Board to Consider Establishment of Social District
The Town has received a request from the owners of Fish Hut Grill, Flipperz Family Bar and Grill, and Thirsty Surfer to establish a "social district" on the property of the K&V Plaza shopping center located at the corner of NC 58 / Mangrove Drive / Old Ferry Road.
The Board of Commissioners will consider this request at its August 12 meeting.
If approved, it would be legal for patrons of these businesses to consume alcoholic beverages anywhere on the entire K&V Plaza premises, and thus move between different business establishments on the property with alcoholic beverages. It would continue to be illegal to leave the K&V Plaza property with an open container.
Proposed requirements include proper oversight by these businesses, proper signage and ground stenciling to mark the boundaries of the "social district", and the use of specially designed cups identifying the business from which the beverage was purchased.
