Update: our work to Protect the Public’s Right to Use the Dry Sand Beaches in St Lucie County.
We have completed the Survey phase. Results have been compiled and are being shared with the BOCC. We are also submitting 47 pages of Testimonials proving the public’s rights under the doctrine of Customary Use.
We are now asking the county to create an Ordinance which will protect both the rights of the public and the rights of beachfront property owners as pertains to the Dry Sand Beach Areas.
If you are interested in preventing future attempts by beachfront property owners to “privatize” the dry sand area in front of their homes, NOW is the time to email you County Commissioners.

If you too are concerned about overdevelopment of our remaining coastal natural resources, and the public's ability to access and enjoy these, please follow this page and stand with us. Our website explains how you can receive email updates on the progress of our struggle, and how you can make a donation to help with our legal costs. www.FortPierceShoresPreservation.com

A developer purchased 13 acres of our beachfront property for $7.1 million. Previously this property was essentially considered unbuildable because of court-affirmed restrictions. Now they are trying to develop this property in spite of the restrictions, and practically all of it is East of the CCCL. It seems as if environmental protection regulations can all be violated with the right permit applications! We are trying to prevent destruction of this Natural Treasure - because once it is gone, it is gone for good!

So, the residents of Fort Pierce Shores and all those who enjoy our pristine beachfront are standing up and saying, "Enough!"

Adjacent to the Fort Pierce Inlet State park, and the Atlantic Ocean, we enjoy an abundance of wildlife and are very protective of it all. Developers are buying up every available piece of land they can get, and pushing development further and further East of the Coastal Construction Control line (CCCL). Public officials seem reluctant to stand up against overdevelopment...and once it is developed it is No Longer Available to Everyone!
