Visiting the house that sparked coastal land use setbacks

The dynamics of land and water were on display for members of the Coastal Hazards of Superior group when they toured Lake Superior’s South Shore at a homesite in Herbster, Wisconsin. The home, now owned by Dan and Mary Schneider, was moved 20 years ago farther inland from an eroding lake bluff in one of the first efforts to address coastal home erosion and establish setback distances in Bayfield County.
