In an effort to present a more natural look to the beachfront, the new owner at Casa Coyote had the old sea wall torn out and before long, the new
beach will begin to form from the tides and waves. It is an interesting procedure to watch. Almost as exciting as watching paint dry...almost.
The old wall.
Demolition time:
Kinda looks like the 'Ugly Duckling' right now, but after a couple weeks it should start to look like a 'Swan' Beach..and I can show you when that
happens, okay?
Just think. Wow!!.what a treat you have in store, eh? So much excitement on this Nomad thread, it's hard to keep from jumping up and down, right??

Roger,
Gosh, that will be a real change for the bay. Is there an attempt to remove the sea wall in total in fornt of the older houses? Perhaps is the an
attempt to satisfy the most recent "profepa" issue.?
Thanks,

Isn't there a chance the removal of the seawall could cause more, not less sand erosion?Pompano - 2-22-2012 at 11:35 AM

Hola neighbor, Yes...the removal will also serve to smooth over the issues with Profepa, so it serves both purposes well. Seems like those guys never
give up, right? Even after I showed them grandfathered rights... go figure?

Whoosh, there is always a chance of 'anything happening', but in this case the configuration of the futue beach will most certainly look the same as
in the above photos of the adjacent beach to the north..which is just a continued shallow sloping beach. I dont think Wind and Tides are plotting
schemes...but are carring out nature's regular plan.
But Hey, life is a crap shoot at best...the dice are rolling now.GLNaeve - 2-22-2012 at 11:46 AM
Roger,
Thanks for the information. Long story short, Casa Rae has two citations at $15,000.00 USD each. Yes, even with all the "grandfather clauses."
Perhaps all the home owner's should participate with removal and costs?
Thanks again.
