RELATING TO BEACHES.

SB 403 limits public funding for beach replenishment projects in areas zoned for resorts to 20% of the total project cost. This directly affects property owners and developers in resort-zoned coastal areas, requiring them to cover at least 80% of replenishment expenses. The key provision sets a strict cap on government financial support for restoring sand on beaches within designated resort zones. The bill does not change existing regulations for non-resort areas or other beach management practices.
