Over the last two years, the San Juan Initiative hosted 18 public workshops and worked with scientists and resource managers to develop new ideas for protecting our shorelines in a way that respects the concerns of property owners. In December, the County Council unanimously endorsed our approach to tailor environmental protection and property owner assistance to the sensitivity of the shoreline. This is a departure from past efforts where all shorelines were treated the same.
