PKS Reentry Pass Permitting (Continued from page !) This list gives only the highlights of our storm preparations and does not cover everything. We have a limited staff to accomplish these mission-critical items—and the staff simply did not have the luxury of time to spend issuing duplicate passes to replace ones that were lost before Hurricane Florence. At only three days away from landfall, Florence was a category 4 hurricane. Our staff needed to spend that time planning the evacuation of Pine Knoll Shores. Residents are encouraged to check their reentry passes now and make sure they know where they are. If you are unable to find your pass, stop by the public safety building at 314 Salter Path Road before May 31 and pick up a new one. Please be prepared to show your driver s license with your Pine Knoll Shores address, a utility bill with your address or your purchase/rental paperwork. We cannot issue a reentry pass without one of these types of documentation. If you are out of town and will not return before May 31, please email Natalie Gibble at ngibble@townofpks.com to make arrangements for your pass. Please note that there is a $25 fee for replacing a previously issued pass. Take care of this matter now. Our staff will no longer replace a lost reentry pass during hurricane season or days before a hurricane makes landfall. Thank you all for helping us improve our hurricane preparedness and response. *' ism Public Safety POLICE During December, there were 7 arrests; 19 911 hang-ups; 10 alarm activations; 9 animal calls; 8 disturbance calls; 34 assist Fire/EMS calls; 1 motor vehicle collision; 8 mutual aid calls; 192 traffic stops; 44 citations issued (ITspeeding, 1 stop sign/stop light, 7 registration/inspection, 16 license revoked/expired, 9 other traffic violations); 4 beach patrols; 333 business checks; 434 foot patrols; and 173 residence checks.
