EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
• Mission Statement: The Town of Kill Devil Hills supports and encourages
efforts, programs, and initiatives to provide and maintain safe. *convenient.
environmentally compatible public facilities to accommodate resident and
visitor passage to and from its shorelines.
• The ocean and estuarine waters bordering Kill Devil Hills provide residents
and visitors with a variety of recreational and commercial opportunities.
• The provision of public access sites benefits diverse groups of people.
• The Town can provide visitors with facilities such as parking, designated
walkways, and litter receptacles. Visitors will have a more pleasant
experience. The Town will minimize the impact of visitors on seaside and
estuarine neighborhoods and ecosystems.
• The Town adopted its first shoreline access plan in 1979. The plan was
updated in 1992, and subsequently in 1998.
• In the past several years, the Town has followed the guidelines set by the
1979 plan and 1992 update and developed and/or improved numerous public access
facilities.
• The Town has updated its shoreline access plan in order to address the present •
concerns and anticipated future needs of a growing community.
• This update provides an inventory of shoreline access facilities in Kill Devil
Hills and provides model standards for access development.
• This update outlines a set of objectives for the provision of shoreline access
facilities and suggests priorities for meeting these objectives.
• Shoreline access planning was also discussed and included in the 1997 Land Use
Plan Update. Surveyed respondents were asked to indicate their opinion about
the expenditure of public funds to provide public shoreline access facilities.
Support was given for use of public funds to develop and maintain shoreline
access within Town.
• Concerning the use of local funds to construct ocean beach accesses, 46.6% of
survey respondents agreed or strongly agreed, while 23.9% disagreed or
strongly disagreed, with this method of funding.
• Concerning the use of local funds to construct soundside accesses, 44.9b
agreed or strongly agreed, while 23.7% disagreed or strongly disagreed, with
this method of funding. Similarly, 44.3ro of respondents agreed or strongly •
agreed (as opposed to 23.8% who disagreed or strongly disagreed) that the Town
should purchase/acquire soundside property for public access to the sound.
• Many residents believe that more regulation of the use of certain beach
accesses needs to be studied and that placement of beach access facilities
needs to be studied, particularly with regard to placing them in the center of
Town versus each end of Town.
• A question concerning beach vending resulted in 79.0% disagreeing or strongly
disagreeing that vendors should be allowed on the beach.
• During the development of this update, several areas of issues and concerns
were identified and categorized into five topic areas. These are:
• Management and Administration
• Maintenance
• Possible New Facilities and Improvements to Existing Facilities
• Site Acquisition
• Funding
• Planning for shoreline access in Kill Devil Hills must take into account that
the Town has two distinct shoreline environments --the ocean beach shoreline to
the east and the estuarine (soundside) shoreline to the west.
• Pedestrian walkways elevated above the dunes on pilings safeguard the dune and
facilitate beach visitors' travel between their automobiles and the beach.
• It is important to provide facilities for visitors' convenience such as
parking areas, restrooms, showers, and litter barrels.
• Kill Devil Hills provides lifeguard services at a number of access points and
considers emergency vehicle access in ocean access design.
• Recreation at the soundside shoreline typically involves nature watching,
boating, fishing, windsurfing, and sailing. Facilities which support these
activities include walkways, piers, benches, litter receptacles, parking. and
small boat launches.
• The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division
of Coastal Management, which oversees beach access programs at the State
level, divides improved shoreline access sites into three categories. The
Town utilizes these same categorizations. The three classifications for
access points are local, neighborhood, and regional. The model standards for
each of these are described as follows:
• Local access sites - provide pedestrian access with few, if any, other
facilities.
• Neighborhood access sites - may include parking (5-25 cars) and other
facilities.
• Regional access sites - parking for 25-80 cars, restrooms, and other
facilities.

Town of Kill Devil Hills
1998 Shoreline Access Plan Update
• I. INTRODUCTION
A. Shoreline Access Planning
Chapter!
The ocean and estuarine waters bordering the Town of Kill Devil Hills provide
residents and visitors with a variety of recreational and commercial
opportunities. These waters are part of the reason people move to Kill Devil
Hills. They attract thousands of seasonal visitors and are certainly the
community's greatest natural resource.
The provision of public access sites benefits diverse groups of people.
Access facilities provide convenient access to the public waters for residents
and visitors who do not live or stay on the waterfront. Abundant shoreline
access facilities will also attract visitors to the beach. When the Town can
provide visitors with facilities such as parking, designated walkways, and
litter receptacles, visitors have a more pleasant experience, and the Town
will minimize the impacts of visitors on seaside and estuarine neighborhoods
and ecosystems.
Recognizing the importance of shoreline access to the community, the Town
adopted its first shoreline access plan in 1979. This plan outlined
development goals and objectives for a number of the Town's access sites. The
plan was updated in 1992, and subsequently in 1998.
• In the past several years, the Town has followed the guidelines set by the
1979 plan and 1992 update and developed and/or improved numerous public access
facilities. EXHIBIT 1 and EXHIBIT 2 which follow as pages I-2 through I-4,
document the changes to soundside and ocean accesses since 1992. Growth of
both permanent and visitor population continue to increase the demand for
shoreline access facilities. At the same time, continued development of
private shoreline properties has increased reliance on public access areas.

