Currituck County Commissioners considering eliminating use of sandbags and beach push options on Beaches

At a recent Board of Commissioners meeting, the Commissioners tabled a discussion until a later work session regarding prohibiting the use of sandbags and/or a beach push as a means of protecting beach front property in Currituck County. This could have a major impact on available options for homeowners if major storm cause significant damage to frontal dunes. Here are the pdf documents (starting pg 42) from the agenda package at the March 15th meeting. You can also watch the video of that discussion which was initiated by staff originally.
