Brevard voters approved a ten-year, half-cent sales tax to help bring back the health of our Lagoon.
Brevard County’s Save Our Lagoon Project Plan, developed by scientists and the Brevard Natural Resources Management Department, allocates the roughly $40 million dollars annually to projects that remove existing pollutants, prevent new pollutants from entering the waterway or restore water quality. Most projects are matched by funds from the cities managing them, such as septic system removals, stormwater upgrades and muck removal.
