The entire Outer Banks are sand bars that during history have moved, it is sand for X sake. Building there is insane and any cleanup should not be on taxpayers money. A fool and his money are easily parted.

How these idiots made enough money to build a house (that they only visit occasionally) on a sand bar, that no sane or thinking person would, is indicative of how screwed up our society is. NC legislators need to be fired if any tax money is wasted trying to stay the ocean.

The outer banks, barrier islands of North Carolina are nothing more than large sand bars that are constantly changing from adverse weather and wave action, it is a natural occurrence and can't be stopped. Every homeowner in this state subsidizes the insurance for these big houses in case there is catastrophic destruction due to storms which would bankrupt insurance companies, a slush fund if you will, paid for by taxpayers. I am a native of this state and as a child my family visited the area often, there was little on the islands other than the small villages that had been there for decades, the area has been ruined by people, they even drove the wild horses from their habitat to the last place they could go and people are taking over that area to with the big houses. I use to like to visit because it was so baren and devoid of people and crowds, but not anymore.

For years now it's been trying to open a new inlet. The state has been spending money and a waste of time fighting it. Let it happen. Mother nature is telling you she is going to open a new inlet here. We need one. Organ inlet is filling in. Dredging is not working and also a waste of tax dollars. It's been changing for years.

Building all of those miles of dunes seemed like a good idea at the time I suppose. "Are the Outer Banks dunes man-made? In the period between 1936 and 1940, the CCC and WPA, under the direction of the National Park Service, erected almost 3,000,000 feet of sand fencing to create a continuous barrier dune along the Outer Banks-including Hatteras, Pea, and Bodie Islands. NPS History"
@danielcarter5537 6 ай бұрын
Dam morons need to stop trying to build permanent structures on top of barrier islands. They're just sand and the structure isn't going to stay where you put it. There should not be any bailouts for these idiots and you should not be allowed to purchase insurance policies for these houses.

Before you buy in the outer banks look at what is happening in Rodanthe, NC. Rodanthe, a small coastal town in North Carolina, is facing a devastating crisis as its coastline erodes at an alarming rate of 13 feet per year. Homeowners are losing their properties, and many are wondering why the city allowed development to proceed so close to the ocean. The city's inaction has raised questions about its accountability. Critics argue that it ignored warnings about the dangers of coastal erosion and failed to take steps to prevent it. Property owners are demanding that the city take responsibility for enabling this crisis. Efforts have been made to address the issue, but many experts say it's only a temporary solution. Homeowners are calling for immediate action to prevent further erosion and provide support for those affected. The crisis in Rodanthe serves as a reminder of the importance of responsible development and environmental stewardship. It's essential that we learn from this disaster and take proactive steps to protect our coastlines. For now, residents can only hope that someone will take notice and take action before it's too late.

Sadly you can't fight the ocean. This should be a warning to all settlements on coastlines around the world. We're all just a few meters from a major life change. A life change many of us may live to see. These properties serve as the "canary in the coal mine" to warn us what will happen and how puny our efforts to stop it really are. That picture of the one puny Earth moving machine working against the entire Atlantic ocean, was the perfect shot.

I have wonderful memories of vacationing in Rodanthe and the Outer Banks. It is a shame that future generations will not have these memories. But I can't help but wonder whether residents and owners don't believe in big government and socialism, yet want taxpayers to pay part of the cost of saving their cottages

Sand will move and relocate at different rates. Forming new bars and shoals. And some will be lost all togather. The truth is, it is near impossible to actually prevent this from happening. In days gone by, people would not have built permanent structures. They will be lost. A summer cabin with no running water and oil lamps is one thing. Especially the ones on skids that you could move with a tractor. But those folks got moved out or lost to a hurricane eventually. So these folks moved in. And built... this. Raising homeowners insurance by the way amongst other costs to the community

Cnut - or Canute if you prefer - tried to do that. The ocean is inexorable. You might slow it down for a year or two if you want to throw enough money at it. But the next severe storm that coincides with a King tide will undo all of that expensive work. And who pays? The tax payers who could never afford to live there in the first place?

Look at the history of the Outer Banks, the inlets close and reopen with new ones being formed and the entire bank moves west slowly. Won't be in time tosave the cottages though.
