TECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE REPORT 1Technical Review Committee Report For November 2014 (Sam Burgess) OTHER ITEMS 1Approval of 2015 Planning Board Regular Meeting Schedule 2Other Business NEW HANOVER COUNTY PLANNING BOARD REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION MEETING DATE: December 4, 2014 REGULAR ITEM: DEPARTMENT: PRESENTER(S): Ben Andrea, Current Planning & Zoning Supervisor CONTACT(S): Ben Andrea; Ken Vafier, Planning Manager; and Chris O'Keefe, Planning/Inspections Director SUBJECT: Public Hearing Item 1: Rezoning Request (Z-936, 12/14) – Request by Paramounte Engineering to rezone 20.0 acres from R-15, Residential District, to R-10, Residential District. The subject property is located at the terminus of E. Lake Emerald Drive off of Gordon Road and classified as Urban according to the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. BRIEF SUMMARY: The request is for a general map amendment (rezoning) from R-15 to R-10 and not a conditional rezoning, so a specific development plan is not proposed in conjunction with the rezoning request. Public (CFPUA) water and sewer infrastructure are available to serve the site, and access to the site is via three public road stubs. An existing, developed R-10 district is adjacent to the east of the site. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff Suggested Motion: Motion to recommend approval, as the Planning Board finds that this request for a zoning map amendment of 20 acres from R-15, Residential District, to R-10, Residential District as described is: 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the “Urban” land use classification in the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan because the “Urban” classification allows for intensive development and redevelopment of existing urban areas. The subject site is adjacent to a residential neighborhood and in an area of focused urbanization of the county. The rezoning proposal supports Policy 5.7 of the CAMA Land Use Plan by preserving the character of the area’s existing residential neighborhoods and quality of life. 2. Reasonable and in the public interest because the character of the area is urbanized and many similar and compatible uses exist adjacent to and nearby the subject site.

Lake Emerald Drive, off of Gordon Road PID: R03500-006-362-000 LAND CLASS: Urban EXISITING CONDITIONS: Existing Zoning and Land Uses The 20 acre subject property is currently undeveloped and zoned R-15, Residential District. The site is located at the terminus of E. Lake Emerald Drive, approximately 0.3 miles off of Gordon Road. Two additional public streets stub to the subject property from the east: Tupelo Drive and Big Gum Road. Existing zoning in the area of the subject property consists mostly of R-15, Residential District, to the west, north and south, and an area of R-10, Residential District, to the east. While the parcel adjacent of the property to the west is zoned R-15 for residential use, the parcel is owned by the county and will be an expansion to the existing Smith Creek Park. Community Services Water and Sewer: The site is within the Urban Services Boundary and the CFPUA service area. Water and wastewater lines near the site could serve future development pending capacity authorization from CFPUA. Fire Protection: The property is served by New Hanover County Fire Services and located in the New Hanover County North Fire District. Schools: The property is located within the school districts for Murrayville Elementary, Trask Middle, and Laney High. Conservation, Historic, and Archaeological Resources The subject property does not host any known conservation, historic, or archaeological resources. Environmental Constraints: The property does not lie within any special flood hazard areas or CAMA Areas of Environmental Concern. However, the subject area may contain wetlands and it is advised that a wetlands assessment be conducted prior to any future development. Z-937, (12/14) Page 2 of 4 Traffic: A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) was performed for another nearby development proposal which provides current data on the functionality of Gordon Road (TIA Report, Proposed Gordon Road Multi-family Development, Wetherill Engineering, April 2014). Based on the data prepared for the TIA, the nearby signalized intersection of Gordon Road and Harris Road is operating atAaALevelAofAServiceA(LOS)AofA“C”AatA both AM and PM peak hours. Additionally, the other signalized intersections on Gordon Road are also functioningAatALOSAofA“C”,AexceptAMarketAStreetAandAGordonARoad,AwhichAfunctionsAatAanALOSAofA“F”. Future development of the site would allow for an opportunity to connect Weaver Acres to the neighborhoods along Harris and White Roads. ZONING HISTORY: Zoning was initially applied to this area via Area 8B on July 7, 1972, including the current zoning of R-15 of the subject property and surrounding area, as well as the R-10 zoning district to the east of the subject property. PETITIONER’S REQUEST: The petitioner is requesting a general map amendment (rezoning) of the 20 acre tract from R-15, Residential District, to R-10, Residential District. Because this is not a conditional rezoning or conditional use rezoning, the future use of the parcel will be open to the uses allowed by right and by Special Use Permit in the R-15 zoning district. STAFF POSITION: Zoning Ordinance Considerations The Zoning Ordinance states that the R-10 Residential District is established as a district in which the principal use of land is for residential purposes with access to either public water or public sewer. Public water and sewer infrastructure are nearby to serve future development of the site, pending capacity availability from CFPUA. The rezoning request would extend the boundary of the existing R-10 district, yet remain in harmony with the existing land uses and provide consistent transition to the surrounding environment. The rezoning will be consistent with the character of the existing neighborhood and also allow for pedestrian access to the existing Smith Creek Park. Land