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.
per 1000 sqft + per space
Mini-Warehousing (151) / 38,600+/- s.f. Interior Storage + 60-70+/- spaces
5 + 1 = 6 10 + 1 = 11
The policies for growth and development encourage continued efforts to attract new business.Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing use of lands. The proposeddevelopment will provide a location-efficient service to the residential development occuring in thisarea of the County.

Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 05-2021
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?
Sidbury Road is an arterial roadway that will ultimately support vehicular circulation for a largenumber residential developments envisioned for this area. The developer of the adjacentresidential development has not yet begun home construction, but has voiced supportfor this kind of business service to be a positive aspect for their future real estate marketingefforts.
The Comprehensive Land Use Plan identifies the subject tract as being in a "Community Mixed-Use"place-type. A variety of uses, including commercial services, are appropriate. There are already an extensive residential development and a large apartment complex, approved within two (2) milesof the site. The desire for having self-storage facilities within a three-mile range of one'shome has become an industry standard.

Re: Sidbury Self‐Storage
The Owner of the tract shown in the exhibit, a parcel on Sidbury Road approximately 2 miles
East of the I‐40 overpass, is interested in developing a self‐service storage facility. The land is
within the proximity of your property. The development 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 & conditions pertaining to each individual development project. Essentially,
this means that only the use, structures & layout of an approved proposal can be developed.
An exhibit of the project is enclosed.
The County requires that the developer hold a meeting for all property owners within 500 feet
of the tract boundary, and any other interested parties. This provides neighbors with an
opportunity for explanation of the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning
project improvements, benefits and impacts.
A meeting will be held on Thursday, December 30th, 6:00 p.m., at the office of Design Solutions,
107 Stokley Drive, Unit 104, Wilmington, 28403.
If you cannot attend, you are welcome to contact me at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or email
cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions.
We appreciate your interest in the project, and look forward to being a good neighbor and an
asset to the community.
