Adjoining neighborhood concerns primarily focused on environmental.degradation of the area and a proposed road connection from the site into the Lord's Creek development to facilitate emergency access to Carolina Beach Road. Several individuals also spoke in favor of the project indicating that the site was the "best" use for the area considering the amount of wetlands and conservation areas~on site: The Planning Board recommended in a 4-0 vote to approve. the project with four conditions. First, that ,every effort be made to mitigate potential flood and'. environmental concerns.Seeond, adequate water and sewer service be secured prior to the construction of the facility. Third, the Lighthouse''Development Corporation br required to join the Ocean Forest .Homeowners Association ~in order to utilize acid maintain the private. roads in Ocean Forest development. Fourth, low intensity~lighting and adequate buffering be installed in the parking areas to mitigate concerns from adjoining landowners in Ocean Forest. Site Geography. r~ This 294 acre site is located in the southern portion of New Hanover County and is currently zoned R-15 Residential. Most of the site consists of 404 wetlands and several of the County's conservation resources such as Tidal Marsh and Pocosin. Vegetation in the area includes a mixture of Loblolly Pine, Turkey Oaks, Live Oaks, and Maples. Facility Narrative Due to environmental constraints on the 294 tract, only 20 acres ,(7% total site area) is proposed to_be developed with impervious coverage as a personal care facility and education center. Four (4) main buildings are planned consisting of horse stables, staff housing quarters, main facility, and corporate enclave. The main facility will provide 40 suites for week long guests, a spa,, library, children's center, pool complex time share units, dining, and private retail shops (health careproducts)~~A~museum and auditorium are also proposed. Local New Hanover County residents willbe a`b~le to `ti'lize the facilities by purchasing "day" memberships. i ~Et41'~~sl .. 2; , : ~ ~ _~:~ ~~R,~dik~~l 12 .,, ~ . ~~; , . , ~. ~~ .. y;~;. .~ ,.~A .. ~ ;, - yii r ^ ~, ... ~•'., ~ ., ~. ,. .. 5=467 (cont'd) . , ~~ ~ - ~ - . .:, ~ ~ ~~ . -One goal ofthe facility is to minimize the use of vehicles throughout the site.

The Board must find that the location and character of the use if developed accordin to a 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 of~New Hanover County. A. The 1999 New Hanover Land Classification Plan identifies this area as predominately Conservation. This-land class provides for the effective long-term management and protection of significant, limited or irreplacable natural resources while also protecting the rights of the property owner. In order to promote the highest and best use while preventing a negative impact on water quality, site specific flexibility and creativity is desirable. B. As stated, approximately 20 acres (7%) of the 294 acre tract will be developed- buildings b acres, -roads/trails 10 acres, parking 4 acres. ,„ . C. Other areas displayed on site involve passive recreation: farming area, orchards,. treehouse, and garden area. Staff CommentsJConcerns - Every effort should be made to mitigate. potential flood and environmental concerns. - Adequate water and sewer service must be secured prior to construction. - Alternate access from the site through Lords Creek (Hailsham Dr.)development is recommended.. - Roads in Ocean Forest Lakes are private.

I am grateful for the opportunity to share my thoughts on the matter aild would appreciate having the following comments entered into the public . record: - The~parcel of land in question, 5-467, 0.7/00, located off River Road and adjacent to Lords ' " Creek,~is largely wetland habitat dominated-by bottoinland.hardwood and coniferous ~~ ' "~ forest trees including bald and pond cypress, water oak;'sweetgurri, Atlantic white cedar., Virginia bay and dahoon holly. Understory plants include a variety ofwetland-indicator' - wildflowers including golden club, pickerelweed, cattail,_royal-fern, and iris. - - -- " The natural heritage of this particular area is of special interest because it contains a r wealth of unique plants and animals;includin~ Venus' flytrap, pitcher plants, butterworts- • and other carnivorous plants along with native orchids and other;unusual wildflowers.. • While some of these plants may be locally common in isolated places in southeastern • ~~ • - North Carolina, they;az~e all in 'eo and in New Han - _, J P y over county due to habitat loss as a result of development'and utilities construction. The presence of Atlantic white cedar on .this .site is significant because this is one of the Last remaining natural. stands of th%s'species ' . , . in New Hanover county. Obligate wetland animals in,the site include spotted turtles, • • broken striped newts (a type of aduatic salamander) treefrogs and wading birds. ~ ' Numerous migratory songbirds and various nongame mammals also use this site for . , foraging and.breeding. - - ,: The property lies in the Cape Fear River and Lords Creek floodplain and is often so .wet' - that moving.stormwafer can be seen sheeting through the woods at depths greater than 18 - • ~, - inches. Sfandin~ water covers much of the area for several~months of the year from ' • December through May.... . ~ - ,Following our experiences with "hurricane Floyd and other rain .event flooding, the State ~ ' 'and Federal governments have both endorsed the idea of not building structures in - -. floodplains. This project site is clearly prone-to continued flooding as evidenced by the .very soils that occur there and the plant species supported by the tivet soils and low-lying topography. The idea of building structures in this area runs contrary to the County's -long term goal of improving our surface water quality because impervious surface in the - - ~. floodplain will send greater volumes of untreated and-contaminated stormwater into the ." _- ' - Cape Fear River via stormwater detention ponds that are inundated by floodplain : • -floodwater. ~ - - ~ ~ ~~ - 18 As an aside, I should like to note that had New Flanover citizens passed the Open Space Bond Referendum this past spring, I for one would have liked to see this particular site considered'for purchase as open space. The site already receives, stores and naturally treats stormwater from existing adjacent developments and as already mentioned, it provides safe haven for several species of plants and animals currently imperiled in our area because.of habitat loss. " ~~ I believe-this site has great merit as a natural heritage area in-New Hanover County and .white it may be possible to develop some-ofwhat little high ground exists on-site; I believe it would be worthwhile to recognize the sensitive nature of this particular area and encourage minimal impact development as a best management practice.. For the reasons I have outlined above I would ask this Board to closely review the text of this project's proposal including off--site impacts created by additional stormtivater runoff, traffic flow.and the~costs of public-funded utilities required to support-.the project's . residents. I would also ask that existing-wetlands be shown on preiiminarydevelopment plans to assure maximum protection for these public trust resources. I also encourage the Planning Board to confirm that .the- proposed special use request is for a nursing home only. If, it is the ifztent'of the developer to build such peripheral site constructs as apartments, condominiums;.horse'stables and other structures, they should be clearly delineated before this plan is appr`o,ved. ~, ,~ • FP.OM Haden/S tanz i a 1 e FAY, N0. _ _ Jul . 03 2000 11: 22AM P 1 ~-la c~P. n • Stanza<~a 1 c TO: Sam' Burgess - '..

