Town of Duck
The Town of Duck is proud to share the completion of a major shoreline stabilization project at Duck Town Park. In this video, Sandy Cross, Planning and Permits Manager for the Town of Duck, walks viewers through the journey behind this project, from its earliest concepts in 2017 to the final permitted design you see today.
After multiple design iterations and permitting challenges related to subaquatic vegetation, the Town remained committed to protecting this valued community space. The final project features 10 vertical vinyl sills (not bulkheads) designed to dissipate wave energy while allowing water and sediment to move naturally, helping preserve the surrounding shoreline and habitat.
