The City of Dunkirk and Buffalo Niagara Waterkeeper are inviting members of the community to attend a virtual meeting to view and comment on the final framework plan for improvements to Wright Park Beach and Lakefront Boulevard. The meeting is scheduled for Tuesday from 5:00-6:00 PM and will be the final meeting on the Wright Park Beach Shoreline Naturalization and Protection Project, which will focus on restoring and stabilizing the shoreline, bluffs and habitat at Wright Park Beach. The area has faced significant erosion from stormwater, lake level fluctuations, and waves as high as 30 feet -- damaging infrastructure and threatening the city's wastewater treatment plant. This effort is part of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Cities Initiative (GLSCI) Resilient Coastal Projects Initiative, which aims to deliver sustainable, fundable designs to protect vulnerable Great Lakes shorelines.
