Screwed is screwed, and the residents and visitors have all been 'screwed blue and tatooed', let down by the very government that is supposed to protect them, but what else is new.
Money talks and obviously it talked to the right people. Aside: What's the point in having meetings when they will just do what they want anyway and pretend to be 'confused'?
If it bothers you too much, pick another spot to live (and make a pile via caveat emptor once they put the thin layer of white sand to cover it), or pick a different spot to vacation, that has not been spoiled.
The water may get a little muddy from time to time, as the particulates (what makes the dirt brown) wash down with a lot of rainfall (some of which has been happening already from the yellow-brownish stains near the water in the picture), but the water won't change color.
Combatting dune slump is only required when buildings have been built on the first-line dune complex, and so you are eventually going to get ugly beaches, either from dark fill sand used to shore up crumbling structures or true 'beach houses' when they fall in as the dune slumps back down from vertical. BTW, the dune will only be stable if they fill it back to the pre-existing shape - this is all just wasted effort anyway.
Money has always talked in south walton, and it probably will continue to do so for whatever time we have left.
agggg - mb451? I'm in some sort of time warp! Actually, I bet it's because I'm on the ancient laptop since we're visiting family in Indianapolis! (Hi Ya'll!)
