The Future Land Use Map is not legally binding like the New Hanover County Zoning Map. It is intended to be a general representation of the 25 year vision for New Hanover County, created by the citizens who were involved with Plan NHC, and will be used to guide future development decisions.

These areas serve as employment and
production hubs, predominantly composed of
light and heavy industrial uses, though office
and complementary commercial uses are also
allowed. Densities are dependent in part
on the type of industry; some industrial uses
will likely be one story with large setbacks
and ample room for trucks and other large
vehicles. Office uses can be multi-story and
nearer the street, while office buildings can
be two or three stories and closer to the
street. Commerce Zones, unlike Employment
Centers, do not allow residential uses.
Commerce Zones require arterial or major
collector road access connecting them to
areas outside their boundaries.

These areas serve as employment and

uses predominating. Densities are dependent
in part on the type of industries located here;
office uses can be multi-story and nearer the
street, while light industrial uses will likely be
one story with large setbacks and ample room
for trucks and other large vehicles. Employment
Centers can also include residential, civic,
and recreational uses, but should be clearly
delineated from rural and conservation areas.
Commercial uses designed to serve the needs
of the employment center are appropriate.
Employment Centers require arterial or major
collector road access connecting them to areas
outside their boundaries.

This placetype provides opportunity for lower-
density housing and associated civic and
commercial services. Housing is typically single-
family or duplexes, with setbacks on all sides.
Block sizes are large, at ¼ to ½ mile wide.
Commercial uses should be limited to office and
retail spaces in carefully located areas where
neighborhood character will be enhanced,
while recreation and school facilities are
encouraged throughout. Access to areas outside
these residential areas is provided by arterial
roadways, but still allowing for interconnection
between other placetypes. However, limiting
cul-de-sacs is encouraged to promote better
internal circulation and minimizing high-volume
traffic roads within the area. Flooding hazard
avoidance should be taken into consideration
when abutting coastal areas.

This placetype provides access to a mix of
residential, office, and retail uses at higher
densities. Multi-family residential uses are
preferred, though higher-density single family
developments will not be prohibited. Mixed
uses are encouraged in the same footprint in a
vertical pattern, but they can also be adjacent,
or separated by lower traffic local and collector
roads in a horizontal pattern. This placetype
can include big box retail that has included
appropriate urban design features. These areas
place an emphasis on multimodalism through the
requirement of sidewalks on all non-local streets,
crosswalks at all intersections, dedicated bicycle
lanes or wide outside lanes, and bus access.
Types of uses include office, retail, mixed use,
small recreation, single-family and multi-family
residential.

This placetype focuses on small-scale, compact,
mixed use development patterns that serve
multimodal travel and act as an attractor
for county residents and visitors. These areas
share several qualities with higher-intensity
mixed use, including a combination of retail
with office and housing above, wider sidewalks
and an emphasis on streetscaping. However,
these centers are generally small, no morethan a few square blocks. Civic uses,particularly recreation and public gatheringplaces are encouraged here. Lower denisitysingle family development may be acceptablewhen limitations to mixed use development exists.Ideally, large-scale, lower density commercialand industrial developments are prohibited.

These are rural areas where new development
occurs in a manner consistent with existing
rural character while also preserving the
economic viability of the land. Residential uses
are the predominant, but not exclusive, use.
Agricultural and rural recreational uses are
intermixed with large-lot residential areas that
range from 1 to 40 acres. Clustering of homes
in smaller lots can provide for conservation of
other land while still providing opportunities
for residential and agricultural growth.
Rural areas have minimal transportation
infrastructure requirements; rural collector and
arterial roads are sufficient.

Typical Zoning Categories
DEFINITION
CONSERVATION
Conservation places cover areas of natural open
space and are intended to protect the natural
environment, water quality, and wildlife habitats.
They serve the public through environmental edu-
cation, low-impact recreation and in their natural
beauty. Protection may also extend to important
cultural or archaeological resources and to areas
where hazards are known to exist. Conservation
areas and tools may apply to land that also falls
into another zoning category, such as single-
family residential, though density is limited and
conservation requirements generally take pre-
cedence. In such areas, increased density would
be discouraged, and low impact development
methods would be required. Such requirements
place limits on development so as to ensure the
protection of resources. Active efforts to acquire
these areas should be pursued.
Low-impact additions may include walkways,
trails, fences, docks and access roadways.
