Public Hearing Regarding Amusement Arcades in Duck

In the past year, a vendor requested a Town special permit to operate an amusement arcade business.  There was significant community opposition to this, and the Town ended up denying the request based upon the Town Code at the time.

There is a new request to change the Town Code to permit some amusement arcade businesses.  I believe the Town Planning Board reviewed this and recommended against a change to the Town Code, but the Town Council appears to want to discuss a potential change anyway.  Before they do that, they want to conduct a public hearing to get community feedback on this issue.

The public hearing will be held on April 2nd at Town Hall.  Here's a link for it:  https://ducknc.gov/news/town-council-to-conduct-a-public-hearing-on-wednesday-april-2-2025/

If you would like to provide positive or negative feedback on this issue, you can attend the public hearing or email your feedback to the Town at [email protected]
