The Science and Politics of Shoreline Preservation

<p>&lt;p&gt;On the next episode of Planet Haliburton we examine the science and regulatory issues related to natural shoreline protection.&amp;nbsp;Natural shorelines perform a range of important ecological functions essential to the environmental and economic health of Haliburton County. But they’re are under increasing pressure due to shoreline development and redevelopment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;Can we protect those natural shorelines from ongoing decline without undermining shoreline landowner property rights or the shoreline landscape industry?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;To shed some light on this and other questions related to the draft County Shoreline Preservation By-law, we speak with shoreline naturalization expert, Julia Sutton, and environmental planning consultant, Stephen Fahner.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Show Notes: <a href="https://canoefm.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Background-Resources-for-Planet-Haliburton-March-30-2020.pdf&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://canoefm.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Background-Resources-for-Planet-Haliburton-March-30-2020.pdf&amp;lt;/p&amp;gt</a>;</p>
