RE: Z-959 – Conditional Zoning District – Middle Sound Loop Performance Residential
Mr. Weeks & Ms. Engebretson,
At their July 7, 2016 meeting, the Planning Board voted (5-0) to approve your application to rezone
17.42 acres of land located at the 2400 block of Middle Sound Loop Road from R-20S, Residential
District, to (CZD) R-20, Conditional Residential District, in order to develop a 32 lot performance
residential development. The following conditions were placed on the district:
1. Duplex, multi-family, and mobile home housing shall be prohibited.
2. Impervious coverage shall not exceed 30% of the site.
3. In addition to meeting the county and state stormwater requirements, the development shall
incorporate Low Impact Development (LID) techniques as described in the City of
Wilmington/New Hanover County LID Guidance Manual, and qualify as a LID project as
determined by the County’s Technical Review Committee (TRC).
4. Existing vegetation located within the proposed open space areas shall be preserved to the
maximum extent practicable, and only be removed in order to install necessary infrastructure
needed to comply with applicable county and state regulations.
5. A 20 foot access easement shall be dedicated to the County along Middle Sound Loop Road
for the purpose of installing a future pedestrian facility.
The application is tentatively scheduled to be heard by the Board of Commissioners at their regularly
scheduled meeting on August 1st.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me at (910) 798-7444 or
bschuler@nhcgov.com.
