RE: DENIAL OF CAMA MINOR DEVELOPMENT PERMIT - APPLICATION NUMBER-
406-13
PROJECT ADDRESS- 5305 Ocean Drive, Emerald Isle, NC
Dear Ms. Miller:
After reviewing your application in conjunction with the development standards required by the
Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) and our locally adopted Land Use Plan and Ordinances, it is my
determination that no permit may be granted for the project which you have proposed.
This decision is based on my findings that your request violates NCGS 113A-120(ax8) which
requires that all applications be denied which are inconsistent with CAMA guidelines. you have applied
for a permit to install two swimming pools within the oceanfront setback. The exceptions to the Ocean
Hazard setback requirements, found in 15 NCAC 7H .0309 allow for one of several types of structures to
be located within the Ocean Hazard setback. This exception does not allow for multiples of each of the
listed structures. Therefore, I find that your request is inconsistent with these use standards.'
Should you wish to appeal my decision to the Coastal Resources Commission or request a
variance from that group, please contact me so I can provide you with the proper forms and any other
information you may require. The Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City must receive
appeal notices within twenty (20) days of the date of this letter in order to be considered.
Respectfully yours, jr) I&
