This is hilarious. The U.S. Corps of Engineers has dangled a $42 million carrot to replenish sand on beaches in front of expensive houses but the homeowners don't want it at the expense of having to create public access easements (because federal dollars can only go towards improving public, not private, beaches). This town is going to get annihilated by the next big storm because these little tyrants want to keep their beaches private.

      Public roads in Wyoming have stuff like this happen as well. A popular picnic stop at the top of a small mountain I went to once had a public road all the way to the top until a guy bought the land on both sides of the road and closed it off. Now you have to park about an hour's walk down and hoof it to the top.
