Dear Madame Mayor and City Council Members,

On behalf of the Shore Drive Community Coalition (SDCC), I formally request that you approve the resolution being considered at the March 8th City Council Session regarding Cape Henry Beach.  The approval of this resolution is the first step toward a much needed sand replenishment program for the beaches located East of the Lesner Bridge.  A public easement and sand replenishment program will benefit the local residents as well as the entire City and implement a program currently recommended by the Beaches and Waterways Management Plan.  The SDCC also suggests that a Task Force be created to help maintain the momentum of this initiative.  The specifics of this Task Force have been included [below].

Thank you for your consideration in approving this “everyone wins” resolution.

Todd Solomon
Shore Drive Community Coalition – President
