To the Editor:
As the beach replenishment project nears its end, we have miles of faux engineered dunes of coarse sand filled with sharp shell pieces. We have steep slopes that are difficult for the elderly and young families, and long distances from the dune to the water’s edge. We have an elevated beach where it is no longer possible to see children play in the surf. We have dangerous, steep slopes in the water and waves crashing in the wading area.
Rather than typical shore dune fencing on the walkways, we now have split rail fencing more typical of inland areas.
