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. 491 / Racquet / Tennis Club per Courts @ 23 30 77 The policies and goals of the Comprehensive Plan include providing a convenient mix of land uses. Boththe Commercila District Mixed-Use and General Residential place-types would include recreationfacilities as being appropriate close to the residents that they would serve. This type of use provides anacceptable transition along major arterial corridors such as N. College Road. Page 4 of 6 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? As primarily a "Community Mixed-Use" place-type, the Plan suggests higher densities and commercialservices. Pickleball has become a flourishing recreational activity, and the lack of adequate facilities tohandle the demand, particularly in New Hanover County, has been well-publicized. Policies for growthand development encourage promoting new businesses for a diverse and thriving economy. N. College Road is fronted by a variety of land uses, including some fairly intensive industrialbusinesses. One is directly across the road from the subject tract, and another just one tractover to the South. Although the Castle Hayne area is primed for more residential developmentas public water & sewer services are being extended, the properties along the road corridorare no longer appropriate for low-density residential housing.

REPORT OF COMMUNITY MEETING REQUIRED BY NEW HANOVER COUNTY ZONING ORIDINANCE FOR CONDITIONAL DISTRICT REZONINGS Project Name: 5000 N College Road Proposed Zoning: R-15 & CZD/CB The undersigned hereby certifies that written notice of a community meeting on the above zoning application was given to the adjacent property owners set forth on the attached list by first class mail, and provided to the Planning Department for notice of the Sunshine List on March 12, 2022 . A copy of that written notice and site layout are also attached. The meeting was held at the following time and place: Thursday, March 24th, 6:00 p.m.; at Shelter #2 of the Northern Regional Park, 4700 Old Avenue, Castle Hayne. The persons in attendance at the meeting were: Reference attached sign-in list The following issues were discussed at the meeting: Attendees were all from the community Off Kings Castle Lane, just north of the proposed project. Their questions were primarily related to buffer yards, and whether public water and / or sewer might be extended. The requirements for fencing and visual screening were explained. Although the subject project hopes to connect to public utilities that will hopefully be extended in the future by an adjacent residential community being proposed, current service will need to be by a private well for water, and a low-pressure solid waste system connected to a nearby force main. As a result of the meeting, the following changes were made to the petition: None Date: March 28, 2022 Applicant: Design Solutions By: Cindee Wolf ADJACENT PROPERTY OWNERS WITHIN 500' OF 5000 N COLLEGE ROAD: OWNER MAILING ADDRESS CITY / STATE / ZIP PROPERTY LOCATION BROWN HOWARD 19221 HYW 210 ROCKY POINT, NC 28457 BURNEY CATHERINE E HEIRS 206 DUPLIN ST N WALLACE, NC 28466 5000 COLLEGE RD N WILMINGTON DILL HILDA CAMERON ETAL PO BOX 3649 WILMINGTON, NC 28406 4900 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE DILL HILDA CAMERON ETAL PO BOX 3649 WILMINGTON, NC 28406 4900 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE DMH LAND LLC 501 COVIL AVE UNIT 2 WILMINGTON, NC 28403 4720 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE DOMBROSKI RONALD EDWARD 4917 CASTLE LAKES RD CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5212 COLLEGE RD N WILMINGTON HENDERSON DANNY L SARA W 217 CHIMNEY LN WILMINGTON, NC 28409 5105 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE HENDERSON DANNY SARA 217 CHIMNEY LN WILMINGTON, NC 28409 5115 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE JH LAND LLC PO BOX 3649 WILMINGTON, NC 28406 4950 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE KING HELEN MCINTYRE HEIRS 2804 FLETCHER CT CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 KING HELEN MCINTYRE HEIRS PO BOX 63 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 KING HELEN MCINTYRE HEIRS PO BOX 63 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5104 KINGS CASTLE LN KING KEVIN HASAN 5214 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5214 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE KING TERRENCE PO BOX 81 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5244 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE LEEBART PROPERTIES LLC 808 17TH ST S WILMINGTON, NC 28401 5145 COLLEGE RD N CASTLE HAYNE MOORE GARY ETAL 124 LONG RIDGE DR WILMINGTON, NC 28405 5204 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE PERKINS ANDREA LAFAYE HEIRS PO BOX 63 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 PERKINS VIRGINIA LIFE ESTATE PO BOX 63 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5200 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE REB ACQUISITIONS LLC PO BOX 7948 ROCKY MOUNT, NC 27804 4909 COLLEGE RD N WILMINGTON SCOTT BILLY PO BOX 235 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5218 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE SCOTT BILLY PO BOX 235 CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5218 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE SHAW DELLA K BENJAMIN 5104 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE, NC 28429 5106 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE WADDELL ARLENE Y HEIRS 15401 BLUE WILLOW LN ACCOKEEK, MD 20607 5230 KINGS CASTLE LN CASTLE HAYNE WONCE MARY L KING STEPHEN 505 LAZY ACRES RD BUMPASS, VA 23024 March 12, 2022 To: Adjacent Property Owners Re: Pickleball Center My client is interested in developing an indoor / outdoor recreation center on the property at 5000 N. College Road. This property is within the proximity of your lands. The 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, March 24th, at Shelter #2 of the Northern Regional Park, 4700 Old Avenue, Castle Hayne, 6:00 p.m. The location is left from Old Avenue, towards the tennis courts. 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, and look forward to being a good neighbor and an asset to the community.