These areas are already developed at a density approaching 1,500 dwelling units per square mile: Urban services are already in place or scheduled `vithin the immediate future. Most of the land within the City.of Wilmington is designated as developed, except for some Urban Transition and Conservation areas. Density may exceed 2.5 units per acre within the developed class, clepencling upon local zoning regulations. PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION 6/1/00: The applicant's representative presented the rezoning petition and explained that the request had been amended per the recommendations of the~P.lanning Board during theirMay 4, 2000 meeting and per staff comments. The petitioner has provided a 50 foot wide Right-of-way dedication along the northern property line: Several neighbors from the Middle Sound community presented a variety of concerns about the proposed right-of--way dedication and the rezoning. The Planning Board voted 3-] to recommend approval,of the B=2 and the CD(B-2) proposal 'as amended with the following conditions. 1) The right-of-tivay improvements must be made in conjunction with the first development on the property.. 2) The Planning Board also requests that the developers of the property and DOT make their best efforts to save and.protect as~many of the Large Trees as possible. STAFF SUMMARY The petitioner is requesting a B-2 Highway Business Rezoning, The subject property is .currently zoned R-15 Residential and B-2 Highway Business.. The residential portion of the site is occupied by a mobile home park and the commercial portion has several different commercial ' businesses. The surrounding zoning is a variety of residential and commercial. The adjacent parcel to the• south occupied by the Ogden Baptist church is zoned R-15. The adjacent Planters Walk subdivision to the west is zoned R-10 residential and the remainder of the surrounding zoning is B-2 Highway Business. The B-2 parcel directly to. the north is occupied by Jones Seafood and the large B-2 parcel to the west directly adjacent to the Coastal Carolina Subdivision is.currently vacant. The most important factor affecting the rezoning of this site-is traffic. The intersection of .Market Street and Middle Sound Loop Road has one of.the highest traffic counts in the county. It is .critical for a road connection to be made through this property to provide better and safer ' access to Market Street from the residential subdivisions to the northwest. Several thousand ~ homres will eventually be seeking access onto Market Street. A signalized intersection at this ~-~'- loeafionlwould also alleviate some of the congestion in the Ogden area since traffic tivould have an alternate~roi~ e~'to the north central part of the cotuzty. In order to ensure this critical road connec~ion,tSt~aff r commends that the petitioner submit a Conditional Use rezoning petition or the'~petitionlbe~iielayed until aright-of--way dedication can be completed through a °.' . sut~divisioiapplcation. A collector street connection providing interior access should increase 2 6 , the property valiiel~ ,. ~~ Pamela Tobin Kersting 7509 Elkmont Court Wilmington, NC 28411 28 June 7, 2000 Mr. William A. Caster 310 Brookshire Lane Wilmington, NC 28409 .,_ . . Re: Case Z-703, 05/00 t Applicant: Mr. & Mrs. Herman Hall Request: R-15 Residential & B-2 Highway Business to B-2 Highway Business, Location: 7135-7155 Market. Street (across from Middle Sound Loop Road) Dear Mr. Caster, , I am a resident of the Ogden area, a landscape architect, and a mother of two young children. I am writing you to ask yQU to oppose the proposed, rezoning that includes a Conditional Use easement fora 50-foot road right-of-way that would extend Middle Sound -Loop Road west of Market Street. My reasons are numerous, however,'I will try to be concise: _ ~ - 1. First of all, Ogden still has a small village-like sense of place. What gives it its sense of identity are its small structures which are close to the street and its very Large oak trees. If you take these away, Ogden will become like any other part of town (i.e. South College, Oleander, Market Street from Military Cutoff to S. College)... We feel that our sense of place is threatened and we .. _ . .: • wish to preserve -it! . 2. •If a large collec#or road which would extend from Market Street to 11/lurrayville Road were allowed to go in at that intersection and if the adjacent Hall . property were rezoned to B-2 Highway Business, Ogden would completely lose its sense of identity. 3. The planning board made a deal ;with the Halls.- on ,May 4.at their meeting. ~ . they said that if the Hall's would give them a road .easement,. they would give them a blanket B-2 zoning for the property. At that time, the Planning Board asked-the Requester who would buy the property and what it would become., -The Real Estate Agent who attended the meeting on behalf of the Halls did .not mention that he even had a buyer. However, Mr. Hall himself told me they have the property under. contract for $4,000,000 to a developer out of ~.. ~. Atlanta. 1 have spoken with several developers here who. told me that the . only thing that could be successful with that high a price tag would be a very f -high density development such as a shopping center. That means that~the -1. Middle Sound Loop & Market Street intersection would become a very large. ~' intersection with a very large shopping center and a sea. of asphalt on the Hall property. 4. For the Planning Board meeting on~June 2, the Hall request was added to the .- agenda in the eleventh hour.. As of Thursday, May 25,~ it was not on the . . , agenda. Therefore, the planning department did not allow the citizens of ~ ~~ ~~ ' ~ `. Ogden to prepare adequately to fight this rezoning request.- Also, at the June ` ~ ~2 meeting, two members of the Planning Board - Podney Harris and Ken Dull . ~... ~ .abstained from voting on the issue. ~ ~ . ' S. Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, the Hall property consists of nine acres,-most of which is zoned R-15. It also is the site of a very large live oak ' ~ ,grove and a mature urban forest. There are man trees with a 3'+ DBH and :...Mary Ann Metcalf, the New Hanover County Urban Forester, estimates the age of the.~ive oaksat over 200 years. The county and city it seems takes great pains to preserve 200 year old buildings down town, but doesn't give a. _.. second thought to preserving our 200 year live oaks. They are irreplaceable! .. . 6. Finally, if you have ever driven along the south` bound lanes of Market Street in ,Ogden after a rain, you would know that that lane of traffic floods every time. Not only does the street flood, but all of the land to the west of that. traffic lane floods substantially. Also,,the Planters Watk and West .Bay Estates subdivisions, which were built~over wetland soils also flood ' consistently. The drainage ditches do not,vvork because the hand is too flat - and they consistently flood every time it rains. l know this because lunder- stand drainage and ]live in that neighborhood:: Adding a large collector road, n cutting down the mature trees (which help absorb the runoff); and adding a ° . `. nine acre impervious shopping center at this intersection would be - ~ disasterous drainage wise: The people;ofOgden want our sense of place and our large live-oaks to be ~ ~ -, preserved. We deserve to be heard. We don't want our identity threatened by a `super large intersection (look what has become of the Gordon Road/.Market `. ~ ~ '. Street intersection - it looks just like the S. College/Oleander intersection now).- - - . Nor do we want free-for-all strip development! We are not denying the need for .~ a collector road, but not at the expense of Ogden's sense of place.-.Abetter alternative for the collector would be Torchwood Boulevard which is existing two . blocks north of Middle Sound Road. It intersects at an existing traffic light with ' Market Street and Bayshore and there-are no live oaks to remove and no sense of identity will be lost) Also, the nine acre Hall site could be better developed into ~ - a wonderful (O&I CD) village core for Ogden with small scale structures and .. decentralized parking under those live oaks. Thank you so much for your ~ ~' attention to this matter. 1 appreciate if. - `" . ,~ ; :~: Sincerely, ~ . '. 2.9 . . . . ~ ~~ e .~ . ,. ,°~°- , ' .. NE'w I~CAN~VER COUNTY: .

The Planning Board voted Unanimously to recommend approval of the request. Preliminary Staff Findings 1. The board must find 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. A. The site is served by the Wrightsboro VFD . . B. Individual Well and Septic are in place C. The residence:has direct access to Oakley Road '- ~ . 2. . , The Board must find that the.use meets all required conditions and specifications of'the zoning ' ordinance. A. Home Daycare operations are permitted by special use'permit in residential zoning districts;.. B. Adequate open space along with a fenced back yard and play equipment already exist on, site. C. Adequate parking can be accomodated without making any site modifications.: D. Li'1 Angels Daycare is a 24 hour daycare facility operating on two different shifts. E. At the, request of New Hanover County Zoning Enforcement there are currently 5 children enrolled i in Li'1 Angels Daycare. The petitioner is requesting a special use permit to enroll 6 additional . children. (The petitioner will have to meet the State requirements regarding the number of children permitted in the facility at once.) 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. Similar daycare operations exist in residential districts throughout New Hanover County. B. No evidence has been presented that residential daycare operations decrease the value of adjoining property. 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 plan of development for New Hanover County." A.~ The~l¢999 La~n~d *Cla~#fi~cation Plan identifies this area as Resource Protection. Residential densities ~-~fot~-these"areas shou'ld~6e limited.to less than 2.5 units per acre.. B. The exis g Dayc~a}r~ operation will -not increase in size. S ~~~~ ~a~~nn~s~t .Planning Staff Concerns: 1.. Given limitedifloo'r'~ar a, the primary concern for this request is the overlap between shifts and the number of childreri~insde the daycare facility at one time. 2.=:~Granting`rtlis'exparision;would allow Li'1 Angels Daycare to operate two shifts with an enrollment 6 greater than 5 children.

The.planning board also amended the permitted use table for Out-parcels 1 & 2 on College Road to be more restrictive. STAFF .SUMMARY: .The subject properties are located adjacent and behind the existing commercial`center at .Monkey Junction, and have frontage along both South College Road and Carolina Beach Road. The petitioner is requesting a rezoning for this property in order to develop amulti-use development with approximately 444;000 square feet o"f retail, restaurant and. office space. Although this is a very large sight to rezone for highway business, it is a logical location for a- regional commercial node. As this intersection continues to grow to an ever.larger center, consideration must be given to the potential traffic impacts of this property and other commercial expansions nearby. It is also important to consider the relationship of this commercial expansion to the surrounding neighborhoods and to the Motts Creek watershed. The proposed development plan will have significant impacts on traffic along both College Road and Carolina Beach Road. -The proposed plan indicates three entrances on~Caroliria Beach Road. and two on South College Road. The primary entrance from South College Road is proposed with a traffic signal-across from the library. The primary entrance from Carolina Beach road is proposed at the existing signalized entrance at Antoinette Drive. The applicant's traffic analysis report also indicates the addition of several right and left turn ,lanes on both College Road and Carolina Beach Road. .The proposed development will intercept some. traffic,from the south going to other retail centers fiirther north., Even with the road improvements being ro osed to improve access to the site, it_ is expected that the retail center will generate additionatraffic..The applicants traffic analysis indicates that the center will generate approximately_7,400 (14,800 enter/exit) additional primary trips to-the site in a 24-hour period. The County MPO thoroughfare plan proposes a firture grade separated improvement to the intersection at Monkey Junction. The additional trips generated by this development and possible future commercial development to;the<south and west may•liasten the improvement of that intersection. Funds and participation by the major traffic generators would help offset the public cost. Since the property is located'in the upper reaches of the Motts Creek watershed, stormwater management is another critical issue. Both water quantity and quality measures above the current required standards should be incorporated into the drainage design..•A regionah stormwater system would be abetter solution. Historically, the county has discouraged continued commercial expansion north along College Road. Several recent exceptions were made for the O&I districts south of Greenbrier . .Subdivision. However, this heavy commercial designation for,800 feet of frontage on South ogle ge Road, tivould be a departure from past efforts to protect those. residential developments. The County's comprehensive plan does; recommend locating "regional commercial nodes at ..major intersections to accommodate uses "that serve'a regional market." Given.the acreage of this property combined with the existing commercial uses already located at Monkey~Junction this .area will ultimately become the' largest commercial center in the southern ,part of the county. The ~ attached list of uses for the four proposed out-parcels along College Road should help transition . 56 ~j the`developmentlnto the adjacent institutional uses and nearby residential neighborhoods~to the .. , ,..north and east. A better solution to accomplish this transition is to changeahe orientation of the center to provide equal exposure on College and on Carolina Beach road. . I id i ' n cons er ng the Conditional Use portion of this application, the internal workings of the site plan are critical to the success f th ' o e ro ect. Staff has review P J ed the site plan and all setbacks and buffers required in the ordinance can be met. In addition to the requirements of the . zoning ordinance staff has several conditions to improve the proposed development; 1) , No additional curb cuts on College road should be permitted for the. out-parcels . 2) Improve existing service road running beriveen College and Carolina Beach road to .. collector road status (36' minimum) with added sidewalk.. . 3) Provide sidewalk along main entrance. drive to allow for pedestrian circulation ~ ' throughout the development. - ' 4) Internal drive aisles should be aligned to decrease taff c conflicts . 5) Lighting should be directed internallyto the project to protect adjacent residential ` . - areas. 6) Landscaping should be provided between the buildings and the drive aisles is accordance with the City standards for large scale Yetail developments. 7) Add landscape islands at ends of parking rows including those with handicap spaces. ' 8) Incorporate the existing Sneeden c nt i t h d , e er n o t e esign as much as possible through . orientation and aligning drive aisles and entrances to existing uses: ` 9) Several clusters of trees should be preserved in the northeast corner of the site . _ 10) Provide road stubs to all parcels included in this rezoning request and to the. Weaver property to the west. l I) The two-out= parcels in the. northeast corner should be limited to O&I uses to provide - better transition to the neighborhood. 12) Large interior parking bays need to provide some drive aisle connections. Although the applicant has attempted~to address all of the concerns raised by staff in the ;previous staff summary, the site plan submitted for the conditio l na use permit only represents half of the overall square footage ultimately proposed for the site. Staff recommends that the petition :Should be approved in phases. The first phase only to include those portions of the site .submitted under the conditional use permit The iti d . pet oner shoul return with a conditional use site plan. for the remainder of the property at a later date. ~- :. 57 ~ , . > ~ , I ..

