BRIEF SUMMARY: The applicant is reques$ng a special use permit to expand Snows Cut RV Park, which is an exis$ng campground and recrea$onal vehicle (RV) park ini$ally approved on 3.6 acres in 2018. The proposed expansion is on a 4.2 acre parcel directly west of the exis$ng park, and consists of the addi$on of 28 spaces, a second bath house, and a third access point to River Road. Access is proposed to be provided to River Road from the subject property at three points. Two access points to River Road were approved with Phase I, and visitors will be able to access this phase internally through an extension of one exis$ng access point to the east, while a new access point to the south of the “T” shaped parcel is proposed. A driveway permit from NCDOT is required for the third access point. The proposed expansion is an$cipated to generate an addi$onal 9 AM and 13 PM peak hour trips. Traffic Impact Analyses are required to be completed for proposals that will generate more than 100 peak hour trips in either the AM or PM peak hours. A TIA is not required for this project due to the minimal projected peak hour trip genera$on figures, however, proposed access points will be reviewed through the county’s Technical Review Commi>ee. The property to the north of the subject site has been used as a campground/RV park since the early 1960’s, and this proposal would provide an expansion of the first phase of Snows Cut RV Park, which was approved on the property to the east in 2018. The proper$es on the remaining boundaries are currently undeveloped. The loca$on is within close proximity to recrea$onal opportuni$es including Snows Cut Park, Carolina Beach State Park, and a>rac$ons in Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Fort Fisher. The 2016 Comprehensive Land Use Plan classifies the subject property as General Residen$al. The intent of this place type is to provide opportuni$es for lower density residen$al development and suppor$ve commercial, civic, and recrea$onal development. While recrea$onal uses are encouraged in General Residen$al areas, uses such as RV parks and campgrounds are not specifically addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. However, these uses are common in many communi$es along the North Carolina coast, including New Hanover County, and can support tourism and public access to water and natural resources.

Currently, this phase is developed with approximately 19 spaces, and the remainder of the spaces are expected to transition from the previously existing mobile home sites to RV sites by the end of 2021. • An existing single-family residence is located on the southern portion of the tract, and is proposed to remain for longer-term rental, potentially for a park manager. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 2 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 3 of 12 Proposed Site Plan with Staff Markups ZONING CONSIDERATIONS • Campgrounds and RV parks require a special use permit in the R-15 zoning district and are subject to supplemental standards within the county’s Unified Development Ordinance, which generally address dimensional standards (setbacks, minimum space area, roadway dimensions, etc.), access requirements, sanitation and utilities, open space, fire safety, and registration. • The subject property is adjacent to an existing campground to the north and Phase I of Snows Cut RV Park to the east. The properties to the west and south of the “T” shaped portion of the subject property are currently undeveloped and are zoned R-15. Proposed Access Point to River Road Approved Phase I of Snows Cut RV Park To River Rd Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 3 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 4 of 12 AREA SUBDIVISIONS UNDER DEVELOPMENT • There are currently no subdivisions under development in the vicinity of the subject property in the unincorporated county. Town of Carolina Beach Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 4 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 5 of 12 TRANSPORTATION • Access is proposed to be provided to River Road from the subject property at three points. Two access points to River Road were approved with Phase I, and visitors will be able to access this phase internally through an extension of the internal road network to the east, while a new access point to the south of the “T” shaped parcel is proposed. A driveway permit from NCDOT is required for the third access point. Access Points to River Road in all Phases of Snows Cut RV Park Phase I Approved Access Points Proposed Access Point Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 5 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 6 of 12 Access to Primary Arterial Routes • The proposed expansion is anticipated to generate an additional 9 AM and 13 PM peak hour trips. Traffic Impact Analyses are required to be completed for proposals that will generate more than 100 peak hour trips in either the AM or PM peak hours. A TIA is not required for this project due to the minimal projected peak hour trip generation figures, however, proposed access points will be reviewed through the county’s Technical Review Committee and will require a driveway permit from NCDOT. • Because there have been no recent traffic impact analyses in the area addressing nearby intersections, staff has provided the volume to capacity ratio for River Road near the subject site. While volume to capacity ratio, based on average daily trips, can provide a general idea of the function of adjacent roadways, the delay vehicles take in seconds to pass through intersections is generally considered a more effective measure when determining the Level of Service of a roadway. However, the available volume to capacity data indicates capacity currently exists in this area to support the expected additional traffic. