Big Dock Plans Go Forward

Big Dock Plans Go Forward

Jim Hoy

Geology and structural engineering plans for reconstruction of Cedar Key's Big Dock have been completed. Mills Engineering Company, which is coordinating the reconstruction effort, has sent out requests for bids to seven firms, with a July 2, 2007 deadline for responses.

Phil Chancey of Mills Engineering told Cedar Key News that bids may come in higher than the $1,300,000 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) currently promised to Levy County.


If that happens, FEMA then will be asked to reconsider the original amount. The dock has been closed since late 2004 when storm damage made it unsafe. Levy County now owns the Big Dock and Dock Street as well. The City of Cedar Key has an agreement with Levy County to take ownership of the dock after it has been rebuilt.
