Three local conservation Authorities have teamed up with community partners to produce a series of four videos to help people better understand shoreline activity.
The videos provide information on four themes; shoreline processes, living with erosion, what you need to know before planning to build along the shoreline and what you need to know before buying property along the shoreline.

The Town of Goderich is still mulling over what to do about short term rentals.
Goderich Mayor John Grace says council is still considering how a bylaw will address concerns regarding short term rentals in the town.
“It’s all about creating a balance when it comes to short term rentals and that doesn’t mean we’re going to be anything like Grand Bend or Bayfield or Port Elgin, but balanced and determined by Goderich, for Goderich. So it’s got to be a made-in-Goderich program,” said Grace.