LOCATION: West side of Blue Clay Road South of Holly Shelter and across from LAND CLASS: Resource Protection -The purpose of the Resource Protection class is to provide for the preservation and .protection of important natural, historic, scenic, wildlife and recreational resources. The Resource Protection class has been developed in recognition of the fact that. New Hanover County, one of the urbanized counties in the State, still contains numerous areas of environmental or cultural sensitivity which merit • protection from urban land uses... . PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION 7/6/00: The petitioner presented the request. No one spoke in opposition. The Planning Board voted unanimously to recommend rezoning the interior portion of the property I-1 leaving a 75 • foot residential strip-along Blue Clay Road similar to the residential strip.omthe East side of Blue Clay Road. In an effort to square off the zoning lines, the Planning Board also recommends rezoning the remainder of the parcel to the north also owned by Roseman Profit Sharing and the remainder of the adjoining parcel to the west owned by the Federal Government to I-1 Industrial. STAFF SUMMARY: The petitioner is requesting an I-1 Light Industrial Rezoning. T-he subject site has approximately 11001inear feet of road frontage on Blue Clay Road. The entire frontage is across from an existing R-15 Residential subdivision. All of the property to'the south of the subject • property on Blue Clay Road is R-15 Residential. Although there is one subdivision to the south, most ofthe parcels continue to be large undivided properties. Much ofthis property remains• undivided because there is no water or sewer service in the area and the soils have limited septic tank suitability. The proper zoning for.this entire area has been discussed and debated several times. The primary reason.for the debate about the zoning in this area is because of the high water table and the fact that this is the secondary recharge. area for the Castle Hayne Aquifer. The aquifer recharge issue is the primary reason for the Resource Protection land classification. In 1988 the - commissioners denied an I-2 rezoning request adjacent andsouth of the subject property. In T992 • . the Commissioners denied an I-2 request just south and adjacent to the Federal property which is adjacent to this request. Ultimately in 1996 the Commissioners modified a request for I-2 and rezoned the property to the north and to the west of the subject property to I-1 light industrial. Issues raised in all of these cases were the heavy industrial uses; the potential impacts on the aquifer, and the impacts on the.surrounding residential property. ```~v,,. 'li~+Becausexof"concerns about the potential threats to the Castle Hayne Aquifer posed by open~ended,~heauy_iridustrial zoning, the staff in October 1990 recommended that much of the industrial zonedprgperty south of Holy Shelter should be rezoned R-15 residential,. This. recommendation. was noted in the rezoning request in 1996 thaf resulted in the surrounding parcels being zoned to I-1 light industrial. At the time the Board felt that I-1 Zoning would be Less intrusive to~the adjacent residential uses along Blue Clay.and would be less of a threat to . 6 2 . , ~' ~ groundwater resources: Given this previous decision-and given the current zoning and land uses ... • ., 1 f RJ-7aV~ 0 / /OO • • Petition Summary Data O~vner/Petitioner: 1st Atlantic Properties JEsisting Land Use: vacant Zoning History: Originally zoned in 3uly, 1972 Water Type: Individual wells Sewer Type; Individual septic tank Recreation Area: Castle Hayne Park Access and Traffic Volume: 980 ATD ('97) Data, Blue Clay & IIolly Shelter .Fire District: Castle Hayne VFD Watershed and Water Quality Classification :Prince George Creek C(SW) Aquifer Recharge Area: Secondary Recharge Conservation /Historic/ Archaeologic Resources: None Soils: Leon (classlII) Building Suitability: limited Schools: Johnson Elementary.. . e . _J 64 r .. ~ . i .. .

APPLICANT: Thomas Newber REQUEST: R-15 Residential to B-2 Highway Business ACREAGE: 4.50 Acres ' ' LOCATION: Between Oleander Drive and Park Avenue along unimproved 58~h Street Right-of--way, behind Newber's Refrigeration. LAND CLASS: Developed -The purpose of the Developed class is to provide for continued intensive development and redevelopment of existing urban areas. These areas are already developed at a density approaching 1,500 dwelling units per square mile. Urban services are already in place or scheduled within the immediate future. Most of the land within the City of Wilmington is designated as developed, except for some Urban Transition and Conservation areas. Density may exceed 2.5 units per acre within the developed class, depending upon local coning regulations. PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION 7/6/00: The petitioner presented the request. No one spoke in opposition. The Planning Board voted unanimously to recommend approval ofthe-'staff recommendation. Staff recommends approval of the request with the exception of the parcel fronting on Park Avenue which should remain R-15 Residential. STAFF SUMMARY: The petitioner. is requesting a B-2 Highway business rezoning for 7 different parcels that are currently zoned R-15 Residential. Although the current zoning is residential several of these properties are being used.for commercial purposes. The, area was originally zoned in 1971. Over the years the commercial district along Oleander drive has expanded to the north and in many cases, has expanded all of the way to Park Avenue. Historically, efforts have been made to maintain the residential character along Park Avenue. Maintaining a buffer between the . commercial activities along Oleander Drive and the residential. uses still present along Park Avenue is important. Recent visits to the property indicate that there has been a commercial business operating out of this location for several years withou't~complaints from neighbors. This increased depth of B-2 along the Oleander Drive frontage is consistent with recent zoning changes nearby. Staff recommends approval of the request for B-2 zoning on 6 of the 7 parcels. Staff recommends that the parcel fronting on Park Avenue should remain R-15 Residential.

