The rail line then continues eastward through the City before turning south and west again — back toward the river and the Port of Wilmington. The sweeping path of the rail line thus forms a large "U" (on its side) which, at one time, wrapped around the eastern limits of the City; and WHEREAS, today, this same rail line passes through the heart of the City of Wilmington, resulting in thousands of motor vehicle rail crossings each day and adversely impacting the quiet enjoyment of many neighborhoods in the city; and WHEREAS, the City, NCDOT, Wilmington MPO and CSXT are currently working in partnership to complete a Traffic Separation Study to evaluate 31 roadway rail crossings along the CSXT ACB and Beltline rail line; and WHEREAS, the purpose of the Traffic Separation Study is to determine the need for improvements and /or elimination of public at -grade roadway /railroad crossings to improve safety for motorists, rail passengers and train crews; and WHEREAS, a potential alternative solution would be to relocate the existing rail line to a crossing of the Cape Fear River close to the Port property, thereby eliminating rail traffic through the heart of the city, and dramatically improving rail access to the Port; and WHEREAS, the relocation of the rail line would be beneficial to CSXT, the State Ports and the City of Wilmington by eliminating tens of thousands of at grade vehicular rail crossings on a daily basis, improving mobility throughout the City of Wilmington, and improving rail operations and safety en route to the ports; and WHEREAS, improved rail access to the Ports would also have benefits of Statewide significance, in terms of economic development of business and industry throughout North Carolina; and WHEREAS, direct rail access to the ports would also eliminate vehicular /rail conflicts with the proposed Independence Boulevard Extension project and obviate a primary justification for an elevated highway through the heart of Wilmington; and WHEREAS, in addition, the proposal would provide an opportunity to convert the existing heavy rail corridor, with all of its related safety and noise issues, into a quiet transit corridor; and Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 2 - 1 - 1 WHEREAS, such a conversion would improve the quality of life for nearby neighborhoods and all citizens of Wilmington, as well as reducing traffic congestion on streets within the city; and WHEREAS, such a transit service would stimulate investment in the many vacant and underperforming properties along the existing rail corridor, particularly on the south side of town; and WHEREAS, properties adjoining new transit lines in other cities have proven attractive for redevelopment as residential and mixed use centers; and WHEREAS, in the interim, the existing converted rail corridor could be utilized as a trail /greenway linking up with other City trails. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners hereby encourages the MPO, NCDOT and CSXT to complete a feasibility study to evaluate the relocation of the CSXT rail line across the river via a route that eliminates rail traffic through the heart of the City and which would provide a more direct rail access corridor to the Port of Wilmington.

District Attorney Benjamin David has asked the County to fund a full-time Forensic Chemist for the City of Wilmington Forensic Lab. The addition of the Chemist will lead to serious drug offenders being sentenced in a more timely manner, making our community a safer place for our citizens. Secondly, the Chemist may reduce the amount of time serious offenders are housed in the detention center awaiting trial, which will reduce detention center population and costs. The interlocal agreement will run from January 1, 2015 until June 30, 2018. At that time, the effectiveness of the additional position will be evaluated. The annual cost of the position is $83,459. Funds have been identified in the existing FY14 -15 budget for the contribution, and the FYI 5-16 budget will include funding for the continuation of the position. 0 Ntial 0 or" rf»IEVIL110 Wild I OWN 9 Superior Public Health, Safety and Education • Increase public safety and crime prevention RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Approve the interlocal agreement between New Hanover County and the City of Wilmington, for the City to fund a Forensic Chemist for the City of Wilmington Forensic Lab.

Ralph M. Evangelous Ws 615 Bess Street PO Box 1810 Wilmington, NC 28402 -1810 910 343 -3610 910 343 -3636 fax www.wilmingtonnc.gov Dial 711 TTY /Voice I am writing to you to present a proposal that would enhance the public safety of our County, inclusive of it municipalities. As I am sure you are aware, the Wilmington Police Department has a Forensic Lab that staffs one full -time Chemist, one part-time Chemist, and one part-time Forensic Technologist. The Police Department's Forensic Lab has been operational since 2009. We have the ability to complete blood alcohol tests (BAC) with a two week turn around, which assists with expediting DWI criminal trials. Conducting such trials in a timely manner has the effect of removing dangerous drivers off our streets and highways. Further, the Police Department's Forensic Lab conducts BAC testing for external stakeholders. The New Hanover County Sheriff's Office and the North Carolina Highway Patrol are two of our largest external stakeholders. The Department's lab is also capable of testing illegal and legal narcotics. Some of the narcotics we are able to test include Heroin, Cocaine, Marihuana, and prescription pills such as synthetic opioids and methamphetamines. Currently, our chemists conduct narcotics testing on a case -by -case basis. Benjamin David, our District Attorney has expressed the desire to expedite high priority drug cases and offenders. Many of these cases include trafficking offenses. Furthermore, many offenders are in the County jail awaiting trial; many are out on bond. The Police Department's lab is not staffed to prioritize narcotics testing and therefore unable to take the time to prioritize pending drug cases for the entire County. For these reasons I am proposing that New Hanover County identify and locate funds to provide for a full -time Forensic Chemist to be employed by the Police Department's lab. This particular position would test and Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 10- 2 - 1 complete all high priority drug cases awaiting trial for cases derived throughout all of New Hanover County. The benefits derived from having a full -time Forensic Chemist to prioritize drug testing would most certainly provide similar results experienced with the Department's BAC testing. The Department's Forensic Lab can provide drug testing results in less than 60 days. The current turnaround time with the State's lab is approximately one year. Criminal trials can be conducted in a timelier manner, which will result in the incarceration of dangerous offenders. Additionally, offenders being sentenced to the State's prison system or the Federal prison system would shift the costs of housing those offenders awaiting trial away from the local tax payer. The cost of funding a Forensic Chemist for one year, inclusive of benefits is $75,574. With supplies and necessary training the total cost to fund for this position for one year is $83,459. The City is willing to start mid fiscal year and would prorate associated costs for funding a Forensic Chemist. At 1/2 year the cost would be approximately $41,729. This proposal provides a win -win situation where serious drug offenders are sentenced in a timelier manner, making our community a safer place for our citizens. Second, there is an opportunity to free up jail space at our County facility, which may reduce the cost of housing serious offenders while awaiting trial. If you would like to discuss this proposal further, please feel free to contact me. I may be reached at 910.343.3610. 1 look forward to your correspondence. Sincerely, Ralph M.

