Brevard's newest town, on ground settled a century earlier
Grant-Valkaria only became one official town in 2006 — Governor Jeb Bush signed the incorporation into law that June, and a local referendum passed with 72% turnout — making it the newest town in Brevard County, even though the surrounding area was settled as separate fishing communities as far back as the 1880s-1920s.
What that gap means for a reroof
Because Grant-Valkaria's own local building-permit history only goes back to 2006, older properties on its larger rural-coastal lots may have been built under county rather than town oversight, and under whatever wind-code standard applied at that earlier time. A reroof here should confirm which code era a property was actually built under rather than assume the town's 2006 incorporation date applies.

Grant-Valkaria's code and permit history
Grant-Valkaria's own building-permit history starts in 2006, but many of its rural-coastal properties were built decades earlier under county rather than town oversight. Confirming which wind-code era applies to a given property is worth doing before quoting reroofing work.