Introduction .:Since 1993, New Hanover County,. the Northeast. New Hanover Conservancy ~ . and the UNCW Center for Marine Science Research have worked together to investigate pollution ~problerns, sources, and potential solutions for several tidal creeks ~' '~~;in New Hanover and Pender Counties, including Futch, Pages, Howe, Hewletts and -. Bradley Creeks: The results of this research collaboration have been published in a '='series of.annual reports describing the results, as well as peer-reviewed publications in.. _ _ scientific jourrals. We have also presented our results at numerous public forums and scientific meetings. ,.Some of our results have .proven to be critical findirgs, regarding ` `land development and aquatic impacts, and have been used by the Coastal Resources ` Commission to help develop rules for wise coastal development. Some of the other `:- findings-from our program have included determination of pollution "hot spots" in the .. tidal creeks, an analysis of the sources of nutrients and fecal coliforms into upper Futch Creek;,a complete before. and after analysis of the effect of channel dredging on the water quality of 'Futch Creek;. an analysis of environmental factors supporting Pfiesteria growth in tidal creeks, distribution of.heavy metals pollution in local sediments, analyses of the bivalve community in the~tidal'creeks; investigations `of golf course pollution and ~- - studies concerning the~function of wet detention ponds.as pollutant filters in~New .. ~ Hanover.:County: , . ` ,~. .,. . ` A major byproduct of this program has. been the attraction of outside funding to :conduct additional research and management activities. One of the management efforts has been a manipulation of the upper areas of Graham Pond to attempt to . encou-rage more loss of nitrogen to the atmosphere through denitrification (cooperative - project including the North Carolina Extension Service and Natural Resources - ~ Conservation Service). We will maintain .selected sampling stations and parameters to analyze the effectiveness. of this mitigation effort, and encourage modification'of it if `. .. ~ .,necessary. 1Ne.have also collaborated with North Carolina State University on an EPA funded study to assess the pollutant runoff from area golf courses and determine what - management .practices alleviate runoff problems. Our 'Program has also been instrumental in helping the County secure a large Clean Water Trust Fund grant to help ~` - - purchase Airlie Gardens and set up a comprehensive effort to improve. water. quality of the entire tidal creek system.. Most.. recently, the North Carolina Wetlands restoration ~. -.. . Program has indicated. a desire to contribute to mitigation work on Pine Valley Country . Club.." .: a. , _ •. '~ ~ Environmental-Monitoring Efforts for 1`999-2000- ~ `' ''~"` M `~ Wespropose to.continue our water quality sampling effort at six stations in. Futch `Creek (FC-4, FC-6, FC-8, FC-13, FC-17 and FOY). Sampling at Pages Creek will include. Stations PC-M, PC-OL; PC-CON, PC-OP,~ PGLD; PC-BDUS, PC-WB, PC- - - . ~~ BDDS and PC-H. Sampling at Howe Creek will include HW-FP; H1N-GC, and HW-GP. Bradley Creek stations will include BC-76 BC-SB, BC-SBU, BC-NB, BC-NBU, BC-CR ~-- R and BC-CA.,~.Hewletts Creek stations will :include, HC-1, HC-2, HC=3, HG-NWB; NB- -~ . - ~, ., - :~ 9.33 3 GLR, MB-PGR, SB-PGR, and PV-9. Whiskey Creek stations include WC-MB, WC-AB, WC-MCR, WC-SB and WC-NB. Dr. Mallin oversees the monitoring effort. The normal parameters to be sampled are as follows: Water temperature Salinity ~ ~ Chlorophyll a Dissolved oxygen Nitrate ' pH _ ~ Ammonium Turbidity Orthophosphate . ~ ' Additionally, we -will conduct fecal coliform bacterial analysis at Futch, Pages and Hewletts Creeks. , ~ . Finally, in response to a request by the Porter's Neck Quality of Life Association, we will conduct several exploratory. water quality surveys of Little, Creek, to irivestigate possible pollution of the creek. .Additional Research Efforts Dr. Ron Sizemore is using FISH assays (fluorescent in situ hybridization) to identify water borne bacteria at a genetic level: This assay conclusively identifies bacteria and potentially doesn't require the culturing of the bacteria. We have used this assay to verify and calculate the accuracy of fecal coliform counts made on local water samples. Currently we are using fluorescent~molecular probes to identify specific pathogens in water suspected of being polluted. We plan to continue this work next year. Traditional fecal coliform counts suggest but do not prove waters maybe be dangerous to human health. Identifying actual pathogens in water samples will simplify decisions about water usage and management. Conventional identification of water borne pathogens has been difficult because the bacteria in natural water~samples may not be culturable on media, and even if culturable may require .lengthy testing procedures. The FISH assayuses DNA probes•that attach. to-specific regions unique to the species of bacteria targeted.. With ..the rapid increase in DNA sequence data ~ . available on the Internet, it is now possible to search these data banks and find unique DNA regions and design targeted probes to detect many pathogens. These probes can then be purchased from commercial sources that will quickly and cheaply synthesize them. To date we are testing several DNA probes including a nonspecific bacterial probe (to give us total bacteria counts) as well 'as probes' specific for E. coll. We have also developed probes against Salmonella typhimurium, Shigella and toxigenic E coli which are common fiuman pathogens foun"d associated with sewage. This year`we have been- involved in procuring appropriate probes and testing their efficiency. Unfortunately the signal we have received with these probes is weak and. we have been required•to culture the test bacteria before probing. Next year we plan to continue to. 94 test water samples but to optimize our protocol so hopefully we can use these probes ~;, J 4 " directly on water samples. We: hope in the.near future to be able to collect water - ~ ' -~ ~" ., samples and conclusively ideritify specific pathogenic bacteria (if present) within as.little " as 24 hours, without any need for culturing the bacteria. r °° As a`continuation of our efforts to understand the potential for oysters to " ' . affect/mitigate.waterquality in New Hanover Tidal Creeks, Dr. Martin Posey's ' - , :laboratory will-conduct surveys of areal coverage and density of oysters in Hewletts, Bradley, Howe, Pages and Whiskey. Creeks. During the past'year we ..began preliminary studies on the potential for oysters to-.affect water quality = an issue that has,.° ~_ : 9 e received. increased attention over the past few years. We hope to pursue other fundin sources to expand this area of research. A next step in understanding the role of - ';.; oysters in .New Hanover County tidal creeks is,to survey their extent, and density. This -. .r has two~components. First, we plan to use photography from plane flyovers. to estimate -. ~ the general area covered by oysters in each creek, concentrating on~ intertidal beds ~ - - -. , . distinct from vegetated marsh surface. These photographic surveys will be ground- ~~ '~ truthed by site visits. However, our work- in several of the. creeks indicates that many `.:oyster reefs contain °a high proportion. of dead material. Therefore, a second step .will • ~ . ~ be to conduct estimates of actual oyster density and size distributions. in each of the ~. creek;systems. Sites will be chosen based on photographic surveys and will include F, .. ~ .areas in the upper, mid and, lower regions of each-creek system. These-will-then be ~' ° " visited and .the percent of live oysters (relative to total shells) and actual density of -dive individuals will be determined from quadrat. sampling. These data can be compared to ~'~ previous surveys conducted by both UNCW and NC°DMF researchers. Size distributions.of`oysters at each iocation-will also be estimated from the quadrat ~- ~. sampling. ,. _. .~ Dr: Lynn Leonard of the l)NCW Earth Science department will continue efforts to- P assess the efficacy of using oyster beds to reduce the quantity of suspended sediments - LL .. ~' ~in small creek channels. In cooperation with Dr. Mallin and Dr. Posey her lab will '; sample upstream and downstream of sites planted this year in ,Hewlett's Creek. ~~ ' ~ Dr. Larry Cahoon will head up an investigation of levels of the. "rima p ry plant s nutrient, phosphorus, in soils and sub-aqueous sediments in one tidal creek.drainage ' '..basin, focusing on two related issues: Do,fertilized soils (lawns and golf courses) have higher sedirrierit phosphorus levels than undeveloped. soils? Have sub~aqueous~.; ~. ' sediments, in. storm water detention ponds become phosphorus-saturated over time? . ~.. Do storm water detention ponds. draining areas with high soil phosphorus levels have :higher sediment phosphorus levels than those in basins with lower soil phosphorus ~ " .:.levels? Aims include identifying risk factors and hotspots for excess phosphorus loading- " ~ , to downstream waters: ~ ~ , ., ; . . , :. . ° Dr.. Cahoon will use a combination of standard soil tests by NC Dept. of - Agriculture and sediment phosphorus analyses using the same method (Mehlich III), in T ~~ my lab. Samples will be collected from a large number of ponds (>20) of varying ages ~_ ~~ .. and different type drainage basins.. . - ~ .. . . . - .~ ,., ., . ,, , " :. ,~. . 5 Products of County -Conservancy -UNCW Collaboration County and Conservancy funding has led to a number of sound science and management products. We are pleased to say that our Four-Year Tidal Creeks Report has made a considerable impact among regulators, researchers, and concerned citizens. A strong set of management-oriented recommendations have arisen from the program, which we hope elected officials will utilize. Another product has been the 3rd Golf and the Environment Symposium, held at UNCW last spring. We also have had four technical manuscripts. published in scientific journals. One is an analysis of the effects of tide on water quality parameters, another details the results of the Futch Creek dredging project, a third presents the results of our golf course runoff investigations, and .a fourth presents an analysis of how coastal land development determines bacterial pollution in area tidal creeks.. Two more manuscripts currently being considered for publication by journal.editors concern our findings regarding what factors lead. to microbial pollution of coastal waters, and the efficacy of wet detention ponds. Finally, we are pleased that the Tidal Creeks Program has received the Large Community Comprehensive Planning Award 2000 from the M.C. Chapter of the American Planning Association.

Decades of development have degraded .streams.:: throughout the North Carolina-~ `=~ - ~ Coastal Plain. Ghannelization, loss of riparian vegetation; floodplain. "restrictions; ; - ~ ~ -draining .of wetlands and other changes in hydrology have altered the dimension:,` patfern, and profile, and thereby the function and habitat of coastal streams. . Restoration and stabilization of degraded streams is a priority focus ,for many federal.; ' _ =state and Local government agencies and nonprofit groups. Natural channel design techniques can offer long term -stability for degraded .streams- through the incorporation of natural stream .features. While there are 'several°successful ' demonstrations of natural channel design throughout the North. Carolina Piedmont ~ . and Mountains, few'stream restoration projects have-been conducted in the North - . ~ Carolina Coastal Plains. - ~- , New .Hanover ...,County, the' City ,ofWilmington, the Cape Fear ~ Resource and __ .Conservation District, the North. Carolina Cooperative Extension Service,. North Carolina State University and Pine Valley Country Club are working together to~ plan . -and implement the demonstration of natural channel design based restoration along ,; . 800 ..Linear feet of degraded stream running through the Pine Valley -Golf Course... . ~~~ This .coastal stream,, a tributary to the main .stem of Hewletts Creek, drains a 0.5 , - .. square mile. watershed comprised .of the golf course, single family residential and - commercial land uses. The stream has eroded down to the elevation of the invert of~ - a storm drain system installed. in the residential area of the watershed:: As a result; - ` the stream is entrenched, meaning it can no longer rise out of its banks and spread - : '~ ... . - e out on a flood plain during high flows. The resulting narrow, deep trench of water ~ - - flows significantly faster-than a stream spread out across a wide flood plain, causing -even more erosion. The stream is in the :process of eroding outward to restore an . ~ . °. ~ adequate~floodplain aril reach a balance ,between the amount of water flowing in-the ~cfannel, -the amount of sediment it is transporting through -the channel, and the - changing slope and size of the channel. ~ - - . , . ,. - ~ The removal of woody vegetation from the streamside has accelerated .erosion on this-stream. The resistance to erosion provided by soil depends on its cohesiveness :and .texture. The sandy soils found at Pine Valley have-low cohesion ,and are _ . `comprised of particles small enough to be moved by relatively :low flows and ~- ~. . 'velocities. `Deeply rooted bank vegetation, especially. woody vegetation, both - ~- lessens the impact of rain directly on the soil and holds. the soil in place through the :. ..3 ~. ~ development of a~ root network or root mat that stabilizes and reinforces the soil on ~ „~ .~ - the streambank. The loss of this vegetation at Pine Valley has reduced., the; resisting. .-.. ~ - , ._forces and helped accelerate erosion. _ ~ ~ ~ , - 103 . The goal of this project is to demonstrate the successful use of natural channel - design techniques to restore a degraded coastal stream. The objectives are to reduce the, rate of erosion by restoring the stream to a natural balance or dynamic equilibrium between the amount of water flowing in the channel and the amount of sediment it'is transporting, and to improve the aquatic and streamside habitats.. The success of natural channel design relies on the accurate identification of bankfull channel dimension. and discharge and the identification and analyses of a stable- . refe~ehce reach to be used as a "blueprint" in .the restoration design. The project team has conducted an existing condition survey, identified existing bankfull channel dimensions, calculated existing bankfull discharge, identified and surveyed a stable, reference reach, and developed a~ stream restoration design to be presented to the New Hanover County Tidal Creek Advisory Board at their June 2000 Meeting. The proposed stream restoration design calls for the construction of a nested channel, consisting of a harrow low flow'channel within a larger bankfull channel to improve stream efficiency and aquatic habitat. The area of the bankfull channel is based on the ex'isti°ng condition survey while the width and depth are based on .dimensionless 'ratios taken from the stable reference reach. The floodplain will be widened to slow the water and reduce erosive forces at high flow. ,Meanders will be constructed based on dimensionless ratios taken from pattern measurements of the stable reference reach fo dissipate energy,. restore natural bed features, and improve the aesthetics of the stream. ,To prevent'future erosion; improve streamside habitat, and provide shade, the floodplain and--banks will be planted with a, mix of native wetland plants, grasses, low growing shrubs, and trees that can survive ..periodic topping.. Two in stream structures, root wads and log cross vanes,. will be installed to help prevent future~erosion in meander bends, improve .aquatic habitat, and protect two. concrete carf bridges. In addition; two small bio-retention areas will be constructed to intercept existing drainage depressions and provide some stormwater retention. When completed, this project will provide a number of benefits. It will reduce . . sediment and associated nutrient inputs from. erosion, it will improve the .:habitat and aesthetics o_ f~the stream, and it will serve as a model for possible restoration of other streams in the North Carolina Coastal Plain. In addition it will demonstrate the commitment of ~ New Hanover County, the City of .Wilmington, the Cape Fear Resource and Conservation District, the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service., North Carolina State University, the Pine Valley CountryClub, the NC Clean Vl/ater' Management Trust Fund; and the New , Hanover County Tidal ,,Creek ~ ;; Watershed Maiagem~ent Advisory Board to ..protecting coastal water resources. 104 . u i Pin . e Valley Stream Restoration Project Cost Estimate ~ - Design and Construction Supervision _ ~ ~ ~ ~~ $_ 5,000:00 ~ ~ - . ~. 441 Permit f ee~ ". ~ - $ 475.0,0 ~ . . ~ _ ~ .. =~F Earth Work ~ ~, ~ ~ . ~ ~ - , $4g,0 - 00.00 ~~ . a . { : tAssumes No Off-Site Hauling} t ~ - _ . = Vegetative- Plantings ~ ~ : $.8,000.04 - _~ .... .. _ ~- ; (Includes Materials and )nstaliation) - . ~ ~. ... - ,. ..: , In=Stream Structures: ~ -. .. . ~_ $:8,000.00 ~~ -' ., ~l.ncludes Materials and Installation) - . . r . . . ~ ~ .

