Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment My home boarders this proposed development. I think I speak for most of the community when we say that we don’t mind development of single family homes on that property. What we do mind is the population density the apartments will bring. The homes in Vineyard Plantation are 460K+ and I’m being told that I’m going to have a apartment complex in my back yard. Our property values will decrease and we will never recover. We already have drainage and traffic issues. How can I believe this developer will fix that? It’s only going to get worse. We voted all of you into office to protect us. Here’s your chance. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Chris Nagle <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 8:46 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Chris Nagle Address 645 Winery Way Wilmington, NC 28511 United States Map It Email cmnagle70@yahoo.com Projects available for comment. Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I strongly oppose this project. I’m very concerned this project will increase traffic speed in front of my house. I have young children and fear for their safety. The high density aspect will have negative impacts on our schools which are already over capacity. The circle and Porters Neck Road are already at maximum capacity. Please do not allow apartments. Thank you. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Scott Kline <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 8:51 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Scott Kline Address 638 Winery Way Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email klinescott@me.com Projects available for comment.

Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I appose changing the zoning for this land. The increased traffic on Porters Neck Rd and neighborhoods around the area will be too great. Having high density housing decreases the amount of rainwater that would be absorbed by that land. This will cause runoff into other communities around the land. Wilmington has many new apartment communities and more opening everyday. I was born in Wilmington and hate to see it lose it’s hometown feel by cramming high density housing in every free piece of land. A sensible plan that uses the existing zoning would make everyone happy. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Therese Mcmullan <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 8:55 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Therese Mcmullan Address 514 Chablis Way Wilmington, North Carolina 28411 United States Map It Email Tmcmullan2@twc.com Projects available for comment.

Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I am submitting my objection regarding the Logan Homes Project. This project will lead to increased storm water downstream, trees and wildlife will be wiped out and the overall density in our area will increase dramatically with a reduction in our quality of life. In addition, the increase in traffic and apartments to our neighborhoods is unacceptable. Our schools are already over populated and the current plan of rezoning students all over the county instead of building new schools is absolutely ridiculous. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Jackie McDonough <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 8:58 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Jackie McDonough Address 630 Winery Way Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Projects available for comment.

Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment The access to Market St. and 140 is by one lane. There are only 2 accesses to Market St., Futch Creek Rd. and Porters Neck Rd., which is now backed up in the morning due to all of the elementary school traffic. This high density plan is also not sensitive to the environment that most of us respect. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Deanna Hudson <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:04 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Deanna Hudson Address 706 Winery Way Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email hudsondeanna@yahoo.com Projects available for comment.

Oppose project Public Comment I have sent several emails to each of the Commissioners on this topic. This was terrible before Covid-19. It is even worse now. Why have a vote if you never say NO to something that the planning board has approved. Use your elected power for good, and send a message to Logan Homes and all other greedy developers. New Hanover County cares about its people. Original zoning matters. I built my house based upon the current zoning. They should too. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Kristina fanning <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:04 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Kristina fanning Address 1112 Edgewater Club road Wilmignton, Nc 28411 United States Map It Email Kfanning874@gmail.com Projects available for comment.

Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I’m a born and raised Wilmingtonian and I’ve seen the development of this town explode in the late 90’s through today. While it has been great for the local economy and, of course, the tax revenue we desperately need (eye roll), enough is enough. High density development is exactly what makes Wilmington NOT desirable. All the charm this place had is being paved over to make way for apartment high rises and car washes. It’s disgraceful and all in the name of money. Traffic is absolutely ridiculous and you might as well forget about boating on a weekend around Wrightsville Beach. Can we, just once, say no and let some green spaces stay green for posterity’s sake? I know money talks, so maybe we can somehow ask the constituency If they’d like to help funding these green spaces. Then again, you’d have to let go of that tax revenue. Your call... I’d love to hear directly from those making the decision. Feel free to call me at 910-297-6789.

Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I strongly oppose this project for a number of reasons. First and foremost, we already have way too much traffic in this area, making the roads unsafe for our children, walkers, bikers, etc. With only 2 entrances/exits to get onto HWY17/Market St., the number of accidents will only increase. We’ve already had a fatality and child hit by a car. My neighbors and I daily yell at cars flying through the neighborhood. We can not add to this nonsense. Also, if this proposal is passed, our already overcrowded schools will become even more so. Water runoff and drainage will become even more of an issue. It’s already a big problem when storms come through. We strongly urge you to deny this proposed development. Thank you. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Gregory Delaney <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:30 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Gregory Delaney Address 620 Chablis Way Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email Grgdelaney@aol.com Projects available for comment. Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I oppose this development due to volume. The amount of traffic is horrible now, especially with lack of speed control and sheriffs presence. Our neighborhood now is used as a cut through with each house averaging two young kids and narrow streets. It’s tragic accident waiting to happen. We have already had fatal accidents in the area. Another issue is the overcrowding of our schools not planned for the volume. Right now is the time act on your end to keep from having to put trailers or other terrible solutions to overcrowding. This drives people away from an area due to lowering school ratings. Houses on the water will always be attractive to people, but this area has limited water access for boating, beach access, or just even looking at it. So taking away a great school, and no infrastructure for traffic, such sidewalks on narrow streets, will drive people away. Another big problem in the area is Flooding. Every neighborhood in the area has to deal with flooding around here. Just look at the development across portersneck rd. They cleared all the trees and put a retention pond right agains the existing people’s homes building the dirt up away from them. That is just wrong to the existing residents who have lived here for years, opening up them to flooding putting them down hill of the new potential homes. Even on a light rain they having to have pumps run to empty the hole they dug. This is even downhill of the proposed development at Murray Farm adding more water. On any given rain even I bet there will be water across portersneck rd. Either way the developer with the interjection of apartments in the area will make more imperviousness surface directing it away from them into neighboring homes causing even more flooding. It’s just theyway they do it as seen in the development across street. All homes and roads will be flooding issues. Again driving people away. There are way more cons then pro for allowing high density or volume in this area. It would be very disappointing to see the board approve another proposal that harms the area residents that they are there to protect from overdevelopment. The developer is not resident in Portersneck area, and has been very vocal about the need for high volume to turn a acceptable profit on their planned development. They have no interest in this communities improvement, schools, kids free from dangers of road hazards, or other issues on Portersneck. They only care on their acceptable profit margin. This easy seen from past meetings. Also in the last meeting the board had a ncdot official state they might look a road improvements, but no definite plans or money to do them. Well now the state doesn’t even have the money to do Hampstead by pass, or other projects due to extreme revenue shortfalls. It would be irresponsible to approve a development with assumed road Improvements with no funding not only for this project, but large existing projects. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Kenan Morisey <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:30 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Kenan Morisey Address 312 Marsh Oaks Dr. Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Projects available for comment.

