Ok, so their contract says they have to dump even when their is no beach to put sand on from the tide and waves. Makes sense as to why they were doing it, but not as to why someone mandated that. Lol

Let's not just talk about it, it was the county commissioners and state legislators (Bill Posey) who allowed this project to get funded. The county gets money for 'monitoring' this project which pays salaries.

To effect change, we need to vote them out in November and put in leaders who don't cater to the dredge lobby. And meanwhile, write letters to the Florida Today lamenting this waste of taxpayer money.

"without it we would be relocating A1A before ya knew it."

I'd sign up for that. relocate A1A. Take the condos off the beach. Simple solution.

Beaches just north of the pier in Vero Beach actually gained sand elevation in the past 2 days. 

Wish I had a drone.  I suspect a big streamer of sand has been deposited south of Vero's Riomar Reef.  Doesn't look like South Beach has lost anything.

 I seriously doubt Satelitte beach could afford the loss of property tax. I know the residents wouldn't want to see the increase if they lost all those condo's. Rumor has it Sateliite is in some pretty deep doo doo with their sewage system.

 

 It is pretty cool how mother nature can strip away man's work in a blink of an eye. Some beaches lose sand some gain. Who knows maybe if we just left alone it would be fine.

 

Sand is a pretty good representation of government spending as a whole.

 

Work started here at Perkins today. Sad 

This is like the 5-6th time that you brought up someone saying you might have been a NSR thread hero. You value his opinion that much do you? lmao

^ I too, reserve the right to poke holes and make fun of things I find silly, and stupid forum members who don't pay attention. GFY

You can't stay away. Zzzzz

Yup.....construction worker even said it's nuts they were dumping sand during swell but if they didn't all the dunes would be gone and condos gone.

-------------------------

Waiting for waves is ok......most people spend their lives waiting for nothing.

act all surprised, and like this don't happen every few years....SMDH

Noticed the other day at Perk that they were mostly women on the jobsite, 3 dumptruck drivers and a foreman. Wonder if it's an eeoc or minority awarded contract.

Where is Playalinda?

I noticed that too, a lady in a big terex dump truck almost ran me over at RC's LOL

I troll 2L.com to be a better person in real life

Seem like the developers of the pair of 9 (?) Story condos saw obvious problems with upcoming sales unless there was some sand in front..

Did they get the ball rolling? greased someone's palms? favors?

Also noticed a couple new faces at LungRX checking it out - like 'inspection time' inside & out.. Hmmmm... New players?

When will they put in our new access path?

-------------------------
There are NO white people at all in the Bible... take all the time you need with that...
Please stop feeding the trolls - they will go away if you do...

At Sat. Beach 60% of the sand was gone in one day, head-high swell took it all. $$

Deep south Brevard beaches got a surprising dose of new dredge fill (thought it was only going south to Boardwalk or thereabouts~) and the thing that really pisses us off is (the fact it's being done at all is secondary at the moment to this) whoever the spreader operator was at our access, was either instructed to or took it upon hisdamnsef (i guess thinking it'll look nice or it's deemed nessasary whateverthef---) to instead of grading a parallel edge up along the dune growth N/S as (ie: snowplowing rural roads), made occasional mind you, indents following the slightest opening in the dune line ie: access path's, small natural recessions of the vegetation with TOTAL DISREGARD FOR THE SEAOATS/CREEPING VINES, COVERING I'D SAY,, THE FRONT 15% OF THE VEGETATION!!!!! that we/they are protecting to protect us from eroding the dunes. What the hol- flying --c-?! I've not spoken out either way to the issue much until this-- It's like telling everybody you're turn'in left then immediately turn ------- RIGHT-

 

 

I don't even feel better spewing-

 

darn, sucks 

 

oh well, gone surf'in now~

John Stone, Sat Bch, Bldg Dept told me over a year ago the access path would be 25 feet wide and granted to the city at C.O. of the twin towers of hell. I talked to him a month ago and it turned into 12 feet wide! Not sure what happened there. So it will be 2019 when/if it happens. The Gov signed into legislation the ability for Condos/beachfront owners to prevent us from crossing the beach in front of them and I'm sure the twin towers of hell will be first in line to enforce.

I think I saw that yesterday near Juan Ponce De leon park?