Dear Mr. G~ i-~= ~ , , Thank-you for meeting with Juvenile Crime Prevention Council (JCPC) members Carol ;Trambukis and Andy Atkinson on June 22nd about their vision for .addressing the needs of our community's youth. They are hopeful that the Foundation will. share .this. vision by considering New Hanover County as an applicant for funding for the July 15`'' cycle:' We are seeking $50,000 for each of two years to fund the salary of a JCPC Coordinator for a continuing process begun two years ago, entitled: "Communities That .Care" (CTC). This 100+ member group is a voluntary cross-section of the community that formed two years ago, as a result of a needs assessment conducted and funded under a grant provided by the NC Governor's Crime Commission (GCC). New Hanover ' County (NHC) was one of 10 counties selected to be a "pilot project site". At that time, NC government intended to eventually implement the project statewide. The JCPC is a local body of individuals representative of numerous public and private sectors of the community. It was established by the NC,.Legislature in January 1999 to consist of no more than 25 members who must reflect the racial and socioeconomic diversity of the community. The JCPC members are appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. If possible, the Council should include: ' ~ ~ ~ ' School superintendent County Commissioner Dir. of Area Mental Health District Court Judge Chief Court Counselor Director of DSS rCh>.ef of Police;,~5,t,~,~ Health Director 1 Sheriff . ; r..t€~ ~9~~~a County Manager ~ ~: ~ District Attorne Substance Abuse Professional ~~a ..~Y f ~ Member of~Faith~,C,ommunity Juvenile Defense Attorney 128 .~.;. ..~ .., . . ,') ~. .. ,. .

The legislation, however.,. provides no funds for _ . .:. ,. :. , . . '- ~ : ,- implementation. .. NHC and,~CTC, as a collaborative body of public and private partners, -have invested an ` " enormous amount` of cash andin-kind resources into this effort over the past two years. ` The NHC JCPC recognizes the need to continue this process..It has enlisted the' 'volunfi~ry assistance of our community's local. grant writers',. some of whom are-JCPC• - . `.members;` all of whom are CTC members, to work togetfier on federal grant. - ~ - _ applications.

Summarize your organization's background,.goals and current programs. Discuss your ' assets in personnel services and programs which could be built upon by the Foundation's help. Background: The passage of the Juvenile Justice Reform Act in July, 1999 called for the implementation of Juvenile Crime. Prevention Councils (JCPCs) in each county under the auspices of the Office of Juvenile Justice. JCPCs are to review the needs of juveniles in the county who are at risk of delinquency or who have been adjudicated undisciplined or delinquent. By establishing a shared vision, a common laziguage and a collaborative planning structure, the JCPC should review all of the resources available in the community to address those needs. By statute, the JCPC is to develop a plan of action for the expenditure of juvenile ~' sanction and prevention funds while ensuring that appropriate intermediate disposition `J options are available in the community. Communities That Care (CTC), a model framework for promoting youth development, was adopted by the Governor's Crime Commission in 1997. It provides research based tools to help promote the positive development of children and youth and prevent adolescent substance abuse, delinquency, teen pregnancy, school dropout and violence. The process is inclusive, engaging all areas of the community in promoting healthy development. It is proactive, targeting early predictors 'of problems, based on rigorous research. ~ It is specific to the local community in that each community uses its own data-based profile in planning. The CTC system will guide the JCPC. in measuring risk and protective factors in the community and will assist them in constructing a continuum of interventions relevant to the situation. All JCPCs are currently undergoing training in CTC through UNC-Chapel Hill 'School of Social Work and the Jordan Institute for Families. ,. N 132 ~ ~ :. ' ': ~~ Goals:. .

Data continues to be collected in a manner consistent with training established. by Developmental Research and Programs and sponsored by the Office of . Juvenile Justice in association with the Jordan Institute for Families. Examples of performance measures are as follows: - juvenile drug. arrest rates, child abuse reports, school violence incidents reports, teen pregnancy rates among 10-14 year olds, advisory group participation reports, number of collaborative efforts among children, youth and family service agencies, and the number of calls to information and referral program. Evaluation of the project goals occurs annually based upon the ongoing compilation of statistics from a variety of sources.

Courier 56-32-21 Ann F. Wolfe, M.D., M.P.H., Diresaor Inlay 5, 2000 - FROM: SUBJECT: Local Health Directors TBNurses r. Raoult Ratard, TB Medical Director March Toward TB Elimination II y~a~ The Tuberculosis Control Program announces the availability of funds to assist local health departments in strengthening their tuberculosis control programs. Health departments are requested to submit proposals for funding special projects by June 30, 2000. ' Suggested Problems to be addressed: • Rapid identification of newly infectious tuberculosis cases, rapid initiation of an appropriate treatment and monitoring of the infectiousness of each case are the main measures to prevent the transmission of tuberculosis. Laboratory services allowing examination of;sputums ale provided by the State Laboratory. However sputum collection is found to be lacking among patients unable or unwilling to submit specimens. $p~um induction is acost-effective way of obtaining sputum without having to .resort to more expensive'techniques 1ike,gastric washings or bronchial lavages. This program aims to develop the health departments' capacity to obtain induced sputum with acquiring portable sputum induction devices, sputum induction booths or setting up systems to collect sputums in a safe manner. • Ensuring that infectious tuberculosis cases are kept~under adequate treatment to prevent transmission of tuberculosis and development of resistant strains. Directly observed therapy (DOT) is the main method used to maintain patient adherence to the therapeutic regimen. DOT is a labor intensive and time consuming activity. Innovative approaches are needed to implement DOT under special circumstances. This program aims at encouraging testing. and implementation of innovative approaches to DOT and improvement of patients' adherence. .. • An ever-increasing proportion of tuberculosis case patients is of foreign origin. Poor communication between health care provider and their client is a main obstacle to patient adherence. This program " aims at improving communication through language training or workshops that offer cross cultural training and awareness for staff dealing with tuberculosis patients of foreign origin. ' • Using computerized registers of cases (such as CounTB), contacts and infected individuals is an important tool for the improvement of epidemiological surveillance. This announcement aims at promoting the use of computerized registers of cases, contacts and LTBI individuals: • Elimination of tuberculosis entails preventing the development of disease among those who have latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI). Effective interventions include testing of population at high'risk of infection and adherence to .proper LTBI treatment. Detailed epidemiological knowledge of the distribution of LTBI among the vopulation served is necessary to appropriately determine the targeted population group for testing.

' '4U ~,, March Toward TB Elimination Request for Funding by New Hanover County Health Department to North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Division of Public Health/Tuberculosis Control Program ' June 20, 2000 ' New Hanover County Health Department is requesting $10,000 funding to strengthen the local tuberculosis (TB) control program and implement demonstration projects for replication in other areas of North Carolina. Funding is requested to~ work on specific activities to improve TB services and data used to evaluate effectiveness of the TB program in New Hanover County. Funds would be spent by June 30, 2001. $300 is requested to purchase a portable sputum induction device and supplies: There are occasions when individuals are referred to the local hospital for induced sputum collections, some whom receive bronchoscopies. These situations occur when there are questionable x-rays, positive skin tests, or symptomatology suggestive of TB acid the individual does not produce a sputum specimen.. The ability to induce. the specimen collection by.the TB program staff would reduce unnecessary costs and delays and improve the quality of diagnostic specimens submitted to the State Lab. 2. $3,400 is requested to implement CountTB to computerize surveillance information, thereby improving. the ability to easily review management of cases and individuals: A laptop computer is requested to be used by clinical staff (physician, nurse practitioner, and nurses). CountTB would be installed on desktop computers and laptop and be accessible to the. TB clerk, x-ray technician, and clerical staff. 3. $1,800 is requested to produce a video using actual patients (disguised if they prefer) to tell their stories to others. There are .several individuals who can give dramatic testimony about the importance of taking preventive therapy to prevent disease development-stories that include failures and successes.. The video will be copied to be used as loaners to all new cases and individuals with LTBI as one component of patient education. By allowing the individuals to watch the video in the privacy of their homes, family members can also participate and hopefully become supportive for completion of therapy. The video would be approximately 20 minutes long and use patients and TB program staff to promote success .in completion of therapy.' 4. $300 is requested to develop materials for incarcerated individuals to be given upon release from the local jail.