Summary of Request American Towers, LLC, applicant, is requesting a Special Use Permit to construct and operate a 195' monopole telecommunications tower facility on a 70' x 136' leased area on a 52.83 acre site located at 5500 block of Marvin K. Moss Lane. The property currently hosts the UNCW Center for Marine Science /CREST Research Park that was originally approved by Special Use Permit in 1991 and subsequently modified in 2000, 2003, 2007, and 2010. The development on site encompasses the development approved with the original SUP approval and modifications. A 70' x 136' leased area is proposed, which will encompass the tower, equipment pads, and required 25' buffer and fence. The tower area is situated adjacent to the stormwater management pond and an existing parking area, in the central area of the CREST Research Park site. The parcels immediately surrounding the site remain largely undeveloped, and the existing land uses in the area primarily consist of single family residential uses along Myrtle Grove Road. Preliminary Staff Findings of Fact (In Accordance with Section 71 of the New Hanover County Zoning Ordinance) Finding 1: The Board must find that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety where proposed and developed according to the plan as submitted and approved. A. Water and sewer infrastructure and capacity are available to serve the site, but not necessary for the proposed use. S -622, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 3 - 1 Pagel of 4 B. The subject property is located in the New Hanover County South Fire Service District. C. Access to the tower site will be provided by a 12' wide access easement /drive from Marvin K. Moss Lane. D. The subject site does not host any known cultural or archaeological resources. Staff Suggestion: Evidence in the record at this time supports a finding that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety where proposed. Finding 2: The Board must find that the use meets all required conditions and specifications of the Zoning Ordinance. A. Telecommunication Communication Facilities, Cellular, and Related Towers are allowed by Special Use Permit in the R -15 zoning district provided that the project meets the Standards of Section 63.5 -1 of the Zoning Ordinance. B. Section 63.5 -1(A) requires that the setback from any existing residential property line or residential zoning district boundary for any tower, antenna, or related structure in any zoning district be a distance equal to the height of the tower as measured from the base of the tower. The location of the proposed 195' tall tower is at least 245 feet from all adjacent property lines as well as any existing residential uses, exceeding the setback requirement of Section 63.5 -1(A). C. Section 63.5 -1(B)1 requires that the minimum distance between the tower and any other adjoining parcel of land or road must be equal to the minimum setback described in Section 63.5 -1(A), plus any additional distance necessary to ensure that the tower, as designed, will fall within the tower site. The proposed location complies with this provision, and no evidence has been submitted suggesting that additional distance is necessary. D. Section 63.5 -1(B)2 requires the applicant to submit photographs and statements as to the potential visual and aesthetic impacts on all adjacent residential zoning districts. A report sufficing this requirement was submitted as part of the application. E. Section 63.5 -1(C) requires a landscaped buffer with a base width not less than 25 feet and providing 100% opacity, in addition to a minimum 8 ft. tall fence surrounding the tower base. The proposed plans suffice this requirement. F. Section 63.5 -1(D) requires that applicants seeking construction of new towers, antennas, and related structures demonstrate through submitted written evidence that collocation on any existing tower, antenna, or usable structure in the search area for the new tower is not reasonable or possible. A report (RF Justification for AT &T Wireless Site 478 -112) has been submitted with the application, meeting this requirement. G. Section 63.5 -1(E) requires that towers 150' tall or less be engineered to accommodate a minimum of one additional provider. Evidence has been submitted demonstrating that this requirement has been met, and a Collocation Certification was also submitted by the applicant. H. Section 63.5 -1(F) requires certification that the construction or placement of the proposed facility complies with several federal regulations. An FCC Compliance S -622, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 3 - 2 Page 2 of 4 Assessment has been submitted and demonstrates compliance with the federal regulations mentioned in Section 63.5 -1(F). I. Section 63.5 -1(1) regulates the signage allowed on the tower and related equipment. The signage proposed is compliant with this ordinance provision. J. Section 63.5 -1(J) prohibits the storage of equipment, hazardous waste, or materials not needed for the operation, prohibits outdoor storage yards in a tower equipment compound, and prohibits habitable space within the compound area. The applicant's proposal complies with this ordinance section. K. Section 63.5 -1(L) requires that, when the proposed tower site is within 10,000 feet of an airport or within any runway approach zone, the applicant submit Form 7460 to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to assure compliance with all FAA standards. An FAA Aeronautical Evaluation was included with the application and indicates that the site is approximately 46,141 feet from the Wilmington International Airport and will comply with FAA regulations. Staff Suggestion: Evidence in the record at this time supports a finding that the use meets all of the required conditions and specifications of the Zoning Ordinance. Finding 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. The location of the proposed tower is in an area of the UNCW CMS /CREST Research Park that does not conflict with the other existing or planned uses of the facility. The site is significantly buffered from adjacent properties and existing residential uses. B. A 25' wide buffer surrounding the tower base will provide visual screening for future development. C. No evidence has