Town of Kill Devil Hills
9998 Shoreline Access Plan Update
Chapter I
In 1998, the Town updated its shoreline access plan in order to address the
• present concerns and anticipated future needs of a growing community. This
update addresses issues and changing priorities of recent years. Sixteen public
and private access sites have been identified on the sound since 1979.
Additional access points have been identified on the ocean as well. This plan
incorporates these new sites and changes in demand for facilities such as
parking since 1990.
This update provides an inventory of shoreline access facilities in Kill Devil
Hills and provides model standards for access development. Based on an
assessment of current needs and anticipated future demands for public access,
this update outlines a set of objectives for the provision of shoreline access
facilities, and suggests priorities for meeting these objectives.
The preparation of this document was financed in part through a grant provided
by the North Carolina Coastal Management Program, through funds provided by the
Coastal Zone Management Act of 1972, as amended, which is administered by the
Office of Ocean and Coastal Resource Management, National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
Shoreline access planning was also discussed and included in the 1997 Land Use
Plan Update. Public input was solicited concerning shoreline access planning
through a community survey and at public meetings. A synopsis of this input
• follows, as well as the policy and implementation strategy from the 1997 Land
Use Plan. These policies have been further defined and expanded upon in this
update.
Surveyed respondents were asked to indicate their opinion about the expenditure
of public funds to provide public shoreline access facilities. Support was
given for use of public funds to develop and maintain shoreline access within
Town.
Concerning the use of local funds to construct ocean beach accesses, 46.6ro of
survey respondents agreed or strongly agreed, while 23.9% disagreed or strongly
disagreed with this method of funding.
Concerning the use of local funds to construct soundside accesses, 44.9% agreed
or strongly agreed, while 23.7% disagreed or strongly disagreed with this method
of funding. Similarly. 44.3% of respondents agreed or strongly agreed (as
opposed to 23.8% who disagreed or strongly disagreed) that the Town should
purchase/acquire soundside property for public access to the sound.
Many residents believe that more regulation of the use of certain beach accesses
needs to be studied and that construction of beach access facilities needs to be
studied. particularly with regard to placing them in the center of Town versus
each end of Town.
A question concerning beach vending resulted in 79.0a disagreeing or strongly
disagreeing that vendors should be allowed on the beach.

Town of Kill Devil Hills Chapter I
1998 Shoreline Access Plan Update
In the 1997 Land Use Plan Update, a policy and a strategy for its is
were developed.
POLICY: The Town supports the provision of access to the shores for residents
and visitors of Kill Devil Hills.
IMPLEMENTATION STRATEGY: The Town will continue to implement the Shoreline
Access Plan and fund improvements through Town funds and grants when feasible.
B. Mission Statement
The Town of Kill Devil Hills supports and encourages efforts, programs, and
initiatives to provide and maintain safe, convenient, environmentally
compatible public facilities to accommodate resident and visitor passage to
and from its shorelines.
C. Issues and Concerns
During the development of this update, several areas of issues and concerns
were identified and categorized into five topic areas. These, along with
specific observations, follow.
1. Management and Administration
Provision of space and equipment for ocean (rough water) •
• conditions warning signs.
• Provision of community bulletin boards and/or notice signs.
• Restriction of vehicle parking.
• Closure of accesses.
• Effectiveness of adopt -an -access program.
• Commercial fishermen conflicts - including dead fish in water and
on the beach.
• Ban beach driving year-round because of safety concerns.
• Closure of accesses from midnight to sunrise. Create exceptions
for businesses who provide a bond to keep accesses clean and free
of litter and debris from their operations.
• Create a permitting procedure for placard, poster, and flyer
distribution with a substantial bonding requirement to insure
that litter will be policed.
• Create/enforce special events procedures requiring prior
notification to and approval by the Town.
• Dogs are a problem on the beach - intensify enforcement.
• Problems with loitering or soliciting at accesses. Vagrants and
drunks creating problems. .Intensify enforcement efforts.

