SUBJECT:
Public Hearing
Request by Cindee Wolfe with Design Solu4ons, applicant, on behalf of the property owner, Coastal Carolina Car
Wash, LLC, to rezone approximately 1.15 acres of land located at 6016 & 6100 Castle Hayne Road from B-2,
Regional Business District, & R-15, Residen4al District to (CZD) B-2, Condi4onal Regional Business District.
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 1.15 acres from B-2, Regional Business, and R-15, Residen+al to
(CZD) B-2, Condi+onal Regional Business. There will be two structures, one 4,000 square feet and the other 7,000
square feet intended for commercial flex space.
Current R-15 zoning would allow up to 3 dwelling units on the 1.15-acre site at a density of 2.5 du/ac.
Under the proposed condi+onal B-2 zoning, permissible uses on the site would be limited to the following: indoor
recrea+on establishment (e.g., a video arcade or indoor sports gymnasium), repair shop without outdoor ac+vity (e.g.,
a phone or computer repair shop), contractor office without outdoor storage of materials, business or professional
office (e.g., tax services or realtor office), personal services (e.g., barber shop or nail salon), instruc+onal services &
studios (e.g., dance studio, gym class), retail sales, and RV and boat trailer storage.
As currently zoned, it is es+mated the site would generate about 3 trips during the peak hours if developed at the
permi;ed density. The most intensive use allowed under the proposed rezoning would be es+mated to result in an
increase of up to approximately 32 AM peak trips and 72 PM peak trips. proposed development is es+mated to result
in an increase of up to approximately 80 addi+onal peak hour trips as compared to current zoning.
The site is located on a minor arterial road, abuts the Castle Hayne commercial node on 3 sides, and is adjacent to
single family homes to the east on Blossom Street.
The proposed rezoning for CZD B-2 is generally CONSISTENT with the Comprehensive Plan because it will allow for
the types of commercial uses encouraged in the Community Mixed Use place type and would provide lower-intensity
commercial services in a transi+onal area.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
Intelligent Growth & Economic DevelopmentEncourage development of complete communi+es in the unincorporated
countyCi+zens have daily needs met by NHC businesses and support them
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 1
Staff recommends approval of the proposal and suggests the following mo+on:
I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to a Condi+onal B-2 district. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it will allow for the types of commercial uses that would be
encouraged in the Community Mixed Use place type. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and
in the public interest because the site is located on an arterial street near exis+ng commercial services and the use
would have limited traffic impacts.
Staff Suggested condi+ons:
1. Proposed uses of the flex office space buildings shall be limited to the following:
Indoor Recrea+on Establishment
Repair Shop (no outdoor ac+vity)
Contractor Office (no outdoor storage)
Offices for Private Business and Professional Ac+vi+es
Personal Services (General)
Instruc+onal Services & Studios
Retail Sales (Building and Construc+on Supplies)
General Retail Sales
RV and Boat Trailer Storage
2. An 8’ fence shall be provided along with the required buffer (UDO Table 5.4.3.B.1) where the CZD B-2 abuts
residen+al uses.
Alterna4ve Mo4on for Denial
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a Condi+onal B-2 district. While I find it to be CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it would allow for the types of commercial uses that would be
encouraged in the Community Mixed Use place type, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the
public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the desired character of the surrounding community and the
intensity will adversely impact the adjacent neighborhoods.

