Sunset Cou
Public hearings, a proposed
beachwear ordinance and a Ux>k at
plans tor lite area formerly known
as "Lol 1 A" arc among items on the
agenda for the Sunset Beach Coun
cil meeting Monday.
The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m.
at town hall with live public hear
ings. Chief of these arc plans for un
derground utilities and the proposed
annexation of a portion of Sea Trail
Golf Course, a business district
along N.C. 179 and a portion of
Long Bay Development thai in
cludes the Food Lion groccry store.
Sunset Beach intends to place all
electric power lines and cable tele
vision lines underground within the
town ' limits, assessing property
owners to recover the entire cost of
the project.
Assessments would be based on
front footage and would be payable
30 days after notice that the assess
ment roll has been confirmed or on
an annual installment basis with the
first payment due, with interest, 60
days after the assessment roll is
confirmed.
The estimated cost per foot for
electric and cable lines is S2.40 per
linear foot. Owners of some houses
would also have to pay to have the
service to their homes taken under
ground and for installation of new
meters.
The area proposed for annexation
extends from the town limits along
the south side of N.C. 179 to N.C.
ncil Faces Cr
9<)4, forming a 36-acrc strip now
zoned commcrcial that fronts the
Seaside Station subdivision.
On the north side of N.C. 179 the
new town limit would skirl around
the Sugar Sands I patio home sites
and Sugar Sands II development
area. While excluding the home
sites, the tract would take in nine
holes of the Dan Maples golf course
then extend across N.C. 179 to take
in primarily the Food Lion shopping
complex. The planned location lor a
new NCNB branch at the intersec
tion of N.C. 179 and N.C. 904
would also be included.
At the Saturday meeting of the
Sunset Beach Taxpayers Associa
tion, President Clelus Waldmiller
said he has several questions regard
ing the annexation he hopes will be
answered at the Dec. 3 hearing.
"They could be asking the town
to buy a pig in a poke," he said.
Waldmiller said he doesn't under
stand why the petitioners are seek
ing annexation by the town. A pre
vious annexation effort was linked
to efforts by the grocery store to ob
tain the right to sell beer and wine,
which was resolved when county
voters approved an ABC referen
dum last November.
The town is anticipating annual
revenues of at least S77,(XX) from
the annexed area, for a projected ex
penditure of S12,<XX) to S15,(KK), he
said.
"If they're willing to pay 5>77,tXK)
a year you can figure they want
owded Agen
S77,(KX) in services," he speculated.
Both Waldmillcr anil Jack Thom
as, a member of the board of direc
tors of the Sunset Beach Volunteer
Fire Department, raised concerns
about the adequacy of the town's
water supply.
Waldmillcr questioned whether
the town has adequate water to ser
vice additional areas.
While not taking a position on the
annexation, Thomas said the fire de
partment already has concerns about
the water supply. II there were a fire
at Ocean Isle Beach or Shallotte, he
said, pressure on the trunk line run
ning to Sunset Beach would not be
sufficient for fircfighting there.
Also, it was noted, the town must
maintain an adequate reserve in iLs
tanks for firefighting purposes, a re
serve that is difficult to maintain dur
ing the peak-usage summer months.
Town officials have appealed to
county officials to move ahead with
proposed improvements in the wa
ter system in southwestern Bruns
wick County, w ith no commitments
to date.
Oilier hearings are scheduled on a
minor amendment of zoning district
lines in one section of Sea Trail
Plantation, a routine update of the
town's Hood damage prevention in
surance study anil supporting maps;
and an ordinance aimed at protect
ing the frontal dunes from human
disturbance.
The council is also expected to be
da Monday
gin discussion of plans lor "Lot I A."
a 100-foot-wide strip ol occanlroni
property also known as Sunset
Boulevard from Main Street to the
Occan. Alter accepting the strip lor
public use as a street, members ask
ed the planning board to propose a
suitable plan for its use.
Waldmiller said at Saturday's SB
TA meeting that lie had been "un
successful" in proposing ideas to
the town for use of the proj>eriy, in
cluding development of a drop off
point lor unloading beachgoers and
their gear before returning to anoth
er parking area, parking and/or an
access and seating area for the el
derly and physically handicapped to
enjoy a view of the ocean.
Also on the agenda are the audit
report for 1989-90, an employees'
Christmas bonus, a proposed ordi
nance to regulate bcachwcar. in
cluding prohibition of "G-string" or
"thong" type bathing suits on the
public beach and a community fa
cilities plan.
The plan outlines anticipated cap
ital needs for town departments and
the fire department. Town Admini
strator Linda Fluegcl would like to
sec council members begin budget
ing money in a special fund each
year to help finance needs identified
in the plan. These range from re
modeling of the existing town ad
ministrative offices to matching a
state grant for development of a
sewer system.