II. SHORELINE ACCESS DEVELOPMENT •
A. Local Shoreline Environment
Planning for shoreline access in Kill Devil Hills must take into account that
the Town has two distinct shoreline environments --the ocean beach shoreline to
the east and the estuarine (soundside) shoreline to the west. Each shoreline
supports different activities and requires site specific consideration of
particular environmental conditions.
1. Ocean Beach Shoreline
A sand beach and dune system characterize the ocean shoreline. The
primary environmental consideration at the ocean shore is the
protection of the.dunes which defend landward development from damage
in heavy surf. Vegetation stabilizes the dune. so it is essential that
ocean accesses are designed in a way which minimizes the impact of
pedestrian and vehicular traffic on the dune vegetation. Pedestrian
walkways elevated above the dunes on pilings safeguard the dune and
facilitate beach visitors' travel between their automobiles and the
beach.
The most popular recreational uses of the beach include swimming,
sunbathing, surfing, and fishing. These activities require few
facilities other than the beach itself. However, it is important to
provide facilities for visitors' convenience such as parking areas,
restrooms, showers, and litter barrels. While these facilities serve
to protect the beach from the impact of visitors, another important
consideration is protecting the visitors from potentially hazardous
conditions. To this end, Kill Devil Hills provides lifeguard services
at a number of access points and considers emergency vehicle access in
ocean access design. The Town is committed to providing lifeguard
services in areas of high swimming activity, giving careful attention
to lifeguard stand placement and the presence of mobile lifeguards in
an attempt to provide coverage from stand to stand.
2. Estuarine Shoreline
The estuarine shoreline consists of shallcw water, sandy beaches, and
marsh. The sound's particular mix of salt and fresh water supports a
delicate ecosystem. Development at the sound shoreline should avoid
excessive disturbance of the marsh. Recreation at the sound shoreline
typically involves nature watching, boating, fishing, windsurfing, and
sailing. Facilities which support these activities include walkways,
piers, benches, litter receptacles, parking, and small boat launches.
Careful initial construction will minimize the impact of shoreline
access facilities along the sound. The provision of access facilities
as needed will minimize impact from users.

1. Local Access
Chapter 11
The purpose of local access sites is to provide a way to the ocean or
sound for people who reside within walking distance of the water.
Preferably, local access points should be located no more than one -
quarter mile apart, unless regional and neighborhood accesses are
available. At a minimum, local access points shall include:
• walkway or maintained path from the road to the beach or
soundside shore
• CAMA identification sign and a sign stating applicable
Town rules or restrictions
• litter receptacle

B. Shoreline Access Categories
The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources. Division
of Coastal Management, which oversees beach access programs at the State
level, divides improved shoreline access sites into three categories. For the
sake of consistency, the Town utilizes these same categorizations. The three
classifications for access points are local, neighborhood, and regional. The
model standards for each of these are described as follows:
• Local access sites - provide pedestrian access with few, if any, other
facilities.
• Neighborhood access sites - may include parking (5-25 cars) and other
facilities.
• Regional access sites - parking for 25-80 cars, restrooms, and other
facilities.

2. Neighborhood Access
Neighborhood accesses are designed for people who choose to drive to
the shoreline. These access points are ideally located approximately
every one-half mile along the shoreline. Neighborhood access points
include:
• parking for at least 10 vehicles
• wooden walkway from the parking area to the beach or soundside
shore
• observation deck (where practical) at the top of the primary dune
or at the soundside shoreline
• bicycle parking rack
• CAMA identification sign and a sign stating applicable Town rules
or restrictions
• litter receptacles
• emergency vehicle access, if appropriate
• lighting as appropriate

3. Regional Access
P. L
Chapter11
Regional access points provide more facilities for visitors than local
or neighborhood accesses. Regional access facilities should be
accessible to the handicapped. Regional access sites have:
• parking for a minimum of 24 vehicles
• restroom and bathhouse facilities
• wooden walkways from the parking area to the beach or soundside
shore
• observation deck (where practical) at the top of the primary dune
or end of pier
• bicycle parking rack
• CAMA identification sign and a sign stating applicable Town rules
or restrictions
• litter receptacles
• emergency vehicle access where appropriate

