Full Public Notice   Project Plans

The applicant proposes to reclaim, by filling, a portion of the property that appears to have been lost to erosion over the years prior to its acquisition.  A total of 0.879-acre (14,880 cubic yards of sand; 2,100 cubic yards of that will be below the mean high tide line) of jurisdictional area would be involved in this project and some of that area would be enhanced by creating a stone breakwater structure that would act to reduce energy created by wave action which currently adversely affects existing seagrass and oyster habitat onsite.  A 0.081-acre area of existing upland would be scraped down to create low marsh habitat.  A total of 54 condominium units would be constructed on the site utilizing both existing uplands and the minimal amount of area needing to be reclaimed.
