What's Happening on the Outer Banks??

This is what is happening on the Outer Banks:
* The House of Representatives has passed a 5 year reauthorization of the National Flood Insurance Program. The Senate has yet to act. If you'd like to write a letter in support of this vital program please contact me.
* NCDOT has approved a $215M budget for a new bridge over Oregon Inlet. Completion date is spring 2015.
* No word yet on the final environmental impact report in connection with the Mid-Currituck County Bridge. I'll keep you posted once I hear anything.
* Nags Head Beach Nourishment is underway. MP 15.5 to Jennette's Pier is now complete. As of the 23rd of July the dredge is under repair and it's not clear at this point when pumping will continue.
* Sales in Duck have reached a new high! Average sales price is up 14% over last year with 4 fewer sales for the same time range.
* Sales in Corolla aren't far behind. Their average is up 3%! It's nice to see numbers on the plus side for a change.
