Dear Mrs. Burnham:
This correspondence is in reference to your objection to a reconfiguration proposal
to the Spooner's Creek North Iviarina located in Spooner's Creek, Carteret County.
The Spooner's Creek Homeowners Association (HOA) has proposed minor
modifications involving the shifting of finger piers, deletion of decking, the
relocation of tie pilings, etc. all within the same footprint of the existing marina.
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has given your objections
careful consideration and has determined that the project is consistent with the
pertinent regulations of the Division. Therefore, on July 13, 2000 the Division
issued CAMA General Permit #25696-C to Spooner's Creek Homeowners
Association for the reconfiguration work.
If you wish to appeal this permit decision, you may file a request with the Director
of the Division of Coastal Management, Department of Environment and Natural
Resources within 20 days of the permit decision. Unfortunately, I was under the
impression that your CAMA concerns had been addressed and therefore, did not
send you a letter stating the Division's action and your right to appeal. I hope this
does address your concerns with this Division. However if you wish to appeal, I
will argue to our attorney on your behalf, for the right to do so. If you have any
questions regarding this matter, please don't hesitate to contact me at my Morehead
City Office (252-808-2808).

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Myatt:
This correspondence is in reference to your objection to a reconfiguration proposal
to the Spooner's Creek North Marina located in Spooner's Creek, Carteret County.
The Spooner's Creek Homeowners Association (HOA) has proposed minor
modifications involving the shifting of finger piers, deletion of decking, the
relocation of tie pilings, etc. all within the same footprint of the existing marina. It
also serves as a follow up to your letter of 8/2900 and your recent telephone call
regarding the proposed realignment of your slip located within that marina facility.
The existing configuration of the dock and in particular your designated slip is
currently in compliance with the rules and regulations of the Division of Coastal
Management. On a similar note, the proposed and currently permitted
reconfiguration of the marina facility is also consistent with those same rules. This
Division has not requested any change to the existing dock configuration and does
not have a preference for either configuration. In addition, if requested the
Division could also modify the existing permit to allow for the last two slips to stay
as they currently exist and the remaining slips reconfigured. Any proposed
development is up to the applicant, which in this case would be the Spooner's
Creek North Homeowner's Association.
I have also enclosed a copy of the Third Parry Hearing Request. Unfortunately,
like my August 25, 2000 letter stated, I failed to notify you of the final permit
decision within the 20 -day time period. But if you wish to appeal, I will plead
your case to our attorney. If you have any questions regarding this matter, please
don't hesitate to contact me at my Morehead City Office (252-808-2808).

Dear Sir:
In response to your letter of August 25, 2000, we would like to appeal the permit issued to North
Spooners Creek Marina plans for the following reasons:
Mr. Myatt is confined almost entirely to a wheelchair and the changes proposed will make it
virtually impossible for him to have access to our boat. Mr. Myatt is not stable enough to walk
on a finger pier.
We had been told that our boat slip would not be changed in any way but when the permit was
issued, we discovered that Mr. Ballard had chosen to put our slip at an angle. This is not a
necessary move to recapture the unusable boat slips they seek in the reconfiguration. Yet again,
Mr. Ballard made changes without presenting the plans to those who would be most affected.
CAMA approved our plans to straighten our slip and put in a boat slip in April, 1997. We also
received a Federal Permit in June, 1997.
The attached letter was in our mailbox this morning (8-29-2000) telling us to move our boat.
We have no intention of moving our boat and as a matter of fact, we could insist that the marina
be more user friendly to handicapped people.
We would appreciate your assistance in halting the plans as they have been proposed to changing
our slip.
Thankyou.

Dear Mr. Jones:
June 7, 2000
We are writing to request that you not allow any changes to the Spooner's Creek North marina or
dockage.
We purchased a lot in Spooner's Creek North which was sold to us with a boat slip. Once we
closed on the lot we were assigned a boat slip by the Homeowner's Association of Spooner's Creek.
We then obtained a permit and built a boat lift. We own a boat that is currently in this boat slip.
In our most recent Homeowner's Association Newsletter we read that they are trying to
reconfigure the boat slips to create additional spaces. We did not receive notice that there was to be
a vote on this issue. Today we were informed by some residents in Spooner's Creek North that
they are in fact going to obtain a permit and begin reconstructing the dock this weekend. They plan
to reconfigure our boat slip. We have not been advised of this from the Homeowner's Association
nor have we been told what they are going to do to our boat lift - and consequently our boat which
is there.
We are thus asking that you do not grant a permit for this. We need to have sufficient time to
contact our lawyers and have them investigate our rights in this matter.
Thank you so much for your attention to this matter.
Since y,

Dear Ms. Barrett:
It is my understanding that a permit application has been made for the performance of work
and/or improvements for the marina area at Spooners Creek North.
I have an assigned slip with a boat lift in the marina and have not been advised, of what the
Proposed work involves, such as movement of any existing structures, water lines, or power lines,
nor have I been afforded any design or drawing which depicts the proposed work. As a property
owner and more specifically as the owner of a boat and a slip assignee I feel any proposed work
involving improvements would require the association to notify all slip assignees and present their
Proposal (with dr wings) for their comments and approval. pproval. Since this has not been done and with
the quesiiorl ofli1st I ity to those who house boats in slips in the marina, I wish to issue a FORMAL
OBJECTION to i suing a permit for any work performed in the marina until such time as all the
Proper association members have been notified and provided the opportunity to review the
changes being proposed and register comments, questions and approval.

