DMK is proud to have helped complete the family-friendly addition to this park. According to the Florida Department of Veterans' Affairs (FDVA), Florida is ranked third in terms of the highest veteran population. Charlotte County alone has almost 200,00 among its population. It's a privilege to have been part of the project and bring more veteran recognition and appreciation to our community.

Bayfront Park, Longboat Key
On this Park project, DMK was requested by the architectural team to provide all services related to land surveying, site planning, stormwater management, seawall and dock permitting, utility designs and permitting, assistance with FDEP permitting for activities seaward of the Coastal Construction Control Line and general coordination with the Architectural and Planning group charged with obtaining public and local input.
Coastal engineering, design, and permitting by DMK included FDEP ERP permitting for docks, kayak launch, and boardwalks, as well as FDEP Coastal Construction Control Line permitting for emergency vehicular access to the beach, pedestrian access ramp, and observation deck.
