Current Planner
Date: August 2, 2019
Subject: Legacy Landing – Preliminary Plan TRC Review
The following comments have been received for the August 7, 2019 TRC meeting.
Please note: following the TRC meeting, a revised preliminary plan addressing each of the below items
must be resubmitted prior to receiving preliminary plan approval.
Planning, Ron Meredith 910-798-7441
1. Please update the plan with the following general corrections:
a. Please include the ownership of the adjacent properties Per Section 32-2(5) of the NHC
Subdivision Ordinance.
b. Please include lot dimensions to for zoning district dimensional requirement verification.
c. Please label the surrounding roads shown on the map (i.e. Brentwood Drive). NHC Subdivision
Ordinance Section 32-2(5)
d. Please indicate the location of the Entrance Signs and Lighting. 52-10 of the NHC Subdivision
Ordinance.
2. All new residential subdivisions shall provide recreation space in the amount of 0.03 acres per dwelling
unit within the subdivision. 50% of the required recreation area shall be designated for passive
recreation and 50% of the required recreation area shall be designated for active recreation per Section
52-7(2) of the NHC Subdivision Ordinance. Fee in lieu of open space requirements may be taken into
consideration.
3. Subdivisions adjacent to large tracts of unsubdivided property are required to provide street connections
to the adjacent undeveloped tracts. Please show an adjacent property connection with PID R02500-003-
097-000 per 41-1(7)(e) of the NHC Subdivision Ordinance. This may be more easily achieved with a
hammerhead design if this is an approved NCDOT turn around.
4. Please verify that there are no significant trees located on the subject property.
a. Please note that tree mitigation is required if any significant trees are located within planned
infrastructure pathways and stormwater areas, as well as rights-of-ways. Specifically, twice the
amount of caliper inches removed must be mitigated by either planting additional trees or by
making a payment into the County’s Tree Improvement Fund. All replacement trees must be 2-
3” in caliper at planting, or a $295 payment may be provided in lieu of installing one replacement
tree. Prior to issuance of land disturbance approvals, all significant trees to be removed must
be identified. Prior to final plat approval, a tree mitigation plan illustrating the method of
mitigation must be provided, and replacement trees must be either installed or bonded.

5. Have you considered the location of the cluster box units? Building Safety and USPS may have
additional standards for the cluster boxes.
6. Are there any wetlands on the site? If there are, please place the approximate delineation on the
Preliminary Plan per Section 32-2(21) of the NHC Subdivision Ordinance.
re-review
1. Please update the plan with the following general corrections:
a. Please label the surrounding roads shown on the map.
b. Please indicate the location of the Entrance Signs and Lighting.
c. Please include the roadway designation.
d. If the roads are public there may be an issue with mail kiosk design.
2. This is not a conventional R-20 subdivision after these modifications, these lots are considered an R-20
Performance Subdivision and will require additional performance subdivision standards to be installed.
Please refer to Section 3.1.3.D SUPERSEDING DIMENSIONAL STANDARDS of the New Hanover County
UDO. I have placed below the UDO link and some of the requirements for Performance Residential
Development.

