I recently received on the 1st of August an email sent 3:17 PM of that day from Councilman Wood giving notice of the initial meeting of the Beaches and Waterways Advisory Commission. This important meeting will be held  4 August at 4 PM (Thursday) Building 2, Third Floor Public Works Engineering Conference Room at the Municipal Center.  This initial meeting will be our first dialog to discuss the dredge spoils removal and transfer stations proposed for the Lynnhaven basin.  SDCC and the other attending civic representatives will seek open discussions concerning  the design, scope, safety, duration, viability, and the appropriateness of this commercial project for our neighborhoods and residential roads.  More about the specific design aspects will be forthcoming after this initial meeting.
