West Bank Development - Act Now - Comments Close June 28
- Now is the time to advocate for the environmental conservation and historic preservation of Eagles Island and Point Peter!
- Make your voice heard, before New Hanover County adopts amendments to their Comprehensive Plan that would classify the West Bank as "Downtown Riverfront." This place type would support greater development that may endanger the area's ecosystems, historic structures, and cultural resources.
- PUBLIC COMMENT ENDS JUNE 28.
- Stand with us as we advocate for responsible development: Alliance for Cape Fear Trees, Bellamy Mansion Museum, Cape Fear Audubon, Cape Fear River Watch, Cape Fear Sierra Club, Eagles Island Central Park Task Force, Historic Wilmington Foundation, League of Women Voters of the Lower Cape Fear, NC Coastal Federation, NC Gullah Geechee Greenway Blueway Heritage Trail, and NC NAACP.
- It only takes seconds to make your voice heard! A coalition of local environmental and historic preservation organizations and activists have prepared a comment email that you may send as is—or edit as you see fit.
- Simply enter your information and click "Start Writing." You'll be walked through the steps—it takes just a moment to preserve and protect the West Bank!
