Who We Are

Our Pride

More than five decades of protecting the character and quality of life at Vanderbilt Beach.

VBRA is proud of its contributions to preserving the character of Vanderbilt Beach and the quality of life for its residents, both today and over the past several decades. We are grateful to work alongside other fine local organizations on projects of mutual interest, including:

Beach re-nourishment and maintenance
Water quality testing in Vanderbilt Lagoon and Water Turkey Bay
Waterway dredging and improvements
Beautification of Vanderbilt Drive
Beautification of Gulf Shore Drive
Traffic calming, traffic lights, and stop signs
Road, bridge, and walkway improvements
Beach access, parking, and restrooms at Bluebill Avenue
More and better parks and green space
No wake and idle speed zones in our waterways
Improved entry signs and landscaped entry statements
Truck weight limits and speed limits on local roads
Removal of exotic vegetation
Noise ordinances
Code and permitting enforcement support

We are proud, too, of the strong working relationships we have built with elected officials and county staff. Those relationships help us get residents' needs and concerns addressed. Our residents and board members serve on important committees and take an active part in the President's Council and the Estuary Conservation Association, among many other groups, and we work cooperatively with the boards of other local associations.
