OM, was it at the Ft Panic access, the one with the big parking lot?
which direction were the priv property signs, east or west of that access?
The problem is that with all things the bad of a few affects everyone.
Organicmama was doing a good thing and being respectful of the beach and not bothering anyone, as stated, enhancing the beauty of the area with picking up litter and having children playing.
However just as you have her being respectful you have others that are not. They litter, they come to to the beach front property and throw up, urinate or worse and get into homeowners pools. I have seen this behavior in person at friends who have homes affected.
I am sure this behavior is not exhibited by anyone that will read this; but it happens and then innocents such as OM and her children suffer for it.
It is sad and have no idea what the answer is.
Your are totally right. I agree wholeheartedly. It irritates me to no end seeing people trash the beach or private property. I also think, "Didn't their parents raise them better than that???"
My thought about the beaches & ownership is that I would assume, if I bought property on the beach, I would naturally be sharing it with those who come to the beach. Then, instead of privatizing it, I would seek to inform people about respecting the beauty of the beach, instead of littering, etc. Putting up a sign to say "Keep off" or "Private Property" on the beach wouldn't cross my mind. A driveway, pool or a yard is a totally different matter.
That is very interesting. I may have to take a look-see. Those lots to the immediate east do not appear to be platted to the Mean High Water Mark.East of it.
Totally agree, such a shame that others do not know proper behavior.
