Beach Erosion <br />J/ <br />'J AUG 1975 ' <br />RECEIVED T,, <br />40 <br />stalols arae ti <br />En ��'A£sZ9Zel <br />B August 15, 1975 <br />We have reviewed the local history on the above subject, in- <br />cluding the Resolution which you approved on June 27, 1975. We <br />notice that you have endorsed the Army Corps of Engineers sand - <br />fill proposal and committed the County to fund its share with- <br />out limitation on amount or time. There have been indications <br />that the initial and continuing cost of such a program might <br />-run into several millions of dollars and more. <br />• In the meantime, we have been apprised of an alternate ap- <br />proach involving the use of steel -reinforced concrete "jacks" <br />which is supposed to involve an initial cost considerably less <br />than the above and which can be placed in use much sooner. <br />.We understand that this approach was not included in the <br />recommendations of the Corps of Engineers earlier this year. How- <br />ever, we also understand that you have scheduled the local <br />proponent of this jacks system, Mr. Roger Jeeves, to present <br />the advantages of this system to you on Wednesday, August 20. <br />We urge you to assess his presentation in the light of your <br />VBCA ...
