Sand Replinishment Task Force update
Todd received the following email from Stephen Van Essendelft, P.E. who is in the Office of Beach Mangement in reference to the process of getting sand for the beaches east of the Lesner Bridge.
An excerpt:
If the property owners agree with the final documents, we are on to recordation. We have been in contact with Lynnhaven Beach and hope to meet with them in the near future.
Hi Todd,
Our legal department is currently preparing the final easement documents for 7 properties from Jade street to and including Westminster Canterbury, with the exception of Lynnhaven Beach Condos. When complete, I will start another round of meetings to deliver these packages. If the property owners agree with the final documents, we are on to recordation. We have been in contact with Lynnhaven Beach and hope to meet with them in the near future.
West of Jade street, except Point Chesapeake (Duck Inn), we have faced general disinterest. Two of these properties have not made a final decision.
From Casa Del Playa east - most of this stretch is documented as public beach. We are working with Seagate, Mariner’s Mark, and the Virginia Beach Resort and had the opportunity to meet with Mariner’s Mark (Nov 16, 2005) and Seagate (last night). Both of these communities seemed interested to hear the program details and how it specifically affects their property. We are still hoping to arrange a meeting with the Virginia Beach Resort.
If you need additional information, please let me know.
