Town : BY TERRY POPE Within weeks, parking along the right-of-way of Ocean Boulevard at Holden Beach without a special use permit will be illegal. Council members voted unanimously last Wednesday morning to ban all parking along the boulevard "from either side all the way from one end to the other." Streets and beach access commissioner Graham King was not present for the special meeting. The board cited safety as the main reason for eliminating parking along the shoulder of Ocean Boulevard the entire length of the island. In a letter addressed to Mayor Kenner Amos, resident William G. Marley Jr. of 335 Ocean Boulevard West requested that a no-parking zone be established in front of his home, which is adjacent to a public beach access walkway. While on the topic of noparking. Commissioner Hal Stanley expanded the scope of the request by including all of Ocean Boulevard in the plan. His motion called for the banning all parking along the right-of-way except for those persons obtaining a special use permit first from the police department. "If you put the cars on the right-of-way, the runners and walkers have no place to go but on the highway," Stanley said. Stanley said he has observed the parking areas pro Mi a =1 ' P POLICE CHIEF WILLIAM HILI between the bridge repair crew Some had long drives ahead oi I reach cars parked on the mainl: Calendar Eve Thursday, Aug. 22 SEA TRAIL COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION holds a covered Sunset Beach Fire Station, 6:30 p.m. DEADLINE TO REGISTER for the Calabash VFW Benefi at Carolina Shores Golf & Country Club, Calabash, on Ai or 1803 1 44S-2657 for more information.

"I don't know of a law that doesn't raise a little bit of a problem to somebody," he added. Councilman Jim Griffin said the ban on parking along the nine-mile stretch will affect more cars than initially believed. "If we had a car count this year along Ocean Boulevard," Griiiin said, "l think we'd be shocked at how many cars are there." But council member Gloria Barrett said the "only way to solve the problem is to be consistent." She seconded Stanley's motion that parking along the street be hanner! Town Administrator Bob Buck said he must now check to determine if a town ordinance is needed to ban parking along the street. The town must also order no parking signs and posts, so it will be weeks before the ban takes effect. In his letter to Mayor Amos, Martey states that "parking on the shoulder of Ocean Boulevard has already become a problem for me." A no-parking zone was established at the access point near Marley's home, but it extends only a short distance across the frontage of his lot. die i * i j? s u.*kAZ..Ll a- ut&mu ITAFf AMOIO At tUSAN US'" I ? off-duty when the bridge jammed, stands and a crowd anxious to depart the Island, hem after check-out, others just wonted to ind.

Other Action The board also agreed Wednesday to postpone action on a request from resident Dr. William Philbrick, who is asking that the town pay 40 percent of the cost of bulkheading the end of Durham Street. Philbrick owns the last lot on Durham Street and plans to bulkhead his lot. "I am asking the town commissioners to consider paying a portion of the cost of bulkheading 50 feet at the end of Durham Street," Philbrick wrote in a letter to Town Administrator Buck. "I am personally willing to pay 60 percent of the cost of the 50 feet if the town of Holden Beach will pay the remaining 40 percent." ft Our Sol li" ...dk ili 'Critical' transported by !.ife Khuht helicopter ' to Duke Medical i Killed in tin- accident were Cam- Hnf mie Dinette Stanley, 16, of Route It, ' ^ /(] I Box 1098, Shallotte and William Khett i ChrisanthaLs, 18. of P.O.
