Please list the uses that will be allowed within the proposed Conditional Zoning District, the purpose of the district, and a project narrative (please provide additional pages if needed). ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ Proposed Condition(s) Within a Conditional Zoning District, additional conditions and requirements which represent greater restrictions on the development and use of the property than the corresponding General Use District regulations may be added. These conditions may assist in mitigating the impacts the proposed development may have on the surrounding community. Please list any conditions proposed to be placed on the Conditional Zoning District below. Staff, the Planning Board, and Board of Commissioners may propose additional conditions during the review process. ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________ (CZD)R-5 3.60 AC. The purpose of the R-5 district is to encourage medium density development where adequate services are already available. Single-family and individually-owned, detached-townhome housing is permitted in the residential districts by performance development standards. The style of development adds an alternative housing option in this area of the County that has historically been limited to single-family homes on larger lots. Reference the site plan for project layout. All landscaping requirements for an attached housing project would be applied to add shading, visual interest and aesthetic quality. Page 5 of 7 Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 5/2017 Traffic Impact Please provide the estimated number of trips generated for the proposed use(s) based off the most recent version of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) must be completed for all proposed developments that generate more than 100 peak hour trips, and the TIA must be included with this application. ITE Land Use: _________________________________________________________________________________ Trip Generation Use and Variable (gross floor area, dwelling units, etc.): __________________________________ AM Peak Hour Trips: ___________________________ PM Peak Hour Trips: ______________________________ CONSIDERATION OF A CONDITIONAL ZONING DISTRICT The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be consistent with the New Hanover County Land Use Plan and the Zoning Ordinance objective and where only a specific use or uses is proposed. The procedure is intended primarily for use with transitions between zoning districts of very dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and the community-at-large. The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Conditional Use Zoning District meets the following criteria. 1. How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development? (For example: the Comprehensive Plan and applicable small area plans) _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 2. How would the requested Conditional Zoning District be consistent with the property’s classification on the Future Land Use Map located within the Comprehensive Plan? _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 3. What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning? _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ 210 - Single-family Homes PER DWELLLING UNIT @ 22 UNITS 17 22 The policies for growth and development encourage safe and affordable housing to be available to every citizen. Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing use of lands already accessible to urban services. Increased density of development not only adds to the tax base, but makes better use of the existing infrastructure. Rezoning this property for moderate density provides alternative housing opportunities in an area that already has public services available to it. Clustering by performance standards allows for more open common area. Since the original Spring View neighborhood was created, the construction of I-40 as an extension of N College Road, and of MLK Parkway, has made this vicinity more attractive for housing opportunities because of the increased ease of commuting from home to jobs and services. Adding modest increase of density for new development is not uncommon.

The tract as it exists, and as zoned in the R‐15 district, can be developed by‐right of the New Hanover County Uniﬁed Development Code, with up to nine residenƟal housing units. AŌer a thorough Ɵtle search by an AƩorney, it has also been conﬁrmed that this land is not subject whatsoever to the DeclaraƟon of Covenants that have applied to the lots created as part of that neighborhood. Other than 20’ setbacks and a maximum height of 35’, there is no dictate over the size of lots, type of structure(s) or style of architecture. Those units could be nine detached homes, nine townhomes or even nine apartment units in a single building in ac‐ cordance with the County’s Performance Development standard. The difference with a CondiƟonal Zoning District rezoning is that a parƟcular use can be established with speciﬁc standards and condiƟons pertaining to the individual develop‐ ment project. EssenƟally, even though the density would be increased to some extent, there is a surety on the type of housing product, the layout and the improvements. This land will be developed in the near future. The County’s Comprehensive Land Use Plan recommends that increased density is appropriate for this tract, and sustainability of the County depends on sensible in‐ﬁll. Based on the comments voiced during previous meeƟngs, the Owner is willing to commit to twenty‐two (22) single‐family homes as shown on the following plan. It is obviously more density than the nine units currently permiƩed, but offers assurances of the housing type, the layout and the improvements. We believe that this proposed community would be the most posiƟve addiƟon to the Spring View neighborhood. Map Book 8 / Page 50 We intend to make a new submiƩal and want to give neighbors another opportunity for explanaƟon of the proposal, and for quesƟons to be answered concerning project improvements, beneﬁts, and impacts. Due to the current COVID‐19 issue, a meeƟng cannot be held at this Ɵme. In lieu of that, you can contact me with comments or quesƟons at: Telephone: 910‐620‐2374, or Email: cwolf@lobodemar.biz We can also set up an on‐line meeƟng for a forum with mulƟple parƟes if requested. Please let me know if you are interested in that alternaƟve and arrangements will be made. All contact, comments, concerns, and recommendaƟons will be recorded in a report delivered to the County along with a rezoning applicaƟon. Prior to this project being reviewed by the Planning Board & Commissioners, you will receive subsequent noƟces of those agendas directly from the County. Those meeƟngs provide public hearings for comment on any issues perƟnent to approval of the proposal.
