Haneman tourney honors WB legend By Terry Lane Staff Writer

For the 18th straight year, anglers from across the area will come to Wrightsville Beach this weekend to remember a legendary local fisherman and boater while raising thousands for charitable organizations. The Capt.Eddy Haneman Sailfish Tournament, which starts with registration tonight, Thursday, July 27 at Bridge Tender Marina at 6 p.m., is expected to draw as many as 50 boats. Since its inception, the tournament has raised $125,000 for Lower Cape Fear Hospice and even more for various local children’s charities, said organizer Kit Taylor. With its 25 mile offshore boundary limit, Taylor said the tournament helps promote inshore fishing. “It lets the small boats that can’t do offshore participate in the tournament,” said Taylor. The sailfish release tournament will track winners by the number of catches. There will also be prizes for the largest n See HANEMAN Page 2

Flotilla

looks to add WB theme category to honor Sturdy By Terry Lane Staff Writer

To help remember one regular flotilla participant who died unexpectedly earlier this year, the North Carolina Holiday Flotilla Parade board will consider adding a special category starting this year that will honor boats with a Wrightsville Beach theme. The category will be named in honor of Paula Sturdy, a frequent flotilla entrant and supporter who died unexpectedly in January, and will award a $1,000 prize to a boat that judges deem best depict a Wrightsville Beach theme. Her husband Van Marr is working on details, with the prize money coming from donations made to the flotilla in Sturdy’s honor. “Her boats often reflected those themes, like the trolley, and we hope this award will encourage more boats to bring something local to the competition,” said North Carolina Holiday Flotilla committee member Linda Brown. She said the board would consider bringing in the new category because of Sturdy’s long commitment and dedication to the flotilla. n See FLOTILLA Page 2

After a change in the property’s ownership, developers are asking Wrightsville Beach to approve a new project that would bring residential housing units to the vacant lot by Johnnie Mercer’s Pier. The proposed project, conceptually titled “Atlantic View,” would bring 11 duplexes to the property under a new zoning category called “group housing” that will be reviewed by the Wrightsville Beach Planning Board on Tuesday, Aug. 1. The project was submitted by a development group called 19 E. Salisbury Street, LLC, with town documents noting that Wilmington-area homebuilder D. Logan would represent the project. n See PROJECT Page 2

Newcomer candidates talk development, dogs and bike safety By Terry Lane Staff Writer

Kissing babies at her campaign introduction event on Sunday, July 23, Pat Prince embraced the role as a candidate for the Wrightsville Beach Board of Aldermen, chatting with potential voters and kicking off what will be a competitive town election race in November. Prince is one of five candidates running for two open seats, four of which have never been elected to public office. “I know I don’t know it all, I’m more than willing to say that, but I will also take the time to listen and to learn,” Prince told more than a dozen supporters at the event at Jimmy’s at Red Dogs. She was one of two candidates to file for the board of alderman race before the Friday, July 21 deadline. Prince, vice president of the Wrightsville Beach Foundation, and Sounia Nejad Chaney, a local realtor, joined three candidates who filed around the July 7 beginning of the filing period. Chaney said that she was surprised in 2015 when none of the board candidates faced challengers. “I didn’t think that was right, there need to be more choices and some fresh ideas,” she said. The candidates for the open board seats include one incumbent, Henry “Hank” Miller, III., a local commercial real estate broker who’s been n See ELECTION Page 5

A DJ and electronic producer on a two-show stop in Wilmington performed a “pop-up” electronic dance music set on Figure Eight Island on Saturday, July 22. It was one of two island parties hopping in Wrightsville Beach on Saturday afternoon, as Palm Tree Island also hosted a large party. “GRiZ,” the stage name for Detroit-based DJ Grant Kwiecinski, performed the set in front of a hundred or more people, most who crossed Masons

Inlet in boats to reach the shore. Boaters in the area said the lowtide renegade DJ set could be staged there since the area below the high-tide line was open to the public. The DJ mixed songs of several eras together, even throwing in Michael Jackson, and drew a diverse crowd of onlookers from boaters in the area, while Wrightsville Beach police and lifeguards watched the event from across the inlet.

The award comes after more than $6,000 was donated to the flotilla in Sturdy’s name and Brown said more donations were expected to push the fund to $8,000-$10,000, keeping the award funded for at least a decade. Marr has committed substantial money to the award as well, Brown said. Before voting to approve the award, the committee will finish paperwork establishing details, which will likely include allowing the winner of the award to also win in other categories.

He piloted the Martha Ellen until it sank from debris in 1977, moving on to captain other boats. He died in 1994 at the age of 74.

Committee member John Andrews said that having the year on the shirt will make them more valuable to visitors, but said the board could risk having left over shirts, which could then be donated to local charities if needed.

