Henderson Beach Plan Cleared by State for 2 Million Development
The Florida Department of Natural Resources approves its Henderson Beach State Recreation Area development plan with a $2 million budget. Modifications shift the entry road and station south of the original site to ease traffic, and a 50 cent admission will be charged. The 208 acre park will be fenced and bidding for construction could begin by year end with completion planned for Spring 1986.
