Lands End Subdivision
Page Two
9. PROTECT DESCRIPTION
The project site is located approximately 500 -600 ft from the western terminus of SR 1138 in
the Supply Township of Brunswick County. The property is situated near the point at which the
AIWW and the mouth of the Shallotte River intersect. It is bordered by SR 1138 which runs
parallel to the AIWW on it's southern side and Shallotte River on it's western side. A recently
graveled road extends north from SR 1138 the length of the site and culminates into a cul -de -sac.
All of the lots have been platted and are assessed by the existing graveled road. The entire
property is approximately eight acres divided into 1 \2 acre lots intended for single family
residences. Lots 1 through 9 are waterfront lots which border Shallotte River, however, there
was no navigable water within hundreds of feet of any of the lots. The area adjacent to the
waterfront lots can best be described as densely vegetated coastal wetlands comprised mostly of
Soartina alterniflora and Juncus roemerianus.
The applicant has obtained a ten foot easement extending south from SR 1138 to the AIWW.
Within the easement, the applicant proposes to construct a four foot wide walkway and pier
elevated over coastal wetlands, extending into the AIWW, and terminating in a 10' X 16' L-
Head. The total length of the proposed walkway, pier and L -Head is approximately 240 ft. The
proposed pier and L -Head would have been permissible under a General Permit, but came under
CAMA major permit review when it was disclosed that it would be a community pier for the
exclusive use of residents of the proposed Lands End Subdivision. That disclosure also brought
the proposed subdivision under CAMA major permit review.
Within the area proposed for the subdivision site, all waterfront and marshfront property will
have approximately 50 to 80 ft easements at the waterward ends of which the applicant will
retain ownership. They will be recorded as parcels 1 -A through 9 -A and will be for the
exclusive use of the lot located adjacent to the easement area, i.e., Lot 1 has exclusive use of
Easement Area 1 -A, Lot 2 has exclusive use of Easement Area 2 -A, etc. The subdivision
covenant prohibits the construction of any walkways in the easement areas unless approved by
the developer and approved in writing by Windy Point Estates, Inc. It was disclosed during
conversation with the applicant that the intent of retaining ownership of the easements is to limit
the length of walkways to the waterward boundary of each parcel and prohibit the construction
of piers hundreds of feet long to reach the deeper waters of Shallotte River.
The surrounding waters of Shallotte River and the AIWW are classified as SA waters by the
Division of Environmental Management. The waters adjacent to the site are not Primary
Nursery Areas. All adjacent waters are open to the taking of shellfish.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS
The upland portion of the proposed project would convert eight acres of sparsely wooded,
undeveloped property to a residential development. This site has been cleared and vegetation
thinned in the past in order to give it the appearance of a subdivision by the owner, but there
has been no development within 75 ft of MHW nor in coastal wetlands. Since the applicant does
not propose to build residences but only to sell the lots, the built -upon surface cannot be
calculated with any degree of accuracy. However, adherence to rules concerning 30% lot
