This area IS regulated by the New Hanover County's Conservation Overlay District which purpose is to protect these Important environmental resources within the County. ProtectIOn of these resources is necessary to maintain the County's diverse and ecologically important natural systems as well as to provide open space. The proposed entranceway needs to be relocated to avoid the unnecessary crossing of these important wetlands. This is a highly congested area along Market St. WIth traffic movements already failmg at many locations. Alternative designs for the entrances to the site have been discussed with NCDOT and Wal-Mart's engineers. However, this wetland crossing has not been dictated by anyone that I'm aware. Certainly the opportunity to utilize an existing signalized intersection has merits in protectmg the flow of traffic along US 17. The Plmming Staff supports the realignment of Lendire Rd with the signal at Middle Sound Loop. We would also encourage interconnectivity WIth neighborhoods and propeliles to the north and west m order to eliminate as many trips as possible from utilIzmg Market St as an access pomt. It is the Plam1ing Staffs pOSItion that thIS segment of Market St cannot accommodate the 7,000 - 8,000 trips prOjected for thIS project. The approval of any large traffic generator at thIS location should be delayed untIl the completIOn of MIlitary Cut-Off extenSIOn.