been submitted that this project will decrease the property values of adjacent or nearby properties. Staff Suggestion: The evidence in the record at this time supports a finding that the use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property. Finding 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 2006 Wilmington -New Hanover County CAMA Land Use Plan classifies the area proposed for the tower site as Watershed Resource Protection, and the proposal is not in conflict with the intent of the Transition land use classification, and additionally, not in conflict with any other policy of the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. Staff Suggestion: Evidence in the record at this time supports a finding that the use is general conformity with the plan of development for New Hanover County. S -622, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 3 - 3 Page 3 of 4 SUMMARY Staff concludes that the applicant has demonstrated that the proposal complies with Section 63.5 -1 of the Zoning Ordinance Zoning Ordinance as well as the findings of fact specified in Section 71 of the Ordinance. Staff also concludes that, with the information submitted, the applicant has demonstrated that the proposal is not in conflict with the management strategy for the Watershed Resource Protection land use classification, and not in conflict with any other policies of the CAMA Land Use Plan. Note: A Special Use Permit is a quasi - judicial action requiring an evidentiary hearing and findings of fact. ACTION NEEDED (Choose one): 1. Motion for Approval (with or without conditions) 2. Motion to table the item in order to receive additional information or documentation (Specify). 3.

Moss Lane, 'Wilmington, NC (1) General Requirement #1 -- that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety if located where proposed and developed according to the Alan as submitted and approved: The proposed use will not materially endanger the public health or safety, if located and developed according to the plan submitted. The proposed use will have virtually no impact on traffic conditions in the vicinity or on the provision of services and utilities. It will not require water, sewer, or garbage collection services. The proposed facility will have virtually no impact on soil erosion or sedimentation and meets or exceeds all setback requirements. The proposed tower will fully comply with all FCC rules and standards regarding maximum permissible exposure to radio frequency emissions and public safety. The proposed use will be constructed to meet or exceed all ANSI and FAA requirements. Finally, the proposed use will have virtually no adverse impact on the protection of public, community, or private water supplies, including possible adverse effects on surface waters or groundwater. Thus, the proposed development will maintain the public health and safety of the community and will not materially endanger the public safety. To the contrary, the proposed use will enhance public safety. Wireless telecommunications services provide an alternative method of communication, which has proven crucial in times where the traditional, land -line communications systems are either inaccessible (e.g., when one's car breaks down while traveling or when boating) or are downed by extreme winds and weather. Towers of the type proposed here have consistently provided the only means of communication with family and emergency personnel in times of flood, high winds and other extreme weather conditions. Wireless towers, similar to the one proposed here, have withstood hurricane -force winds consistently without failing. Also, many households have either dropped their land -line phones and have become wireless only or even if they have a land -line phone, they prefer using their wireless device primarily for communication. In fact, most calls to 911 are now from wireless devices. In this case, the proposed tower will additionally provide service to the waterways to the east. Finally, all of the regulations and requirements applicable to the proposed use have been met and exceeded to ensure that the proposed use will have no adverse effect whatsoever on the public health or safety. (2) General Requirement #2 — that the use meets all required conditions and specifications of the Zoning Ordinance, The proposed use of the property is for an unmanned radio telecommunications facility consisting of a 199 foot monopole in a 20' X 86' lease area. The proposed use is in compliance NPRAL 1:445218.1 Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 8/25/14 02:26 PM ITEM: 11- 9 - 5 with the purpose and intent of the plan of development of New Hanover County, North Carolina Land Use Zoning Ordinance and is a compatible use in the areas where it is located. The development of an unmanned radio telecommunications facility on the Site will be consistent with New Hanover County's goals to maintain the county's character and environmental well - being. The property is zoned R -15 under the Zoning Ordinance, and wireless communications facilities are allowed in the R -15 district with a Special Use Permit. The Site meets all Ordinance technical requirements for unmanned radio telecommunications facility and is consistent with the Land Use Plan. The proposed facility will not emit any significant noise or glare and will not be lighted. The proposed facility will be in compliance with the general plan for the physical development of New Hanover County as embodied in the Ordinance. (3) General Requirement 0 — that the use will not substantially iniure the value of adjoining or abutting property or that the use is a public necessity_. American Towers LLC is sensitive to the placement of towers and selected this Site in an effort to minimize the visual impact on the surrounding area. The proposed tower will be a 199' monopole tower, and will be well hidden because of existing trees. The tower compound and ground equipment will be screened with landscaping as required by the County's ordinance. The development of an unmanned radio telecommunications facility on the Site will enhance wireless telecommunications service in this area of New Hanover County for the benefit of UNCW, local residents and businesses. UNCW is in great need of better