(Courtesy Surf City livestream)SURF CITY — A rezoning to usher in a 118-room hotel failed in Surf City this week.
According to Surf City Public Utilities Director David Price, SpringHill Suites is estimated to take up 9,000 gallons a day.
Devin Staley with Blue Ridge Engineering, also working on the project, gave a real-life scenario as to why Surf City needed the hotel.
Only one other hotel is on the mainland in Surf City — a four-story, 110-room Hampton Inn being built 0.2 miles from the proposed SpringHill Suites.
“I know one hotel is under construction, but Surf City can support another one,” Staley said.
