Schuh, Clerk to the Board 2 COUNTY OF NEW HANOVER STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA ORDER GRANTING A SPECIAL USE PERMIT For Veterinary Office in CD(O&I) Zoning District Z-889, 7/08 The County Commissioners for New Hanover County having held a public hearing on August 4, 2008 to consider application number Z-889 submitted on behalf of owner Greenhouse Properties, LLC for a special use permit to locate a Veterinary Office in a CD(O&I) Conditional District approved under companion rezoning action, said proposal being located at the southeast corner of Carolina Beach Road and Manassas Drive on Tax Parcels R07906-005-020 and R07906-005-021, and having heard all of the evidence and arguments presented at the hearing, make the following FINDINGS OF FACT and draw the following CONCLUSIONS: The County Commissioners FIND AS A FACT that all of the specific requirements set forth in Section 71-1 and Section 59.7 of the County Zoning Ordinance WILL be satisfied if the property is developed in accordance with the plans submitted to the County Commissioners. 2. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the first general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety if located where proposed and developed according to the plan as submitted and approved. In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT: A. Private well water will serve the property. B. A private septic system will serve the project C. The property would access a local public street. D. Traffic counts decreased on Manassas Dr. between 2003 and 2006 but increased on Carolina Beach Road by about 8% in the vicinity of this site between 2003 and 2006. E. Traffic circulation system will be awkward with respect to proximity of the driveway to the intersection with Carolina Beach Road and the limited stacking capacity at the median break proposed on Manassas Dr. F. Fire Service is available from the Myrtle Grove FD. G. The property is not located in a flood hazard area. H. Stormwater retention is not shown on the site plan. The parcel is under one acre but would still be subject to review under the County's storm water ordinance. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the second general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use meets all required conditions and specifications. In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT: A. The property is zoned R-15 Residential District. This request is made concurrent with conditional rezoning to CD(O&I) Conditional Office & Insitutional District. B. The proposed veterinary use is allowed by special use permit in O&I districts. C. Office & Institutional uses are viewed as transitional uses between residential and higher intensity uses. D. Petitioner proposes 20 off-street parking spaces which exceeds the requirement of 12 spaces. E. Stormwater management is influenced by the water quality classification of the watershed. 4. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the third general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property, or that the use is a public necessity. In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT: A. No evidence has been submitted that this project will decrease property values of adjacent parcels. B. Stormwater management must perform in compliance with the requirements of the County stormwater ordinance. It is the County Commissioners' CONCLUSION that the proposed use DOES satisfy the fourth general requirement listed in the Ordinance; namely that the location and character of the use if developed according to the plan as submitted and approved will be in harmony with the area in which it is to be located and in general conformity with the plan of development for New Hanover county. In support of this conclusion, the Commissioners make the following FINDINGS OF FACT: A. The 2006 Land Use Plan identifies this area as Transition, which provides for future intensive urban development on lands that have or will have urban services. This site does not have those services. B. The residential character in this area is clearly delineated. Low-country design of the building is proposed by the applicant to be harmonious with the surrounding residential area. 6. Therefore, because the County Comrissioners conclude that all of the general and specific conditions precedent to the issuance of a SPECIAL USE PERMIT HAVE been satisfied, IT IS ORDERED that the application for the issuance of a SPECIAL USE PERMIT BE GRANTED subject to the provisions of conditional rezoning and limitations of the attached site plan and Section 69.4 of the zoning ordinance and the following additional conditions: A. That the applicant shall fully comply with all of the specific requirements stated in the Ordinance for the proposed use, as well as any additional conditions hereinafter stated and all other state or federal requirements. B. In accordance with Section 59.7-6(1) of the ordinance, a building permit must be issued within 24 months of approval or the action will be revoked C.
