Subject: 3419 Castle Hayne Road– Insea Marine - TRC Review
Technical Review Committee (TRC) General Information
The TRC is a staff-level group of local government officials that reviews projects for compliance with
the local regulations administered by each respective review agency. Voluntarily participating state
agencies may also provide comments. And general information and non-binding recommendations
about the site may also be provided by government agencies.
The TRC meetings are considered staff meetings and are not public hearings. The TRC meeting is an
opportunity for applicants to speak with county staff and any voluntarily participating state or federal
agencies about the review comments they have been provided.
No voting is involved in the TRC process, and no final approvals or denials are made at the TRC
meetings. Following the TRC meeting, applicants are responsible for updating their plans to address
review comments. Those revised plans need to be resubmitted to the assigned case planner. The case
planner will facilitate additional reviews until all comments have been addressed, and the necessary
departments have stated the plans comply with the applicable minimum requirements for
development.
Following any future TRC approval, the project is required to obtain additional permits to include a
zoning compliance permit for the site. Applicants are also responsible for coordinating with state and
federal agencies for compliance with any additional requirements. Any activity on the property that is
not approved as part of the TRC review and zoning compliance permit will be considered a violation
of the UDO and subject to enforcement action under Article 12 Violations and Enforcement.
The following comments have been received for the November 5th, 2025, TRC meeting. Additional
comments may be made upon further review of subsequent revisions.

Compliance with local UDO requirements
1. General Comments
a. Zoning district is CZD B-2
b. This project is associated with rezoning case Z25-12 and was approved with the
following conditions. Please add these conditions to the site plan.
i. The setbacks as shown on the concept plan must remain.
ii. A 6-foot-high screening fence shall be required along the northern boundary
of the gravel service yard as shown on the concept plan.
iii. No development or outdoor storage shall occur within the existing utility
easement as shown on the concept plan. The easement shall constitute an
additional spatial buffer and the required transitional buffer shall be installed
along the northern portion of the easement if the easement-holder does not
permit landscaping inside the easement.
iv. The permitted uses are limited to Contactor Office for the main building and
Warehousing for the two accessory buildings.
c. As stated in the application the intended use is Contractor Office and Warehousing.
The Unified Development Ordinance (UDO) defines the uses as
i. Contractor Office: An establishment primarily engaged in the day-to-day
administrative and clerical services for businesses providing contracted
services, such as building contractors, heating and air conditioning (HVAC)
repair, landscaping and janitorial services, etc., that require outside and/or
fleet storage. The use may include some on-site repair and material
preparation work.
ii. Warehousing: The storing of goods, wares, and merchandise within an
enclosed building, whether for the owners or others. There is little on-site sales
activity with the customer present. Uses include: cold storage facilities
(including frozen food lockers); distribution warehouses (used primarily for
temporary storage pending distribution in response to customer orders);
storage warehouses (used for storage by retail stores such as furniture and
appliance stores); warehouse storerooms; or similar uses.

UDO and use specific requirements of the specified land use. Any other activity that
might occur on the property beyond the definition above should be noted on the
application and site plan for additional review and comment.
e. Plans note a Duke easement on this property. Please confirm with Duke Energy to get
Duke Energy approval for this site plan before proceeding with any other permits.
2. UDO Section 5.1, Parking and Loading
a. The calculation for parking is provided on the site plan. However, since the main
building will be split between contractor office and workshop space, please show the
square footage for each use and show which areas will be used for each use.
3. UDO Section 5.2, Traffic, Access and Connectivity
a. Please note that no building permit for any structure shall be issued which requires
NCDOT approval for a Driveway Permit until NCDOT has issued the permit approval.
Evidence of approval shall accompany the application for building permit.
b. The WMPO’s estimated AM and PM traffic generation is provided on the site plan.
Thank you.
4. UDO Section 5.3, Tree Retention
a. Tree retention standards are included on the plan. A tree removal permit has been
submitted, thank you. I will be in touch with next steps.
b. For the required mitigation of the removed significant trees, are you planning to
replace the lost inches, pay the fee, or a combination of both?
c. Note: Land disturbance permits can be issued by county Engineering before a Tree
Removal Permit is approved by Planning. However, any trees removed before the Tree
Removal Permit is issued may result in enforcement action under Section 5.3.2 of the
Unified Development Ordinance to include prohibiting any development of the site for
3 to 5 years.
5. UDO Section 5.4, Landscaping and Buffering
a. Just a reminder that replacement inches for removed significant trees cannot be used
in required landscaping.
b. Per the conditions of this rezoning, a 6-foot-high screening fence shall be required

reviewed by the county for compliance with Section 5.6 of the UDO for standards at

the primary building or use. Any approvals granted by the TRC for the site design is
not an approval for the ultimate size or placement of the sign.

Engineering Studies
The applicant may be required by the District Engineer to submit studies based on, but not limited to, the parameters outlined
herein. If study requirements of the local government agency are more restrictive than the NCDOT requirements, then local
government requirements will govern. However, this does not imply that the NCDOT is obligated to approve entrance designs
that are too constrictive to allow smooth and safe traffic flow. All studies including, but not limited to, Traffic Impact Analyses
(TIA), traffic signal studies, and drainage studies, must be prepared under the direct charge of and sealed by a North Carolina
licensed Professional Engineer.