RE: Spooners Creek North Boat Slip Reconfiguration
Dear Terre:
Enclosed is a copy of the Declaration of Restrictive Covenants for
Spooners Creek North, a partial copy of the subdivision plat, and
a copy of the Burnham deed for Lot 16.
The Declaration is dated August 22, 1985 and is recorded in Book
523, Page 263, Carteret County Registry. The Burnham deed was
granted two years later and is dated June 10, 1987 and is recorded
in Book 568, Page 219.
In the Declaration of Covenants the developers of the subdivision
clearly subordinated or severed the riparian rights that otherwise
would have been appurtenant to Lot 16. I refer you to Article 14
on page 18 of the Covenants. Here it states in relevant part:
"The Developer has or shall construct piers and
appurtenant boat docks and boat slip facilities which
shall extend from Lot 15 and Lot 16 as shown on the map
of the subdivision.... The pier, appurtenant boat docks
and boat slip facilities shall be Restricted Community
Use Areas, the use of which shall be restricted to the
Owners of Lots 1 through 14 and the Owners of lots 35
through 52, saving and excepting the Owners of lots 38
and 41. The Board [of directors of the owners
association] shall have the authority for the assignment
of boat slips to the individual Owners and each owner of
the above-described lots shall have access to and use of
one boat slip in the Restricted Community Use Area... The
Board shall have all powers and obligations regarding the
Restricted Community Use Area as it has in administering,
operating and regulating and providing for the
maintenance of the Community Use Areas. ... The Owners
entitled to the use of the Restricted Community Use Areas
- 2 -
JUN 19 2000
are hereby granted and conveyed such rights a dC6'Lq,�77�7 ME
over, upon, and across such areas as are reeorra3x y—
necessary and appurtenant to the use and enjoyment of
said areas for the Owners, their families, guests and
invitees."
I also call your attention to Article 1 on page 2 under the
definition of "Community Use Areas." In the second paragraph is a
statement:
"The Developer and/or the Board may designate certain
Community Use Areas as Restricted Community Use Areas,
the enjoyment, benefit and use of which may be restricted
to certain designated Owners to the exclusion of other
Owners within the Subdivision. ... As of the date of this
Declaration, the Restricted Community Use Area consists
of the piers, boat slips, boat docks, wooden walkways,
and related appurtenances located upon and extending from
lots 15 and 16 on the recorded plat of the Subdivision."
In Article 3, paragraph A on page 4 is the statement with respect
to the purposes of Spooners Creek North Association, Inc.:
"To own, manage, maintain, and operate the Community Use
Areas, Restricted Community Use Areas, and facilities
located therein; to enforce the restrictions contained
herein; and to make and enforce rules, and regulations
governing the Owners' use and occupation of Lots,
Community Use Areas and Restricted Community Use Areas."
In Article 4 on page 5 is the statement:
"Management and administration of the affairs of the
Community Use Areas and the Restricted Community Use
Areas of the Subdivision shall be the sole right and
responsibility of the Corporation [the owners
association]."
The Burnham deed is expressly subject to the terms of the
Declaration. Please note in the deed the following restriction:
"The above described property is conveyed by GRANTORS and
accepted by GRANTEES subject to the covenants,
conditions, and restrictions appearing in those
restrictive covenants recorded in the office of the
Register of Deeds of Carteret County, North Carolina in
Book 523 at page 263 and is further subject to such
easements, restrictions, and rights of way as appear of
record in the Carteret County Registry."
The original developers were Ned T. Grady, George L. Edwards, Jr.,
Donald L. Henson, and their wives. The developers have told us
a�V
JUN 19 2000
- 3 -
that they were concerned about their ability to sell % M'J �: i$Taus
le
of the Declaration and the marina facilities they built in front_
the lot. As a result, they reduced the price of the lot on the
sale to the Burnhams in consideration of the fact that there was to
be no riparian rights.
I hope this information will clear any remaining obstacles for a
LAMA permit to the Owners Association so that they can reconfigure
the slips per their application.
Sin e ly,

To Whom it May Concern:
This is to advise that we, as homeowners and members of the North Spooners Creek
Homeowners Association, object to changes made to the Marina for the following
reasons:
1. We have not had the privilege to see the plans that has been drawn up to re -configure
the marina.
2. We have a boat in our assigned slip in the marina on which we have installed a
boat lift and built a dock beside our boat and have paid and installed the electrical
lines.
3. We have not agreed at any time for our boat to be moved or our slip changed in
any way, form or fashion.
4. Should any changes to the marina be approved by CAMA, we will not move nor agree
to move our boat or lift or dock and the North Spooners Creek Association President
as well as the chairman of the marina and the contractor involved, will be engaged in a suit
for any and all damages to our property.
Respectfully submitted,
Mr. & Mrs. J. Harold Myatt
