SHORELINE THEY'LL STAY Sunset Beach Rejects County Reauest To Rename Streets BY DOKI COSGROVE til KtiANUS Sunset Bcach plans to keep Shoreline Drive West and East just the way they arc. At its regular meeting Monday night, the town council turned down a request from the county regarding road name changes. The board also set public hearings on several proposed policy amend ments. The request to change road names came from Lee Hitchcock, 911 coor dinator for the Brunswick County Planning Department, said Town Administrator Linda Fluegel in a telephone conversation Tuesday af ternoon. He asked if the town would be willing to rename Shoreline Drive West, in the area from Bona parte to the town hall, to Beach Road. Hitchcock also requested that the north side of Shoreline Drive East be renamed Shoreline Drive Southwest. The idea, Ms. Fluegel told the council Monday night, was to make 911 scrvicc easier when rescue squads must search for houses. Councilman Ed Gore said he thought there is "no genuine need" for such an action since most rescue squad volunteers arc natives of the area or at least very familiar with the rcimmiinirv's rtvwls V ~ ? "1 can't sec how it could help to change it," he said. "We can't ratio nalize the benefits." Ms. Fluegel said she would call Hitchcock this week to tcii him thai the town doesn't want the change. Public Hearings Three public hearings are sched uled just prior to the council's March business meeting, as well as another in April.

STAFF PHOTO BY DORl C GUOGANUS SUNSET BEACH has begun steps to annex an area that includes the new South Brunswick branch of the Shallotte post office, located on /V.C. 90-1 at Seaside. Due mainly to equipment delays, Shallotte Postmaster Frank Bringoli said it may be mid-March before the office opens for business. cedcd by a public hearing regarding extension of the town's extraterrito rial area (ETA) through the Old Georgetown Road and N.C. V04 area. Council members will also hear comments nn the town Planning Board's recommendations for amending the sign ordinance and for rezoning the town's water tower site so as to make it suitable for business use. Communication equipment owned by a private business is locat ed on the tower. Another hearing is set April 6 on the proposed annexation of Lots 10 through 13 of Seaside Center, which includes the new South Brunswick Branch post office on N.C. 904, and Lots 13 through 16 of Seaside North. Monday nighi, the council unani mously approved a resolution declaring its intention to annex the area. Polirv ChunfliN Council members also approved several changes in town policy. The council approved the Vested Rights Provision that dictates that a developer riiuSt siulc his or her in tcntions when receiving permits for building within the town limits. Also, the town won't be able to change the zoning of a vested rights area for two years, which would pre vent a builder from losing the ability to use the land its indicated. A public hearing was held Monday night regarding the provi sion, but with no comments voiced. An amendment was also ap proved by the council stating that builders must put up a deposit be fore wnrlrino on or npar water lines * "O "" ~ ? to cover possible damage-related costs. The amount of deposit, the new water ordinance states, is left to the discretion of the iuwu administrator. The council changed Section 151.04 of the zoning ordinance, which regulates penalties ievied against developers who leave trash and debris on a construction site. The council voted to increase the forfeitable deposit of $100 to S300 and lo make the rule cffcctive in the extraterritorial zone as well as inside the town limits. The council discussed changes in the town's street ordinance, but de cided simply to incorporate the state's minimum construction stan dards into the town's regulations. While noting that the state regula tions arc strict on type of material to be used and the depth of the streets, council still voted unanimously to use the state's rules. Councilwoman Mary K. Griffin said that she likes using the state's guidelines. "Why argue with the state?" she asked. Other Business In other business: ?Police Chief D.B. Bucll showed the council a plaque he received from the N.C. Department of Transportation recently for attaining a scatbell safety rate higher than 70 percent in 1991. ?Council members voted unani mously lo ask the N.C. Department of Transportation to release the town's share (S64.32) of Region O funds to the Cape Fear Council of Governments. ?Ms. Flue gel announced thai the county will set up a recycling center along N.C. 904 by March 1.