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 6 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 7 of 12 NCDOT Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) - 2019 Road Location Volume Capacity V/C River Road 9500 Block (Near proposed southern access point) 3,800 16,700 0.28 Nearby Planned Transportation Improvements and Traffic Impact Analyses Nearby Traffic Impact Analyses: Traffic Impact Analyses are completed in accordance with the WMPO and NCDOT standards. There have not been any recent TIA’s in the vicinity of the subject site that would impact the nearby transportation network expected to be used by development on this site. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 7 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 8 of 12 Nearby NC STIP Projects: There are no nearby NC STIP Projects within the 1-mile radius of the subject property that include improvements that affect this proposal. ENVIRONMENTAL • The property does not contain any Special Flood Hazard Areas, wetlands, or Natural Heritage Areas. • The subject property is within the Telfairs Creek (SC;Sw) watershed. • Per the Classification of Soils in New Hanover County for Septic Tank Suitability, soils on the property consist of Class I (suitable/slight limitation) soils. The location of septic fields as shown on the site plan will be subject to approval by New Hanover County Environmental Health. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS SCHOOLS • Under the county’s performance residential standards, the subject property could allow up to 11 single-family dwelling units to be constructed at a density of 2.5 du/ac. Using the generalized historic student generation rate, development under the current zoning district can be estimated to generate approximately 3 students. • Under the proposal, these units are not typically occupied by full time residents with students in the school system as they will not be permanent units and are intended for transient lodging. CONTEXT AND COMPATIBILITY • The property to the north of the subject site has been used as a campground/RV park since the early 1960’s. • A Special Use Permit for a campground/travel trailer park on the property to the east of the subject site was approved by the Board of Commissioners in 2018, and this proposal would provide an expansion of that facility. • Adjacent properties to the west and south are currently undeveloped, and transitional buffers will be required along common property boundaries to these properties. • The location is within close proximity to recreational opportunities including Snows Cut Park, Carolina Beach State Park, and attractions in Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Fort Fisher.

Specific goals of the comprehensive plan are designated to be promoted in each place type, and other goals may be relevant for particular properties. Future Land Use Map Place Type General Residential Place Type Description Focuses on lower-density housing and associated civic and commercial services. Typically, housing is single-family or duplexes. Commercial uses should be limited to strategically located office and retail spaces, while recreation and school facilities are encouraged throughout. Types of uses include single-family residential, low-density multi-family residential, light commercial, civic, and recreational. Analysis The intent of the General Residential place type is to provide opportunities for lower density residential development and supportive commercial, civic, and recreational development. Though recreational uses are encouraged in General Residential areas, uses such as RV parks and campgrounds are not specifically addressed in the Comprehensive Plan. However, these uses are common in many communities along the North Carolina coast, including New Hanover County, and can support tourism and public access to water and natural resources. The proposed RV park and campground is located immediately adjacent to an existing campground and public recreation amenities. During their consideration of the 2018 special use permit for the existing Snows Cut RV Park, the Board of Commissioners found that the use aligned with the intent of the General Residential land use classification, would provide recreational opportunities, would have few impacts on existing residential neighborhoods, and was generally compatible with the existing residential and recreational development pattern in the area. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 10 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 11 of 12 STAFF PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS AND FINDINGS OF FACT: Staff has conducted an analysis of the proposed use and the information provided as part of the application package and has created preliminary findings of fact for each of the conclusions required to be reached to approve the special use permit request. These preliminary findings of fact and conclusions are based solely on the information provided to date, prior to any information or testimony in support or opposition to the request that may be presented at the upcoming public hearing at the Board meeting. Conclusion 1: The Board must find that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety where proposed and developed according to the plan as submitted and approved. A. The site is accessed from River Road, a minor arterial street that is operating with adequate capacity to accommodate the projected number of trips from the proposed development. B. A driveway permit must be obtained from NCDOT for the additional proposed access point to River Road. C. Water services must be provided and designed in accordance with Aqua’s standards. Wastewater services must be provided and designed in accordance with DEQ Division of Waste Management’s and NHC Environmental Health Services’ standards. D. The subject property is located in the New Hanover County South Fire Service District. E. The site is not located within any Special Flood Hazard Area. Conclusion 2: The Board must find that the use meets all required conditions and specifications of the Unified Development Ordinance. A. The site is zoned R-15, Residential District. B. Campgrounds and RV Parks are allowed by special use permit in the R-15 zoning districts. C. A site plan has been included as part of the special use permit application and demonstrates that the requirements of the UDO will be met. Conclusion 3: The Board must find that the use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property or that the use is a public necessity. A. The surrounding land uses include an existing travel trailer park and low-density residential. The subject property is not located adjacent to residential neighborhoods. B. No evidence has been submitted that this project will decrease the property values of adjacent or nearby properties. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 1 - 2 - 11 S20-05 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 12 of 12 Conclusion 4: The Board must find that the location and character of the use if developed according to the plan as submitted and approved will be in harmony with the area in which it is to be located and in general conformity with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for New Hanover County. A. The 2016 Comprehensive Plan classifies the area proposed for the development as General Residential, and the proposal aligns with the intent of this land use classification. The proposal provides recreational opportunities, is not estimated to generate a large amount of traffic on the roadway network, is an expansion of a previously approved RV park, and is located next to an existing travel trailer park in an area containing few single-family homes. Suggested Condition 1. Consistent with the Special Use Permit approval for the previous phase of Snows Cut RV Park, no camping activity of any kind can occur in any required bufferyard or in the 15- foot access easement that runs along the northern property line of the subject site.

BRIEF SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to rezone the subject property, approximately 71.36 acres, south of the Preserva+on Point Subdivision from I-2 to R-15 in order to include it within the subdivision, as residen+al uses are not permi0ed in the I-2 district. According to the applicant, the exis+ng lots adjacent to the subject property will be extended to the creeks and canals that connect to Smith Creek and no addi+onal lots will be added to the subdivision if this rezoning is approved. The subject property contains both swamp forest and brackish marsh. Due to these environmental features, addi+onal restric+ons have been placed on development, including a conserva+on easement that encompasses the en+re property. The purpose of the conserva+on easement is to maintain wetland and/or riparian resources and other natural values within the area, and to prevent the use or development of the area. In addi+on, the County’s performance residen+al standards do not allow marshlands to be included within net area of subdivisions when determining the maximum units allowed for the development. The area that could be used for net area would be determined if a modifica+on of the exis+ng subdivision plat is proposed. However, it would be unlikely to result in a significant change to the exis+ng subdivision as 123 lots have been pla0ed and roadway infrastructure has been installed. The applicant excluded approximately 5 acres of the I-2 zoning designa+on on the subject property from this request in order to limit poten+al impacts and addi+onal regula+ons on the adjacent remaining industrial land, as under current county zoning regula+ons, industrial uses next to residen+al land are subject to addi+onal structure setbacks. The areas where the proposed residen+al zoning abuts industrial land generally consist of environmental constraints similar to the subject site, making any poten+al industrial development more likely to be closer to Castle Hayne Road and to exceed any required setback from the new R-15 district. As no addi+onal lots are being created or added to the subdivision, the es+mated number of peak hour trips an+cipated with the proposed request is below the 100 peak hour trip threshold