APPLICANT’S PROPOSED CONCEPTUAL PLAN
Includes Staff Markups
• The applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 1.15 acres from B-2, Regional Business,
and R-15, Residential to (CZD) B-2, Conditional Regional Business. There will be two
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 1 - 2 - 3
Z21-13 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 4 of 10
structures, one 4,000 square feet and the other 7,000 square feet intended for commercial
flex space.
• Under the proposed conditional B-2 zoning, permissible uses on the site would be limited to
the following:
- indoor recreation establishment (e.g., a video arcade or indoor sports
gymnasium)
- repair shop without outdoor activity (e.g., a phone or computer repair shop)
- contractor office without outdoor storage of materials
- business or professional office (e.g., tax services or realtor office)
- personal services (e.g., barber shop or nail salon)
- instructional services & studios (e.g., dance studio, gym class)
- retail sales
- RV and boat trailer storage
• Access to the site is provided by a 30’ access easement through Coastal Carolina Carwash.
As shown on the site plan, parking is located on the Castle Hayne Road corridor side of the
property, away from existing adjacent residential uses.
• The applicant is proposing a buffer along Blossom Street to reduce impacts on adjacent
residents. No access is provided from Blossom Street.
ZONING CONSIDERATIONS
• The subject site is split-zoned B-2, Regional Business, and R-15, Residential. The intent of the
B-2 district is to provide for the appropriate location and design of auto-oriented uses that
meet the needs of the motoring public or that rely on pass-by traffic. The purpose of the R-
15 Residential District is to serve as a transition between very low-density residential
development patterns and smaller lot, more dense residential areas of the County.
• When zoning was initially applied in this area, a strip of B-2 zoning approximately 190
feet in width was established along the eastern side of Castle Hayne Road with the
remainder of the property zoned R-15. The strip of R-15 served as a buffer between
business and residential use. At the time, the few zoning classifications did not allow for
many options for commercial and residential districts, resulting in high intensity commercial
directly abutting low density residential.
• The subject site was previously used as a mobile home park, however that use has since
been discontinued. The R-15 portion and the parcel at 6016 Castle Hayne Road are
currently undeveloped.
• The property is located within the commercial area of Castle Hayne. This area includes
general office, retail, and restaurant uses. Single-family housing surrounds the commercial
area and is located directly east of the property along Blossom Street, an unimproved
public right-of-way.
• While the site is zoned B-2 and R-15, it directly abuts B-2 zoning within the Castle Hayne
commercial node and R-15 to the east.
• Current R-15 zoning would allow up to 3 dwelling units on the 1.15-acre site at a density
of 2.5 du/ac..
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 1 - 2 - 4
Z21-13 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 5 of 10
• The subject 1.15-acre site is currently part of a parent parcel approximately 2.00 acres in
area. The residual property is not included with this proposal and will remain zoned B-2.
• The proposed site plan would be subject to technical review to ensure compliance with
applicable County and State regulations, including applicable site design and approval
provisions within the UDO.
AREA SUBDIVISIONS UNDER DEVELOPMENT
• The property is not within one mile of any subdivisions under development.
TRANSPORTATION
• Access will be provided to the subject property from Castle Hayne Road, an NCDOT-
maintained minor arterial street, through a 30-foot access easement across the existing
Coastal Carolina Carwash lot.
• The proposed driveway will consist of one egress lane and one ingress lane. A parking lot
cross-access connection will also be provided to the undeveloped portion of the parent
parcel.
• As currently zoned, it is estimated the site would generate about 3 trips during the peak
hours if developed at the permitted density. The most intensive use allowed under the
proposed rezoning would be estimated to result in an increase of up to approximately 32
AM peak trips and 72 PM peak trips.
• The estimated traffic generated from the site is under the 100 peak hour threshold that
triggers the ordinance requirement for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA).
• Because a TIA is not required to analyze transportation impacts at this time, Staff has
provided the volume to capacity ratio for the adjacent roadway 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.

• Before any development can occur on this site, the Technical Review Committee will review
all plans for compliance with applicable land use regulations, including any recommended
roadway improvements that may be required through the NCDOT Driveway permitting
process.
Nearby Planned Transportation Improvements and Traffic Impact Analyses
• The property is not in range of any planned Transportation Improvement Projects nor Traffic
Impact Analyses.
ENVIRONMENTAL
• The property is not within a Natural Heritage Area or Special Flood Hazard Area.
• The property is within the Holly Shelter Creek watershed.
• Per the Classification of Soils in New Hanover County for Septic Tank Suitability, soils on the
property consist of Class I soils (suitable/slight limitation).

Context and Compatibility
• The property is located along Castle Hayne Road, which is identified as a Minor Arterial
on the WMPO Functional Classification Map.
• The site abuts the Castle Hayne commercial node on 3 sides and is adjacent to single family
homes to the east on Blossom Street.
• The site plan positions the two commercial buildings to the back of the property near
Blossom Street. There would be no vehicular access to Blossom Street from the site. An 8’
fence shall be provided along with the required buffer (UDO Table 5.4.3.B.1) where the
CZD B-2 abuts existing residential uses.
• The development would have no impact on the school system.
• The business seeking the rezoning owns the existing car wash at 6100 Castle Hayne Road,
at the front of the property.

