Broward County is completing the design for the Dune Project along Hollywood Beach. The City's consultant is working on conceptual design options for the Central Beach area and Broadwalk commercial district (approximately 0.7 miles).

Description

As an enhancement to the beach renourishment activities, maintain existing dunes and create dunes where none exist. This will be done through City installations on public beaches and through mandates on private beach property and/or incentive programs. An educational campaign about the importance and benefits of dunes will explain their value to the property owners and educate beach visitors to the importance of the systems. Dunes can be maintained by City staff time, private management, and volunteer stewards.
