Wildwood Mayor Ernie Troiano did not mince words when talking about the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers plan to build a $21.8 million sand dune in the resort town.
"The idea is ludicrous," he told the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Cape May County Herald said the dune plan is set to fight a "familiar tale" that Wildwood and Wildwood Crest have too much sand and that North Wildwood doesn't have enough.
The plan calls for "building dunes and berms from Hereford Inlet to Cape May Inlet," the Herald reported.