08-2020_BM_TC100620.pdf
a. Setbacks and Spacing
i. Buildings on the periphery of a Performance Residential Development shall setback a
minimum of 20 feet from the adjoining property line.
Please Show this perimeter setback on the plan.
ii. Single-family detached dwellings shall be spaced a minimum of ten feet from each
other, measured from the closest parts of the buildings.
iii. No multiple dwelling unit shall be located closer than 20 feet to any part of another
dwelling unit.
b. 2. Density
i. In calculating the density for a proposed Performance Residential Development, the
areas in subsections 1 and 2 shall first be subtracted from the gross area of land to be
committed to development. In lieu of subtracting Dorovan, Johnston, and Pamlico
soils, the developer may choose to preserve 100 percent of such areas as conservation
space in accordance with Section 5.7, Conservation Resources:
c. Homeowners Association
i. A homeowners association meeting the following requirements shall be established:
ii. When a plat or map is to be recorded, the maps or plat shall contain a Certificate
indicating the book and page number of the homeowners association covenants,
conditions and restrictions;
iii. Responsibilities for maintenance of private streets, open space, recreation facilities,
and other common areas shall be specified;
iv. Responsibilities for exterior maintenance of attached dwelling units shall be specified;
and
v.The Association shall be authorized to rebuild damaged or destroyed portions of
structures containing attached dwelling units when the individual owner fails to do so.
3. Open Space
a. Please provide an additional access easement to the new open space, either between lots 6/7
or 5 /6.
b. What is the intent of the open space behind the lots? Usability will be an issue with this if its
included in the calculation for the active recreation space.
c. Please label the open space areas. All new residential subdivisions shall provide recreation
space in the amount of 0.03 acres per dwelling unit within the subdivision. 50% of the required
Legacy Lading - TRC Review Page | 3
recreation area shall be designated for passive recreation and 50% of the required recreation
area shall be designated for active.
4. Please supply a tree inventory plan with the size and the type of tree. Staff would ask for you to retain
and many trees as possible and if mitigation is required we would suggest planting the trees between
the existing adjacent 3202 and 3208 Reminisce Rd to provide a buffer.
Fire Services, Raymond Griswold (910-798-7448)
1. I have visited this site and reviewed the plans. This project meets County Fire Services expectations.

NHC Engineering , Phill Belvilaqua (910-798-7072)
1. A New Hanover County Authorization-to-Construct is required. Stormwater control measures are
required to maintain the pre-development runoff rate for the 2-, 10- and 25-yr storms. Analysis for the
100-yr storm is required to verify that no buildings are flooded.
2. The apparent drainage outlet is to the Reminisce Rd. right-of-way.
3. On-site collection systems are required to be designed for the 25-yr storm and analyzed for the 100-yr
storm.
4. Overland flow is directed to this property from the northwest. Any off-site drainage is required to be
delineated and conveyed through the site in accordance with NHC standards. Verify that proposed lot
grades do not impede the flow of off-site water.

NCDOT, Nick Drees (910-398-9100)
1. A NCDOT Driveway Permit is required. Submit a plan in accordance with pages 14 and 15 of the Policy on
Street and Driveway Access to North Carolina Highways to include access locations within 500’ of the
proposed access on both sides of the State road. Submit to the local NCDOT District Engineer’s Office.
2. A NCDOT Encroachment Agreement is required for any utility connections or installation within NCDOT
right-of-way. Exceptions granted for short side taps that will require no pavement cut or excavation within
the 1:1 slope as it relates to existing edge of pavement.
3. If the developer anticipates adding or petitioning for addition of this subdivision to the state system, all
roads/streets shall be designed and constructed in conformance with the current North Carolina
Department of Transportation Subdivision Roads Minimum Construction Standards. Contact the District
Engineers office with regards to submittals, telephone 910.398.9100.
4. Developer shall submit subdivision plans to the North Carolina Department of Transportation for review,
unless it is a private community.
5. Provide stormwater calculations for the proposed site, for submittal to the Hydraulics Unit.
6. A 50’ right-of-way width is acceptable for residential subdivision roads (see p. 26 of the North Carolina
Department of Transportation Subdivision Roads Minimum Construction Standards).
re-review
1. They will need to submit the plans for this along with hydraulic calculations prior to any design
approval, they can email that directly to me. I have attached a checklist to help make sure they meet
the design criteria. It appears that the cul-da-sac doesn’t meet the standards currently without digging
to deep into it.
DCM, Courtney Spears, (910-796-7426)
1. This project does not appear to be located in a CAMA AEC and therefore a CAMA permit would not be
required.
New Hanover County Schools, Mark Clawson (910-254-4084)
1. Students located on this proposed street would need to walk to the corner of Reminisce and Rock Hill in
order to use NHCS bus transportation.
Planning (Addressing), John Townsend (910-798-7443)
1. Please work with addressing to modify the suffix of the street to a Place (Pl) or Court (Ct) considering
this will convert Dorsey Lane into a cul-de-sac.
