6. Conditional Zoning District Considerations
The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be
consistent with the New Hanover County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the objectives outlined in the Unified
Development Ordinance and where only a specific use or uses is proposed. The procedure is intended primarily for
use with transitions between zoning districts of 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
Zoning district meets the following criteria.
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.
Based on KSF
14,400 s.f.+/- Recreation Center (ITE 492) / 3,600 s.f.+/- Pet Supply (ITE 866)
20 + 0 = 20 51 + 12 = 63
The policies for growth and development encourage continued efforts to maintain existing
businesses, and attract new ones. The property is along a commercial corridor where
business activities and services are most convenient to the surrounding residential
communities. Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing
land use.

Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 12-2020
2.How would the requested Conditional Zoning district be consistent with the property’s classification on the
2016 Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map.
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?
The tract is identified in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as a "Community Mixed-Use" place-type.The plan suggests higher densities or more intensive uses to support the sourrounding residentialneighborhoods. The proposed project is an acceptable transition use along the busy road corridor.
The subject property was zoned as a conditional use district only as a place-holder for futuredevelopment. The current restriction on use is for the property to remain vacant. Modifying the existing business zone for a specific Conditional District, will allow sensible use of the property,and still protect adjacent properties with the required development standards and mitigation ofimpacts.

Re: Notice of Community Information Meeting /
Rezoning of 4629 & 4631 Carolina Beach Road
Carolina Dog Sports is interested in developing an indoor recreation center on lands within the proximity of
your property. This proposal would require a Conditional 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, structure(s) and layout of an approved proposal can be developed. A preliminary plan of the project
layout is enclosed.
We are holding a meeting for any and all interested parties. This provides neighbors with an opportunity for
explanation of the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning improvements, benefits & impacts.
A meeting will be held on Thursday, October 28th, at Picnic Shelter #3, Long Leaf Park (north side of the park
accessed from Pine Grove Road), 6:00 p.m. If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me:
Cindee Wolf at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or email cwolf@lobodemar.biz
with comments and/or questions.
We appreciate your interest in the project, look forward to being an asset to the community.