The new proposal comes amid 10 years of vacancy at the property, which included proposals to raise the building height limit that were rejected by the Wrightsville Beach Board of Aldermen. The “Atlantic View” project meets the town’s 40-foot building height limit and comes after some change in ownership of the property. The town’s planning staff recommends approving the project, arguing that after 10 years of vacancy, the project may be the “highest and best use of this property.” The staff said the duplex unit will have less impact on the existing neighborhood that the approved mixed use project for that property, noting that it is next to existing residential duplexes and commercial properties. The site had originally been designated Tom Kievit of Coastal N.C. Real Estate LLC for a mixed-use development known as “The Helm,” which would have included shops and residential units. However, developers later wanted the town to approve a similar project that would have exceeded the height limit, arguing it was needed due to flood regulations which required higher buildings, a proposal that was ultimately rejected by the board of aldermen in October 2016. Following that, Coastal N.C. Real Estate LLC sold its ownership stake to 19 E Salisbury LLC for $2.7 million, according to county records, which reflect a declining value of the property. It was purchased in August 2005 by Seascape @ Wrightsville Beach LLC for $8 million and later sold to First Troy Spe LLC in July 2010 for $4.5 million, before ownership was transferred to Coastal N.C. Real Estate LLC. In the documents filed with the town, the

Prince said that the town’s 40-foot building height limits could be exempted for some properties and that the town should look for new ways to develop the other properties.

PUBLIC NOTICE The U. S. Coast Guard (USCG), Civil Engineering Unit Cleveland, is announcing the availability of the Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) to permanently relocate an 87-foot Coastal Patrol Boat (WPB) to an existing mooring location at Station (STA) Wrightsville Beach, Wrightsville Beach, New Hanover County, North Carolina. The USCG solicits comments as part of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process. The purpose of the proposed project is to ensure optimum readiness and enable the USCG to effectively meet operational and mission execution requirements in support of maritime safety and security operations. Homeporting of an existing 87-foot WPB and its crew to STA Wrightsville Beach is needed to enable Sector North Carolina to efficiently and effectively execute its operational missions within its area of responsibility. Interested parties are requested to express their views in writing on the Draft EA and the proposed project, giving sufficient detail to establish a clear understanding of their reasons for support or opposition to the proposed work. For additional information on this proposed action, please view a copy of the Draft EA to Relocate 87-foot WPB to USCG STA Wrightsville Beach, Wrightsville Beach, North Carolina posted at the below listed locations from June 29, 2017 through July 29, 2017: Northeast Regional Library, New Hanover County Branch 1241 Military Cutoff Road Wilmington, NC 28405 910-798-6371 Town of Wrightsville Beach Website: http://www.townofwrightsvillebeach.com/ USCG’s Website: http://www.uscg.mil/d5/PublicNotices.asp Interested parties should provide written comments on this proposed action no later than July 29, 2017 to: United States Coast Guard Civil Engineering Unit Cleveland 1240 East Ninth Street, Rm. 2179 Cleveland, Ohio 44199-2060 Attn: Mr. Gregory Carpenter, Chief Environmental Compliance

amendment,” which changes town ordinances, to allow for the group housing to be allowed in the C-2 zoning district. Once passed, the project would need to be granted a conditional use permit to meet specific requirements. Both measures will be reviewed by the Wrightsville Beach Planning Board on Tuesday, Aug. 1.

“There are plans that have been presented for some of these properties. We need to look at ways to bring in businesses that can provide commercial services so that the people who live here don’t have to worry about crossing the bridge,” she said. But Chaney said preservation of the town’s building height limits would be an element in her campaign. “I’m concerned about the cosmetic look of Wrightsville Beach,” she said. Chaney touted her experience in other leadership roles, including serving on the boards of the Fairfax, Va. Chamber of Commerce and an IBM-based technology international users group and as president of homeowners and parent teachers association. Chaney, who is currently learning to kiteboard, is also active in the Cape Fear Rotary Club. While it’s Chaney’s first run for office in Wrightsville Beach, she did unsuccessfully run for town council in Vail, Colo. “I earned a lot of votes and brought up new topics for discussion,” she said of the experience. “That’s what I’m going to try to do here.” Another issue Prince wants the board to look into is providing more space for dogs to run. “This is a dog town and we need to find a spot somewhere for a dog area, so people can have a place to let their dog run,” she said.

Chaney also said that there should be more opportunity to walk dogs in Wrightsville Beach and said she would be supportive of efforts to open up the beach to dogs in morning and evening hours, with potentially some restrictions. Prince said a recent incident where a friend bicycling on the south end was brushed into trash cans by a car demonstrated the need for more bicycle safety policies, including creating more bike lanes. “This is not a bike safe place,” Prince said.

It was amazing.” Some fans traveled to Wilmington to see his set, including Foster Boerman from Charleston, S.C., who brought a flag with the DJ’s logo. “All of these people are die hard fans,” Boerman said. “He does something like this once a year, but it’s never been like this.” “You love to see this,” chimed in Killian Burke, also from Charleston. “It was wild, this is one of the craziest things I’ve done.” Email terrylane@luminanews.com

