith, owner of the mobile home off of East Bay Boulevard, was home with her two pets when the blaze started.
