Oak Island Pier Zoning Stands Firm | Wilmington News
Description
Oak Island’s town council stands firm on keeping the iconic pier and event center zoned for recreational and commercial use—rejecting a proposal that would’ve opened the door to gas stations and other general businesses. The move aims to preserve the beachfront’s character and block single-family homes, while the planning board pushed for tighter controls. This historic pier, rebuilt after Hurricane Florence and standing 27 feet tall, remains unchanged for now, with only planned renovations to the nearby Pier House restaurant and coffee shop. The town is searching for a zoning balance that protects the property without stifling future development.
