Summary:
The Village of Surfside (VOS) Gulf shoreline has experienced long term erosion estimated at a rate of 4 ft/year (TX BEG, 2004). However, the erosion has recently accelerated and is estimated at rate of 26 ft/year based on surveys collected from November 2004 through November 2006. The accelerated erosion has diminished the width of the public beach, increased damage to public infrastructure during high tide events, and significantly reduced public safety and use of the beach.