wireless coverage at this location and American Tower, who will build this tower, already has interest from AT &T, Verizon and T- Mobile to locate on this site, which will greatly enhance mobile coverage in this area. Numerous studies, including an Impact Study prepared specifically in connection with this Application, have demonstrated that similar towers do not substantially injure the value of neighboring or nearby land. For all these reasons, American Towers LLC submits that the proposed tower will maintain or enhance the value of adjoining property. (4) General Requirement #4 — 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. The location and character of the proposed use will be in harmony with the scale, bulk, coverage, density and character of the area in which it is located. The proposed facility will not emit any substantial noise or glare. Because the proposed use is listed as a permitted special use in the zoning district in which the parcel at issue is located, there has been a legislative determination that the proposed use is in harmony with other permitted uses in the area. Furthermore, the proposed facility will be visually buffered as required by the Ordinance. In addition to the required landscape buffer, the proposed lease area and facility is surrounded by NPRAL1:445218.1 Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 8125/1402:26 PM ITEM: 11- 9 - 6 existing mature trees. As evidenced by the enclosed photo simulation, the proposed facility is only visible when looking east by northeast towards the site, and even then the visibility is minimal. Moreover, the proposed unmanned radio telecommunications facility will be in compliance with the general plan for the physical development of New Hanover County as embodied in the Ordinance and is consistent with other existing sites within the County's jurisdiction. Therefore, the proposed development will be in harmony with the area in which it is located.

MOSS LANE NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC Asper submitted plans PREPARED BY: GRAHAM HERRING COMMERCIAL REAL ESTATE GRAHAM HERRING GRI 8052 GREY OAK DRIVE, RALEIGH, NORTH CAROLINA 27615 Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 14 -1 IMPACT STATEMENT This report addresses whether the proposed use is in compliance with the purpose and intent of the plan of development of New Hanover County, N. C., Land Use and Zoning Ordinance, and is a compatible use in the area where it is to be located. In preparing this report, I inspected the site and surrounding areas in the district and reviewed the site plans for the facility provided by Tower Engineering Professionals, for an application for a Special Use Permit by American Tower Corporation. I have also consulted and reviewed with area local appraisers, developers, tax authorities and reviewed the public records in similar recent zoning cases in various jurisdictions in New Hanover County and prior applications in New Hanover County, NC and the City of Wilmington, N. C. PROPOSED FACILITY The proposed facility will consist of a One Hundred Ninety Five Foot (195.0') monopole wireless communications tower. The site will be comprised of a developed area as described in the site plans and engineering plans that were submitted. The fencing surrounding the site will be a chain link fence at least eight (8.0') feet in height, around the twenty foot by eighty six foot compound (20.0' by 86.0'); located in the developed lease area as described in the plans that were submitted. There will be a six (6) inch thick gravel weed barrier inside the fenced area and extending one (1) foot outside the fenced area. Landscaping will meet or exceed the Ordinance requirements for this project. The area is zoned mostly R -15. The parent tract is shown in the County Records as Tax Parcel Number: R07600 -003- 017 -000. Graham A Herritrg Real Estate Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 14 - 2 Impact Statement October 6, 2015 Page 2 BACKGROUND In general we have found that the factors that primarily affect property values are use, zoning, topography, and market demand. As the factors change, so do the current market value and development potential of any parcel of real estate. While the value of a parcel of real property may be affected by the use of adjoining or surrounding property, that use must be significant in its intrusiveness or lack of compatibility in order to override the primary factors that affect property values. Uses which generate significant traffic, noise, odor, or dangerous conditions are generally the types of uses which are so intrusive as to override the normal factors affecting property values, and result in a material adverse impact on surrounding properties. For example, hog farms, rock quarries, paper mills, manufacturing plants, adult entertainment establishments, and similar uses, are generally believed to have a negative impact on the value of surrounding properties. In addition, development of property in a manner, which is significantly incompatible with existing or planned use of surrounding property, can result in a negative impact on property immediately adjacent to the incompatible use. Our examination of the effects of the existing transmission tower and broadcast tower sites on surrounding properties, and our examination of other studies on this subject and available data, indicates that, in general, these type towers are not the type of use, which is so intrusive as to have an inherently negative impact on surrounding properties so long as the set backs are sufficient as to not cause an adjoining property to not be able to be used or developed for its highest and best use under the jurisdictions zoning restrictions. Graham A Herring Real Estate 2 Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 14 - 3 tmpact Statement October 6, 2015 Page 3 SUMMARY My personal inspection of the site and surrounding areas, and public records revealed the following: 1. Located immediately to the north of the proposed site and parent tract is heavily wooded land of the UNCW Marine Sciences Campus and further north a single family residential development along Captains Lane. 2. Located immediately to the west of the proposed site is the heavily wooded and undeveloped campus lands along Marvin K. Moss Lane out to Masonboro Loop Road where there are single family homes, and developments that will have very limited view of the proposed tower facility. 