The commercial area of Seaside will remain closed on Sunday, October 11th.

We are continuing to wait for power restoration and want to allow everyone to focus on themselves, their families, and their property.

Once power is restored and conditions allow, we will work with our merchants to reopen businesses safely and responsibly.

We will continue to share updates as more information becomes available.
