RE: Community Meeting for Master Planned Development by Hanover Development
Company, LLC
You are receiving this notification because New Hanover County GIS records indicate you own
property near or adjacent to a +68.67 acre property being considered for a master planned
development/rezoning by our clients, Hanover Development Company, Inc. The land is further
identified as New Hanover County Parcel Numbers R02800-004-104-000 and R02800-004-031-
000. This land will be bisected by the future Military Cutoff Extension creating two separate
areas, both with easy access to the new highway. Access to a major regional highway opens
opportunities for a commercial node offering goods and services to neighboring communities.
We are embarking on the first step of a new development to provide those goods and services
integrated with new residential communities, and we would appreciate your input on our
proposed master planned development plan (MPD). The purpose of this MPD is to set the
groundwork for future commercial and residential areas of this property by identifying the uses,
road network, pedestrian connectivity, and transition of use from more intensive commercial
uses clustered near the main roadways/highway into residential neighborhoods on the edge of
the PD development. Our initial MPD, enclosed with this notice, proposes rezoning the property
from R-15 to Planned Development (PD) in the areas south of the Military Cutoff Extension and
Regional Business (B-2) in the areas north of that highway. These districts allow the kind of uses
and neighborhoods we would like to bring to the area combined under a master plan.
Due to COVID 19, we will not be holding an in-person meeting to discuss our plans and listen
to your comments or concerns. Instead, you are invited to attend a virtual meeting on
GoToMeeting on Thursday, July 30, 2020 at 5:00 PM. At that meeting, we will share our
plans for a mixed-use community with a variety of residential housing types integrated with a
various potential retail, restaurant, office, and other commercial uses. We will listen you your
comments and then prepare a plan for submittal to the New Hanover County Planning
Department and boards for further review.
Please reference the enclosed MPD for a first look at the project and join us on the 30th for a
more in-depth explanation of the plan.
We look forward to speaking with you
5:00 on July 30, 2020
If you are unable to attend the virtual meeting but would like to discuss or comment on the plan,
please email Allison Engebretson at aengebretson@paramounte-eng.com for more information.