3. Located to the south of the proposed site are heavily wooded lands, scattered single family homes, and a proposed single family /recreational development that will have access east to the Inland Waterway. 4. Located east of the proposed site is the UNCW Marine Sciences Campus and its facilities with boat and marine equipment. S. That the visibility of the facility will be very limited along Masonboro Loop Road at ground level due to the existing vegetation, placement and separation from the existing developed and uses around the parent tract. (As demonstrated in the Photo Simulation and Annotated Aerial and Ground Map Report). The areas outside fenced compound will be left undisturbed in order to maintain the existing wooded areas and vegetation near the site. In summary, my personal inspection of this proposed site and other tower locations in North Carolina, in the jurisdictions of Cumberland, Robeson, Bladen, Onslow, Moore, Sampson, Cities of Fayetteville, Raleigh, Wilmington and many others, my personal Expert Witness Testimony in over one thousand seven hundred (1,700) zoning hearings for the record in these and many other jurisdictions across the southeast, my review of industry data regarding all types of wireless transmission towers, indicates that, in general, wireless telecommunication tower facilities do not have a inherently deleterious affect on surrounding properties. Our review of the Facility to be constructed at the Site, and personal inspection of the Site and surrounding area, indicate that the planned facility Graham B. Herring Real Estate 3 Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 14 - 4 Impact Statement October 6, 2015 Page 4 is generally compatible with the area's existing and proposed uses, and developed as proposed it will have no substantial negative impact on existing or planned development of the surrounding properties. Moreover, this Telecommunications Facility, built as planned, will have no detrimental or injurious effect on the property values of the surrounding neighborhood or other improved or unimproved properties in the general vicinity. Finally, the nature of this location, with its separation from the residential arterials located to the north of the proposed site, the unimproved areas and mixed uses nearby, heavily wooded areas, is such that the proposed development will not create any negative aesthetic effects on scenic roadways or other unique natural features. DISCLAIMER This document is not to be construed as an appraisal of real property, It is an assessment of empirical data and written expression of opinion of impact of this particular planned project, based on the experience of the author of this document. This document is not to be reproduced in whole or in part; disseminated to the public, nor is it to be used for any purpose other than the reason intended No opinions of value or opinions of the correctness or accuracy of the engineering designs or plans submitted for this project are expresseg implied or intended by the author.

In addition, AT &T Mobility has been requested to address other RF related topics such as transmitter operation and maximum permissible output power levels. The remainder of this report will address all RF related items requested by New Hanover County ZoninglPIanning for proposed site 478- 112. Transmitter Operation AT &T Mobility owns the C LTE Bands and B PCS Band PCS licenses in New Hanover County. The transmitters being used on the proposed site are authorized to operate in the 740 -746 and 1950 -1965 Megahertz (MHz) frequency range. The Ericsson Node B base station transmitters AT &T Mobility utilizes have a maximum output level of 60 watts. AT &T Mobility utilizes the GSM, LTE and UMTS digital technology. As a result our transmitters utilize Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying (GMSK), 16 -State Quadrature Amplitude (16QAM), 64 -State Quadrature Amplitude (64 QAM) and Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation. Precision filters limit unwanted and spurious emissions to levels below the FCC specification. The signals being transmitted will not interfere with the operation of commercial radio, cellular radio, television, telephone or other FCC approved communication equipment. For our proposed site 478 -112, GSM technology will not be deployed. Maximum Permissible Output Power The maximum permissible output power for 1900 band per sector is 1640 Watts of effective radiated power (ERP) from the antennas in New Hanover County. The proposed site 478 -112 is only transmitting 506 total watts ERP. The maximum permissible output power for 700 band per sector is 1000 Watts of effective radiated power (FRP) from the antennas in New Hanover County. The proposed site 478 -112 is only transmitting 143 total watts ERP. RF Exposure (VIER levels) The FCC states in 47 CFR 1. 13 10 that the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) level from non - ionizing electromagnetic radiation (NIER) to the general population at cellular and PCS frequencies is 1.0 milliwatt per centimeter squared (mWfcml). MPE is a measure of the RF power density at or below which there are no potential harmful effects from the exposure_ Power density calculations are based on guidelines given by the ANSI Standard C95.1 -1992 and are based on a worst case scenario. For analysis purposes, worst case conditions were chosen for all output power levels based on the deployment of LTE and UMTS technologies. The site is being deployed initially with 6 transmitters. For analysis purposes, 15 transmitters were used. A summary of the results of the power density calculations for site 478 -112 is listed below in Table 1 and Table 2.

Moreover, the average energy expected near ground level is less than 1% of the MPE level. This level does not exceed the MPE limit set by the Federal Communications Commission or the American National Standards Institute. Based upon the ANSI/FCC standard and the predicted levels of electromagnetic energy emitted by site 478 -112, this installation will be of no safety concern to the general public.

