Shoreline stabilization criteria will follow Policy 10.5 of the Conservation Element. <br />Policy 4.6: Indian River County shall protect and preserve natural beach and dune systems by adopting the specific <br />criteria for shoreline stabilization within the unincorporated portion of Indian River County and within the municipal limits of <br />the city of Vero Beach, as outlined in Policy 10.5 of the Conservation Element. [Consolidated with 4.3] <br />Policy 4.9: County staff will attend meetings held by the Sebastian Inlet Tax District and will participate in evaluating <br />technical studies prepared by the District. <br />Policy 4.10: The cCounty shall continue to monitor the Prefabricated Erosion Prevention (PEP) reef to evaluate the <br />effects of the reef on shoreline stabilization. <br />Policy 4.11: The cCounty shall continue to study alternatives to fund shoreline stabilization for the areas of critical <br />erosion identified in the 2008 2022 Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s Critically Eroded Beaches in Florida <br />report. <br />NEW Policy: The cCounty shall coordinate with all state and federal agencies in the funding and implementing of beach <br />stabilization projects. [Moved from Objective 10] <br />NEW Policy: Indian River County shall permit the utilization of local funds for shoreline stabilization and beach <br />renourishment projects. Priority shall be given to those projects which demonstrate the best benefit-cost ratio while <br />having the least impact to the offshore reef, and the nearshore beach and dune ecological communities. [Moved from <br />Objective 10] <br />Objective 5: Through 2030 2040, there will be no expansion of infrastructure within the Coastal High Hazard Area <br />(CHHA) other than that which is deemed necessary to maintain existing levels-of-service. <br />PAGE 120
