•Due to the size of the parcel and proximity to Carolina Beach Road, the property is less likely to
be developed with lower density detached single-family housing.
•The proposed density of 6.7 dwelling units per acre is below the maximum allowed for the R-5
zoning district and less than the maximum recommended for the Community Mixed Use place
type.
•Several environmentally sensitive areas have been identified on the property including state
regulated wetlands, the AE Special Flood Hazard Area, Pocosin conservation resources, and
several significant and specimen trees.
•Additional conditions have been provided guaranteeing tree retention, utility service, access to
current owners along the existing easement, and the potential to reduce development in flood
prone areas.

2016 Comprehensive Plan Place Type:
General Residential and Urban Mixed Use
Planning Board Action
The Planning Board considered this item at their August 3 meeting and voted (5 -
2) to recommend APPROVAL of the proposed rezoning.
The Planning Board found the application to be CONSISTENT with the 2016
Comprehensive Plan because the proposed density and housing type is within
the recommendations of the Community Mixed Use place type.
The Planning Board also found recommending APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest because the project provides housing diversity at an appropriate density to act as a transition between the highway and residential development to the east and proposed additional conditions reduce some impacts on environmental features.
