SHORE LINE Published by The Town of Pine Knoll Shores In The Interests Of Its Citizens Town Hall: 247-4353 Emergency Phones: Police: 728-3772 Fire & Rescue: 728-4111 Commissioner for finance, Aubrey Johnson, reported that all town funds are kept in interest-bearing accounts reported each month and available to be reviewed in the Town Office. In answer to a question about the Town's insurance, he stated that except for workmen's compensation, most was underwritten by the State. The Planning Board and Commissioner Libby have had a busy summer. The Land Use Plan has been approved by the State Coastal Resource Commission. Mr. Libby moved the adoption of the amendment to the "litter law" which addresses the problem of responsi bility for unsightly litter. The motion was approved which will make persons allowing accumulation of refuse and the like, subject to a $50 fine. Also approved was the resolution to permit extra-territorial acquisition by Atlantic Beach of some land on the eastern border of Pine Knoll Shores. Proposed ordinances dealing with unsolved problems of the town have been returned to the Planning Board for further work: revision of sub division ordinance; gasoline storage tank placement and protection; and the requirements for moving houses into Pine Knoll Shores from another municipality. To deal with the problem of timely construction completion within the town, a policy statement shall be included with others which accompany the issuance of a building permit. Further, on the subject of construction, a public hearing will be held to consider the establish ment of hours within which work may take place. Building Inspector Blanchard reported that during July three permits were issued for residences, seven for other permits and three certificates of occupancy. Commissioner Shedd reports the distribution of marl in worn places along the Town right-of-way has been completed. His good news was that the Gypsy moths seem to have left town; none were found this month. The problem of persons putting out trash ahead of the collection dates and failing to remove the containers promptly continues. Again, owners and renters are urged to conform to the regulations. In the emergency services: Commissioner Sotir reports 22 calls for the ambulance. Inasmuch as Rescue #2 shows signs of age, investigation is imderway to replace it. Com missioner White reported 196 police calls and 1 fire call which turned into a double when a car in the halted traffic also caught fire. The subject of "privilege license" was discussed. It was agreed to review the present ordinance. The Commissioners vrelcomed Bogue Banks Country Club Board members Jim Umbarger and Bill Phillips to consider their concerns about damage to the golf course. The board welcomes their suggestions.
