On Real News with Rick Outzen this Morning on WCOA

I've been invited to appear on 1370 WCOA's Real News with Rick Outzen--the area's best, most listened-to, most reliable and most dependable morning drive news program.


I've been invited to appear on tomorrow's edition of "Real News with Rick Outzen" at 7:10 on 1370 WCOA.  Rick wants to discuss the county's response to the tragic shooting event Saturday afternoon at the Bellview ball park in District 1.

Tune in later this morning at 7:10 to the area's best, most highly rated and respected morning drive news program on the area's top news talk station, 1370 WCOA.

Once Rick publishes the podcast, I will link it here.

I also hope you all vote to remove the shell fiasco at Navy Point shoreline and don't just discuss it. Get it done before November please. Great you have it on the agenda.
No need to kick the can. You have a documented report that it is a failure.

Maybe they can be dumped elsewhere, like on an actual Oyster reef, or sunken artificial reef not a neighborhood beach. That was a total fail.

Google living shoreline and see what is appropriate for a sandy shoreline. It is not Oyster shells.

Yes, too much violence in the county and country. Good podcast.

It would be best to have a link to the back up with the latest report on the Navy Point Shoreline so media and others can have it ahead of time.

No need for Wes to protect Chips nor Underhill. Show the document ahead of time in a link. You already emailed the agenda but didn't include that. Have it added please.

If it's failing, It is what it is. No need to prevaricate nor procrastinate.

Post the document. It is certainly no secret.

Let the sunshine in, face it with a grin. 😁

Yes you have crews raking the oak leaves but if you left them and planted native species that would stop erosion. Duh.
If people don't want tall native species blocking the view they could plant low growing native plants.

I found it disturbing that plants were bought and not planted. It is in the report.
Using the road crew is nice but horticulturist-- they aren't.

A blog with the report would be nice. Look forward to it. Bergosh, righter of wrongs.

The road crew limbed up Gem Magnolias in another location when they are designed to grow limbs all the way to the ground.

At least remove the shell piles, leaving the shore alone would be better than dumping trashy sand full of dangerous debris there. Leaves form mulch and improve the soil.




Navy Point Park. Thursday. Enough is enough.

Assessment of the Navy Point Living Shoreline Project
This report was produced by Emerald Ocean Engineering LLC under contract to Melissa Pino

If the report had come to a different conclusion it would have been buried.

This blog is about your podcast and the shooting and the murderer is still at large. The 15K reward may help the ECSO catch the thugs. Paid hitmaen in gangs. It is atrocious.

As far as shorelines, here is the beginning of what to do to make a living shoreline at the appropriate place.

Sorry, I don't think your in house guy CK made good decisions.

I think this was for a boy scout badge for DU's kids.

Good thing the perpetrator (DildoDoug) is posting public pictures of himself across the country. Hopefully he will not be in attendance. After people started speaking out about this he started his revenge,scorn,dumping garbage on the shore, even lawfare using a county employee to silence critics with his Facebook flying monkeys doing some of the dirty work. In addition to bulldog of a wife. They called in people to publicly defame.

Time to end this.

Not only were the NPLS project goals unmet, what was ostensibly a marine/shoreline conservation project is now undeniably a garbage dump that will continue to degrade. A good manager knows when to cut their losses. Remove.
