OLD BUSINESS
a.
Discussion and Review of Site Walk. Mr. Harran reported he and Mr. Callahan walked 
Jordan Cove. They visited a house on Shore Road. A Master Gardener worked extensively in 
that area. She wanted the area dredged and was told it cannot be done. The state will not 
allow dredging. 
He showed Commission members a map of the area and photos of work that was 
completed in early 2005. Individuals were coming in with small boats with motors and 
children. There was 40’ long rebar above the water line that rusted. We requested that a 
team come in to cut the pilings. We were concerned with safety. We then had to remove 
the debris. The piping plover were mating and the work was held up for a season. Mr. 
Callahan stated we applied to the License Plate Fund and they helped us to pay for the work.
