Who do I have to call to get a jetty built at Western Lakes' outlet and then a boat access and trailer parking?

That would sure create a nice surf break but it will never happen. The coastal dune lakes are too rare.

pro -- maybe the water would be deep enough that the kids would no longer catch and torture the crabs.

Not legal under the present county codes which do not allow any armoring at the dune lake outlets. Those outlets are meant to open and close and meander - a permanent structure such as you are proposing would completely alter the lake ecology. I would suggest you educate yourself about coastal dune lakes and also the effects of jetties on beach erosion.
This is a terrible idea.

Was this once "crazy" at all the other jetty locations around fl?
I know these jetties are "man maintained" and likely would have opened and closed through the years, as storms have passed, if they were not. Why is it possible in all the other locations in fl.
What would the benefits to our community be, including the tremendous recreational perks Bobby J. mentioned?
Would it, or the serious mention of it, spark another real estate boom?
