THE SHORELINE PROJECT FOR BAHAI IS FINISHED
I met with Goody Hill and the news isn’t good. They have gone as far as they can and the shoreline project is finished. The sand is so wet they can’t bring in equipment without it sinking. There was enough sand already at the site to finish if it could have been cut in as planned. The further down Bahia you go the wetter the sand. The plan was to have the sand slope, much like a beach to allow the waves, (yes, the pond has waves) to roll up gently when the wind blows.
We hope we can hold down the sand with jute matting and plants with sturdy roots.
We thank Goody Hill for all the time and effort they put into our community. I know they are as disappointed as we are that this project wasn’t finished as planned.
Dr. Jesien, Maryland Coastal Bays Program, walked the site and said to plant, this project was finished. I presented this to the Executive Board of the Montego Bay Civic Association; they support the planting and agreed that the project is finished.
Look at the picture above it was taken yesterday morning. If everyone would help this could be the most beautiful place in Ocean City. That saying, “Ask not “ doesn’t just apply to large government, it applies to everything. There is something you can do. Be a pond keeper.
