Supplemental Application Information
Proposed Conditional Rezoning by Olympus Holding Company Castle Hayne, LLC
New Hanover County Parcels R01100-008-011-002 & R01100-008-010-000
(Approx. 72.4 acres located at the intersection of Holly Shelter Road and Blue Clay Road)
3. Proposed Zoning, Use(s), & Narrative
Please list the uses that will be allowed within the proposed Conditional Zoning District, the
purpose of the district, and a project narrative.
The proposed conditional zoning would allow the subject parcel to be developed with
a mixture of townhomes and multi-family units consisting of a maximum of 521 units.
The existing zoning is split between I-1 Industrial and small portion R-15 residential
along Blue Clay Road. 243 multi-family units are proposed near to the corner of
Holly Shelter Road and Blue Clay Road with a primary site access located on Holly
Shelter away from the intersection of Blue Clay Road. A proposed secondary
apartment access is located at Blue Clay Road across from the S&W Ready Mix site.
while the townhomes are located further south on Blue Clay Road closer to existing
housing.
The conditional rezoning plan depicts townhomes with four or more attached units, and
current market conditions indicate this is how the project will remain. However, the
applicant requests the ability to mix the residential types outside of the apartments.
RMF-L allows multiple residential product types including single family, duplex, triplex
and quadraplex as well as townhomes/rowhouses. We request the ability to provide
a mixture of units for the 278 units proposed outside of the apartment area in
accordance with the residential types allowed in RMF-L. The applicant understands
that any change in unit mix will require review by New Hanover County Planning staff
to assure compliance with the rezoning plan and by NCDOT/WMPO to assure the
proposed project is still compliant with the Traffic Impact Analysis as approved or
revised as needed. Major changes to the plan will require a new submittal to New
Hanover County Planning
The site is currently zoned for industrial use and a small portion along Blue Clay Road
is zoned R15 for residential use. The proposed mixed residential zoning would be
more compatible with existing homes on Blue Clay Road and would also be aligned
with the General Residential place type applied to this area by the Comprehensive
Plan. The Holly Shelter corridor near the site currently has a mixture of uses including
industrial and more intensive uses before stepping down to the less intense business and
residential uses along Blue Clay Road. Keeping with the existing development pattern,
we propose clustering the apartments along Holly Shelter thereby creating a transition
from the more intense zoning use along Holly Shelter to the less intense residential
portion of our project along Blue Clay Road.

A TIA was completed for the proposed development and approved by the WMPO
and NCDOT. The notable required roadway improvements include signalizing Holly
Shelter Road at the I-40 interchange and installing new turn lanes at the Holly Shelter
Road and Blue Clay Road intersection.
4. Proposed Condition(s)
The development will be built in accordance with the conditional rezoning plan, the
UDO, and any approved modifications to the plan.
5. Traffic Impact
*See provided Traffic Impact Analysis
6. Conditional Zoning District Considerations
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.
The proposal will help provide and increase the range of housing options in northern
New Hanover County, consistent with the policies of the Comprehensive Plan. The
subject site is also accessed by major collector roadways and is in close proximity to
Castle Hayne, I-40, and educational facilities (Castle Hayne Elementary, Holly Shelter
Middle, and CFCC). The proposed density is consistent with the recommendations of
the General Residential place type. Lastly, the design of the development would
concentrate the density in multi-family structures adjacent Holly Shelter Road closer to
areas classified as Community Mixed Use on the Future Land Use Map. The proposed
townhomes are closer to the existing residential homes on Blue Clay Road.
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.
The subject site is classified as General Residential on the Future Land Use Map. This
classification promotes lower density residential (less than 8 du/ac) and associated civic
and commercial services. The proposed conditional RMF-L (Residential Multi-Family
Low Density) district would be limited to a maximum of 521 units (7.2 du/ac) and thus
consistent with the density recommendation of the General Residential place type. The
proposed multi-family structures are located along Holly Shelter Road, closer to areas
classified as Community Mixed Use.
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?
With the adoption of the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, the subject site was classified as
General Residential which promotes residential development not to exceed 8 du/ac. In
addition, New Hanover County has approved plans to extend utility services down
Holly Shelter Road in order to support future development of the corridor.
