Atlantic Beach: we want to hear Ocean open boulevard

BEACHES of the Atlantic - property owners said Thursday that they are not in favour of the opening of the ocean boulevard across the Atlantic Beach, and they do not understand why the question keeps soon.

Committee on planning the city held a public hearing Thursday night to remove barriers in place on the boulevard, North Myrtle Beach across the city at both ends of the route which would access.

Landowner said the issue was offering at least three times over the years and that they thought had been solved.

"I have been to three previous meetings where this was discussed," said Jesse Williams, who said the consensus was that people did not want the open road.

"I don't know how he has management plan [City] should be opened."

"Ask yourself why they closed in first place and why they want the open now," said Williams.

Several longtime owners and residents said a fence separating North Myrtle Beach Road was there when they arrived in the 1960s.

The road was closed to segregation to keep black vacationers in beach of the Atlantic and miscegenation with white sides.

Since then, road has never been reopened and has often been seen as a symbol of reluctance to cooperate with its voisins.North Myrtle Beach City surrounds the beach of the Atlantic, and the United States 17 is the only way in and out of the city.

"He does not keep other people, it is to maintain what we have in the city," said Robert Dolphin, who said he raised a family in the beach of the Atlantic.

"Why open now?", asked the resident of long date city and councilwoman Josephine Isom.

"It takes a boulevard to development."

Councillor Donnell Thompson asked for the discussion of the matter to a meeting of the Board during the summer, but the municipal administrator William Booker has requested that the issue be postponed to the City Planning Commission to investigate and make a recommendation to the Council members.

In the Thursday meeting, Pappas said she thinks Thompson has a project development, but that it did not go to the Council.

Booker said there was no plan of development before the city.

Planning Committee members decided meeting September survey mailed to property owners for their comments on the boulevard opening before making recommendations to the Council.

Booker said that investigations are due by November 1.

The results will be compiled by the Waccamaw Regional Council of Governments, which reviewed plans for open ocean with July Planning Commission boulevard.

"The investigation is not intended to be a vote," Booker said Thursday. "Just input the commission.Il is not a decision-maker.?

Commissioners - who probably will discuss the issue and the results of the survey meeting on 18 November - determined WRCOG administer survey so that there would be no aspect of manipulating the results.

WRCOG sent 245, responsible for investigations of the city.

Planning of the Board members Bruce Robinson said that the investigations are numbered, so there is no disclosure of the identity of anyone. ""We encourage people to send it," said Robinson.

Commissioner Derreck Stevens said "we will not make decisions in a vacuum, but get real gauge of what property owners."

Mark Hoeweler, Deputy Director General of the Waccamaw Regional Council of Governments based at Georgetown, he said there is a $600,000 project in large pane area transportation study transport for FY 2013, which begins October 2012.Le project improvement programme budget also belongs to the blueprint of the city, which was adopted in 2007.

Officials WRCOG wondered before October 2012 if the city plans to move forward with the projet.Si is not the case, the money could be used for another regional project, Hoeweler said.

"Why do we not find with a proposal to improve the existing streets?" asked to Williams, which emphasized a need for underground utilities.

"If they have the money, why not put the funds within the range of the Atlantic who do not have the terms of what they want to do?"