2016 COMPREHENSIVE PLAN
The New Hanover County Future Land Use Map provides a general representation of the vision for
New Hanover County’s future land use, as designated by place types describing the character and
function of the different types of development that make up the community. 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 Community Mixed Use
Place Type
Description
Focuses on small-scale, compact, mixed use development patterns that serve
all modes of travel and act as an attractor for county residents and visitors.
Types of appropriate uses include office, retail, mixed use, recreational,
commercial, institutional, and multi-family and single-family residential.
Analysis
The subject property is located in a transitional area near the Castle Hayne
commercial services node and, ideally would provide for the needs of
adjacent residential neighborhoods. The Comprehensive Plan classifies
properties along the Castle Hayne Road corridor as Community Mixed Use.
It is the intent of the plan to allow for the continued growth of this node with
commercial services and moderate density residential development while
also providing a transition between the lower density housing to the east
and the high intensity Castle Hayne Road Corridor.
The subject site’s location on the boundary of the existing commercial node
makes it appropriate for lower intensity commercial uses that will help
provide that transition, such as the limited number of uses proposed for the
flex commercial space. The proposed project can provide lower-intensity
commercial services for nearby residents as well as commuters since Castle
Hayne Road is an important commuter route to and from Pender County.
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 1 - 2 - 9
Z21-13 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 10 of 10
In addition, the proposed development will allow for the types of
commercial uses that would be appropriate in a Community Mixed Use
place type and would provide services to the surrounding community.
Consistency
Recommendation
The proposed rezoning for CZD B-2 is generally CONSISTENT with the
Comprehensive Plan because it will allow for the types of commercial uses
encouraged in the Community Mixed Use place type and would provide
lower-intensity commercial services in a transitional area.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval of the proposal and suggests the following motion:
I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to a Conditional B-2 district. I find it to be
CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it will
allow for the types of commercial uses that would be encouraged in the Community
Mixed Use place type. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable
and in the public interest because the site is located on an arterial street near existing
commercial services and the use would have limited traffic impacts.
Staff Suggested Conditions:
1. Proposed uses of the flex office space buildings shall be limited to the following:
- Indoor Recreation Establishment
- Repair Shop (no Outdoor Activity)
- Contractor Office (no Outdoor Storage)
- Offices for Private Business and Professional Activities
- Personal Services (General)
- Instructional Services & Studios
- Retail Sales (Building and Construction Supplies)
- General Retail Sales
- Outdoor RV and Boat Trailer Storage
2. An 8’ fence shall be provided along with the required buffer (UDO Table 5.4.3.B.1) where
the CZD B-2 abuts residential uses.
Alternative Motion for Denial
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a Conditional B-2 district. While I find it to
be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it
would allow for the types of commercial uses that would be encouraged in the
Community Mixed Use place type, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable
and in the public interest because the proposal is not consistent with the desired
character of the surrounding community and the intensity will adversely impact the
adjacent neighborhoods.

6.Conditional Zoning District Considerations
The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be
consistent with the New Hanover County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the objectives outlined in the Unified
Development Ordinance and where only a specific use or uses is proposed. The procedure is intended primarily for
use with transitions between zoning districts of dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive
conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and
the community at-large.
The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Conditional
Zoning district meets the following criteria.
1.How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development, as
described in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, applicable small area plans, etc.
The policies for growth and development encourage continued efforts to maintain existing
businesses, and attract new ones. Castle Hayne is transitioning into a more active town.
The property is along a commercial corridor where business activities are most convenient.
Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing land use already
accessbile to services.

2.How would the requested Conditional Zoning district be consistent with the property’s classification on the
2016 Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map.
3.What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is
the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning?
The subject property is split-zoned by an existing business district with a car wash. Residential use onthe property to the rear would no longer be appropriate or attractive. Extending the zoning, but withspecific uses and a plan under a Conditional District, protects adjacent properties, and can serveas a transition.
The tract is identified in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as a "Community Mixed-Use" place-type.The plan suggests higher densities or more intensive uses to support the sourrounding residentialneighborhoods. The proposed project is an acceptable transition use along the busy road corridor.

To: Adjacent Property Owners
Re: Coastal Carolina Business Park
The Owners of land at 6100 Castle Hayne Road are interested in developing a commercial center behind the
existing car wash. This property is within the proximity of your property. This proposal would require a
Conditional Zoning District approval from New Hanover County.
A Conditional Zoning District allows particular uses to be established only in accordance with specific
standards & conditions pertaining to each individual development project. Essentially, this means that only
the use, structures & layout of an approved proposal can be developed. An exhibit of the project is enclosed.
The County requires that the developer hold a meeting for all property owners within 500 feet of the tract
boundary, and any other interested parties. This provides neighbors with an opportunity for explanation of
the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning project improvements, benefits and impacts.
A meeting will be held on Wednesday, September 22st, at Shelter #2 of the Northern Regional Park, 4700 Old
Avenue, Castle Hayne, 6:00 p.m. The location is left from Old Avenue, towards the tennis courts.
If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me, Cindee Wolf, at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or
email cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions.
We appreciate your interest in the project, and look forward to being a good neighbor and an asset to the
community.

