Project Information Notice
December 21, 2020
To: Adjacent Property Owners
Re: 4525 Castle Hayne Road / Driftwood Farms Event Center
My clients are interested in developing the referenced property for an event center. An exhibit
of the general site layout is attached. This proposal would require a Conditional Zoning District
approval from New Hanover County.
A Conditional Zoning District allows particular uses to be established only in accordance with
specific standards and conditions pertaining to each individual development project.
Essentially, this means that only that use, structures and layout of an approved proposal can be
developed.
The County requires that the developer notify the property owners within an adjacency to the
project and hold a meeting for any and all interested parties. This is intended to provide
neighbors with an opportunity for explanation of the proposal, and for questions to be
answered concerning project improvements, benefits, and impacts.
Due to the current COVID‐19 issue, however, a meeting cannot be held at this time. In lieu of
that, you can contact the land planner, Cindee Wolf, with comments or questions at:
Telephone: 910‐620‐2374, or
Email: cwolf@lobodemar.biz
We can also set up an on‐line meeting for a forum with multiple parties if requested. Please let
me know if you are interested in that alternative and arrangements will be made. All contact,
comments, concerns, and recommendations must be recorded in a report delivered to the
County along with the rezoning application.
Prior to this project being reviewed by the Planning Board & Commissioners, you will receive
subsequent notices of the agendas directly from the County. Those meetings provide public
hearings for comment on any issues pertinent to approval of the proposal.
We appreciate your interest and look forward to being a good neighbor and an asset to the
community.