It was really bad last year without any of this new development. 2. Traffic- we can barely get out of our neighborhood on to Porters Neck at certain times of the day. All this new development will overwhelm the traffic situation. 3. Destruction of trees, wildlife will be a shame and cause more flood waters to occur.

This development, as proposed, will prove dire to our traffic infrastructure, public safety, storm and coastal water quality, and negatively impact our schools. Porter's Neck Road is already dangerous with the amount of traffic coming through daily. Children are not safe getting on and off school buses due to the influx of traffic and inadequate roads. Last year a child was hit by a car getting on the bus on Porter's Neck Road. The roundabout on Porter's Neck Road is extremely dangerous as cars fail to yield every day. I have been almost hit too many time to count. Adding more vehicles to this already congested traffic is not only negligent but could be fatal.

Oppose project Public Comment I do not think a project of the magnitude of the Logan project is a wise decision on the part of the board. The traffic impact on the limited roads here in Porters Neck would be disastrous. The traffic on Porters Neck road is already past its limit. The Board needs to consider quality of life in the Wilmington area. Approving further projects that include apartment complexes is just insane. This area cannot support more cars on the road! Do something about the infrastructure first before approving all these apartment projects that will destroy the ambiance and attractiveness of living in the Wilmington area. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Ann Fialk <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:55 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Ann Fialk Address 886 Wine Cellar Circle Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email Afski2@yahoo.com Projects available for comment.

Of more concern is the disregard to current zoning. This application includes multi Story apartments with increased occupancy and more traffic in one family zone and residential local roads. All recent construction of similar size apartment complexes are located adjacent to a main road, Market St and Military Cutoff Rd and do not involve driving through residential neighborhoods. Approving this would application would be a total disregard for proper planning growth in accordance with what a Master Plan should provide. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Brad Shaver <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:56 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Brad Shaver Address 818 Wine Cellar Circle Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email bcreekbird@aol.com Projects available for comment. Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way What is the nature of your comment? Oppose project Public Comment I believe that such a dense development will bring unattended consequences such as traffic/safety but more importantly affects to downstream waters. We chose to live in this County due to its natural environment and it seems irresponsible for the County to approve a subdivision this dense and jeopardize downstream water quality. I feel that if this happens and continues to happen the very resource that attracts citizens to this region will continue to decline and individuals will seek other areas in better shape. The downstream waters are already impacted as evidence by there water quality classification, why should the County gamble on storm water devices that are designed for a 500 years storm when we have several of these tropical systems over the past five years. Be smart and respect the natural environment it all works together and approve development but just not to this density. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of BRITTANY MARTIN <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 9:58 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name BRITTANY MARTIN Address 8539 REISLING AVE WILMINGTON, NC 28411 United States Map It Email BRITTANY@COASTALCAROLINARESPICARE.COM Projects available for comment.

Oppose project Public Comment I strongly oppose the density of this proposed development based on predictable impacts on flooding, runoff to endangered streams, school overcrowding and horrific impacts on traffic. Traffic on Porters Neck Road and connecting roads is significantly worst than ten years ago. We heard Commissioner Woody White state several years ago unequivocally that the developments along Market Street near this proposed development could be handled by the existing roads and infrastructure. Baloney! Just drive it today morning, noon or night to see just how wrong those DOT impacts were. Additionally the new development adjacent to the traffic circle on Porters Neck Road (where a SW retention pond is immediately adjacent to the roadway) will inevitably lead to flooding during a major storm. Enough please. I have worked on storm water management at Porters Neck Plantation to overcome inadequate design and maintenance for 10 years. We have made some progress with NHC and State. Don't obviate those efforts with this poorly designed project. 1 Smith, Gideon From:mvolkmar=nhcgov.com@webformsnhcgov.com on behalf of Martin Wasserberg <mvolkmar@nhcgov.com> Sent:Friday, May 29, 2020 10:31 AM To:Schuler, Brad; Meredith, Ron; Smith, Gideon; Vafier, Ken; Gartin, Jyll Subject:Public Comment on Z19-14 – The Oaks at Murray Farm – 8300 Block of “Old” Market Street/Shiraz Way Name Martin Wasserberg Address 8406 Reisling Ave Wilmington, NC 28411 United States Map It Email mwasserb@gmail.com Projects available for comment.

Leave as currently zoned.
