Legally & Physically

Dune Protection Underway

STONE HARBOR - Mayor James G. Wood and the Borough Council have appointed a Citizens' Committee to install fencing on the eastern side of the borough’s sand dunes, from 80th to IZlst

Sts.

Chairing of the committee is Dorothea Pfeiffer, along with Ted Pain, administrative assistant to Council, and Councilman Arden Hand. Other citizen members include Andy Schroder, Baldwin Streett, Bob Henderson, Margie Otton, Ted Reese and Bill Laskey. Maintanence Dept, employee Bob Chew and Mark Hornsby are working with the group. THREE MORNINGS a week fencing is being installed from 121st north to Duplex Ordinance Introduced AVALON - Borough Council met July 11 to initiate plans to preclude altering the cubic size or type of structures permitted in the duplex district on the other side of the 21^ St. bridge. By its pldhned ordinance, any building which isn't in conformity with the required 40 ft. frontage may continue in use provided no alterations are made to enlarge cubic size. Many residents and council officials would rather see single-family homes built on empty lots than to have the community looking like a "Miami Beach" with endless rows of duplexes creating problems stemming from large group rentals and often absentee landlords. While many are in favor of the proposed ordinance, many are equally as opposed. One citizen, Joe Serrini, claimed the ordinance would result in his unduly taking as much as "onc-third of a property loss" due to depreciation. Trial action on the ordinance will take place 8 on July 2S at the i hall. -AnncSchoen /rnm

lllth St. From there the group will start at 80th St. and work south until eventually the entire

borough is covered. • Because of Council’s

belief that protection by the sand dunes can be a significant factor in decreasing storm damage, an ordinance has been passed providing for protection of the beaches, and besides authorizing penalties for violations, the ordinance also encourages the development of sand

dunes.

HENCEFORTH IN Stone Harbor it will be unlawful for any person, either on foot or oq any form of conveyance, to tresppss within the areas enclosed by the fencing east of the\ Borough s ocean bulkhead It will also be unlawful to remove or relocate from the beaches, sand or dune grass or other vegetation or to damage any part of

the fencing.

Violation of this ordinance is subject to a fine up to $500.00, and or 90 days

imprisonment.

by Jwonwtf • O'May Touring Old Stone Harbor "Ladies and gentlemen, the island tour buggy will leave ih five minutes."*

Tour buggy?

Yep. At the turn of the century, when the Risley Brothers were running the Stone Harbor Special from Philly to 80th St , prospective land buyers were escorted to the horse-drawn buggto* and treated to a tour past 40^ ft dunes covered with bayberry bushes, groves of virjPb cedar and salt marshes, along a beach that was 300 ft\ V

wide at low tide

MOTOR BOAT TOURS ALSO were planned, and one could come over from Anglesea for 10 cents a ride!

Where have all the cedars gone?

They have fallen in the path of progress. My Stone Harbor history book shows a group of these stately trees in “vicinity of 110th St.," but I couldn't find a solitary

one that far downtown.

THE SANDPIPER ART GALERIE at 109th and Second has several cedars surrounding it, and Connie Sands has illuminated the largest one with hundreds of twinkling silver bulbs. She says many songbirds call

that tree home.

Longtime residents remember "bayberry everywhere," but few recall the cedar groves. I think of a cottage as a tiny, one-story structure. The cottages that first appeared in Stone Harbor were

anything but!

ONE OF THOSE WAS THE summer home of Reese Risley at 84th and First Ave. When it was built about 70 years ago, it was right on the beach but the storm of 1914 prompted the town fathers to build a bulkhead 8,000 ft. long, and since that time other houses have sprung

up in between.

Reese Risley's cottage still stands as Holiday Manor. Eugene Bianucci and his wife Carmela have been the owners for the past 14 years and except for the addition of some bathrooms and necessary repairs the cottage has retained its original architecture. MRS. BIANUCCI TOLD ME that years ago. as Young’s Guest House, it was a really elegant watering place, with fountains and all that jazz surrounding it The Bianuccis maintain it as a homey and comfortable establishment and have sojourners from as far away as Kentucky. Carmela and Eugene have six children, and when Wildwood became too crowded they headed for Stone Harbor and discovered this cottage for sale Meander down First Ave. someday and count the cottages. You can spot them by the "Widow’s Walk" and "Witch’s Hat."
