I support the passage of Indiana Senate Bill 539 which protects access and use of the entire shoreline of Lake Michigan in Long Beach Indiana by all of its residents.

I am a resident of Long Beach, and I should have access to the beach in my neighborhood! No person should be able to own such a beautiful natural wonder as the lake, it belongs to everyone! You cannot say that the homeowners own the lake, their property line ends much before the water line. I am always respectfull when I go to the beach, always clean up after myself and do not disturb others. There is no reason I should be barred from using the natural resources in my area, that would be like banning residents from a public park in the neighborhood, saying only the closest houses to the park can use the swings. We can all share and be kind to each other!

LEAVE THE BEACH OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Fed up with these homeowners acting like they own the whole lakefront.

Been going to this beach for 30 years and suddenly I am a tresspasser? Nonsense.

Ridiculous that we have to fight for this. The water is public property period.

Finally someone is doing something about this. I live just a few blocks away and get hassled every time I try to walk the shore.

The beach is for everyone. My kids grew up playing there and it just isnt right that some people think they own the sand.
