Construction is nearly complete on a dune that the city and the state Department of Environmental Protection agreed should be installed in front of the North Wildwood Beach Patrol headquarters at 15th Avenue and the beach. According to the Cape May County Herald, the collaboration between the city and the DEP to get the dune built was just the latest chapter in an ongoing dispute between the two sides over shore protection measures. The battle has seen legal actions and a state fine involving tens of millions of dollars even as the city and state anticipate the start of a long-awaited, large-scale dune project under the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
