If you are a resident of Holly Ridge, you are living in the best of worlds.Holly Ridge is in an
area where the residents are about five minutes from the beach, forty five minutes from
Wilmington and twenty five minutes from Jacksonville.  During the past few years, Holly
Ridge has by petition, extended its city limits (satellite annexed) areas that includes
developments such as Summerhouse, Sage’s Ridge, Neighborhoods of Holly Ridge, and also
new proposed developments on Morris Landing Road and Folkstone Road.The Holly Ridge
Station, south of town is now completed and  has a couple of businesses located there.  

Recently, new playground equipment was added to the existing equipment  at the park for
the enjoyment of the kids in the community.  The picnic shelters are available for rental as
well as the community Building for meetings, weddings, birthdays, family reunions, etc.  
These forms are on the town’s website @www.townofhollyridge.com and can be
downloaded at your convenience.  

To comply with the new state laws on recycling, the town has stepped up its efforts in
urging the citizens of the town to participate in the recycling program.  Currently the town
has a recycling container located at the town hall for the citizens of the town  only  to bring
their recyclables.  Everyone is encouraged to recycle but the container at the Town Hall is
for the  tax paying citizen’s convenience.  

The Town Council and the  town’s employees strive very diligently to clean up the town’s
appearance  and to attract potential homeowners and businesses, and  to  make Holly Ridge
a better place to live and raise a family.

The Town Council meets the 2nd Tuesday of each month  at 7:30pm at the Town Hall.  You
are invited to attend our meetings and get involved in what is going on in the town.