MEETING DATE: 11/4/2021

DEPARTMENT: Planning PRESENTER(S): Ron Meredith, Current Planner
CONTACT(S): Ron Meredith; Nicole Smith, Senior Planner; and Rebekah Roth, Planning & Land Use Director
SUBJECT:
Public Hearing
Request by Cindee Wolfe with Design Solu4ons, applicant, on behalf of the property owner, Carolyn Faye
Barefoot, to rezone approximately 2.23 acres of land located at 137 Spring Road from AR, Airport Residen4al
District to (CZD) R-15, Condi4onal R-15 district, Residen4al District.
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The applicant is proposing to rezone approximately 2.23 acres from AR to (CZD) R-15. The applicant is seeking to
construct a 5-lot single-family subdivision. As currently designed, the proposal will comply with the County’s standards
for a minor subdivision and will meet the conven2onal R-15 district dimensional standards. No internal subdivision
roads are planned to be constructed. The applicant’s proposal will have direct access to the exis2ng Spring Road, which
is state-maintained. The applicant has agreed to a condi2on which states housing types in the development shall be
limited to single-family detached. While the site is currently zoned AR, the adjacent parcels have similar lot dimensions
as the applicant’s proposal.
Adjacent zoning includes Airport Residen2al (AR), Airport Commerce (AC), and R-15, residen2al district. The AR district
in this area was established in 1974. At the 2me, the purpose of the AR district was to promote low density housing in
the vicinity of the Airport and discourage uses which tend to concentrate large numbers of people like schools,
hospitals, and rest homes.
The es2mated traffic generated from the site is under the 100 peak hour threshold that triggers the ordinance
requirement for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA).
Based on the current general student genera2on rate, the increase in homes would result in approximately 1 addi2onal
student than would be generated under current zoning. The general student genera2on rate provides only an es2mate
of an2cipated student yield as different forms of housing at different price points yield different numbers of students.
Please refer to the schools sec2on included in this report for addi2onal informa2on on school enrollment and
capacity.
The rezoning will result in three addi2onal lots, which are expected to have minimal impact on the surrounding areas.
According to the applicant, the proposed lots sizes will meet the conven2onal R-15 district standards. The proposed lot
sizes and single-family housing type are similar to exis2ng development in the adjacent neighborhood of Sedgefield.
The proposed (CZD) R-15 rezoning is generally CONSISTENT with the Comprehensive Plan because it allows the types
of uses recommended in the General Residen2al place type, is iden2fied as a typical zoning category in this place type,
and is consistent with the exis2ng development pa@ern of the surrounding area.

RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:

I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to a Condi2onal R-15, district. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the proposed density is in line with the residen2al housing
densi2es outlined for General Residen2al areas. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in
the public interest because the proposal is consistent with the exis2ng development pa@ern of the surrounding area.
Staff suggested condi2on: Housing types in the development shall be limited to single-family detached.
Alterna4ve Mo4on for Denial
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a Condi2onal R-15, district. While I find it to be CONSISTENT with the
purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the proposed density is in line with the residen2al housing
densi2es outlined for General Residen2al areas, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public
interest because the proposal will adversely impact the adjacent neighborhoods.

PROPOSED CONCEPTUAL SITE PLAN
• The applicant is proposing to rezone approximate 2.23 acres from AR to (CZD) R-15 to
construct a 5-lot single-family subdivision.
• As currently designed, the proposal will comply with the County’s standards for a minor
subdivision and will meet the conventional R-15 district dimensional standards.
• No internal subdivision roads are planned to be constructed. The applicant’s proposal will
have direct access to Spring Road which is a state-maintained road.
• The applicant has agreed to a condition which states that the housing types in the
development shall be limited to single family detached.

Applicant’s Conceptual Site Plan with Staff Markups
ZONING CONSIDERATIONS
• The subject site is located in close proximity to the downtown and airport economic hubs,
employment opportunities including GE and N. Kerr Industrial Park, and other regional
destinations. In addition, the site is close to three major transportation corridors: MLK Jr.
Parkway, Interstate 40, and Interstate 140.
• The subject site consists of one parcel bordering the Sedgefield subdivision to the east and
north. Adjacent zoning includes Airport Residential (AR), Airport Commerce (AC), and R-15,
residential district.
• The AR district in this area was established in 1974 after Sedgefield was platted. At the
time, the purpose of the AR district was to promote low density housing in the vicinity of the
Airport and discourage uses which tend to concentrate large numbers of people like schools,
hospitals, and rest homes.
• That applicant has stated that the subject tract is not part of the platted Sedgefield
subdivision.
• While the general area is currently zoned AR, the adjacent parcels have similar lot
dimensions as the applicant’s proposal.
• Dimensional differences for the current AR and proposed R-15 districts are outlined in the
following chart.

Access
• Access will be provided to the subject site by Spring Road, a local street located east of
Castle Hayne Road.
• Before any development can occur on this site, the Technical Review Committee will review
all plans for compliance with applicable land use regulations, including any recommended
roadway improvements that may be required through the NCDOT Driveway permitting
process.

• The estimated traffic generated from the site is under the 100 peak hour threshold that
triggers the ordinance requirement for a Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA).
• Because a TIA is not required, staff has provided the volume to capacity ratio for Castle
Hayne Road and Blue Clay 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.

ENVIRONMENTAL
• The property does not contain any Special Flood Hazard Areas or Natural Heritage Areas.
• The subject property is located within the Smith Creek watershed.
• Per the Classification of Soils in New Hanover County for Septic Tank Suitability, soils on
the property consist of, Class II (moderate limitations), and Class III (severe limitations) soils.
• According to the applicant there is no evidence of regulated wetlands within the area of
the property to be developed.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS
SCHOOLS
• Students living in the proposed development would be assigned to Wrightsboro
Elementary, Holly Shelter Middle, and New Hanover High Schools. Students may apply
to attend public magnet, year-round elementary, or specialized high schools.
• Under the current zoning, density would be limited to a maximum of 2 dwelling units. A
maximum of 5 units could be developed under the proposed rezoning.
• Based on the current general student generation rate*, the increase in homes would result
in approximately 1.0 additional students than would be generated under current zoning.
• The general student generation rate provides only an estimate of anticipated student
yield as different forms of housing at different price points yield different numbers of
students. Over the past four years, staff has also seen a decline in the number of students
generated by new development. Student numbers remained relatively stable between
2015 and 2020 (excepting the impacts of COVID-19 pandemic), while 14,500 new
residential units were permitted across the county. In addition, the student population is
anticipated to only grow by approximately 1,300 students over the next 10 years based
on the recent New Hanover County Schools Facility Needs Study.

