The owners of Island Harbor Marina are proceeding with plans to redevelop the marina with improved wet slips, a new dry stack facility, a new retail store, and a new waterfront restaurant.  Development plans have been submitted for review by Town staff, and will be considered by the Planning Board at their February meeting.  The Board of Commissioners will then conduct a final review of the plans after the Planning Board review is complete. 

 

The new marina will not include a daily boat launching facility, however, the Town and the NC Wildlife Resources Commission (NC WRC) are proceeding with the construction of a new public boat launching facility adjacent to Chapel By The Sea.  The owners of Island Harbor Marina have agreed to keep their daily boat launching facility open until the new Town / NC WRC facility is open in late 2010.
