Commissioners approve closure of small portion of Longshore Road at property owner's request
Summary
Brunswick County commissioners adopted a resolution to close a small cul-de-sac segment of Longshore Road at the request of property owner Diane Miller; the closure was described as affecting one parcel and will allow the owner to consolidate lots.
At the Sept. 15 meeting, county staff presented a petition under N.C. Gen. Stat. §153A-241 to close a small portion of Longshore Road near Shalope Point Loop Road. The request was filed by Diane Miller, who said she and her husband Kent Miller had combined three contiguous lots and seek to close the short segment that previously provided access to a now-combined parcel.
Staff showed survey maps and noted the area lies within an AE flood hazard zone and that closing the segment requires adoption of a resolution; Diane Miller spoke in support, saying the closure would allow the land to be rezoned into her property. Commissioners asked clarifying questions about access and setbacks and then moved to adopt the resolution. A voice vote was taken and commissioners indicated approval.
Next steps: Staff will complete the administrative steps required by statute to finalize the closure and update records; any required post-closure notices or title changes will proceed under the county’s land-records process.
