Consistent with the purposes and intent of the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan because the “Transition” classification allows for intensive development on lands that have been provided with Urban Services. The property is located on an arterial street and is in close proximity to public water and sewer services. The proposal is also consistent with the “Conservation” classification because impervious surfaces will be limited within the areas of the property classified as “Conservation”, and because no structures or septic systems will be constructed within those same “Conservation” areas. 2. Reasonable and in the public interest because it provides increased density in areas best suited for development and because it provides for alternative modes of transportation by installing a multi- use path in accordance with the Wilmington/New Hanover County Comprehensive Greenway Plan. 8.
