COUNTY OF NEW HANOVER
STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
ORDER GRANTING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT
For A 7-Slip Community Boating Facility in an R-15 Residential Zoning District
S-571, 12/06
The County Commissioners for New Hanover County having held a public hearing on February 5, 2007
to consider application number S-571 submitted by REIS, LLC for a special use permit to locate a
Community Boating Facility in a R-15 Residential District located at 311 Trail's End Road and having
heard all of the evidence and arguments presented at the hearing, make the following FINDINGS OF
FACT and draw the following CONCLUSIONS:
1. The County Commissioners FIND AS A FACT that all of the specific requirements set forth in
Section 72-37 and 71-1 of the County Zoning Ordinance WILL be satisfied if the property is
developed in accordance with the plans submitted to the County Commissioners.
2. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the first general
requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use will not materially endanger the public health
or safety if located where proposed and developed according to the plan as submitted and approved.
In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. The subject property is located within the Myrtle Grove Fire District.
B. A private well will serve the dock facility.
C. The project will be located in Whiskey Creek, which is subject to extreme tidal fluctuations
D. Access to the site will be pedestrian from within The Bluffs at Trails End Subdivision, off Trail's
End Road.
3. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the second
general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use meets all required conditions and
specifications. In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF
FACT:
A. The site is located in an R-15 Residential Zoning District. A Special Use Permit allows a
community boating facility in an R -15 Residential District.
B. The property has an existing pier and floating dock which applicant proposes to keep.
C. The applicant proposed that no additional off-street parking will be needed, because parking will
be accommodated on the individual lots served by the dock.
D. The proposed community boating facility requests seven (7) boat slips with boat lifts to serve
seven (7) proposed residential lots, which meets the required ratio of 1: 1.
E. A pedestrian easement will be provided and conferred to each owner for access to the community
boating facility.
F. No commercial activities, as required by the ordinance, are proposed for the facility.
4. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the third
general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use will not substantially injure the value
of adjoining or abutting property, or that the use is a public necessity. In support of this conclusion,
the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. Similar type projects exist in other residential districts in New Hanover County.
B. No evidence has been presented that the proposed use will injure the value of adjoining or
abutting property values.
5. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the fourth
general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely 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 plan of development for New Hanover county.
In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT:
A. The New Hanover County Comprehensive Plan classifies the site as Conservation. The
purpose of the class is to provide for effective long-term management and protection of
significant, limited, or irreplaceable natural resources while also protecting the rights of
the property owner. Water-dependent uses are appropriate.
B. The 2006 Joint Land Use Plan encourages recreational access to estuarine and public
trust waters.
C. The entire creek bank is surrounded by brackish marsh and a 75' COD setback has been
identified on the plan. Whiskey Creek has a significant fluctuation in water body width
and a severely limited channel width at low tide, making pier projects on individual
residential lots complicated.
D. Surrounding land uses include single-family housing, some with docks and piers.
6. Therefore, because the County Commissioners conclude that all of the general and specific conditions
precedent to the issuance of a SPECIAL USE PERMIT HAVE been satisfied, IT IS ORDERED that
the application for the issuance of a SPECIAL USE PERMIT BE GRANTED subject to the attached
site plan and the following conditions:
A. That the applicant shall fully comply with all of the specific requirements stated in the
Ordinance for the proposed use, as well as any additional conditions hereinafter stated.
B. If any of the conditions imposed by this special use permit shall be held invalid beyond
the authority of this Board of Commissioners by a court of competent jurisdiction, then
this permit shall become void and of no effect.
C. Other:
1) Deed restrictions should be placed on the 7 proposed lots in the proposed
subdivision stating that no individual docks/piers will be allowed and only property
owners and their guest may use the slips.
2) No overhead lighting should be installed.
3) Maximum number of slips cannot exceed 7.
