A friend of mine has a beach with a bunch of grass on it similar

Don't, it is probably half the reason there is even a beach there

Came to post this. You need to look up the local laws for stuff like this. It is normally highly regulated. Ask neighbors too.

>probably half the reason there is even a beach there
This Anon is right but to give a small explanation the roots on the plants would help keep the sand in place

>>1205122
Don't. The grass is preventing shoreline erosion that will eventually cause damage to the house. I wouldn't pull up any grass 10 feet past the house. I used to work at several resort properties on the Outer Banks. Shoreline erosion is a big, expensive fucking problem.

>A friend of mine has a beach with a bunch of grass on it similar to the pic. What is the best way to remove his continued ownership of said beach?

OP if you do remove the grass (because it's private property and your right), put down chicken wire and dump a shit ton of additional sand on top of it. Or be prepared to have a floating house

In most states, the property line ends at the dune and you simply have an easement which allows for the deck to be build over the dune. As other anons said, the dunes are critical to the integrity of the island. Just walking on them is subject to a $500 fine in my area.

you could always burn them, legality aside

look up {"beach erosion" "grass"}

>>1205123
But it looks ugly as shit and not like beach at all.

She actually has a steep bank of regular grass and weeds before it flattens out into sand and grass. Her beach is already clear but she bought the property next door and it is overgrown like the pic.

Burn it.

>>1205122
its stopping your house from being washed into the ocean dipshit

>>1205343
Its not on an ocean. Its on a bay and almost every other house does not have grass so I doubt one person having grass is going to make much difference.

Burn it, then watch as 3 years pass and your friends house sinks into the mud.

>chicken wire

Retard.

>>1205122
Blow torch. After you burn it you're required to alert your state parks and wildlife department so they can verify no sea turtles are left.

Beach grass doesn't burn for shit and is sparse.

If someone ignored the laws and anti-erosion cautions and HAD to burn it, you'd need to walk around with a weed burner.

Put a sheet of black polyethilene on top of grass, it will die in a week.

>>1205341
Then I imagine she could just do whatever she did before to clear it up.

Yeeeesss... a weed burner

>>1205557

>Someone actually drew this

mow it

>>1205122
Mix diesel and biocide, apply liberally

Guys, you missed the point. He's a 'friend,' or, that is, op wants to fuck him subtly

>because it's private property and your right

The people who live next door to our cabin decided to tear up all the cattails so they could put a dock in. DNR came in and fined them $1000+ and made them pay for the restoration to the shore. Oh and they had to remove their dock.

So you probably grew up inland, yeah?
