Cape Fear Community Land Trust bought this home in Castle Hayne for a low price and is now selling it as a permanent affordable housing option. (Port City Daily photo/Alexandria Sands)
CASTLE HAYNE –– Volunteers of the Cape Fear Community Land Trust got their hands dirty Wednesday tidying up the yard of a revitalized home in Castle Hayne that will forever be preserved as an affordable property through deliberate deed restrictions.
The land trust completely renovated the red brick house on Blossom Street, and aims to put it on the market by July. Originally bought for $60,000, it’s targeting roughly $250,000 for the flipped home, which qualifies for purchasing through a USDA loan.
The murder of George Floyd last Memorial Day reinvigorated the public outcry for increased accountability of police. (Port City Daily photo/file)
WILMINGTON ââ A year from the death of George Floyd, the development of a citizens review board to oversee police actions and check for potential misconduct is making slow progress.
Community members have demanded the city form a police oversight committee for years, since 2013 when Brandon Smith was killed in a controversial police-involved shooting in Castle Hayne. The murder of Floyd last Memorial Day reinvigorated the public outcry for the issue.
Citizen review boards are set up to hear appeals of complaints against law enforcement officers which otherwise would only be investigated by the department itself. At least five other North Carolina metropolitan cities have such committees.
And late last year, the new Wave board, now entirely comprised of city and county staff and officials, officially
But Commissioners Woody White and Pat Kusek decided not to run again. Instead, two new Republicans came in: Deb Hays and Bill Rivenbark. Neither had a grudge against Wave, and things started to change behind the scenes.
At a joint meeting of the city council and the county commissioners in April, Chair Julia Olson-Boseman announced a surprising change of heart.
“Funding commitments by the county and the city are not enough to fund the type of system we need and want, she said at the April 27 meeting. So while Wave develops the best system for our community, the county and city must work together to determine a dedicated funding source to ensure the new system is achievable and viable, well into the future.”
