REPORT OF COMMUNITY MEETING REQUIRED BY NEW HANOVER COUNTY ZONING ORIDINANCE
FOR CONDITIONAL DISTRICT REZONINGS
Location: 3013 & 3079 Blue Clay Road
Proposed Zoning: Conditional Zoning District R-10 / Rachel’s Place Subdivision
The undersigned hereby certifies that written notice of a community meeting on the above zoning
application was given to the adjacent property owners set forth on the attached list by first class
mail on __October 21, 2015_______, and emailed to all parties registered on the County’s
“Sunshine List” on October 22, 2015 . A copy of the written notice is also attached.
The meeting was held at the following time and place: Thursday, October 29, 2015;
6:00 p.m.; Wrightsboro Fire Station, 3515 N. Kerr Ave., Wilmington
The persons in attendance at the meeting were: Reference Attached Sign-in List
The following issues were discussed at the meeting:
** A project introduction was given with an overview of Conditional Zoning Districts and of the
site layout.
** Questions about drainage & stormwater management were answered by a professional
engineer.
** The primary concerns were over traffic circulation & trip generation. The residents of
Wrightsboro Acres believe that this development will add to issues already experienced on
Long Leaf Dr. due to the elementary school traffic. The results of the Traffic Impact Analysis
were shared. The County’s regulations for mandatory inter-connectivity were stated.
Developer agreed to discuss the possibility of no access to Holland Dr. with the County
planners.
As a result of the meeting, the following changes were made to the rezoning petition: A street
intersection with Holland Dr. would appear to be a requirement of the Subdivision Regulations
and for improvement of emergency services provision, so that access was not removed. An
additional access to Blue Clay Road was also not added. The inter-connection to the TF
Holdings property , to the South, was relocated for more central access.

Transmittal
October 21, 2015
To: Adjacent Property Owners
From: Cindee Wolf
Re: Rachel’s Place – A Performance Residential Development
The property owner is interested in developing a 154-lot residential subdivision on lands
within the proximity of your property. This proposal would require a Conditional Zoning
District approval from New Hanover County.
A Conditional Zoning District allows particular uses to be established only in accordance
with specific standards and conditions pertaining to each individual development project.
Essentially, this means that only that use, structures and layout of an approved proposal can
be developed. A plan of the project layout is enclosed.
The County requires that the developer hold a meeting for all property owners within 500
feet 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.
A meeting will be held on Thursday, October 29th, at the Wrightsboro Fire Station, 3515 N.
Kerr Avenue, 6:00 - 7:00 p.m. 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 being a good neighbor and
an asset to the community.

Discussion of Results
The following section discusses 2018 level of service for each intersection.
Blue Clay Road at North Kerr Avenue
This signalized intersection currently operates at LOS B during the AM and PM peaks.
In 2016 future no build conditions and build conditions, the level of service is expected
to remain the same. No improvements are recommended.
Blue Clay Road at Site Access 1
In 2018 with site traffic, this intersection is expected to operate at LOS B in the AM and
PM peaks. It is recommended to provide 100 feet of storage with appropriate taper for a
northbound left turn lane on Blue Clay Road to accommodate vehicles entering the
development.
Holland Drive at Site Access 2
In 2018 with site traffic, this intersection is expected to operate at LOS A in the AM and
PM peaks. No improvements are recommended.

Summary and Conclusion
The proposed Rachel’s Place Subdivision is located off of Blue Clay Road in
Wrightsboro, New Hanover County, North Carolina. As currently planned, this
development will consist of 154 single family detached homes. Two accesses to the
development will be provided by one on Blue Clay Road and one on Holland Drive.
Based on trip generation rates and equations published in Trip Generation (Institute of
Transportation Engineers, 9th Edition), this development has a trip generation potential
of 117 net trips in the AM peak and 155 net trips in the PM peak.
Based on the analysis all study intersections are expected to operate at LOS B or better
during the AM and PM peaks. It is recommended to provide a northbound left turn lane
at Blue Clay Road and Site Access 1 of 100 feet storage with appropriate taper to
accommodate the vehicles entering the development.
In conclusion, this study has reviewed the impacts of both background traffic and this
development traffic, and has determined that with the recommended improvements in
place, there will be adequate capacity to accommodate future traffic. The final design of
these improvements will need to be coordinated during the site plan approval process.
Please note that all accesses to the site are required to be constructed to NCDOT
standards.