D. Possible New Facilities and Improvements to Existing Facilities
1. Background
With the exception of Hayman Boulevard, access sites north of the
Avalon Pier are typically unimproved dune cut -through with little, if
any, parking. Diminishing distance between the ocean and NC 12 in this
area hinders the possibility of parking areas or walkway improvements.
However, demand for access parking in the area remains high.
South of Atlantic Street, Kill Devil Hills has only two local and one
private access points. At least one neighborhood facility is needed in
this area.
Parking.development proposals have historically generated opposition
from residents. In anticipation of this, the Town should work to
notify neighboring property owners, publicize the plans, and provide
opportunity for public comment. The Town should continue efforts to
minimize impacts from development of parking areas.
The high level of use at the existing ocean regional facility at
E. Ocean Bay Boulevard demonstrates the need for additional regional
facilities and additional parking at this facility. Locating a second
facility poses a challenge because of the limited availability and high
cost of oceanfront land, as well as concerns about the potential impact
of a regional access on adjacent uses.
Development in Kill Devil Hills is now primarily oriented along two
north -south routes, Croatan Highway and Virginia Dare Trail. As the
area between these two roads changes from residential use to more
intense usage, routes connecting the two will take on new importance.
Key routes between the two can become distinctive and attractive
corridors for pedestrian and vehicular traffic. Streetscape features
of a corridor include, but are not limited to, sidewalks, decorative
plantings, benches, ornamental litter receptacles, and ornamental light
fixtures. The corridor will have a beach access as a focal point. The
larger rights -of -way are the most appropriate locations for such
improvements. Corridor improvement projects could be instituted at the
time these roads are repaved or major commercial projects take place in
the vicinity.

2. Policy
The Town supports the construction and/or addition of shoreline access
• facilities and/or improvements thereto.
0
3. Implementation Strategies
• The Town will consider adopting a local policy of providing
restroom facilities at accesses other than regional access sites.
• The Town will consider the purchase or lease of property near
beach accesses in order to provide convenient parking and access
to the ocean beach.
• The Town will support private sector initiatives to provide
parking.
• The Town will consider using the unimproved Eden Street right-of-
way west of NC 12 for access parking.
• The Town will consider improving the 100' wide right-of-way on
Raymond Street for parking.
• The Town will consider the lease or purchase of property on the
west side of NC 12 near the Lake Drive ocean access in order to
enhance the space needed for a neighborhood access.
E. Site Acquisition
1. Background
With the growth of soundside neighborhoods in recent years, the need
for public soundside access facilities is increasing. In addition,
increased demand and limited supply of ocean accesses in both the north
and south ends of Town identify the need for additional facilities.
2. Policy
The Town supports the acquisition of access sites for improvements and
amenities when such acquisitions are determined to be in the best
interests of the citizens of and visitors to the Town.
3. Implementation Strategies J
• The Town will consider acquiring unbuildable lots on Kitty Hawk
Bay west of Bay Drive between West Hayman Boulevard and West
Bickett Street in order to provide public access and natural
areas along the shoreline.
• The Town will continue efforts to increase ocean access parking
capacity, particularly in northern and southern Kill Devil Hills.
• Consider acquisition of "private" or "homeowners" accesses where
possible.

F. Funding
1. Background •
Funding for beach access improvements has come from State matching
grants. Town funds, private sources and initiatives, and grants from
the Dare County Tourist Bureau. Town money for the matching grants and
for general maintenance has come from general fund revenues. This
plan does not anticipate any substantial change in.the means used to
fund shoreline access programs. However, additional options should be
explored.
2. Policy
The Town supports the expenditure of public (State. Federal, and Town)
funds and private funds for the construction, reconstruction,
maintenance, and rehabilitation of its shoreline accesses.
3. Implementation Strategies
• The Town will continue to participation in the North Carolina
Coastal and Estuarine Accesses grant program.
• The Town will continue to pursue Dare County Tourist Bureau
Restricted Fund grants for shoreline access development and
redevelopment. .
• The Town will continue to allocate matching funds for grants.
• The Town will continue to allocate general fund revenues to
operate, upgrade, and maintain accesses.
• The Town will pursue grants and consider capital outlays for land
acquisitions.
• The Town will pursue grants for upgrades and repairs to accesses.
• The Town will encourage developments with impact on shoreline
access use to contribute to the public beach access program in a
manner which directly addresses the impact of the development.
• The Town will analyze facility fee financing for shoreline access
development.
• The Town will encourage land donation for shoreline accesses.
• The Town will investigate alternative sources of funding,
including programs such as parking stickers and parking meters
and the use of Powell Bill funds, for improvement and maintenance
of accesses.
• The Town will lobby the State to allocate funding for maintenance
and rehabilitation of shoreline access facilities.
