AVALON’S “BACKPASSING” project is underway, as dump trucks move beach sand from the 33rd-38th Street beaches to replenish north end beaches. Every few moments a dump truck loaded with beach sand moves northward, passed by an empty dump truck moving southward. Work continues seven days a week, subject to the tide cycle. The project is expected to be completed in advance of the summer season, and is currently ahead of schedule. In addition to enhancing protection for north end homes, the newly widened beaches will provide more room for beach goers to enjoy during the summer.
THE BOROUGH OF STONE HARBOR received the Cape May County Annual Conservation Award for its efforts in restoring the gardens in the Stone Harbor Bird Sanctuary, and those around the pump house at 114th Street & Third Avenue. Native plants requiring little water were used, and they’ll help meet the needs of species living in and around the area.
