This replenishment project was sold to the Citizens as an all natural environment with logs and plants. All this special money was going into it to make it look perfectly natural and it sounded very exciting.
Now look at it. Not a single log, no sign of plants and IMO it looks like a commercial boat harbor, which doesn't belong in the Park in the middle of the City. Yep, you've been screwed once again. Those of us living in Delmar are looking in and laughing our a**es off at just how foolish this John Jacobs is too. I wonder how many kids per year will break their legs/ankles on those rocks every year?
Considering this is NOT tidal waterways, this was the biggest overkill I have ever seen in my entire life! John Jacobs needs a job in Ocean City or some place like that, not Salisbury! However, kudos to Denny Sharp from High Tide Marine. The man does do good work!

Don't blame the installer! He was paid to do a job and for rip rap, I'd say that work looks extremely professional. They did what they were hired to do and the Mayor, John Jacobs and Jim Rapp lied to the Public. That's who you should be going after.
The "Logs" were supposed to be enviromental logs filled with sand and placed just inside the waters edge to stabilize the shoreline and promote plant growth.Also in conjunction with these logs was a lesser amount of rip-rap to give as soft look while still accomplishing the same mission stabilizing the shoreline. That's my interpretation of what was said at the council meeting when the Chesapeake Bay Foundation was in attendance and offered it's suggestions. I think it looks like poop.
I'd also suggest that this job was done with constant supervision by someone just because of it's scope and cost. Oh sorry this is Salisbury they may not know it's even started yet!