Structure Class 11, Exposure Category C; Topographic Category: 1. It is our understanding that the design of the referenced pole may require consideration of a contained fall radius in the event a catastrophic wind speed were to result in a failure. Although the pole is not designed to fail, stronger sections than required by analysis are provided in the lower portion of the pole. This would result in an increased safety factor in the lower sections. This design would enable the pole to fail through a combination of bending and buckling in the upper portion of the pole should a catastrophic wind loading occur. Failure in this manner would result in the upper portion of the pole folding over the lower portion resulting in a fall radius equal to 35 feet. The failure mode would theoretically be a local buckling failure involving a crippling of the pole on one side of the pole as opposed to the pole shearing off or completely breaking off and hitting the ground. Please contact us at your convenience should you have further questions concerning the safety of pole structures or other aspects of pole design. Sincerely, Habib Azouri PE Engineering Manager.

Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 11- 19 - 10 NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION MEETING DATE: December 1, 2014 REGULAR DEPARTMENT: Planning PRESENTER(S): Ben Andrea, Current Planning & Zoning Supervisor (Planning Board Rep: Donna Girardot) CONTACT(S): Ben Andrea; and Chris O'Keefe, Planning /Inspections Director SUBJECT: Public Hearing Rezoning Request (Z -933M, 11/14) - Request by Design Solutions on Behalf of AMJB Properties, LLC to Rezone a 6.89 -Acre Parcel from B -2 Conditional Zoning District to B -2 Conditional Zoning District to Develop a Self- Storage and Recreational Vehicle and Boat Trailer Storage Facility at 5112 Carolina Beach Road BRIEF SUMMARY: The request is for a major modification of a 6.89 -acre parcel that is a CZD B -2 Conditional Zoning District to develop a self- storage and recreational vehicle and boat trailer storage facility at 5112 Carolina Beach Road. A major modifications is treated procedurally the same as a new conditional rezoning. The subject property is located along the southwest side of the 5100 block of Carolina Beach Road, approximately 0. 65 mile south of the intersection of Carolina Beach Road and South College Road, in an area known as Monkey Junction. The property is currently zoned CZD B -2, Highway Business Conditional Zoning District as a result of a rezoning from R -15 that was approved on July 21, 2014. This conditional rezoning allowed for expansion of the existing self - storage business onto the subject property. The approval included a site plan consisting of three 21,000 sq. ft. climate- controlled storage buildings, one covered boat trailer and recreational vehicle storage area, a building for specialty retail, and related landscaping, drives, and parking areas. The new proposal eliminates two 21,000 sq. ft. climate controlled self - storage buildings and a 10,000 sq. ft. specialty retail area and replaces them with a 20,550 sq. ft. climate controlled storage building, two three - sided, covered recreational vehicle and boat trailer storage areas and one enclosed boat storage area. With the current proposal, internal traffic circulation is also reconfigured and a driveway to Carolina Beach Road is eliminated. The proposal's projected peak hour trip generation does not warrant a full Traffic Impact Analysis; revised traffic figures have been provided by the applicant and project a decrease in peak hour trips with the current proposal. Zoning of the land in the vicinity consists of a mixture of B -2, CZD (B -2), R -15, R -10, and multifamily zoning (Willoughby Park). Existing land uses in the area consist of a modular home park to the southeast of the site, residential to the south, and a variety of commercial uses around the Monkey Junction area. Directly adjacent to the site is Monkey Junction Self Storage; the rezoning request would expand this existing business onto the subject site. At their November 6, 2014 meeting, the Planning Board voted 6 -0 to recommend approval of the rezoning request. No one from the public spoke either in favor of or opposed to the proposal. The subject property is classified as Urban and Conservation Area according to the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 12 STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT: Intelligent Growth and Economic Development • Attract and retain new and expanding businesses • Implement plans for land use, economic development, infrastructure and environmental programs • Understand and act on citizen needs RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Staff recommends the following motion: Motion to approve the request, as the Board of Commissioners finds that this request for a zoning map amendment of 6.89 acres from CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business, to CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business 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 along a major thoroughfare and in an area of focused urbanization of the county, and best suited for non - residential uses. The rezoning proposal supports Policy 4.3 of the CAMA Land Use Plan by providing commercial services near the markets that they serve while not diminishing the quality of life of nearby residential uses. 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.

