Over five years after the Town of Gibraltar bought more land and built a new shower house with restroom facilities, you could see more positive improvements at Fish Creek Beach.
Town officials are seeking grants from the Door County Community Investment Fund for soft surface placement removed from the beach playground and for an extension of its sidewalk toward the water. The approval of both projects could pave the way for more handicap accessibility at the Fish Creek destination. The town also mentioned repairs for the Sunset Park wall as a potential target for grant funds.
Approximately $1 million will be available from the Door County Community Investment Fund, a collaboration between Destination Door County and the Door County Community Foundation. Municipalities are spending the next few meetings discussing the grant ahead of the application deadline on April 6th.
The Town of Gibraltar will discuss the grant applications, along with new ordinances concerning speed limits on Gibraltar Bluff Road and mobile vending, on February 1st at 7 p.m. at the Gibraltar Town Center.