Toxic Headlines Cloud GenX Issue Over the past several weeks, our community has had a robust discussion about the health of the Cape Fear River. Historically, the river has served as critical infrastructure supporting shipping, the port, power generation, jobs and water needs while also enabling a thriving recreational function and serving as a centerpiece for Wilmington’s downtown. Among its many benefits, the Cape Fear River provides a crucial water source for our region and is vital to our future prosperity. Due to numerous technological advances, regulatory oversight, and millions in infrastructure investment, our waterways and drinking water are the healthiest in our history. The revelation regarding the presence of the perfluorochemical compound known as GenX in the Cape Fear River has understandably raised questions. Until more is known about this compound,

we are pleased that Chemours announced the company will capture, remove and safely dispose of wastewater containing the byproduct GenX. In addition, the EPA, North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality and the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services have taken quick action regarding this matter. We applaud these actions and have asked Governor Cooper to ensure that the agencies involved maintain a rigorous, yet urgent, process to drive improved clarity as quickly as possible. We encourage everyone to rely on the facts, as they become available, to assess the situation and take appropriate actions There are checks and balances in place to permit and regulate the other government and industry uses which have valid intake and discharge permits upriver. Through regulations like the Clean Water Act, our watersheds

are much healthier than they were just a generation ago. Our regional utilities follow strict guidelines on the treatment and distribution of millions of gallons a day of clean, reliable drinking water to hundreds of thousands of people. To g r o w a n d d i v e r sify our regional economy, having an industrial and manufacturing component is necessary. Adequate water and sewer lines for industrial sites will further the county’s ability to recruit and retain high-quality jobs for all of our citizens and advance the County’s vision for economic growth. As we move forward, we encourage the discussion regarding the Cape Fear River to be based on facts, answering the questions at hand, and ensuring that our community’s future is not negatively impacted by potential contaminants or toxic headlines.

Hook, Line & Sinker Last Full Week of July Keeping Anglers Busy By Skylar Walters

As has been the case for the majority of the month, the fishing has been pretty decent depending on the particular day and the species being targeted. This week is no different and with water temperatures remaining in the lower to mid eighty degree range, the fishing, but especially the catching has proved to be difficult but not impossible. We’ll start with the surf and pier anglers, where fishing along the Wrightsville Beach waters can be very difficult considering the amount of swimmers enjoying the cooling effects of the ocean in order to get away from the scalding sands. Anglers have adapted and are mostly fishing early and late in the day, which helps to limit the amount of vacationers in the water they experience as well as limiting the temperatures that both the angler and the fish have to endure. Fishermen using fresh shrimp have been managing some nice virginia mullet and some black drum fishing the deeper sloughs and holes during times of high tide. Sand fleas, of which there are some around the beach, have been catching the larger mullet. Beaches along Surf City, Topsail and also Carolina Beach have also been reporting some good catches of fish. Reports by those using cut bait and finger mullet have reported a few red drum and bluefish. Off the piers. Anglers fishing the surf are reporting the same catches with some spanish mackerel and bluefish coming from Gotcha Plugs. Anglers targeting spanish mackerel reported a fairly good week of fishing with most fish well above the minimum size, but careful measuring is still needed to ensure that magic 12 inch fork length. Small kings are still being reported mixed in so careful identification is also needed. While

some anglers rely on the lateral line to ID the difference, the black dorsal fin is a sure fire way to make the fish you just landed is a spanish mackerel. Anglers are reporting trolled Clark Spoons are working well while some are also managing some sight casting to schools of fish, which have been plentiful just outside of the inlets. King mackerel reports of decent keeper fish have been limited near the beaches, but there are plenty of reports of small fish being caught. Yet again, this is a prime time to remind anglers about identification and the minimum size limits, of which king mackerel are 23 inches. Plenty of menhaden have been running the beaches and are also stacked up in the waterway, so if live baiting is your preference, there’s no shortage. Other have been trolling dead baits and having just as much luck. Areas around Dallas Rock and The Dredge Wreck have all been holding some small fish with a few keepers mixed in. Shark encounters continue being topics of conversation with anyone using natural baits, both live and dead, especially while bottom fishing, which has been the case for several years. If bottom fishing is something you want to do, then water depths over 100 feet will help eliminate those encounters. Few Gulf Stream reports have been coming in but a few boats ventured out towards the Steeples and reported some action from wahoo and dolphin. Unfortunately the weekend forecast is not looking conducive to offshore outings, mainly because of the increased threat of storms which often come with winds and lightning. Considering it’s early in the week, forecasts will change and may allow some window of opportunity for those wanting to fish the blue water.

Neighborhood Wrightsville Beach Police 2017 Officer of the Year The Wrightsville Beach Police Department named its 2017 Officer of the Year during the July 10 board of aldermen meeting. Chief Dan House presented Officer D. Warren with the award, praising the officer for his professionalism and his success coming from the police academy. Warren, a former Army Infantryman who was born in El Paso, Texas and went to school in Durham, joined the Wrightsville Beach Police Department after completing the police academy at Cape Fear Community College. He’s been with the department since 2015. “I asked him to do us proud and he’s done that and then some,” House said during the presentation to the board. House told the board that Warren has stood out for his well-rounded abilities, including staying calm under pressure. “He can go from a tense situation to working with kids without missing a beat,” House said. Warren’s colleague, Capt. J. Bishop, said that the officer’s demeanor is what makes him good at his job. “He doesn’t let people get under his skin,” Bishop said. “He’s able to calm things down and de-escalate.” - Terry Lane