that triggers the ordinance requirement for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). In addi+on, the request is not expected to generate any addi+onal trips outside of those generated by the Preserva+on Point residents and guests. The 2016 Comprehensive Plan classifies the site as Conserva+on. The proposed R-15 rezoning, in conjunc+on with the Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 conserva+on easement on file for the subject property, is generally CONSIS TENT with the goals of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designa+on than the exis+ng I-2, Heavy Industrial zoning, would not allow addi+onal residen+al units to be built in this area, and would protect the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff recommends approval and suggests the following mo+on: I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designa+on than the exis+ng I-2 zoning, and with the conserva+on easement on record for the property, addi+onal protec+ons are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the request removes an industrial zoning designa+on from land that is environmentally sensi+ve and offers increased protec+on to the adjacent residen+al property and wetlands. In addi+on, the boundary of the proposed rezoning was designed to limit addi+onal regula+ons on the adjacent remaining industrial property. Example Mo;on for Denial I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. While I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designa+on than the exis+ng I-2 zoning, and with the conserva+on easement on record for the property, addi+onal protec+ons are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the surrounding community and the use will adversely impact the adjacent proper+es. COUNTY MANAGER'S COMMENTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS: (only Manager) Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 SCRIPT for Zoning Map Amendment Application (Z20-22) Request by Coastal Land Design, PLLC on behalf of property owner, Preservation Point Partners, LLC to rezone approximately 71.36 acres of land located in the 1500 block of Castle Hayne Road from I- 2, Heavy Industrial District, to R-15, Residential District. 1. This is a public hearing. We will hear a presentation from staff. Then the applicant and any opponents will each be allowed 15 minutes for their presentation and additional 5 minutes for rebuttal. 2.

Opponent’s rebuttal (up to 5 minutes) 3. Close the public hearing 4. Board discussion 5. Vote on the application. The motion should include a statement saying how the change is, or is not, consistent with the land use plan and why approval or denial of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest. Example Motion of Approval I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designation than the existing I-2 zoning, and with the conservation easement on record for the property, additional protections are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the request removes an industrial zoning designation from land that is environmentally sensitive and offers increased protection to the adjacent residential property and wetlands. In addition, the boundary of the proposed rezoning was designed to limit additional regulations on the adjacent remaining industrial property. Example Motion of Denial I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. While I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designation than the existing I-2 zoning, and with the conservation easement on record for the property, additional protections are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the surrounding community and the use will adversely impact the adjacent properties.

Although the residential lots will extend into these conservation resources, this entire area was recorded as a Conservation Easement (MB 68/PGs 388-389), and is subject to conservation covenants, conditions, and restrictions (DB 6375/PGs 2757-2764) that limit development on the subject property. Historic The marsh areas of the property were once used for rice production. Archaeological No known archaeological resources Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 2 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 3 of 12 HISTORY OF PRESERVATION POINT  In 2017, a preliminary plan for a performance residential development consisting of 98 lots (Preservation Point – formerly River Breeze) was approved for multiple parcels directly to the north of the subject site. Later that same year, the area to the northwest of the subject site was rezoned to a Conditional Use R-15 district and a Special Use Permit was issued for a community boating facility located in the Northeast Cape Fear River consisting of 98 boat slips (Z17-09).  Following the approval of the community boating facility, the area to the northeast of the subject site was rezoned from I-2 to R-15 and B-2 in 2019 to expand the development, establish an additional access point, and provide commercial uses to the Preservation Point residents and surrounding community. Below: Subject Site and the Adjacent Subdivision. ZONING CONSIDERATIONS  The applicant is proposing to rezone the subject property, approximately 71.36 acres, south of the Preservation Point Subdivision from I-2 to R-15 in order to include it within the subdivision, as residential uses are not permitted in the I-2 district. According to the applicant, the existing lots adjacent to the subject property will be extended to the creeks and canals that connect to Smith Creek and no additional lots will be added to the subdivision if this rezoning is approved.  