If changes are made to the proposed site driveways and/or use, the current trip distribution may
need to be modified and would require a revised Traffic Impact Analysis to be submitted for
review by the NCDOT, WMPO, and New Hanover County. This approval would become null and
void.
The applicant is required to obtain all applicable New Hanover County and NCDOT permits for
access to the road network. All applicable NCDOT and New Hanover County technical standards
and policies shall apply.
