Yesterday, I posted a letter written to the refuge manager of Chincoteague National Wildlife Refuge regarding the beach parking that has been there for decades. This morning the Eastern Shore Post's coverage wound up in my inbox. (Hat tip to my mother).
From the Shore Post's story, it appears that I am not the only one who does not want to see the beach parking and access be moved from it's traditional place on Assateague Island. Magically, the unintended consequences that bureaucrats and politicians don't foresee, are very easy for the non-elite public to contemplate.
I will let the Shore Post's coverage speak for itself, but the general consensus amongst community members and visitors is that the shore and beach access provided by the parking on Assateague island is important to the local economies and traditions of the park and Chincoteague Island. Hopefully, it won't be forgotten in the name of environmentalism.
