It is anticipated that greater recreational usage will <br />be made of the former Seabreeze Sailing Club property, <br />than is now being made of that portion of Little Cedar <br />Bayou Park situated east of Old Highway 146. <br /> <br />7. The appraised fair market value of the Seabreeze Sailing <br />Club property is $795,000.00, which is far greater than <br />the appraised fair market value of that portion of Little <br />Cedar Bayou Park situated east of Old Highway 146, which <br />was appraised at $385,000.00. <br /> <br />8.
