Corps denies permij for Cowand Poini
A permit application by Cook Brothers, Inc. to construct a road and boat ramp on Cowand Point in the Bay of St. Louis, has been denied by the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers.
Brig. General John Cook Jr., of North Beach, Bay St. Louis, contacted Tuesday said the Cook Brothers’ application had been previously denied by the Mississippi Marine Resources Council, so a turn down by the Corps was more or less routine.
Gen. Cook said the application was made more as an investigatory move than anything else and designed as much to save the point from further erosion as it was to orovide for a development.

before the Corps Feb. 27 hearing.
“The city took no action on the notice as no application for building permits or County Planning Commission recommendations concerning North Beach or Cowand Point developments by Cook Brothers, Inc., have been received by the city,” Carver said.
City records indicate riparian rights are not involved at Cowand Point. The three lots concerned are shown as being 16C - owned by J. J. McDonald, 19D - the property of Amilia B. Letellier and 20C - owned by Cook Bros. Inc.
Cowand Point is located outside the seawall, the next “point” into the Bay of St. Louis beyond, and to the northwest of Bay-Waveland Yacht Club.
