The Brevard County Solid Waste Management Department is requesting your help by participating in a brief survey related to curbside recycling. This survey is part of a Lean Six Sigma project […]
We collected well over 100,000 lbs of dead fish over the 2 weeks we were dealing with the Red Tide consequences, and we hope that we won’t have to in the future. KBB appreciates all the help and support from the county and community. We can’t thank our volunteers enough for lending us their time and strength for this tough job!

Keep Brevard Beautiful’s (KBB) South Action Team presented the “We Noticed” Beautification Award to the newly developed Sawgrass Lakes in West Melbourne on September 12. This unique subdivision includes 973 single family homes and creates a one-of-a-kind atmosphere. The neighborhood includes amenities for homeowners such as a two-story water slide and pool area, pavilions, playground, tennis courts, meeting hall, poker room and more. Builders D. R. Horton strived for a resort-style area to provide services to the community and helped design the facilities and landscaping to ensure the subdivision was formed so no wetland mitigation was needed, embracing the natural surrounding area. Susan Hall was integral in designing the landscaping around the facility, including mulched beds and Florida-friendly plants and natives to avoid fertilizers and watering. The extra steps taken can be seen from the main entrance way as onlookers observe the huge stormwater ponds with fountains before turning into the housing area.
Attending the “We Noticed” presentation were City of West Melbourne Mayor Hal Rose, Deputy Mayor Pat Bentley and Councilman John Dittmore; Sawgrass Lakes Community Association representatives; D. R. Horton representatives; KBB staff; and South Action Team trustees.
The South Action Team recognizes property- and business-owners throughout the southern part of Brevard County year-round for their efforts to beautify the area and environmentally improve their landscaping. The program has been in operation since the 1990’s and has recognized dozens of properties throughout the County.
