History

Ocean Breeze Trailer Park was established in 1938 north of Stuart, Florida, by Harry Hoke.

The Ocean Breeze Park town government was formed in 1960 when 142 property owners in Ocean Breeze Trailer Park voted to incorporate. Harry Hoke was elected as the town’s first mayor. Evans Crary, Sr., who guided the town through the legal procedure of incorporation, was appointed town attorney. At the time of its incorporation, the 65-acre park was said to be the largest privately owned trailer park in the United States. By referendum held December 18, 2012, the town changed its name to “Ocean Breeze”.

Dorothy Geeben, mayor from 2001 to 2010, was re-elected in 2004 at age 96, and was identified as the United States’ oldest mayor. Mayor Geeben died on January 11, 2010, at the age of 101 just short of her 102nd birthday. The current mayor is Karen M. Ostrand (2016–present).
