The structure is the old United Carolina Bank building, formerly on the Yaupon Beach site where the Oak Island branch library is being built. The com missioners allocated $25,000 to move and relocate the building, in which the Brunswick County Airport Commission will rent office space. The airport is near the north end of the Oak Island bridge.

Satellite Dish Holden Board Ignores Attorney; Grants Variance For Homeowner BY DOUG RUTTER The Holden Beach Board of Adjustment, contrary to the town at torney's advice, granted a variance Monday that will allow an ocean front property owner to use part of the front-yard setback area. The variance will allow the own er, Linda Silber of Raleigh, to en croach 12 feet into the 25-foot set back and ultimately allow her to sell the property at 150 Ocean Boulevard East. Silber told the board Monday night that she planned to sell the lot and house, but couldn't do it without the variance. She said the lender wanted an assurance that the home could be reconstructed if it was de stroyed by fire. Because of erosion at the proper ty, Silber said the prospective new owners would not be able to rebuild without moving the home away from the ocean and into the setback area. "If I can't sell my property it's worthless, and that is a hardship," Silber said. Town Attorney Ken Campbell ad vised board members against granti ng the variance. He said the law does not allow variances unless ex isting conditions prevent an owner from using the land. Campbell also said the property owner had no grounds for requesting a variance in this case, because she had not been turned down for a building permit. "It's really a Catch-22 that the ac cident would have to occur first in order for you to have grounds to ask for a variance," said board chairman William Williamson. However, most board members rejected Campbell's interpretation. Trade In Your Trailer For A CUSTOM BUILT HOME * We Build And Finance ? Your Plan Or Ours ? ? 100% FINANCING (On Your Lot) * ?

"I interpret the rules differently," said Allan Dameron, whose motion to grant the variance passed on a 4- 1 vote. Larry Boyte, Crawford Hart and Marlene Thomas voted in favor of Dameron 's motion, and Williamson voted against it. Tom Morgan, speaking on behalf of the owner, said granting the vari ance would benefit the public be cause the town would lose tax base if the house burned down and could not be rebuilt. "This would allow us to rebuild on this site if this house were de stroyed," Morgan said. "I see no way this will really harm the public. We're not encroaching into areas that are needed for public utilities." In a similar case Monday, the board granted a variance to Nanabeth Rankin of High Point that will allow her to encroach 10 feet into the front setback at 114 Ocean Boulevard East. Morgan said the owner plans to move the house away from the ocean under the federal Upton-Jones program, which pays for relocation of structures threatened by erosion.
