I like the idea that the public can use the waterfront as an adjunct to the use of the water, which is, of course public (if navigable, actually it belongs to the United States), to the highest reach of the tide. This is, of course, the law, and has been the law for hundreds of years.

Higher up than the highest reach of the tide is problematic. I don't think that taxpayers should have to protect private property from storms, that's for sure. If private property owners had to fork out the repair money from their own pockets every time a storm damaged their property, I guess that would solve part of the problem, wouldn't it?
