6. Criteria Required for Approval of a Special Use Permit
A use designated as a special use in a particular zoning district is a use that may be appropriate in the district, but
because of its nature, extent, and external impacts, requires special consideration of its location, design, and methods
of operation before it can be deemed appropriate in the district and compatible with its surroundings. The purpose is
to establish a uniform mechanism for the review of special uses to ensure they are appropriate for the location and
zoning district where they are proposed.
For each of the four required conclusions listed below, include or attach a statement that explains how any existing
conditions, proposed development features, or other relevant facts would allow the Board of County Commissioners to
reach the required conclusion, and attach any additional documents or materials that provide supporting factual
evidence. The considerations listed under each required conclusion are simply those suggested to help the applicant
understand what may be considered in determining whether a required conclusion can be met. Any additional
considerations potentially raised by the proposed use or development should be addressed.
1. The use will not materially endanger the public health or safety if located where proposed and approved.
Considerations:
• Traffic conditions in the vicinity, including the effect of additional traffic on streets and street intersections, and
sight lines at street intersections with curb cuts;
• Provision of services and utilities, including sewer, water, electrical, garbage collections, fire protection;
• Soil erosion and sedimentation;
• Protection of public, community, or private water supplies, including possible adverse effects on surface waters
or groundwater; or
• Anticipated air discharges, including possible adverse effects on air quality.

2. The use meets all required conditions and specifications of the Unified Development Ordinance.
3. The use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property, or that the use is a public
necessity.
Considerations:
• The relationship of the proposed use and the character of development to surrounding uses and development,
including possible conflicts between them and how these conflicts will be resolved (i.e. buffers, hours of
operation, etc.).
• Whether the proposed development is so necessary to the public health, safety, and general welfare of the
community or County as a whole as to justify it regardless of its impact on the value of adjoining property.

4. The location and character of the use if developed according to the plan as submitted and approved will be in
harmony with the area in which it is to be located and in general conformity with the New Hanover County
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
Considerations:
• The relationship of the proposed use and the character of development to surrounding uses and development,
including possible conflicts between them and how these conflicts will be resolved (i.e. buffers, hours of
operation, etc.).
• Consistency with the Comprehensive Plan’s goals, objectives for the various planning areas, its definitions of
the various land use classifications and activity centers, and its locational standards.
