Build On A Beachfront Lot?


Recommended Posts

Hi, I used to own a beachfront house in Galveston a few years ago. In short the house was sold but there was actually 2 lots. The lot I still have is closest to the beach. I have attached an aerial picture. The row of houses is where my former house is. The row of lots closer to the beach is where my lot is. When I bought the house and lot the beach front lot was unbuildable because it was too close to the public beach even though as seen in the picture there a house on the same row-maybe it was on the GLO list back then? 

 

I understand things might be different because of a decision by scotex last March that the Beach Act is no longer  valid? If so I was wondering if I now can build a house on my lot since now there is no rule about building XX feet close to the edge of the public beach.

 

Anyone have any idea?
