Request by BDLCT, LLC, applicant and property owner, to rezone approximately 27.55 acres located at
3500 Block of Castle Hayne Road from the R-20, Residential District and removing the Special Highway
Overlay District (SHOD) to the PD, Planned Development District for a mixed residential and
commercial development.

minutes for rebuttal.

5. Before we proceed with a motion and vote, I would like to invite the applicant to the podium.
Based on the Board discussion and items presented during the public hearing, would you
like withdraw your petition, request a continuance, or proceed with a vote?
6. Vote on the application. The motion should include a statement saying how the change is,
or is not, consistent with the land use plan and why approval or denial of the rezoning
request is reasonable and in the public interest.
Alternative Motion for Approval
I move to recommend APPROVAL of the proposed PD rezoning with the attached Terms and
Conditions document. I find it to be CONSISTENT with the purposes and intent of the
Comprehensive Plan because the project provides for the types and mixture of uses
recommended in the Community Mixed Use and General Residential place types, and the
project will create a new commercial node in close proximity to nearby residents. I also find
recommending APPROVAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the public interest
because the project provides additional housing diversity to the area and increases vehicular
and pedestrian circulation.
Alternative Motion for Denial
I move to recommend DENIAL of the proposed rezoning. While I find it to be CONSISTENT
with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive Plan because the project provides for
the types and mixture of uses recommended in the Community Mixed Use place type, the
residential densities are in line with those recommended within the General Residential
place type, and the project will create a new commercial node in close proximity to nearby
residents, I find recommending DENIAL of the rezoning request is reasonable and in the
public interest because the proposed development will detract from the character of the
surrounding community.
Alternative Motion for Approval/Denial:
I move to RECOMMEND [Approval/Denial] of the proposed rezoning to a (CZD) B-2 district.
I find it to be [Consistent/Inconsistent] with the purposes and intent of the Comprehensive
Plan because [insert reasons]
