requirements with the approval by the Beau Rivage Board of Directors. Supplemental
information regarding recorded agreements between Beau Rivage and the Golf Course

Staff Recommendation(s)
Purpose of proposed gates needs to be clarified for the record.

responsibility of the affected parties.
Written agreement from County Emergency Management, New Hanover
Regional Hospital, and County Sheriff Department pertaining to emergency
service delivery must be presented to County Fire Services prior to gate
installation.
Gates will be installed in accordance with County Fire Services standards.

Hole Developers, LLC to consider the road re-designation of the public
streets in Gable Run to private. The project is located near the 500 block

Gable Run Project History
TRC approved Gable Run site plan for a total of 45 residential lots in January,
2015
Plan approval came with public roads built to NCDOT standards and other
conditions
To date, no construction has commenced; no final plat(s) have been submitted.
Page 4 of 5
PE Tripp’s Request
Gable Run was intended since preliminary site plan approval to have publically
designated roads, with eventual dedication for maintenance through NCDOT. A cursory
review of the road network outside the project (Old Oak Road) and associated
improvements/upgrade/repair was acceptable to my client, Hoke Developers. Design of
the on-site street facilities was provided by NCDOT. After the construction drawings
were submitted, additional comments were provided by NCDOT, which has led to an
additional cost of $325,000. Some of the cost over-run goes beyond the improvements to
Old Oak such as Jacqueline Drive (public) and Rochelle Drive (public) that were built in
the 1970’s but not taken over by NCDOT. (See attached request & punch list from Tripp
and NCDOT respectfully).
Staff Recommendation(s)
Staff recommends that the roads in Gable Run remain public with original
repairs/upgrades being made to Old Oak Road only. Future acceptance of the
roads by NCDOT would prevent a re-recoding of the plat. HOA covenants will be
required addressing stormwater and road maintenance until such time as the roads
are accepted by NCDOT.
All terms and conditions imposed by the TRC in the January, 2015 preliminary
approval will remain in force with the exception to condition # 3 if road re-
designation to private is approved. If approved, adopted private road standards
may necessitate design adjustments to the project.
3:50 p.m. Item 5: River Bluffs: Phase 3 (Planned Development) – Request by Norris
& Tunstall, Inc. for Chair Road Associates/River Bluffs Development to
consider approval of 105 lots. The project is located at the western end of
Chair Road.
River Bluffs Project History
Master plan approval by the Board of New Hanover County Commissioners in
March, 2011 for 738 units
To date, 421 units have received preliminary site plan approval. A final plat for
phase one has been approved and recorded.
Low Impact Development Techniques (LID) have been applied to the project and
are being coordinated by County Engineering.
Off-site road improvements based on the May, 2010 TIA will be constructed after
200 homes are constructed and occupied.