Use Plan Considerations The subject area is classified as Urban by the 2006 Wilmington-New Hanover County Joint CAMA Land Use Plan. The purpose of the Urban class is to provide for continued intensive development and redevelopment of existing urban areas. The 2006 CAMA Plan states that mixed use, cluster, and higher density development may be appropriate within Urban areas. REVIEW AND ACTION: This request has been processed and reviewed per Section 110 – Amending the Ordinance. A community information meeting is not required for a general map amendment request and was not Z-937, (12/14) Page 3 of 4 conducted prior to submitting the petition. Notices of the petition request have been disseminated per the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Staff recommends the approval of the proposal as requested. Staff concludes that the request is consistent with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and also the 2006 Wilmington-New Hanover County CAMA Land Use Plan. Staff feels that the request would be in harmony with the existing adjacent R-10 zoning district that was established in 1972, and would not diminish the character or quality of life of the community, supporting Policy 5.7 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Preserve the character of the area’s existing residential neighborhoods and quality of life. Staff feels that providing for increased residential density allowance in areas most suitable for development supports Policy 4.1 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Designate sufficient land area and suitable locations for the various land use types. Finally, the subject site is classified Urban, which allows for intensive development and redevelopment of existing urban areas. Increasing the density allowed on the site would support and be in harmony with the management strategies for the Urban land use classification.

The subject property is classified as Watershed Resource Protection according to the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. BRIEF SUMMARY: The request is for a conditional rezoning with the accompanying site plan for a 21-lot single family detached residential development. Access would be provided from Darden Road via a new driveway, and a stub has been provided for connectivity to adjacent future development. Public (CFPUA) water and sewer are available to serve the development, and traffic implications from the proposal are minimal. STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff Suggested Motion: Motion to recommend approval, as the Planning Board finds that this request for a zoning map amendment of 8.61 acres from R-20, Residential District, to CZD R-15, Conditional Residential Zoning District as described is: 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the “Watershed Resource Protection” land use classification in the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan because the “Watershed Resource Protection” classification allows for residential developments that minimize impervious surface areas and provide for stormwater impact mitigation per Policy 3.12. 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to provide for increased density in areas best suited for development while not impeding the quality of life of the existing residential community. Condition: 1. Impervious surface coverage shall be limited to twenty-five percent of the total site area, excluding areas within the NC DOT right-of-way for Darden Road.

When zoning was initially applied to this area in 1970, the subject property and the surrounding area were zoned R-15. In 1988, a rezoning petition (Z-351) was approved to rezone several Middle Sound neighborhoods and properties from R-15 to R-20 in the central portion of the Middle Sound community, excluding developments that were existing at the time such as Sandybrook, Treasure Cove, Queens Point, Brandywine, North Bend, Glen Arbor, and North Hills. The 1988 petition was initiated and requested by a Middle Sound community group called “Middle Sound Lookout”, and was requested in response to the May 4, 1987 Board of Commissioners adoption of a small area plan for the community, “Middle Sound/Ogden . Future Directions”… The basis for the rezoning request was one of four potential zoning options for the community, which suggested rezoning all undeveloped land to R-20. The proposed zoning options in the small area plan were suggested in response to concerns of the rate of growth of the Middle Sound/Ogden community, loss of rural atmosphere, and the ability of the road network at the time to accommodate the number of units possible with the R-15 zoning. It should be noted that the conditions of the Middle Sound community have changed significantly since the 1980s, including conversion of undeveloped lands to developed, transition from rural to suburban atmosphere, and a significant increase in the road network and interconnectivity supporting the community. Current zoning in the area is largely R-20 and R-15, and the subject property is situated in an area where the zoning transitions. Land uses in the Middle Sound Loop area are almost strictly residential, whereas the Market Street corridor provides an area of commercial and other non-residential uses with a B-2 zoning district. Existing Site Conditions The site is currently undeveloped and heavily vegetated. Darden Road bisects the western portion of the subject property, with a triangular 0.5 acre portion of the site on the western side of Darden Road, and the remainder on the east side of Darden Road. Z-937, (12/14) Page 2 of 5 Community Services Water and Sewer: The property is within the Urban Services boundary and is within the CFPUA service area. Fire Protection: The property is served by New Hanover County Fire Services and located in the New Hanover County North Fire District. Schools: The property is located within the school districts for Ogden Elementary, Noble Middle, and Laney High schools, all of which are currently over capacity. Students from new residential units in the Ogden Elementary School district are attending Castle Hayne