• Lawsuit Arising From Scrapped Dune Project Is Dropped (capemaycountyherald.com) — A lawsuit tied to the now-canceled Five-Mile Dune beach protection project has been dropped after the Army Corps scrapped the $54 million plan involving North Wildwood, Wildwood, Wildwood Crest and Lower Township. With the project off the table, North Wildwood’s case against Wildwood Crest became moot, though future beach replenishment decisions will still affect the area’s shoreline communities.
