1. Zoning district: B-2
2. Parking
a. Parking is sufficient.
3. Access:

access on Piner Road and Carolina Beach Road. If NCDOT confirms no Driveway Permit
edits are necessary, please disregard the following comment.
b. Please provide all NCDOT approvals upon receipt. Please be aware that no building permit
will be issued until NCDOT has issued the Driveway Permit.
4. Tree Retention:
a. Please apply for a Tree Removal Permit.
b. Please refer to UDO Section 5.3 for Tree Retention Standards.
c. The two 24” pines, the 18” oak and the 24” oak will require mitigation.
5. Landscaping and Buffering:
a. Please provide a landscape plan detailing the plantings, including size and species, for the
foundation plantings, parking lot interior landscaping, and street yard.

b. Please confirm total square footage of foundation plantings for landscaping, parking lot
islands/landscaping and street yard.
c. Please note that foundation plantings are not required for the portions of the building
adjacent to drive-thrus. They are required for the portions of the building facing parking
or internal drive aisles, but exceptions may be made where there is a drive thru. Please
see below screengrab for where foundation plantings would be required on this site plan.
d. Are the two clouded areas indicated in the screengrab below intended for interior parking
lot landscaping? UDO Section 5.4.5 provides guidelines for interior parking lot
landscaping.

approval (Section 10.3.6, Site Plan) or zoning compliance approval (Section 10.3.8, Zoning
Compliance Approval), whichever comes first. A lighting plan must be provided to

Engineering Studies
The applicant may be required by the District Engineer to submit studies based on, but not limited to, the parameters outlined
herein. If study requirements of the local government agency are more restrictive than the NCDOT requirements, then local
government requirements will govern. However, this does not imply that the NCDOT is obligated to approve entrance designs
that are too constrictive to allow smooth and safe traffic flow. All studies including, but not limited to, Traffic Impact Analyses
(TIA), traffic signal studies, and drainage studies, must be prepared under the direct charge of and sealed by a North Carolina
licensed Professional Engineer.
