Project Update – October 2009

The feasibility report was completed in November 2007. A neighborhood contact requested that the project be revised with a smaller dredge footprint.  The revisions were completed in April 2008.

At a May 27, 2008 neighborhood meeting, two proposed dredge footprint designs and cost estimates were presented to property owners.

Following that meeting, a Project Unit Approval Petition was mailed to the 24 benefiting property owners. In order for the project to proceed, 67 percent of the property owners must sign, notarize and return this petition to the county.

The number of required petitions is 16. To date, one completed petition has been submitted.