It's a serious disease caused by a type of bacteria'that can be spread from person to person through. the air. TB most often infects the lungs, but may infect other parts of the body, such as the kidneys, bones, or the brain. TB can be fatal, but it doesn't have to be. Because TB is on the rise, it's important to know more about it. - HOW IS TB SPREAD? TB can be spread by people sick with TB disease who spray the bacteria into the air from their mouths by coughing, laughing, sneezing, and occasionally by singing or just speaking. TB is most commonly spread to people in confined, -poorly ventilated spaces. You cannot get TB by touching drinking glasses, bed linens, or doorknobs. TB DISEASE. OR TB INFECTION.? TB Disease Keep in mind that, although many people are ..infected with TB, very few develop TB disease. TB disease means the tuberculosis bacteria are active and multiplying in your body and-can be spread to~other people. TB disease almost alvvays causes symptoms that may include any of the following: . ..• a ;lasting; cough • • ~ fatigue ~~ • coughing up blood • fever • loss of appetite ' ® weight loss • .night sweats - TB disease can almost always be cured, but it may be fatal if medication is not taken properly. TB Infection If you have TB infection, you've been exposed to TB. You have the bacteria, but the.bacteria are inactive. You have no symptoms. TB infection may become disease if your immune system is weakened 'with other illnesses, certain medications, HIV infection, or unhealthy lifestyles. - TB infection (without disease) is not contagious and will not spread, #o others. The only way to know if you have TB infection is to be tested with a TB skin test (PPD). Some people with infectort~ _. ar ale to take medication to prevent the development of disease.

In 1999, the Coalition established 2 goals aimed at reducing the burden of diabetes in New Hanover County. The two goals are explained under a latter section. These are:. 168 1. Educating Patients 2. Communicating with Physicians COUNTY LOCATION New Hanover County is located in southeastern North Carolina and is bounded on the east by the Atlantic Ocean, on the west by the Cape Fear River and I-40. The port city of Wilmington dominates New Hanover County, North Carolina's smallest county geographically yet the State's 10th largest in population. Wilmington is the county seat and the only city (there are 3 beach communities: Carolina Beach, Kure Beach, and Wrightsville Beach). The entire area is characterized by healthy and steady economic growth. BURDEN OF DIABETES IN NEW I-IANOVER COUNTY In the 1998 New Hanover County Community Diagnosis, one of the county's Five Leading Health Problems was identified in the Personal Health area. Diabetes was identified as one of the serious health problems (See ATTACHMENT I-New Hanover County's Five Health Problems} which needed targeted strategies for prevention, interventions, and resources. The burden of diabetes is considerable in New Hanover County. Documentation ofafhis is shown in the following paragraphs through statistics from the State. Center for Health Statistics and Diabetes Control Program {DCP), Division of Community Health Department; Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Raleigh, N.C. The publication these statistics are taken from is The.. Burden o, f Diabetes in North Carolina, published through the Diabetes Control. Program. r'~ J .. ., ~ , . , i ~ ~ _ . ~, " ~ ~ ~ - ' Although New-Hanover's Diabetes Mortality Rate of 19:0 is slightly `less than ~ the. State's rate of 22.2, this is of great concern because deaths due to'diabetes are particularly high -', among. residents of North Carolina. In 1992-1994; North Carolina ranked 12th highest ~ . - among all 50 states and the District of Columbia on both crude age and race-adjusted .., • ~ ..Diabetes Mortality Rates. ~ ~ . , .. y - . e ' ~ ~~ - Diabetes contributes significantly to, health care cost: * ~.

One measure,-of the burden of diabetes. and its effect on the quality of life is the number . of~hosptalization days for Diabetes, either as a primary or secondary diagnosis. In 1997;; New-Hanover County had 2,256 hospitalizations for this condition, resulting in a cost of . - -'$30,625,571.. The total of hospitalization days.was 14,8 1 for an average length of stay. - ' ~ of 6.6 days.. :... " •,.. ; . - .. ., _ • . ~ , .New Hanover County's non-white population is steadily'increasing: This "causes- ' _ A ;considerable concern since diabetes is dsproportionately~higher for non-.whites, and,non- ; ' whites are approximately three times more likely to die .from diabetes. - .. $tatistes from` 1996 on~the Prevalence of Diabetes in Adults age 20 and above' show New ~ ' . Hanover County had 5,14 (Total Population Estunated. Diabetes) diagnosed with ~ ° . diabetes:. There were 3,556 (69%) in the white population and 1,589 (31%) in the'non- ~° white population... Since the population ofNew Hanover County is only 22-2~% non- ..

Since we know that diabetes is more ' '~ ~ common"among the elderly; this. poses another great concern.., ` '' (Please note hat.none.of the statistics above include adolescents or children with diabetes ° " ' . or diabetes, related health issues, so the Burden'of Diabetes in New Hanover County is ' ~` ' much larger~than these, statistics demonstrate.) • '" .. . - :. ;: ,. - - . . . .. _• - _ . , - . . ~., ~, -: , . .. w. . , ,. ~ ::. _ - 2.

The hospital sponsored diabetes education center was closed May 12, 2000 due to budgetary cuts. This ADA certified operation provided an interdisciplinary health care team to assist persons diagnosed with diabetes. (The manager of the center was also the co-chair of the Diabetes Today Coalition). With-this resource gone from our region, diabetes has become headline news. Our coalition is working with a group of concerned physicians to help develop alternative solutions to address the need for diabetes education and management. Coalition Development Coalition members were trained using the Diabetes Today model. Training was supplemented by health care professionals including an endocrinologist, a podiatrist, a pharmacist and an ophthalmologist. Coalition members were provided with a manual that was developed as training was conducted. ' Focus Activities will be concentrated on African Americans aged 45 and above. Awareness will focus on foot and eye complications. First Year Activities Activities during the first year included the printing of information cards on four critical screenings for people with diabetes: Blood Pressure, Al C, foot screening, eye screening. These cards were mailed with a cover letter to over 600 pastors requesting that the information be publicized within the church. Additionally, these cards have been distributed at the annual diabetes fund raising walk, at a grocery store sponsored activity and in public places - nutrition sites, Senior Center, and the Consumer Health Library. Plan for Year Two The coalition plans to sponsor one project per quarter to include a community kickoff in November 2000. Planned in cooperation with the UNCW School of Nursing, Take Control Day will link with flu and pneumonia awareness. A physician training is planned for late winter/early Spring using the Patterns of Care manual. Foundation funding will be pursued to develop ongoing educational services. ~~ Trish Snyder Coordinator,- Diabetes Today ~. 176 PJ A. ~ .- o '"" .. ..

New Hanover County Health Department would like to start a new program to provide enhanced counseling services to newly diagnosed HIV-infected individuals and high risk STD clinic users. The program will offer multiple counseling sessions to two types of .clients seen at the health department: individuals infected with HIV or other Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) and individuals at high risk of acquiring STDs, as determined during the initial interview at the clinic. The purpose of the enhanced counseling program is to assist these individuals in preventing the transmission of their disease to others, avoiding the acquisition of additional STDs, and accessing the resources that will help them cope with their diagnosis and other relevant .issues, such as substance abuse or mental health services. The program will target the marginalized groups that are disproportionately affected by HIV and other STDs, such as low-income individuals, young people, members of ethnic/racial minorities, and people who abuse drugs and alcohol. The program will provide transitional support services to individuals newly diagnosed with HIV or other STDs in the period immediately following the diagnosis. It is during this vulnerable time that newly diagnosed individuals are most in need of information and support. Through self-esteem work, assertiveness training, role plays, and education, newly diagnosed individuals will be encouraged to adopt safe behaviors so that they do not spread their infection to .others or acquire additional STDs. HIV-infected individuals will additionally be linked to one of the three HIV case managers in New Hanover County, who will assist them with long term medical, psychological, and psychosocial needs. The program will also provide enhanced client-centered counseling services to individua°''~~ at high risk of acquiring HIV/STDs who visit the STD clinic. These individuals include tr,, J. following visitors to the STD clinic: teenagers under the age of 17, individuals who visit the clinic three or-more times per year, teenagers brought to the clinic from the Juvenile Detention Center, and individuals engaging in high risk behavior, as determined during the initial interview. The purpose of the enhanced counseling is to empower these clients to take control of their health and prevent themselves from acquiring STDs. The enhanced counseling sessions will offer these individuals the :tools, such as education, assertiveness and behavioral skills, to help them adopt safer behaviors. According to the STD Clinic Nurse Coordinator at New Hanover County Health Department, approximately 40% of STD clinic users are repeat clients: they come to the clinic for treatment, but once a specific infection is treated, they continue to engage in the same risky behaviors until they end up in the clinic again. Currently, clinical testing and treatment services do not allow time for client-centered counseling with follow-up visits specifically designed to reduce risky behaviors. It is time to stop focusing solely on treatment; we must put more of our efforts into prevention. The enhanced counseling program aims to prevent infected individuals from transmitting their disease to others, and to prevent all clients from acquiring any additional STDs or HIV. This goal is achievable through intense counseling sessions that focus both on behavioral change interventions and on linking individuals to long-term resources, such as case management, substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, domestic ~aolerce shelters, and health care',;.~The more comprehensive approach will facilitate behavioral change to adopt a healthier lifestyle. The salary money will be aced to hire a full-time Master's level social worker to implement program services. 184 T... (1JV iVVl t'.JiI.~~L inlJ ~rr~~,l:~ . ~Z. SMITH REYNOLDS FOUNDATION, INC.

