Resident Appreciates Improvements at Shell Point Beach
{sidebar id=1}I would like to commend the Heaton Companies for their project at Shell Point. Those of us who have lived in this area for some time remember the camaraderie of breakfast at the restaurant with neighbors, the convenience of the marina and the fun of dancing to the band at the tiki bar. Those days at Shell Point have sorely been missed. The Heaton Companies are on a path to bring days like these back to this area.
I’m sure I would be joined by many Shell Point residents when saying that having the infrastructure improvements that the Heaton Companies have already constructed without the houses currently under construction on Walker Creek Dr. and without the planned houses to be constructed on the south side of the basin and on the beach would be perfect. Unfortunately, this is a “pipe dream” and completely unreasonable to expect. I believe the Heaton Companies are providing Shell Point with a best-case scenario of area development. That they are building code compliant structures with enclosed ground level areas similar to existing homes on Royster Dr., the Island Club and other areas of Shell Point is the focus here. I have not witnessed any deviation from the plans that were presented well over a year ago, including plans for the structures currently under construction. It seems so “yesterday” that objections to these plans have recently surfaced.
Thank you, Heaton Companies, for presenting a wonderful plan and executing it well to this point. Thank you for providing much needed infrastructure to our area…our quality of life has already been enriched. And thank you for the improvements to come.
And Commissioners, isn’t it time to provide Shell Point with a few paved roads to make Shell Point complete?