*The current general student generation rate was calculated by dividing the projected New Hanover County public school student
enrollment for the 2021-2022 school year by the number of dwelling units in the county. Currently, there are an average of
0.22 public school students (0.09 for elementary, 0.05 for middle, and 0.08 for high) generated per dwelling unit across New
Hanover County. These numbers are updated annually and include students attending out-of-district specialty schools, such as
year-round elementary schools, Isaac Bear, and SeaTech.
**Because the student generation rate often results in fractional numbers, all approximate student generation yields with a fraction
of 0.5 or higher are rounded up to a whole number and yields with a fraction of less than 0.5 are rounded down. This may result
in student numbers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels not equaling the approximate total.
• Given the size of the proposed development, it may have a build-out date within 5 years,
so staff has outlined existing school capacity to provide a general impact of the potential
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 2 - 2 - 11
Z21-14 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 12 of 16
impact on public schools. These numbers do not reflect any future capacity upgrades that
may occur over the next five years or trends in student population changes.
School Enrollment* and Capacity** (2021-2022 School Year)
* Enrollment is based on the New Hanover County Schools enrollment that was projected for the 2021-2022 school
year.
**Capacity calculations were determined based on the projected capacities for the 2021-2022 school year, and
funded or planned capacity upgrades were those included in the Facility Needs Study presented by New Hanover
County Schools to the Board of Education in January 2021. This information does not take into account flexible
scheduling that may be available in high school settings, which can reduce the portion of the student body on campus
at any one time.
• The recent facility needs survey that has been prepared by Schools staff indicates that,
based on NC Department of Public Instruction (DPI) student growth projections and school
capacity data, planned facility upgrades, combined with changes to student enrollment
patterns, will result in adequate capacity district wide over the next five years if facility
upgrades are funded.
NEW HANOVER COUNTY STRATEGIC PLAN
• One of the goals of the New Hanover County Strategic Plan for 2018-2023 is to
encourage the development of complete communities in the unincorporated county by
increasing housing diversity and access to basic goods and services.
• The subject property is located in the Wrightsboro community area, where 39% of
residents currently live within one-mile of a convenience need (grocery store, retail
staples, pharmacies, etc.), a support service (urgent care, primary doctor’s office, child
& adult care, etc.), and a community facility (public park, school, museum etc.). The
proposed (CZD) R-15 district, and number of units proposed would increase the number
of residences within one-mile of goods and services.
• The predominant housing type in the area is single family detached at 88%. Under the
proposed (CZD) R-15 district, single family detached housing units would remain the
majority housing type.

CONTEXT AND COMPATIBILITY
• The rezoning will result in three additional lots, which are expected to have minimal impact
on the surrounding areas.
• According to the applicant, the proposed lots sizes will meet the conventional R-15 district
standards.
• The proposed lot sizes and single-family housing type are similar to existing development
in the adjacent neighborhood of Sedgefield.
• The intent of the R-15 district is to serve as a transition between very low-density residential
development patterns and smaller lot, more dense residential areas of the County.
2016 COMPREHENSIVE LAND USE PLAN
The New Hanover County Future Land Use Map provides a general representation of the vision for
New Hanover County’s future land use, as designated by place types describing the character and
function of the different types of development that make up the community. 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 General Residential
Place Type
Descriptions
Focuses on lower density housing ranging up to approximately 8 du/ac,
typically consisting of single-family or duplexes. Types of appropriate uses
include single-family residential, low-density multi-family residential, light
commercial, civic and recreational.
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 2 - 2 - 14
Z21-14 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 15 of 16
Analysis
The area between the Airport and the Castle Hayne Road corridor was
designated as a General Residential place type in order to reflect the
existing development pattern. The proposed (CZD) R-15 zoning is consistent
with the neighborhoods in the area. While the majority of the properties
fronting Spring Road currently contain AR zoning, the lot dimensions are
more reflective of the requested R-15 zoning.
The proposal is in line with the preferred density range of the General
Residential place type. This place type envisions lower density residential
development of up to 8 dwelling units per acre. The applicant is proposing
5 lots, for an overall density of 2.24 units per acre.
In addition, one of the stated goals of the comprehensive plan is to promote
compact development which will minimize trips and vehicle miles traveled.
The proposal locates future residents in close proximity to existing urban
services. The subject parcel is approximately one mile from commercial
services available at both the Airport Commerce employment center, to the
east, and Wrightsboro commercial node, to the north. There is also a Wave
Transit stop to the south at Castle Hayne Road and 23rd Street.
Consistency
Recommendation
The proposed (CZD) R-15 rezoning is generally CONSISTENT with the
Comprehensive Plan because it allows the types of uses recommended in the
General Residential place type, is identified as a typical zoning category
in this place type, and is consistent with the existing development pattern of
the surrounding area.
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 2 - 2 - 15
Z21-14 Staff Report PB 11.4.2021 Page 16 of 16
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
The proposed rezoning is generally in line with the goals and objectives of the Comprehensive Plan
and the types of uses encouraged in the General Residential place type. In Additional the proposed
development would be similar to the surrounding residential development pattern.
Therefore, staff recommends approval of this application and suggests the following motion:
I move to APPROVE the proposed rezoning to a Conditional R-15, district. I find it to
be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the
proposed density is in line with the residential housing densities outlined for General
Residential areas. I also find APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in
the public interest because the proposal is consistent with the existing development
pattern of the surrounding area.
Staff suggested condition:
1. Housing types in the development shall be limited to single-family detached.
Alternative Motion for Denial
I move to DENY the proposed rezoning to a Conditional R-15, district. While I find it
to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because
the proposed density is in line with the residential housing densities outlined for General
Residential areas, I find DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public
interest because the proposal will adversely impact the adjacent neighborhoods.

