Local lawmakers seek Congressional beach renourishment action

A bipartisan trio of state legislators hope to resolve a longstanding impasse between the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and property owners delaying the renourishment of critically eroded beaches.

Rep. Lindsay Cross (D-St. Petersburg), Rep. Kim Berfield (R-Clearwater) and Rep. Linda Chaney (R-St. Pete Beach) recently filed the House Memorial on shore protection. It urges their Congressional counterparts to enact legislation forcing the Corps to amend its overly broad and burdensome easement policy.
