Shoreline Management Act

Shoreline Management

There are documents that have been published to preserve our beautiful environment in Semiahmoo. The Guidelines for Maintenance of Undeveloped Lots is one of them. Another important document is the Tree Management Guidelines, they complement each other. Both documents can be found in our SRA website under FOR RESIDENTS/HOME AND LANDSCAPE CHANGES, it will open the ASC page, you’ll need to scroll down to get to the proper link.

In the Guidelines for Maintenance of Undeveloped Lots, it refers to the City of Blaine Shoreline Master Program. This extensive document has a lot of information on how to manage the lots that are next to the water’s edge in our community. Generally, it applies to areas within 200 feet of the “Ordinary High Water Mark” (OHWM).

Close co-ordination between owner, ASC and the city is paramount. To learn more about the City of Blaine Shoreline Master Program go to the link: City of Blaine Shoreline Master Program