6.Conditional Zoning District Considerations
The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be
consistent with the New Hanover County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the objectives outlined in the Unified
Development Ordinance and where only a specific use or uses is proposed. The procedure is intended primarily for
use with transitions between zoning districts of dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive
conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and
the community at-large.
The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Conditional
Zoning district meets the following criteria.
1.How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development, as
described in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, applicable small area plans, etc.
ITE 210 - Single-Family Homes
4 5
The policies for growth and development encourage safe and affordable housing to beavailable to every citizen. Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill andmaximizing use of lands already accessible to urban services. The proposed developmentwill provide additional housing units with direct service from public utilities and in the proximity of existing urban services.

2.How would the requested Conditional Zoning district be consistent with the property’s classification on the
2016 Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map.
3.What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is
the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning?
The parcel is identified in the "General Residential" place-type on the Comprehensive Land Use Plan.The proposed lots will be consistent with other properties in the vicinity
The Airport Residential zoning district is established for the purpose of limiting the development of land within the vicinity of the Airport to low-denisty residential devleopment, but the one-acre arearequirement is counter-productive to addressing the housing deficit that has been determined in ourcommunity. The proposed rezoning would not impair the utility of the airport or the public's investmentin it.

To: Adjacent Property Owners
Re: Residential Lots
The Owner of land at 137 Spring Road is interested in developing five (5) homes on that tract. This property is
within the proximity of your property, and the proposal would require a Conditional Zoning District approval
from New Hanover County.
A Conditional Zoning District allows particular uses to be established only in accordance with specific
standards & conditions pertaining to each individual development project. Essentially, this means that only
the use, structures & layout of an approved proposal can be developed. An exhibit of the lot division is
enclosed.
The County requires that the developer hold a meeting for all property owners within 500 feet of the tract
boundary, and any other interested parties. This provides neighbors with an opportunity for explanation of
the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning project improvements, benefits and impacts.
A meeting will be held on Thursday, September 23rd, 6:00 p.m., at 64 Arlene Drive, Castle Hayne.
If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me, Cindee Wolf, at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or
email cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions.
We appreciate your interest in the project, and look forward to being a good neighbor and an asset to the
community.

REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION
MEETING DATE: 11/4/2021
Regular
DEPARTMENT: Planning PRESENTER(S): Nicole Smith, Senior Planner
CONTACT(S): Nicole Smith, Rebekah Roth, Planning & Land Use Director
SUBJECT:
Request by Frank Pasquale with KFJ Development Group, LLC to amend Ar7cles 3 and 4 of the Unified
Development Ordinance to establish a new zoning district, the Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning District.
BRIEF SUMMARY:
The proposed amendment seeks to provide an addi onal tool for redevelopment of Cape Fear and Northeast Cape
Fear riverfront proper es. The proposed district combines concepts from the exis ng Riverfront Mixed Use Planned
Development Zoning (RFMU), Urban Mixed Use Zoning (UMXZ) and Planned Development (PD) districts.
The proposed Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ) district would be a Master Planned development district,
a type of condi onal zoning district that includes a site-specific design (master plan) and allows for mutually agreed
upon condi ons. Master plans for these districts are intended to be in a “bubble” format that illustrate the general
loca on and intensity of the land uses within the development. Mixed use developments must be constructed in
accordance with the standards established in the approved master plan and must comply with all other applicable
development regula ons (stormwater, landscaping, roadways, parking, etc.). Compliance with the master plan and
other applicable regula ons is verified during the technical review of an engineer sealed development proposal.
The applicant’s proposal includes a district size requirement between 5 and 10 acres; allows for a maximum by-right
height of 240 feet; and accommodates a maximum density of 100 units per acre, when ver cally integrated as part of a
mixed-use building. Aside from dimensional standards, the district prescribes architectural and design elements and
promotes mul modal transporta on op ons. Similar to the exis ng mixed use zoning districts, the proposed district
would be established with a master plan of development, approved by the County Commissioners.
The por on of the unincorporated area that would qualify for this district has generally retained the ini al 1970s
industrial zoning to date. However, to the east, across the Northeast Cape Fear River, lies the urban downtown core of
the City of Wilmington, with primarily CBD, Central Business District zoning and generally higher intensity uses.
The proposed district does not provide a unique tool that is not currently offered in the
County’s planning jurisdic on. Instead, the proposed district would provide for an updated version of the RFMU
district, which was not modified during the UDO project. While the proposed height is not currently on the ground, the
poten al exists with the RFMU zoning district and the maximum density is consistent with the east side of the
river. Further, the dimensional standards paired with the purpose statement of the district limit the riverfront proper es
that could apply for this mixed-use master plan district to those across from downtown areas where similar
development intensity is permiCed.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT:
RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS:
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 3
Staff recommends approval, with suggested edits, of the requested amendment and suggests the following mo on:
I move to recommend APPROVAL of the proposed amendment to the New Hanover County Unified
Development Ordinance to establish the Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ). I find it to be
CONSISTENT with the purpose and intent of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan because it promotes a mixture of
uses, where appropriate, in an effort to cluster development and minimize impacts on natural resources. I also
find APPROVAL of the proposed amendment reasonable and in the public interest because it provides an
addi onal tool for redevelopment of the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear riverfront proper es.
I move to recommend DE N I AL of the proposed amendment to the New Hanover County Unified
Development Ordinance to establish the Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ). While I find it to be
CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because it promotes a mixture of uses,
where appropriate, in an effort to cluster development and minimize impacts on natural resources, I find
DENIAL of the proposed amendment is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposal is not
consistent with the desired character of the surrounding community and the density and height will adversely
impact the adjacent proper es.

Request:
The intent of this amendment is to establish a new zoning district, the Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use
Zoning (RUMXZ) district.
Applicant: Subject Ordinance:
Frank Pasquale on behalf of KFJ Development Group Unified Development Ordinance
Subject Article(s) and Section(s):
• Article 3: Zoning Districts
o Section 3.3.2 Established Mixed Use Zoning Districts
o Section 3.3.8 Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ)
• Article 4: Uses and Use Specific Standards
o Table 4.2.1: Principal Use Table
o Table 4.4.3 Accessory Use Table
o Table 4.5.3: Temporary Use Table
BACKGROUND
The proposed amendment seeks to provide an additional tool for redevelopment of the Cape Fear
and Northeast Cape Fear riverfront properties. The proposed district combines concepts from the
existing Riverfront Mixed Use Planned Development Zoning (RFMU), Urban Mixed- Use Zoning
(UMXZ) and Planned Development (PD) districts.
The Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ) district would be a Master Planned Development
district, a type of conditional zoning district that includes a site-specific design (master plan), and
mutually agreed upon conditions can be attached. Master plans for RUMXZ districts are intended
to be in a “bubble” format that illustrate the general location and intensity of the land uses within
the development. Mixed use developments must be constructed in accordance with the standards
established in the approved master plan and must comply with all other applicable development
regulations (stormwater, landscaping, roadways, parking, etc.). Compliance with the master plan
and other applicable regulations is verified during the technical review of an engineer sealed
development proposal.
The applicant’s proposal includes a district size requirement between 5 and 10 acres; allows for a
maximum by-right height of 240 feet; and accommodates a maximum density of 100 units per
acre, when vertically integrated as part of a mixed-use building. Aside from dimensional standards,
the district prescribes architectural and design elements, and promotes multi modal transportation
options. Similar to the existing mixed use zoning districts, the proposed district would be established
with a master plan of development, approved by the County Commissioners.
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 3 - 2 - 1
TA21-04 Staff Summary PB 11.4.2021 Page 2 of 6
The portion of the unincorporated area that would qualify for this district has generally retained
the initial 1970’s industrial zoning to date. However, to the east, across the Northeast Cape Fear
River, lies the urban downtown core of the City of Wilmington, with primarily CBD, Central Business
District zoning and generally higher intensity uses.
In 2007, New Hanover County adopted a new zoning district, the Riverfront Mixed Use (RFMU)
district, specifically to apply to properties along the west bank of the Cape Fear and Northeast
Cape Fear Rivers. This staff-led amendment was a collaborative effort with the City of Wilmington
and numerous stakeholder groups and was initiated in response to increasing interest in
development along the west bank across from downtown Wilmington. Height standards and other
regulations were established in order to reflect the development of downtown, take into account
environmentally sensitive areas, and provide for quality development that would provide a
community benefit. Specific requirements included provisions for a public Riverwalk, similar to the
one on the east bank of the river.
Since that time, this district has only been applied to one piece of property, and an RFMU-zoned
development has never been completed. During the Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) Project
process, staff reviewed the RFMU district and found that some of the regulations included in the
district, such as the requirements regarding mix of uses, lot coverage, architectural features, and
timeline for start of construction, may have reduced the likelihood that the district would be used.
Staff made a decision to focus on the new Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (UMXZ) and Planned
Development (PD) districts as alternatives to achieve similar high-quality developments in this area
of the county.
The proposed RUMXZ district combines several of the features of the RFMU and UMXZ districts. It
is intended to apply for properties too small for PD zoning, which requires a minimum of 10 acres.
The architectural standards would allow for more urban structures than currently allowed in RFMU
and more residential density than allowed in either the RFMU or UMXZ districts. However, building
heights are similar to those provided for in the current RFMU district.
Dimensional differences for the unincorporated jurisdiction’s existing mixed-use districts and the
applicant’s proposed RUMXZ are outlined in the chart below.

