Compatibility
•These properties are located in one of the county’s more densely developed corridors and
within one of the three growth nodes.
•Public water and sewer is available in the area which is anticipated to experience additional
commercial and residential growth.
•The site plan places the amenity center closer to Market Street, serving as a transition from
that corridor to the residential development.
•The recently opened Military Cutoff Extension is anticipated to alleviate some traffic
concerns in the Porters Neck area.

Planning & Land Use November 2, 2023 Slide 16
Staff Recommendation
•The proposed conditional RMF-M district generally consistent with the comprehensive plan because the district is more in line with the densities that are appropriate for properties located in both the Urban Mixed Use and General Residential Place types.
