North Carolina continues to Fall into the ocean and Federal Gov Does nothing

To be clear it doesn’t matter if the federal government was shut down or not. They already do nothing and have done nothing for many years. This problem didn’t start yesterday.That is the Island where the town of Buxton is. The water has moved +2000 feet. That’s almost half a mile. The water line was much further away that that when most of these homes and businesses were built in the 50s to 90s. It moved the last 147 feet in a few days after Hurricane Erin broke the last jetty. NO ONE built their house on the beach, much less next to the water. That would not even be legal.Picture from 2009Some of the large “homes” you see falling in the water are not homes they are motel units that many people stayed in. These businesses are also washing away.The beach is gone and unusable as it is now full of dangerous debris. You can see broken concrete because these structures were on concrete in the town not on the beach. The beach has moved because of rapid man made erosion. That WAS Buxton.These cannot be savedThey are standing on what was a poolThese properties were across the street from the ocean side almost on the Pamlico Sound.