The vision for the development pattern provided for in the RFMU district was incorporated into the
Comprehensive Plan, as the areas on the west bank across from downtown Wilmington were
designated as an Urban Mixed Use place type, the land use classification with the most residential
density and urban pattern outlined on the plan's Future Land Use Map.
The proposed district does not provide a unique tool that is not currently offered in the County’s
planning jurisdiction. Instead, the proposed district would provide for an updated version of the
RFMU district, which was not modified during the UDO project. While the proposed height is not
currently on the ground, the potential exists with the RFMU zoning district and the maximum density
is consistent with the east side of the river. Further, the dimensional standards paired with the
purpose statement of the district limit the riverfront properties that could apply for this mixed-use
master plan district to those across from downtown areas where similar development intensity is
permitted.
PROPOSED AMENDMENT
The applicant’s proposed text amendment is attached, with red italics indicative of staff’s suggested
edits and commentary.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approval, with suggested edits, of the requested amendment and suggests the
following motion:
I move to recommend APPROVAL of the proposed amendment to the New Hanover County
Unified Development Ordinance to establish the Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning
(RUMXZ). I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purpose and intent of the 2016
Comprehensive Plan because it promotes a mixture of uses, where appropriate, in an effort
to cluster development and minimize impacts on natural resources. I also find APPROVAL
of the proposed amendment reasonable and in the public interest because it provides an
additional tool for redevelopment of the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear riverfront properties.

Comprehensive Plan because it promotes a mixture of uses, where appropriate, in an effort
to cluster development and minimize impacts on natural resources, I find DENIAL of the
proposed amendment is reasonable and in the public interest because the proposal is not
consistent with the desired character of the surrounding community and the density and

3.3.4 3.3.8 RIVERFRONT URBAN MIXED-USE ZONING (RUMXZ)
A. Purpose
The Riverfront Urban Mixed-Use Zoning (RUMXZ) District is established to meet the following
seven primary objectives in the areas of New Hanover County fronting the Cape Fear River or
Cape Fear River Northeast extension in the proximity of the City of Wilmington and those intended
for where urban or community scale mixed use development is envisioned:
• To encourage the efficient mixed use development pattern envisioned in the
Comprehensive Plan fronting the Cape Fear or Cape Fear Northeast Extension. The zone
shall require that all river frontages be of a “living shoreline” as defined by the USACE,
exception will only be allowed when approved for portage for a “river taxi/ferry” service.
• Enhance and preserve environmentally sensitive areas along the river;
• Protect public access to the river through the creation of quality public spaces.
• Preserve cultural and natural resources.
• Ensure quality design and a variety of built forms that result in a pedestrian scale that
allows vistas to the east, City of Wilmington, and west from developed pedestrian
walkways, bicycle paths, and Riverwalk. The zone must provide as a compelling skyline.
• Promote and enhance transit options, particularly pedestrian and water-oriented
transportation options.
• Provide an opportunity for intensive development consistent with the urban form;
Encourage a mix of uses that fosters a sense of community and create a
destination for residents and visitors alike.
Planning Board - November 4, 2021
ITEM: 3 - 2 - 7
The district regulations include design elements intended to enhance the urban form, increase
neighborhood safety, through the adaptation of ncpc crime prevention through environmental
design (CPTED) recommendations, and add flexibility for small lot development. Integrated mix of
uses on development sites and within individual buildings is encouraged along the riverfront of the
Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear Northeast Extension Rivers. RUMXZ zoning is intended to
promote mixed-use developments on sites large enough to create a mix of uses in the current
Industrial Zoned areas along the Riverfront of the Cape Fear and Northeast Cape Fear Northeast
Rivers in accordance with the NHC Comprehensive Future Use Master Plan. Typically, these
developments will include creative development and redevelopment solutions.
B. Concept
C. Use Standards
Allowed uses and use-specific standards for principal, accessory, and temporary uses are established
in Article 4, Uses and Use Specific Standards. All RUMXZ projects shall include a mix of both
residential and nonresidential uses.
