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.
General Office (710)
1500 s.f.+/- (GFA)
2 2
Policies for growth and development encourage continued efforts to attract and maintainbusinesses. The petitioner operates a successful real estate enterprise here in New HanoverCounty and wishes to operate out of an office in this location. The property is along a majorcommercial corridor where there is good visibility and business activities are common. Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing land use.

Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 02-2022
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 parcel is within an area of the County identified by the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as a"Community Mixed-Use" place-type. That criteria suggests more intensive uses to support thesurrounding community. The proposed project is adaptive reuse of an existing structure and the useis an acceptable transition between the busy highway corridor and the more established single-familyhousing beyond.
Carolina Beach Road is a major thoroughfare, and has become extremely busy over the years. Theseparcels along the highway are no longer attractive for the classic single-family home.

The undersigned hereby certifies that written notice of a community meeting on the above

The persons in attendance at the meeting were: Reference attached sign-in list
The following issues were discussed at the meeting: A brief presentation was given on the
intent of the petitioner to renovate the existing structure for a business office, and the specifics
of a conditional zoning district. The plan for a new driveway onto Leigh Road, and parking in
the rear yard was shown and potential uses, if approved, were explained.
Questions and concerns were voiced about adequate signage to prevent clients from by-
passing the driveway and turning around in private drives. Removal of trees was also an
issue, as they provide some sound blocking of the highway noise.
Overall, the consensus appeared to be support, feeling that it would be an upgrade of the
subject property value and neighborhood aesthetics.

Re: Tidal Realty Partners Office
7100 Carolina Beach Road
My Client is interested in using the existing structure at this address for a professional office. Your property is located
within the proximity of the proposed project.
This 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 and conditions pertaining to
each individual development project. Essentially, this means that only a specific set of uses, in this case the existing
structure and proposed property improvements of an approved proposal can be developed.
The County requires that the developer hold a meeting for all property owners within 500 feet of the tract boundary,
and any and all 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 Tuesday, September 27th, 6:00 p.m., at the Veteran’s Park Picnic Shelter #2. The location is off
the parking lot north of the tennis courts, 355 Halyburton Memorial Parkway.
If you cannot attend, you are also 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.