The, focus is maintenance • ; ~ - and rirstoration of health and HIV/STD Prevention. The target population consists of people who are- : ": infected with HIV/STDs or who are at high risk for infection, which are primarily-young people, people: • - ` ° ~ of. color, women, and men who have sex with men.. .:. ~ : - ' - ` ~ '~ New Hanover County Health Department (NHC1-ID) offers STD screening, treatment, education, . ~ and HIV counseling and testing services. Aclient-centered counseling model is utilized, but a single .risk- `' -~ ' reduction session is not sufficient to effect change in those at greatest risk. Quite often; infected• , individuals are wrestling with'issues that complicate their ability to make behavioral changes; such as - • ; :, ~ - substanee'abuse, domestic violence, denial; and mental health problems. Resources to overcome these : , difficulties have either. not been available or not utilized by these individuals.. ~ Services including. case ' ..., . management, substance abuse'treatment, mental health counseling, and.health care exist in our community to benefit HIV+ individuals, and areoffered to them during their one post-test counseling session at N~-ICHD. ~ However; this post-test counseling session, in which test result`s are given, is not the - ~ ` ~~- ideal time to address all the ramifications of the diagnosistland develop a treatment plan. According to the .. . ,. ; ease~manager for the HIV Care Team at New Hanover Health Network, approximately 30% ofthese _ . _ . °• .~.' ' .:newly diagnosed HIV+ clients do not follow up to seek additional services. The CDC reports a one to ~~ - .. - ' ~ fiveyear delay,befiween HIV<infected youth learning their test results and.seeking treatment.. By offering '.. ~ individuals increased awareness of and accessibility to available resources, along with enhanced client- ,. .• - ~ centered counseling to confront the underlying. issues,• the new program. can both empower individuals to take: care of their health and protect others by preventing the transmission of HI~I'and other STDs. . , ,. ` ` A January, 2000 article. in the American Journal of Public Health (Diamond C;: Buskin S. y y ) continueto exhibit ; Continued risk behavior inHIV-infected outh asserts that HIV-infected individuals .. .risky :behaviors, including unsafe sex and. needle sharing, after learning their HIV diagnosis. ,The study ` - found that 66% ofHIV-infected.. young women, 46% of infected .adult women, 28% of infected young ' -, . ~ ~ men, .and 16% of infected adult men exhibited evidence of risky.behaviors after they. learned.. their - e ~° diagnosis. Several studies document that STD .incidence rates in HIV-infected women do not '• .; ~: significantly differ from those among women who do not have HIV. These studies demonstrate theLneed ': to focus prevention efforts on HIV+ people.. Traditionally, prevention and treatment services"have been A• -~ .• ,separate when,`in fact; these two interventions must coincide,to lower the rates of HIV and • ;~,~ ~. ~5 . _ a. .. . . r. infection. The project proposed by NHCHD will unite these .two formally disparate interventions. The plan is to provide transitional support services to individuals newly diagnosed with HIV or other.-STDs. in the period immediately following diagnosis. The program will accept referrals from private providers as well in order to offer transitional support services to all newly diagnosed HIV+ individuals in the community. The new program will also offer client-centered counseling services to individuals at high risk of acquiring HIV/STDs who visit the STD clinic, including teens under the age of 17, individuals'who visit the clinic three or more times per year, teens brought from the Juvenile Detention Center, and individuals engaging in high risk behavior, as determined in the initial interview. The program will serve approximately 700 individuals during a one year period: In:1999, 50 cases. of HIV or AIDS were. diagnosed in New Hanover.County, either through NHCHD or through a ` private provider; as of June, 2000, 23 cases of HIV/AIDS have been diagnosed in the county in the year 2000. Taking these figures into account; approximately 40-60 newly diagnosed HIV+ individuals will be referred to the enhanced counseling program during its first year, and approximately 650 individuals who either have an STD other than HIV or are at high risk will be referred 'to the program.

RICE, M.P.H., M.A. Health Director LYNDA F. SMITH, M.P.A. Assistant Health~Director. New Hanover County Health Department (NHCHD) is requesting funding to continue an . adolescent peer education program-that focuses on HIV prevention, entitled TAP (Teen AIDS. Prevention). The purpose of TAP`is to give adolescents the opportunity to send positive messages to their peers to counteract all of the negative pressures that continuously bombard them, and for teenagers to be able to learn the skills, information, and, support from peers that will help them to avoid engaging in risky behaviors.. By providing information, teaching personal risk reduction strategiesand serving as role models for their peers, TAP peer~educators help to foster a social climate where it is comfortable and acceptable for adolescents to avoid risky behavior. The TAP program educates teenagers that the risk- taking behaviors that expose 'them to HIV and other STDs also compromise their potential for healthy anal productive adult lives. The TAP program offers adolescents the information, skills, and self-esteem building exercises that'lead to increased self-confidence, improved health, and attainment of life goals. The specific amount being requested is $59,000. ~ ' NHCHD began the TAP peer education program in January, 1999. Please see the Appendix for a separate page on previous accomplishments ofTAP. The program began in order to address a growing problem observed among youth both in North Carolina and in New Hanover County. Teens account for 3% of all reported AIDS cases within North Carolina, which is more than three times greater than the -t .cumulative percentage for the United States. New Hanover County has an STD infection rate that is more than two times higher than the state average. Since 1995, one-fifth to one-fourth of all NHCHD STD clinic patients have consistently been under the age of 20. By their very presence in the STD clinic, these teenagers are acknowledging that they are engaging in-risky behaviors. In April, 1:999,. the Search Institute published a report on New Hanover County adolescents in grades 6 through 12 entitled., "Developmental-Assets: A Profile.of Your Youth." According to the survey, 33% of students have had sexual intercourse one or more times, and an alarming 22% of students have had sexual intercourse three . or more times, in their life.. The Centers for.Disease Control has conducted research to determine effective strategies to reduce the risky behaviors of adolescents. Based on current data, the most effective. prevention strategy to reduce high risk behaviors among adolescents is to train peer leaders to provide;prevention messages to. at-risk,youth. Tlie TAP program is a response to this research=based evidence and is taking heed of .the survey results. describing the risk-taking behavior of New Hanover County adolescents. TAP espouses three main goals- these goals, as well as the objectives, activities, outputs, and outcomes that arise out of these goals, are found in more detail in the Appendix. The primary goal is to promote an environment in Wilmington and the surrounding. areas where personal health, safety, and positive life skills are more socially and personally desirable to young people than unhealthy_ alternatives such as unsafe sexual practices and drug/alcohol abuse. Two objectives fall under this goal: to ensure - that 85% of program participants score at least a 30% reduction in risky behaviors'on the post-test portion of apre- .and post-test behavioral instrument; and to ensure that 80% of program participant report choosing abstinence or safer sexual practices 95% of the time; as measured by~the follow-up 1 ~~urvey administered to each program participant three months after they attend a TAP~presentation. 0 + The `second goal is to empower adolescents to make a positive difference in their own and other ` .• teenagers' lives through education, eadership and being a role model for other teenagers. Iri order to • ' .: ~~ achieve~tlus goal, TAP program staffhave developed two objectives: to ensure that"95% ofpeer health. . educators report practicing abstinence ~or safer sexual practices; as measured by a behavioral ~~„ questionnaire• administered every 3 months; and to: ensure that 95% of peer health educators score •95% - "' ' .: or higher on a knowledge test after a 40 hour training period.. ~ ' ,, ' The third goal is to facilitate theexchange of ideas and open communication between TAP-trained ~~ ~ `' teens and their'peers, and provide opportunities for question and answer sessions. The: following .objectives will measure-this goal: ensuring that 85% of evaluations of presentations.filled.out by{ ` ~adolescent.audiences give: a score of "excellent" for the overall rating of the presentation; and.receiving' • requests "to return for additional presentations from 80% of organizations visited. ' ' . TAP currently consists of twenty peer educators who have received intensive: training in,': . ~ ;~ .. " HIV/STD information and presentation skills. The TAP peer educators are a diverse group of - ~ ~ adolescents: ranging in age from 14 to 21, they come frornAfrrcan-American; Caucasian, and Latino backgrounds. 'One of the peer educators is HIV-infected, and acquired HIV perinatally.. The peer . ..~ educators were interviewed and. carefully selected by the TAP program coordinator, and share three main • ... - :attributes: they demonstrate a zeal for helping their peers, they are dedicated to alleviating the problems faced by adolescents, and they come from.communities and demographic groups that have been targeted ' ;• as "at-risk" for HIV and other STDs. In order to make a difference in the community, it was essential for TAPao select peer educators who are the true peers of teenagers at risk of:acquiring.HIV or other STDs, ~. .:.and not• simply teenagers with active leadership roles in the schools. The.. subgroup of teens targeted ,for -TAP training falls in the category of financially needy 'and medically underserved. Some of the TAP peer . ' educators"come from single parent homes and some lack an adult mentor. The TAP-coordinator serves as an adult mentor for them; helping them through crises and periods of doubt in themselves: TAP provides an opportunity for.teenagers to develop a higher sense ofself-esteem. Research shows that.,. " . ' teenagers who have a higher self-esteem, as well as a supportive adult mentor, are less likely, than other ~.: ,teenagers to`engage in behaviors that put-them at risk for HIV and other STDs. If refunded, TAP " • program staffplan to train a minunum of eight additional peer educators in the following year. a 3= The educators usefour methods to reach the target population: a series of small group programs; o ; community outreach; a play, and one-on-one outreach.. Although the focus of presentations is HIV . prevention, TAP peer educators present on a wide range of topics inclining self-respect, HIV/AIDS :. :.facts; assertiveness training, effects of drugs and alcohol on decision making, awareness of personal . ;~ values, problem=solving skills; sensitivity fo stereotypes, dealing with peer pressure,.liealthy relationships, - ,. . _~ and communication skills. For maximum effectiveness and retention of information, TAP staffprefer to 'give a series of three to six weekly presentations for each group of adolescents. Nevertheless, TAP's ~'' scheduling flexibility allows it to adapt easily to the needs of collaborating organizations. Currently, TAP gives approximately 3-5 presentations per week; and TAP receives daily requests for presentations. TAP ' ". presentations have enabled hundreds of teenagers to discuss issues of concern to them in an environment •• where they receive -both correct information and respect for their opinions. - ' =The TAP program collaborates with a wide array of community groups.. For example, TAP peer _"- educators give. a presentation every Wednesday morning to adolescents at~the Juvenile Detention Center. TAP peer educators also give presentations every Thursday after school,. during the. school year,. for ' .- teenage residents .of the Nesbitt Courts housing project. TAP travels beyond Wilmington's•citylrmits u ". order `to reach teenagers. In addition to New Hanover County; TAP has traveled to ahe more rural ~. Duplin; Brunswick, Pender, and Columbus Counties to give.presentations. With funding, TAP aims`to ~ ; .. .. _ .. t_ . _ ,, ~. give a minimum of 50 presentations to at least 25 community groups during the coming year. The second method of reaching adolescents is through outreach activities. TAP peer educators set up booths in places where they can reach other adolescents: in the mall, at schools, and in other locations it;the,,community. If funded, TAP plans to continue to participate in healthfairs. and other ' outreach activities iri the community. With funding, TAP aims to reach at least 1,000 more youth through presentations and community outreach in the next year. The third method of reaching adolescents is through drama. Two TAP peer educators wrote a thirty minute play about peer pressure; stereotypes, sexuality, relationships, and alcohol abuse. The peer educators have presented the play for two community groups; ,if TAP is refunded, they will continue;to ''perform the play around Wilmington and hope to present the play in the New Hanover County schools. The fourth method of educating adolescents is through one-on-one .street outreach. TAP peer educators are encouraged to provide .one-on-one informal education to their peers, sharing HIV and STD prevention education with other teenagers. Peer educators are also trained to provide their.peers with support 'and referrals for teen issues such as depression, pregnancy, and substance abuse. With additional funding, TAP aims to provide 200 more one-on-one sessions in the next year. TAP staff will administer a standardized pre- and post-test behavioral questionnaire to all program participants. NHCFID will contract with a PhD Epidemiologist in order to analyze data.. The . questionnaire is a modified version of the Prevention Minimum Evaluation Data Set developed by the Sociometrics Corporation.' The post test will be administered to all program participants three months after their attendance at a TAP presentation. . TAP peer educators will be required to complete the pre-test behavioral questionnaire before they begin their training. They will then complete the post-test every three months. In addition, .pre- and post-test instruments that measure increase in knowledge have been designed by TAP staff.for use, by peer educators before and after they complete 40 hours of training.. Program participants complete an evaluation form after presentation's,, so that peer educators can assess skills that need improvement. The TAP coordinator collects program data using forms to document the number of education sessions conducted, the type of activity performed, the location of the activity, the number of participants or contacts, the characteristics of groups of individuals'receiving the information, and referrals made. The total funds required for the project are $59;000. In addition to the Z. -Smith Reynolds Foundation, Inc:; the TAP program will submit grant.proposals to the Cape Fear Memorial Foundation and MetLife Foiindati®n. TAP program staff are waiting to hear a reply from a letter of inquiry sent to the Design Industries Foundation Fighting AIDS. ` NHCHD~~is a local publie health department serving the citizens;ofNew,Hanover and surrounding counties. The mission of the organization is to protect the public health'and environment, promote healthy living, acid .optimize the quality of life through preventive, restorative, environmental and educational services. ~ NHCHD-has eleven divisions that offer programs for the prevention of disease and the promotion of health. The Communicable Disease Division (CDD) provides medical and educational services to screen, treat,' and prevent the spread of communicable diseases. Although TAP is riot anew program, it has been in existence for only a year and a half. TAP is a long term investment in our teenagers. It takes years to change attitudes and behaviors in a society full of negative messages.. That does not deter TAP but rather magnifies the necessity for efforts to continue: TAP in this .community. - . David E.

