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.

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

Re: SaveDog Project
The SaveDog organization is interested in developing their East Coast transfer facility at 4503 N College Road.
The property is already zoned for industrial use, but a conditional district rezoning would allow for a better
site layout. The proposal would require 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 tract of land is within that proximity of your property. 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, May 25th, 6:00 p.m., 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.