Elementary School in the interim until the new Porters Neck area elementary school is constructed and is able to alleviate some of the population from Ogden Elementary. Conservation, Historic, and Archaeological Resources The subject property does not host any known conservation, historic, or archaeological resources. PETITIONER’S REQUEST: The petitioner is seeking to rezone the property from R-20, Residential District, to (CZD) R-15, Conditional Residential Zoning District with the accompanying preliminary plan for a 21-lot single-family detached performance residential development. The requested R-15 zoning would increase the density by an additional 5 lots over the current R-20 zoning. The petitioner presented the proposal to the County’s Technical Review Committee prior to application and has received initial comments and feedback from committee members. STAFF POSITION: Zoning and Subdivision Ordinance Considerations The draft preliminary plan was presented to the County’s Technical Review Committee for initial comments and feedback. Some modifications were made as a result of the comments received by the petitioner. As proposed, the plan complies with the applicable zoning and subdivision ordinance regulations. A more detailed review for compliance will occur when a formal application for preliminary plan review is submitted to the TRC after a successful rezoning. Traffic With the proposed number of lots (21), a Traffic Impact Analysis is not required for the proposal as the development would not create peak hour trip generation near the 100 trip threshold. Access to the site would be via a new driveway connecting to Darden Road, which will require a driveway permit from NC DOT. A stub to the property to the northeast has been provided for future development. Peak AM hour trips realized from the 21 residential lots will be ___, and peak PM hour trips will be ____. Environmental The project will be subject to several environmental regulations and permits. Stormwater management will be reviewed by New Hanover County Engineering, along with sediment and erosion control. Topography data shows a small depression in the area proposed for lots 15 and 16; field verification of Z-937, (12/14) Page 3 of 5 the site for wetlands will be necessary. Additionally, a tree survey will also need to be conducted. No flood hazard areas or CAMA Areas of Environmental Concern exist on the site. Landscaping and Buffering A 20’ wide perimeter buffer has been provided to meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Land Use Plan Considerations The site and surrounding area are classified as Watershed Resource Protection according to the 2006 CAMA Plan. Watershed Resource Protection is a subclass of the Resource Protection classification, and is geographically defined as within ½ mile of the 100-year flood plain for the tidal creeks within the county. The proposed change of zoning from R-20 to (CZD) R-15 would maintain consistency with the Watershed Resource Protection classification, which focuses on minimizing nonpoint source pollution as a result of stormwater runoff over impervious surfaces. Stormwater management will be required as part of the development, which supports the management intent of the Watershed Resource Protection class. Additionally, the net density increase that would be realized by the rezoning would significantly increase impervious areas that would be permitted by-right, and a 25% impervious surface limit is recommended as a condition of approval. Finally, substantial areas of R-15 zoning occur within areas classified as Watershed Resource Protection in the Middle Sound area. In summary, the proposal is consistent with the Watershed Resource Protection land use classification and does not conflict with any goal or policy within the Land Use Plan. REVIEW AND ACTION: This request is being facilitated by Section 55.3 – Conditional Zoning District of the County’s Zoning Ordinance, and has been processed and reviewed per Section 110 – Amending the Ordinance. A community meeting was held on Thursday, October 6, 2014 in accordance with the requirements for such a request. Eleven members of the public attended the meeting, and minor changes to the proposal were made as a result of the community meeting. Staff recommends the approval of the proposal as requested. Staff concludes that the request is consistent with the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance and also the 2006 Wilmington-New Hanover County CAMA Land Use Plan. Providing for increased residential density in appropriate developable areas supports Policy 4.1 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Designate sufficient land area and suitable locations for the various land use types. Staff feels that the zoning change would not interrupt or quell the character of community, supporting Policy 5.7 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Preserve the character of the area’s existing residential neighborhoods and quality of life. Finally, Staff recommends a condition of 25% impervious surface coverage maximum, as the design proposes conventional stormwater management versus integrated low impact development techniques. The proposed condition would ensure consistency with Policy 3.12 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Z-937, (12/14) Page 4 of 5 Carefully control development and redevelopment activities within the Watershed Resource Protection and Conservation areas identified on the Land Classification Map to prevent the degradation of water quality in creeks and sounds, to protect the public health, and to ensure the protection of these vital natural resources by reducing nutrient, pesticide, sediment, and other pollutants. a. Impervious surface coverage shall be limited to twenty-five (25%) in the Watershed Resource Protection and Conservation areas. b. Projects that conform to adopted exceptional design standards for enhanced stormwater controls may exceed 25% in the Watershed Resource Protection areas. c. Natural vegetative buffers shall be established to effectively filter runoff before it enters surface waters.
