Why are the beaches not policed better? You can't get a sheriff deputy within a 2 hr time. or never!
The Hispanics come over and take over the beach at Port Bolivar. We pay taxes for protection and get Nothing in return as we are swarmed by non-English speaking thieves coming on decks taking our fishing gear,
Why do the deputies tell them to go to the spot between the Jetty and the fort? Telling them that area is free!
We paid about 3000.00 for a week of hell there in Aug. this yr.
We also own a home there on the ship channel side.
We had to pull Mexicans off Jet Sky's. A boat nearly stolen. and no 911 answers to calls!
As a Tax payer I wont services. Where is our protection? riding back and forth on the ferry and looking cute? Not!!!!!!!!!!
We need enforcement on the beaches. The 10.00 dollars we pay and a poor older woman trying to collect this is so silly. Put a fee daily on these people who don't live on the Peninsula and Urinate , have bowel movements, undress, Steel come into the private property and take anything they can. Pay no fees and leave the trash for owners to clean up.
We are a growing area but this stops people who spend money from coming.
Get this fixed!

Our family also ran into the same problems and I also think there should be a daily fee so the trash and "Muck" could be cleaned from the beaches.
There should be parking places and no driving if they will not comply with the law. We have a wonderful place here to be trashed by uncaring trash.
We do not receive the sheriffs protection as we should.
The ferries are operated by the state and they should police them. "Texas Highway Dept."
Clean our beaches up! Why should it take a hurricane to do that? People using them should be fined for the litter.
If there are going to be people camping "ON THE BEACH" furnish them toilets. I for one am not happy to see them using the beach as they do in Mexico. Just take a dump in the water or on the beach.
Is there any wonder people are developing diseases.
We must have some order and protection for citizens. Galveston has no driving on beach.
We must do something! times are changing.
You can't trust people as before.
Houses are broken into, Women raped and murdered, things stolen and it isn't our locals.
It is best to get ahead before it gets any worse.
Make the beaches pay for themselves. Police the non-compliance and the cause of the trouble.
This is not little Mexico and free to destroy.
I commend the People for the clean up. but what about the home owners where the trash washed from the Beach before the clean-up? They have a job ahead of them.
I liked one woman's statement that she had no trouble in Port Bolivar near the beach . "I have a fence and 5 big dogs" (I thought we were alowed 4" LOL! Maybe we do need the dogs patrolling the beach.
We need to take care of this before it takes care of us even more.
Put our taxes to work for us here also the Beach fees.

The following is a comment regarding the condition of the beach at 2408 Highway 87 , Gilchrist posted by a recent vacation renter.
At 3/23/2008 9:24 PM a comment was posted to your article Connollyville Too - Gilchrist - Beachfront.
House was ok. Was very sad to see the beach littered with everything from broken beer bottles, medical needles, rope and plastic bottles. Family spent hours everyday cleaning up beach. 8 large trash bags full. Wished every visitor to the area would do the same.
