How can everyone stay informed?
The success of this project depends on the understanding and support of each and every one of our property owners. While the engineering and finances are formidable challenges, an even more difficult challenge is communicating with every property owner along our coast. Our experience, along with that of the County, in trying to contact everyone via our newsletter or regarding the emergency sand petition, indicated that updated contact information is needed for many property owners. We expect to be soon gathering support for the MSBU for the full beach restoration, so accurate contact information will be necessary.
To enable communication, we are using multiple methods including US Postal Service paper mailing, email, internet website, monthly meetings, and block captain personal phone calls. Email and the internet are the most efficient and cost-effective methods of communicating, so we encourage everyone to provide us updated email addresses and to check our website. If you previously provided an email address but are not currently receiving emails from us, please confirm that our messages are not being mistakenly directed to your junk mail folder. If you have not yet provided us with an email address, or updated us with any changes, please do so by sending an email to the association by contacting Tom Turnage
Please also send any additions or changes in telephone contact information and preferred mailing address, since unexpected items like the emergency sand opportunity are sometimes best explained orally and some items must be delivered by mail.
We advise that you check the facts with us whenever some news is made available through the television and newspaper media. Many of the local reporters have communicated with us numerous times; we applaud them for learning so quickly so much about this topic and thank them for their continued coverage. Nevertheless it is sometimes difficult to present the complete, accurate picture in brief news clips and articles.
