PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant proposes to expand the existing docking facility by adding a new 8' x 20' section of floating dock. Kings Landing Villas HOA, Inc. Page 2 . 9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION The project site is•located at 202 Kings Landing Court, adjacent to the AIWW, in Hampstead, Pender County. To find the property, from the Wilmington Regional Office, take Highway 17 North from Wilmington approximately 14 miles and turn right onto Country Club Drive. Continue along Country Club Drive approximately 1.0 miles and turn right onto Kings Landing Road. Follow Kings Landing Road approximately 1.1 mile and turn left at the 90 degree curve onto Kings Landing Court. The subject property will be located on the right hand side of the road, approximately 0.10 miles from the entrance, at unit # 202. Existing structures on the project site include a 4 -unit condominium complex, storage building and 4 -slip private docking facility. The project site is approximately 19,602 sq. ft. (0.45 acres) and is vegetated primarily with native trees, domestic grasses and ornamental landscaping. The project site has approximately 85 linear feet of shoreline fronting the AIWW. The existing 4 -slip docking facility was constructed inIthe late 80's and the permit history has been difficult to locate; however, a CAMA general permit ( #65086) was issued to Kings Landing Villas c/o Vern Hawkins in January 2015 for the conversion from a floating horseshoe shaped dock to a fixed horseshoe shaped dock (same location). The current docking facility consists of a 6'x 240' access pier, 10'x 16' platform, 6'x 40' fixed - "spine" connecting two 4' x 25' fixed finger piers. Four boat lifts are currently installed, one on each side of the existing finger piers. The Pender County 2006 Land Use Plan classifies adjacent waters and high ground portion of the property as Resource Protection. The waters of the AIWW in the location of the existing structure(s) are classified SA by the Division of Water Resources. They are NOT designated as a Primary Nursery Area (PNA) by the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries and they are OPEN to the harvest of shellfish. PROPOSED PROJECT "The applicant proposes to expand the existing docking facility by adding an 8' wide x 20' long floating dock section along the northern side of the existing platform, within the interior footprint. The proposed floating dock would connect to the existing fixed platform (along the landward side) and would extend approximately 33' toward the high ground. According to the applicant, the floating dock is necessary for safe water access while loading /unloading passengers and gear throughout all tide cycles. As designed, the expansion would in the total number of possible slips at this property from four to five. Currently, water depths surround the existing facility,, and the proposed expansion, range from -2.0' to -5.0', relative to Normal Low Water. 10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS The proposed structure would incorporate approximately 160 sq. ft. of Estuarine Waters and Pubic Trust Area along the northern side of the existing docking facility. The proposed structure would extend approximately 20' landward of the existing facility and should not be considered a hazard to navigation. The proposed structure would be located within the existing footprint of the existing docking facility. The structure would conform to both the 1/4 width rule and the established pier lengths. The proposed structures would not encroach into the adjacent 15' Riparian Corridor Setback Area requirement. Minor increases in turbidity should be expected during construction. Submifted'by: Jason Dail Date: November 6, 2015 Office: Wilmington Kings Villa HOA 202 Kings landing Ct, Hampstead, NC 28443 Narrative: Dear Committee, We have four boat lifts at our dock that are on a fixed elevated deck. We are finding it difficult to access our boats and safely enter the water from the lifts. We would like to install one- access floating docl on ,Korth side of the main dock to better serve our needs. We hope you will understand our request and allow us to proceed with this project.
