Sudsy Posted February 12, 2019 Report Share Posted February 12, 2019 (edited) EDIT - Thursday 12:22 - The weasels who are owned by the lobbys have added amendments we do not agree with. Let your representative know you agree with the new rules but WITHOUT the amendments (From a message From the Littoral Society who are there now) The amendment proposal narrows when the DEP must assess and require additional public access, making it discretionary in significant instances. It narrows the Department’s role in ensuring that public monies are spent consistent with the public trust doctrine. It undermines the agreed upon policy of requiring additional or new access when there is a change in use along the waterfront or a change in the footprint of existing development, and it creates loopholes that would allow significant development to be exempted from providing public access, particularly along urban waterfronts. Call, e-mail.......... tell them to back Assembly Bill A.4221 and Senate Bill S.1074 !!!! These are the bills that will protect public access to tidal waterfronts for bathing, swimming, fishing, and other shore-related activities. Without this being passed we have no way to fight the towns that are trying to limit our access.

Sudsy Posted February 13, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2019 I hope to God that more of you than just Bunkerhead have made the call !! If this doesn't pass then we can kiss at least half of the backwater spots goodbye and it will give many of the beachfront towns the impetus to make it even harder than it is to get down to the beach I just wanta play everyday despite small nagging injuries -- and go home to a woman who appreciates how full of crap I truly am. ~ Crash Davis Social Distancing since 1962 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