Copley County Attorney Allen O'Neal County Manager Lucie F. Harrell Clerk to the Board The New Hanover. County Board of Commissioners is writing in support of the proposed family care home "Our Children's Home" in Wilmington, North Carolina. This facility, to be operated by Ms, Nneka E'foma Machupa would provide a residential setting for the deaf and hard of hearing in Southeastern North Carolina. This facility would serve residents of varying disabilities. At this time, the nearest home serving the deaf and hard of hearing is in Charlotte, which presents a great hardship for families in our area who need services such as those Ms. Machupa proposes. We believe that Ms. Machupa's proposed home is worthy of an exception to the state's moratorium on the expansion of family care homes and we request an exemption from the moratorium as provided in N.C.G.S, Chapter 131, Article L Yours truly, William A. Caster, Clariirnan~1 • ~ ~cr~~~~,'1 New Hanover County Board of Commissioners } .{ . ~~ .~, ~-- MINUTES OF REGULAR MEETING MONDAY, FEBRUARY 7., 2000 PAGE 741 Request for Exemption From the State Moratorium on Opening Family Care Homes for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Population Ms. N. Efoma Machupa, a resident of 3401 Chalmers Drive, asked the Board to request an exemption frorn the State moratorium on opening a My Children's House exclusively for the deaf and hard of hearing inNew.Hanover County. -She advised that underN.C.G.S., Chapter 131, Article I, the Board of County Commissioners can request an exemption from the moratorium. In concluding the presentation, Ms. Machupa stated if certification is granted by the State to open a home in New Hanover County, the deaf and hard of hearing population'willhave a faeilitythat will teach the American Sign Language and meet other, needs of this special population. After discussion of the law regarding moratoriums, the Board requested County Attorneys" .:; Copley to review the legal aspects of the law and place this item on a future agenda, if appropriate. 228 MY C'HIIDREN'S HDUSE 230 Dear Honorable .County Commissioner, I am here today to .request an exception to the Moratorium to open Family Care Homes exclusively for the deaf and hard of hearing. I am asking for a G.S. Chapter 131 Article #1 certification to open My Children's House. My Children's House will be a Family Care Home devoted to serving exclusively the deaf and hard of hearing population in this community. At this time. the nearest home serving this population is located in Charlotte, the next closest is in Asheville. As of 1991 statistics for North Carolina, New Hanover County specifically there are over 120, 691 deaf/hard of hearing persons. Though adeaf/hard of hearing individual would be able to stay in a "focal" facility, the cost of providing interpreter services is upward of $20 plus per hour making the utilization of services and communication for basic needs impractical for one person. The staff at My Children's House will be trained in using American Sign Language (ASL), plus have the cultural skills at serving this population. The deaf/hard of hearing population of this community.deserves to have practical, useful and appropriate services to facilitate their needs:` ~ .

Camp Area Director Medical Director February 3, 2000 New Hanover County Board of Commissioners New Hanover County 320 Chestnut Street ~ - Wilmington, North Carolina 28401 Dear County Commissioners, This is a letter requesting the support of the Request for an $xception to the moratorium on the opening and development of new family care home in New Hanover County by Ms. Nneka E'foma Muchupa, of My Children's House.. This request is for a GS ; Chapter I31 Article #1 certification. I am currently employed at Southeastern Area Center~for Mental Health; Developmental. Disabilities and Substance Abuse Services as the Regional Coordinator of Deaf and Hard of Hearing Mental Health Services. I have been in this position since March 1996 and have seen the growing need for a Living situation for the individuals that I work with that provide opportunities for learning independent living skills in a environment that maximizes the language and cultural needs. The way that this family care home differs from current family care settings is a similar peer group (all deaf or hard of hearing), language accessibility( the use of sign language or cued speech) .and accessibility-(use of TDD-Telecommunications Devices. -for the Deaf, .flashing doorbells and fire detectors, vibrating and/or flashing alarm clocks and flashing door knockers for individual's rooms: In addition, individuals residing in this home will: have the support of. Southeastern Area Center for Mental Health support as well as the North Carolina Division for Deaf and Hard ofHearing-Regional Resource Center staff, and the North Carolina Department of Vocational .Rehabilitation. The most significant reason to support this is to initially allow six individuals the optimal living situation that allows for independence, ability to secure gainful employment and reside close to family.

'; P Y . x ~ :241 . .. . - . - - . - .: .,. ~ .: .: I I had a recent heart wrenching experience when I visited a hospital where I met a deaf young man. This young man begged me to take him home with me. You see Mr. O'Neal the young man is not sick just deaf and his family cannot deal with it. This is the case of many deaf persons they are institutionalized because they're deaf and the family ! cannot or will not learn to communicate with them. Yes some families find deafness an s embarrassment so they remove them from the home, family and love that should be given to them to assist and nurture them to become viable citizens as the "normal" (in their eyes and terms) other family members receive. Painful wouldn't your say? I would very much like to do all I can to assist. That is why I am requesting ~ audience with the Board of Commissions to explain and hopefully gain their assistance in -_' getting a by-pass to the moratorium so that the Board can exercise their power by granting.me certification to establish Family Care Homes for the Deaf specifically. I beg of you and the board to ,allow me to assist this population of people as they have all the right to a quality life as you and I as well as all living persons who exist not j only in the world but specifically in New Hanover County and the surrounding area. I t am appealing to you to schedule me to be heard February 7;,2000 as there is an urgency for this kind of housing for this population of people. My efforts help others but it sets a very good example for my son and cons and daughters of others'who face these challenges daily. i Respectfully Submitted, j ,!