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 along a major thoroughfare and in an area of focused urbanization of the county, and best suited for non - residential uses. The rezoning proposal supports Policy 4.3 of the CAMA Land Use Plan by providing commercial services near the markets that they serve while not diminishing the quality of life of nearby residential uses. 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to rezone 6.89 acres from CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business, to CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business because the character of the area is urbanized and many similar and compatible uses exist adjacent to and nearby the subject site. EXISTING CONDITIONS: Existing Zoning and Land Uses The subject property includes approximately 6.89 acres of a 10.1 acre tract located along the southwest side of the 5100 block of Carolina Beach Road, approximately 0.65 mile south of the intersection of Carolina Beach Road and South College Road, known as Monkey Junction. The property is currently zoned CZD B -2, Highway Business Conditional Zoning District as a result of a rezoning from R -15 that was approved on July 21, 1014. This conditional rezoning allowed for expansion of the existing self- storage business onto the subject property. The approval included a site plan consisting of three 21,000 sq. ft. climate - controlled storage buildings, one covered boat trailer and recreational vehicle storage area, a building for specialty retail, and related landscaping, drives, and parking areas. Z -933M, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 12- 3 - 1 Pagel of S The zoning in the vicinity consists of a mixture of B -2, CZD (B -2), R -15, R -10, and multifamily zoning (Willoughby Park). Existing land uses in the area consist of a modular home park to the southeast of the site, residential to the south, and a variety of commercial uses around the Monkey Junction area. Directly adjacent to the site is Monkey Junction Self Storage; the rezoning request would expand this existing business onto the subject site. Existing Site Conditions The site features 200' of direct frontage along Carolina Beach Road. The site is currently undeveloped except for a residential structure near the frontage along Carolina Beach Road, and a small accessory building to the rear of the home. Some areas of wetlands exist on the southwestern portion of the parcel, but are not in the subject rezoning area nor will they be subject to direct impact due to the development. Motts Creek transverses the southwestern portion of the property, outside the area subject to the rezoning request and proposed development. Some areas of the parcel contain AE and AE Floodway Special Flood Hazard Areas; however, development encroachment in these areas would be limited to a portion of the drive terminus and the stormwater management features. No CAMA Areas of Environmental Concern exist within the subject rezoning or development areas. Traffic and Transportation Wilmington Metropolitan Planning Organization Staff conducted a traffic count in August 2013 in the vicinity of the project at the intersection of Carolina Beach Road and just north of Antionette Drive. The count yielded an average daily trip count (ADT) of 30,262. This figure represents an "F" Level of Service (LOS) meaning that traffic counts are exceeding the design capacity of the road, which is listed at 29,300, and a Volume to Capacity Ratio of 1.03. Community Services Water and Sewer: The property is within the Urban Services boundary and is within the CFPUA service area. However, the proposed use should have minimal impact on water and sewer demand. Fire Protection: The property is served by New Hanover County Fire Services and located in the New Hanover County South Fire District. Schools: The property is located within the school districts for Williamson Elementary, Myrtle Grove Middle, and Ashley High schools. The proposed use should have minimal impact on schools. 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 a major modification of the conditional zoning of a 6.89 acre parcel that is a CZD B -2, Highway Business Conditional Zoning District to develop a self- storage and recreational vehicle Z -933M, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 12- 3 - 2 Page 2 of S and boat trailer storage facility at 5112 Carolina Beach Road. The new proposal changes the adopted conditional zoning district by eliminating two 21,000sf climate controlled self- storage buildings and a 10,000sf specialty retail area and replacing them with a 20,550sf climate controlled storage building, two three - sided, covered recreational vehicle and boat trailer storage areas and one enclosed boat storage area. With the current proposal, internal traffic circulation is also reconfigured and a driveway to Carolina Beach Road is eliminated. STAFF POSITION: Zoning Ordinance Considerations The Ordinance states that the purpose of the B -2 Highway Business district is to provide for the proper grouping and development of roadside business uses which will best accommodate the needs of the motoring public and businesses demanding high volume traffic. Principal means of ingress and egress should be along collector roads, minor arterials, and /or major arterials as designated on the County's Thoroughfare Classification Plan. Finally, B -2 districts shall be a minimum of five (5) acres in area. Staff opines the proposal is consistent with the purpose and intent of the B -2 zoning district, as well as the district acreage requirements. The New Hanover County Zoning Ordinance permits both self- storage facilities and recreational vehicle and RV /boat trailer storage facilities within the B -2 zoning district. Procedurally, the Zoning Ordinance treats major modifications to conditional zoning districts the same as a new conditional rezoning. Traffic A Traffic Impact Worksheet has been submitted indicating that peak hour trips resulting from the proposed use (18 peak AM hour trips and 32 peak PM hour trips) are below the threshold that would require a Traffic Impact Analysis. Additionally, the traffic projections for the revised proposal offer a reduction in peak hour trips from the previously approved proposal through the elimination of the 10,000sf specialty retail area. Further, the previous proposal included a new driveway onto Carolina Beach Road, which is also eliminated with the current proposal. Access will be provided from Archmil Way, which directly connects to Carolina Beach Road. 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. Landscaping and Buffering Landscaping and buffering shall be required per Zoning Ordinance regulations, which include the 20' wide buffer areas along the perimeter as shown on the site plan, as well as streetscaping along Carolina Beach Road. The proposed landscaping, buffering, and parking meet the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Land Use Plan Considerations The majority of the subject area is classified as Urban by the 2006 CAMA Plan. The purpose of this land use classification is to provide for continued intensive development and redevelopment of existing Z -933M, (11/14) Board of Commissioners - December 1, 2014 ITEM: 12- 3 - 3 Page 3 of 5 urban areas. Some of the area at the "rear" of the site is classified as Conservation Area; however, the project should have minimal to no direct impact to the areas classified as Conservation. In summary, the proposal is consistent with the Urban 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 9, 2014 in accordance with the requirements for such a request. No members of the public attended the meeting, and no changes to the proposal were made as a result of the community meeting. Staff recommends the approval of the proposal as requested. Although considered a major modification to the approved Z -933 conditional zoning district, Staff feels that the revised proposal remains consistent with the previous rezoning and the surrounding community. 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. Specifically, the location of the subject property is very close to a large heavy commercial node, supporting Policy 4.3 of the CAMA Land Use Plan: Maximize effectiveness of commercial uses by assuring that land is available for commercial uses within close proximity to the markets they serve and by ensuring that such commercial uses do not diminish the quality of life in nearby residential areas. The southwest area of the subject parcel contains both wetlands and flood hazard areas, both of which are mostly avoided with the current proposal. The CAMA Land Use Plan offers guidance through Policy 3.9 to discourage development within the flood hazard areas for hazard mitigation: Carefully control development activities within the 100 -year floodplain (1% annual chance floodplain) according to density and impervious surface limits to protect the public safety, reduce the risk of property damage, and provide for the long -term protection and management of these environmentally significant resources. The petitioner's proposal offers not only hazard mitigation but would create an undeveloped buffer area between the existing and proposed development and Motts Creek, a tributary draining to the Cape Fear River. Policy 3.3 of the CAMA Land Use Plan offers guidance to minimize and offset the effects of development on the river: Protect the Cape Fear River from the cumulative impacts of development by carefully reviewing development plans and enforcing measures to eliminate or mitigate potential impacts from runoff or discharge of sediment, nutrients, and other pollutants to the river.