The conservation resource map indicates that the subject property contains both swamp forest and brackish marsh. Due to these environmental features, additional restrictions have been placed on development, including a conservation easement that encompasses the entire property.  According to the Conservation Declaration, the purpose of the conservation easement (“area”) is to maintain wetland and/or riparian resources and other natural values within the area, and to prevent the use or development of the area. The Conservation Declaration does, however, exempt the construction and related use to the boardwalk, kayak/canoe launches, and boat slip accesses that are associated with the community boating facility and amenity island for the subdivision. The conservation easement does not restrict the public from accessing navigable waters of the Unites States or any surface waters within the area. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 3 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 4 of 12 Below: Approximate Location of Conservation Easement and Remaining I-2 Zoning  In addition, the County’s performance residential standards do not allow marshlands to be included within net area of subdivisions when determining the maximum units allowed for the development. The area that could be used for net area would be determined if a modification of the existing subdivision plat is proposed. However, it would be unlikely to result in a significant change to the existing subdivision as 123 lots have been platted and roadway infrastructure has been installed.  The applicant excluded approximately 5 acres of the I-2 zoning designation on the subject property from this request in order to limit potential impacts and additional regulations on the adjacent remaining industrial land, as under current county zoning regulations, industrial uses next to residential land are subject to additional structure setbacks.  The areas where the proposed residential zoning abuts industrial land generally consist of environmental constraints similar to the subject site, making any potential industrial development more likely to be closer to Castle Hayne Road and to exceed any required setback from the new R-15 district. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 4 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 5 of 12 AREA SUBDIVISIONS UNDER DEVELOPMENT TRANSPORTATION  Access is provided to the subject property via the Preservation Point Subdivision that connects to Castle Hayne Road (NC 133). In addition, there is a point of egress using Brentwood Drive (SR 1313) which connects to Castle Hayne Road approximately 900 feet to the north of the entrance to the subdivision. Primary and Secondary Access Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 5 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 6 of 12  As no additional lots are being created or added to the subdivision, the estimated number of peak hour trips anticipated with the proposed request is below the 100 peak hour trip threshold that triggers the ordinance requirement for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA). In addition, the request is not expected to generate any additional trips outside of those generated by the Preservation Point residents and guests.  Because a TIA is not required to analyze transportation impacts, Staff has provided the volume to capacity ratio for Castle Hayne Road near the subject site. While volume to capacity ratio, based on average daily trips, can provide a general idea of the function of adjacent roadways, the delay vehicles take in seconds to pass through intersections is generally considered a more effective measure when determining the Level of Service of a roadway. However, the available volume to capacity date indicates capacity currently exists in this area. NCDOT Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) - 2019 Road Location Volume Capacity V/C Castle Hayne Road 1600 Block (south of Brentwood Drive) 13,000 16,700 0.78  A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) for the Preservation Point Subdivision was approved by NCDOT and the WMPO in August 2019. Per the approved TIA, Phase 1 will consist of 123 single-family detached residential dwellings (including the existing 98 lots approved in 2017) and 27 multi-family attached residential dwellings. The full build of the site (2023) will consist of the above mentioned residential dwellings, a 5,000 square foot day care center, a 3,000 square foot high-turnover sit-down restaurant, a 2,000 square foot coffee/donut shop with drive-thru uses, and a small office building for 20 employees.  The TIA required the developer to install roadway improvements including a driveway at the entrance of the subdivision with one lane for ingress and left- and right-turn lanes for egress. The developer is currently in the process of constructing these improvements, which must be installed prior to the development being completed. Prior to the commercial uses being developed, a right-turn lane at the intersection of Castle Hayne Road and Division Drive will be required.

Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 8 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 9 of 12 ENVIRONMENTAL  The entire subject property is located within a Special Flood Hazard Area, specifically the AE flood zone (100-year floodplain).  The property contains regulated wetlands which will be preserved in conservation space. The vast majority of the subject property contains brackish marsh, which is subject to the standards of the conservation resources.  The property is located within the Northeast Cape Fear River Floodplain, a Natural Heritage Area. This Natural Heritage Area is classified as exceptional, meaning it may contain at minimum 10 rare plant and animal species.  The property is within the Smith Creek (C; Sw) watershed.  Per the Classification of Soils in New Hanover County for Septic Tank Suitability, soils on the property consist of Class IV (unsuitable). However, Preservation Point will be served by public water and sewer. OTHER CONSIDERATIONS CONTEXT AND COMPATABILITY  The property is located along “Old” Castle Hayne Road, a local road that has direct access to Castle Hayne Road, which is identified as Minor Arterial road on the WMPO Functional Classification Map.  The subject property has been placed into a conservation easement to preserve the wetlands and riparian resources and to prohibit development within its boundaries. In addition, the area is required to be maintained in its natural, scenic, and open condition further aligning the site with the Comprehensive Plans goal for the Conservation place type.  Due to the environmental features that exist on the site, additional restrictions apply that place protections for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats and prohibit any development of the site.  This rezoning request is not expected to increase the number of trips generated along the adjacent roadways because no additional lots are proposed to be created.  Approximately 71 acres of I-2, Heavy Industrial zoned land is being removed from New Hanover County’s zoning districts.  This expansion of land area within the Preservation Point Subdivision will have no impact on the school system as no additional lots will be created nor will development take place in the area per the conservation easement restrictions.

These place types are intended to identify general areas for particular development patterns and should not be interpreted as being parcel specific. Future Land Use Map Place Type Conservation Place Type Description Covers areas of natural open space and is intended to protect the natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats that serve the public through environmental education, low-impact recreation, and in their natural beauty. In areas where zoning allows other uses, such as single family residential, increased density would be discouraged, and low impact development methods would be required. Such requirements place limits on development to ensure the protection of resources. Planning Board - December 3, 2020 ITEM: 2 - 2 - 11 Z20-22 Staff Report PB 12.3.2020 Page 12 of 12 Analysis The intent of the Conservation place type is to highlight areas where development and land uses may need to be limited in order to protect natural resources. The majority of the area included in the rezoning request is identified as a Potential Significant Natural Heritage Area in the Comprehensive Plan. These areas are designated by the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) based on features such as the presence of rare species, exemplary natural communities, or important animal assemblages, such as the exceptional coastal wetlands on the subject site. Many of the types of industrial uses allowed in the I-2, Heavy Industrial district are not in line with the Comprehensive Plan’s intent to protect the resources on the subject site. While an R-15 zoning designation could generally allow the type of increased density discouraged by the plan, the conservation easement associated with the site would not allow additional residential units to be built in this area and would protect the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats. Consistency Recommendation The proposed R-15 rezoning, in conjunction with the conservation easement on file for the subject property, is generally CONSISTENT with the goals of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designation than the existing I-2, Heavy Industrial zoning, would not allow additional residential units to be built in this area, and would protect the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats. STAFF RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends approval of this application and suggests the following motion: I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designation than the existing I-2 zoning, and with the conservation easement on record for the property, additional protections are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the request removes an industrial zoning designation from land that is environmentally sensitive and offers increased protection to the adjacent residential property and wetlands. In addition, the boundary of the proposed rezoning was designed to limit additional regulations on the adjacent remaining industrial property. Alternative Motion for Denial I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to an R-15 district. While I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it is a more appropriate designation than the existing I-2 zoning, and with the conservation easement on record for the property, additional protections are provided for the site’s natural environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats which restrict development on the subject site, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the surrounding community and the use will adversely impact the adjacent properties.
