Celebrating Seagrass Village of Port Orange
Published: May 25, 2023
Hurricane Ian finally behind the Florida east-coast community.
Last September, Hurricane Ian wreaked havoc along the west coast of Florida while making landfall as a Category 4 storm. As the storm crossed the Sunshine State, it slowed over Florida's east coast, all the while dumping a historic amount of rain.
Seagrass Village of Port Orange felt Ian's wrath and had a substantial amount of water enter the community. So much so that the first floor had flood damage. Within hours of the storm's passing, the situation was assessed and a repair plan was enacted.
After months of restoration work and supply chain delays, today a celebration was had — a re-grand opening of sorts. There was food and drink, and even the city's mayor was on hand to celebrate.
"Today is a great day for us," Seagrass Village of Port Orange's Executive Director Sandra Davis said. "We can officially say Ian is behind us."
