APTOS — Following a carefully planned and multifaceted demolition process, the pier at Seacliff State Beach is no more and the iconic Cement Ship just off shore sits all alone for the first time in more than 90 years.California State Parks officials tell the Sentinel that the agency has awarded a contract to an infrastructure advisory firm that will begin developing a Sea Level Rise Vulnerability Assessment and Shoreline Adaptational Alternative study.
He said the process of defining the scope of the coming recovery will be balanced with “the need for public recreation, protecting parkland and creating sustainable park infrastructure in the future.” It wasn’t just the pier that was severely damaged during a series of powerful atmospheric river storms that struck the Central Coast in early January. The campground has been closed for at least through 2023 after much of its fill material and underground infrastructure was swept away and nearly all of the accompanying seawall was destroyed. Bluffs along the inland side of the park also experienced landslides following extended periods of heavy rainfall.
“We have the opportunity to envision a climate-resistant coastal park,” said Bonny Hawley, executive director of Friends of Santa Cruz State Parks, a nonprofit local operating partner of the state agency. “We’re so used to just putting everything back the way it was and we have to rethink that.”
