Committee notes blizzard damage at Corporation and Mayflower beaches; revetment work underway
Summary
The committee reviewed storm photos and ongoing revetment reconstruction at Bleak House Downs; they noted limited southside damage, a cut in the coastal bank at Corporation Beach and an approximate $50,000 sand replenishment need, and advised caution around active work sites.
The Town of Dennis Beach Committee on March 12 reviewed storm damage reports following a recent blizzard and noted ongoing shoreline work at Corporation Beach.
Committee members saw photos that Kathy had emailed showing a cut in the coastal bank at Corporation Beach; the minutes record that limited damage was observed at southside beaches and that Mayflower Beach showed localized damage between chairs 4 and 5. The committee noted a preliminary estimate that sand replenishment at Corporation Beach could cost approximately $50,000. The minutes do not record a vote or appropriation for that replenishment.
Separately, the committee recorded that a revetment reconstruction at the Bleak House Downs property at Corporation Beach was occurring that week. Committee materials said the parking lot remained open but advised that members of the public avoid the lower lot while daytime work takes place for safety.
No formal action on funding or contracts was recorded on March 12; committee members flagged the need for further review of repair costs and next steps.
