3.Zoning Map Amendment Considerations
Requests for general rezonings do not consider a particular land use but rather all of the uses permitted in the
requested zoning district for the subject property. Rezoning requests must be consistent with the New Hanover
County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Ordinance. Zoning Map amendments reclassify
the land that is subject of the application to the requested zoning district classification(s) and subjects it to the
development regulations applicable to the district(s).
The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Zoning Map
amendment meets the following criteria. (attach additional pages if necessary)
1.How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development, as
described in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, applicable small area plans, etc.?
2.How would the requested zoning change be consistent with the property’s classification on the 2016
Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map?
Along I-40 at the end of Brookdale Drive 323112.86.0774 [R01800-002-027-000]
4.97 acres I-2 R-10 General Residential
The tract is located in the General Residential place-type on the comprehensive land use map. That
overlay is intened to protect environmentally sensitive areas by limiting density and impacts of
development. The policies for growth & development encourage safe & affordable housing to be
available to every citizen. Rezoning the subject tract from a potentially non-compatible use would be
consistent with assuring poximity of approriate land uses.
The heavy-industrial zoning district, and its permitted uses are highly inappropriate for this location,and not recommended for the General Residential place-type. The proposed residential district would be consistent with the lands surrounding it.

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?
4.How will this zoning change serve the public interest?
The subject
The subject tract is a remnant of lands severed from their original residential status, in a subdivisionnamed Brookdale Acres, by land acquisition for and construction of Interstate 40. It is unclear howthe heavy-industrial (I-2) district was applied. The tract is un-accessible, unless an access easementwould be granted by the adjacent lands, which are zoned residential. Accessing the types of usespermitted within the I-2 district through residential lands would not be appropriate.
The under-lying lands within the subject tract include wetlands and are almost entirely in a specialflood hazard area as shown on the FEMA maps. Rezoning the lands to a residential district will protect from any non-compatible use from ever being developed on the property.