Staff - Suggested Motion: Motion to approve the request, as the Board of Commissioners finds that this request for a zoning map amendment of 6.89 acres from CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business, to CZD B -2, Conditional Zoning District Highway Business 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 along a major thoroughfare and in an area of focused urbanization of the county, and best suited for non - residential uses. The rezoning proposal supports Policy 4.3 of the CAMA Land Use Plan by providing commercial services near the markets that they serve while not diminishing the quality of life of nearby residential uses. 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.

Planning & Zoning can advise you regarding appeal procedures. Uses and Development Requirements: Within a Conditional District, the Permit may specify additional conditions and requirements which represent greater restrictions on development and use of the tract than the corresponding General Use District regulations, or other limitations on land which may be regulated by state law or local ordinance. Such conditions and requirements shall not specify ownership status, race, religion, character or other exclusionary characteristic of occupant, shall be objective, specific and detailed to the extent necessary to accomplish their purpose, and shall relate rationally to making the Permit compatible with the New Hanover County Land Use Plan, and other pertinent requirements of the Zoning Ordinance, and to securing the public health, safety, morals, and welfare. WHAT YOU MUST ESTABLISH FOR A CHANGE OF ZONING Conditional District Zoning is established to address situations where a particular land use would be consistent with the New Hanover County Land Use Plan and the objectives of this ordinance and where only a specific use or uses is proposed for the project. You must explain in the space below how your request satisfies each of the following requirements: (attach additional sheets if necessary) 1. How would the requested change be consistent with the County's Policies for Growth and Development? Policies for growth encourage continued efforts to attract and retain businesses. The proposal is essentially to expand an existing successful business with a small portion of specialty retail area and additional storage space. The business is located on a busy traffic corridor. 2. How would the requested zone change be consistent with the property's classification on the Land Classification Map? The site is located in an "Urban" CAMA land classification. These areas are intended for intensive urban development. They are appropriate for medium- density uses when direct access can be provided to major traffic corridors and public services are available. 3. What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or bow is the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning? Carolina Beach Road continues to develop with commercial and higher - density uses and the Monkey Junction intersection has become a major commercial node in the County, serving the many residential neighborhoods one - tier - removed from the busy highway thoroughfares. Smaller lots and smaller homes have led to storage facilities being successful because of an established need. 4. List proposed conditions and restrictions that would mitigate the impacts of the proposed use(s). Zoning Ordinance requirements, including buffering and directional light control, will be applied. Landscape requirements addressing the streetscape and interior aesthetics will also serve to mitigate impacts on adjacent properties. Permits for driveway access, stormwater management, etc. will be required before actual development, assuring compliance to all rules and regulations.

A copy of the site plan is attached, labelled "Old Plan." The developers have researched market trends and determined that they need to revise their business model somewhat. In response to that, minor changes have been made to the site plan, also attached and labelled "New Plan," as follows: • The specialty retail building and associated parking at the Carolina Beach Road frontage has been eliminated, and replaced by climate - controlled storage. • The rear two (2) previously proposed climate- control storage buildings have been replaced by a structure designed for boat trailer and RV covered storage. Positive justifications to these changes include: • The driveway onto Carolina Beach Road has been eliminated. • The retail use would have had a greater trip generation than the storage use, thereby reducing overall traffic volume on Carolina Beach Road. • The large paved turnaround at the rear of the site has been eliminated. Vehicle circulation will be directional around the rear building. As such, the coverage area has been reduced — further away from the special flood hazard area. • The total impervious surfaces area remains the same as on the previously approved plan. • No other changes to the conditions of approval are proposed. The architecture, landscaping and overall aesthetics of the existing business will be duplicated in the expansion. The County has determined that these changes represent enough of a modification to require re- approval of the Conditional Zoning District by the Board of Commissioners. That process requires that the developer hold another meeting for all property owners within a 500 -foot perimeter of the tract boundary, and any and all other interested parties. This provides neighbors with an opportunity for explanation of the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning project improvements, benefits and impacts. This meeting is going to be held at the Monkey Junction Storage office, 5044 Carolina Beach Road, at 5:30 p.m., Wednesday, October 8th. If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me at telephone # 620 -2374, or email cwolf @lobodemar.biz with comments and /or questions. We appreciate your interest in the project and look forward to continue being a good neighbor and an asset to the community. P.D.
