Fairhope, Alabama thefairhopetimes.blogspot.com September 27, 2026 NORTH MAGNOLIA BEACH A wooden fence to reduce windblown sand erosion is the last component of the Magnolia Beach project begun in July. GMC Engineering is to be retained by the city to monitor the project's effectiveness for three years. From a July 2026 FT report: "The long-awaited Magnolia Beach re-nourishment/stabilization project has finally started; it includes installation of breakwaters as well as more sand to widen the northern section in the area around the small wooden pier. American Asphalt Services Inc. is the contractor for $495K (lowest bidder). GMC is the project’s engineer. Final completion is expected by the end of Summer. A $620 GOMESA state grant awarded in 2023 is being used to finance the project." 2016 photo.