9/15/15 15-241 Rachel’s Place Subdivision – Transportation Impact Analysis 9
3.0 Approved Developments and Committed Improvements
3.1 Approved Developments
Approved developments are developments that have been recently approved in the
area, but not yet constructed. Per the WMPO staff, there are two developments seeking
approval in the vicinity of the project that will be incorporated into the analysis.
River Bluffs is a multi-development consisting of single family homes, condominiums,
small retirement community and a country store located off of Chair Road whose TIA
was completed by Ramey Kemp & Associates in 2008. This development is estimated
to generate 4,555 daily site trips (251 trips in the AM peak and 393 trips in the PM
peak).
Trasco Distribution Center is a 205,000 square foot building located on North Kerr
Avenue between Blue Clay Road and North Kerr Avenue whose TIA was completed by
Ramey Kemp & Associates in 2014. This development is estimated to generate 1,776
daily site trips (360 trips in the AM peak and 340 trips in the PM peak).
Riverside Development is a multi-family consisting of 165 single family detached homes
and 72 apartments located off of North Kerr Avenue whose TIA was completed by
DAVENPORT in May 2015. This development was analyzed for two (2) phases. Phase 1 (2016) will consist of 100 single family homes. Full Build (2019) will consist of 165
single family homes and 72 apartments. Since Riverside Development will be phase
constructed before and after the Rachel’s Place Subdivision, the Phase 1 trips were
used in the analysis. The Phase 1 development is estimated to generate 1,050 daily site
trips (80 trips in the AM peak and 105 trips in the PM peak).
The site trips for each development were incorporated into all future build conditions.
More information can be found in the Supporting Documents section of the Appendix.
3.2 Committed Improvements
Committed Improvements are improvements that are planned by NCDOT or a
developer in the area, but not yet constructed. Per WMPO, there are recommended
committed improvements in the study area due to the two approved developments.
These improvements are at the intersection of Castle Hayne Road and North Kerr
Avenue, which is outside of the study area.
9/15/15 15-241 Rachel’s Place Subdivision – Transportation Impact Analysis 10
4.0 Methodology
4.1 Base Assumptions and Standards
In general, the analysis for this project was conducted utilizing commonly accepted
NCDOT standards. The following table contains a summary of the base assumptions:
Table 4.1 - Assumptions
Peak Hour Factor 0.90
Background Traffic Annual Growth Rate 1.0% per year for all roadways
Analysis Software Synchro/SimTraffic Version 8.0
Base Signal Timing/Phasing NCDOT
Lane widths 12-feet unless measured otherwise
Truck percentages 2%
4.2 Trip Generation
Trips for this development were projecting using TripGen 2013 software, based on the
9th edition of ITE Trip Generation Manual. Table 4.2 presents the results.

4.3 Trip Distribution
Site trips for this proposed development were distributed based on the existing traffic
patterns and engineering judgment. The trip distribution model is shown in Figure 5, and
the directional distributions for site trips are as follows:
• 40% to and from the south on Blue Clay Road
• 20% to and from the east on North Kerr Avenue
• 15% to and from the north on Blue Clay Road
• 15% to and from the west on Holland Drive
• 10% to and from the west on North Kerr Avenue
4.4 2018 Future No Build Traffic
The 2018 future no build traffic volumes were computed by applying a 1.0%
compounded annual growth rate to the 2015 existing traffic volumes and adding
approved development trips. Figure 6 shows 2018 future no build traffic volumes for AM
and PM peaks.
4.5 2018 Build Total Traffic
The 2018 build-out traffic volume was obtained by summing the 2018 future no build
volumes and site trips due to the proposed development. Site trips are shown in Figure
7. The 2018 future build volumes are shown for AM and PM peaks in Figure 8. More
information can be found in the Traffic Volume Data section of the appendix.

9/15/15 15-241 Rachel’s Place Subdivision – Transportation Impact Analysis 16
5.0 Capacity Analysis
5.1 Level of Service Evaluation Criteria
The Transportation Research Board’s Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) utilizes a term
“level of service” to measure how traffic operates in intersections and on roadway
segments. There are currently six levels of service ranging from A to F. Level of
service “A” represents the best conditions and Level of Service “F” represents the worst.
Synchro Traffic Modeling software was used to determine the level of service for studied
intersections. Note for unsignalized intersection analysis, the level of service noted is
for the worst approach of the intersection. This is typically the left turn movement for
the side street approach, due to the number of opposing movements. All worksheet
reports from the analyses can be found in the Appendix.
Table 5.1 – Highway Capacity Manual
Levels of Service and Control Delay Criteria
Signalized Intersection Unsignalized Intersection
Level of Service Control Delay Per
vehicle (sec) Level of Service Delay Range
(sec)
A ≤ 10 A ≤ 10
B > 10 and ≤ 20 B > 10 and ≤ 15
C > 20 and ≤ 35 C > 15 and ≤ 25
D > 35 and ≤ 55 D > 25 and ≤ 35
E > 55 and ≤ 80 E > 35 and ≤ 50
F > 80 F > 50

5.2 Discussion of Results
The following section discusses 2018 level of service for each intersection.
Blue Clay Road at North Kerr Avenue
This signalized intersection currently operates at LOS B during the AM and PM peaks.
In 2016 future no build conditions and build conditions, the level of service is expected
to remain the same. No improvements are recommended.
Blue Clay Road at Site Access 1
In 2018 with site traffic, this intersection is expected to operate at LOS B in the AM and
PM peaks. It is recommended to provide 100 feet of storage with appropriate taper for a
northbound left turn lane on Blue Clay Road to accommodate vehicles entering the
development.
Holland Drive at Site Access 2
In 2018 with site traffic, this intersection is expected to operate at LOS A in the AM and
PM peaks. No improvements are recommended.
5.3 Level of Service Summary

9/15/15 15-241 Rachel’s Place Subdivision – Transportation Impact Analysis 19
6.0 Summary and Conclusion
The proposed Rachel’s Place Subdivision is located off of Blue Clay Road in
Wrightsboro, New Hanover County, North Carolina. As currently planned, this
development will consist of 154 single family detached homes. Two accesses to the
development will be provided by one on Blue Clay Road and one on Holland Drive.
Based on trip generation rates and equations published in Trip Generation (Institute of
Transportation Engineers, 9th Edition), this development has a trip generation potential
of 117 net trips in the AM peak and 155 net trips in the PM peak.
Based on the analysis all study intersections are expected to operate at LOS B or better
during the AM and PM peaks. It is recommended to provide a northbound left turn lane
at Blue Clay Road and Site Access 1 of 100 feet storage with appropriate taper to
accommodate the vehicles entering the development.
In conclusion, this study has reviewed the impacts of both background traffic and this
development traffic, and has determined that with the recommended improvements in
place, there will be adequate capacity to accommodate future traffic. The final design of
these improvements will need to be coordinated during the site plan approval process.
Please note that all accesses to the site are required to be constructed to NCDOT
standards.
