County seeks $200K grant to study Knobbs Creek drainage

Pasquotank County will seek funding for a study of the Knobbs Creek watershed, starting with an application for a North Carolina Resilient Coastal Communities grant. “Drainage isn’t in the forefront of everybody’s minds, but that can change overnight,” said County Planning Director Shelley Cox. “It’s very important that we make sure that Knobbs Creek is healthy and can support the development that’s occurring in the community.” County planning staff will apply for a $200,000 grant to pay for the study. According to an agenda item presented to the Board of Commissioners, hydrologic and hydraulic modeling of the watershed would help the county better understand drainage constraints, future flood conditions and possible ways to reduce flooding. Cox presented the grant opportunity during the board’s Nov. 2 Finance Committee meeting, and commissioners unanimously approved her request to apply. Cox told the board the county has been “fortunate enough” to receive three previous grants from the Resilient Coastal Communities program. Two paid for resilience plans, one for Newland and one countywide. The third, for $150,000, helped the county develop its new Unified Development Ordinance, which will be presented Nov. 16. “Obviously we’ve seen a lot of development in that watershed over the last

Candidates work polls in final hours of Election Day

With 90 minutes left before the polls closed Tuesday, three candidates were still working the parking lots, shaking the last hands of a campaign season that one of them said never really shuts off. Two of them worked the parking lot of Evangelical Methodist Church, 820 Okisko Road: Timothy Stallings Jr., a first-time candidate for the at-large seat on the Pasquotank County Board of Commissioners, and Sam Davis, a candidate for N.C. House of Representatives District 5. Davis, 73, owns a local real estate company. He served one term as a county commissioner, from 1998 to 2002, and was appointed to the board again in 2023. He currently holds the at-large seat Stallings is seeking. At 6 p.m. Tuesday, Davis hurried to greet voters and the children who came to the polls with their parents. “The turnout has been steady. We’ve seen a lot of voters during this campaign,” Davis said. Stallings greeted voters as they walked toward the entrance and as they left. When he approached one voter and called out, “Good to see you, preacher,” the man paused, laid a hand on Stallings’ shoulder and offered a 15-second prayer. The moment eased what Stallings described as a grueling
