Phipps, 48, has been hired as Rose Hill police chief. Phipps will fill the vacancy created when the former chief resigned to r become police chief in Wa'Hct He will start at an annual salary of $16,500 and will report for duty Dec. 24. He was hired by the Town Board last week. PhioDS comes to Rose Hill from the Morehead City, police force. Before joining the Morehead City police, he had been police chief in Cape Carteret for 9'/a years. Three new board members, Gary Boney, George S. Murray and Gregory Miller, and Mayor Ben Harrell, who was reelected, took their oaths of office. Commissioner Clarence Brown was elected mayor pro tern. Harrell appointed Brown as public works commissioner; Boney as community development commissioner, Murray as public safety commissioner, Marsha Whaley as public health commissioner, and Miller as parks and recreation commissioner. In other business, the board left for study and a future meeting a question of grandfather clauses and local streets. The question came up when Charlie Hawes wanted the town to bring 800 feet of Maple Street in northwestern Rose Hill up to town standards and pave it. Hawes said that several years ago he had asked the town to take over and maintain the street. He has a mobile home park facing the street. He was told at that time that current subdivision plans call for the developer to bring streets up to town standards and pave them before turning them over to the town. Hawes said he now finds the town plans to build up and pave Third Street. He asked why that street will be paved an<* not his street. Town attorney Richard Burrows said Third Street had been turned over to the town at the turn of the century and thus came under a grandfather clause that allows the town to make street improvements. Hawes said Maple Street should fall under a grandfather clause, too, because it is shown on a March I960 town map. Burrows replied that the map merely showed where streets should be. He said some streets on the map might not have been build and turned over to the town. Harrell suggested that the town take over the short street and use Powell Bill money to pave it. Brown asked: "If we do this will we be opening a keg for other folks on down the road?" Burrows replied: "It's merely a question of whether it comes under the grandfather clause. If it doesn't you simply can't do it."
