Conserve the Point Topsail Beach
Conserve the Point Topsail Beach
The Issue
Breaking News!
Town of Topsail Beach officials announced that the applicant has withdrawn his application for rezoning The Point: the property is now available for purchase. The Point is a 150 acre never-developed single parcel of land at the south end of Topsail Island in the Town of Topsail Beach, NC. The NC Coastal Federation Report, October, 2019, titled "Development Potential of McLeod Family" by K. Allen, Coastal Advocate stated this area is not zoned for development, is located within an Inlet Hazard Area, is located within a Coastal Barrier Resources Act Unit by the US Fish and Wildlife Service, is not eligible for public utilities nor federal flood insurance, and is not compatible with the Town of Topsail Beach's zoning ordinances or CAMA Core Land Use Plan! It is a nesting area for migratory birds and for the endangered loggerhead sea turtles.
The Conserve The Point – Topsail organization is now launching a public private partnership to purchase the entire 150-acre property and place it into permanent conservation, so that all future generations of people and wildlife will continue to enjoy and experience The Point as it is today. To that end, Conserve The Point - Topsail is working collaboratively with Town officials, conservation groups and other organizations. This is an exciting opportunity to conserve one of the last undeveloped tracts of land on a North Carolina coastal barrier island.
Our work is not over! Your support and donations remain critical for us to achieve our goal of permanent conservation of this island treasure.
A generous donor in partnership with Conserve The Point-Topsail will match all gifts up to $5,000 raised on GivingTuesday, November 28th until December 31st. Gifts of $25 become $50. Gifts of $100 become $200 and so on.
