Conditional Zoning District Considerations The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be consistent with the policy guidance of the 2016 New Hanover County Comprehensive Plan, zoning considerations, and technical review. Conditional rezonings are intended to provide orderly transitions between different zoning districts or land uses where additional conditions and district limitations may safeguard adjacent land uses benefiting all parties and the community at large. The application must include an explanation of how the proposed Conditional Zoning district meets the following criteria. (include references and attachments to plans where applicable). 1. How would the requested change be consistent with New Hanover County’s policies for growth and development, as described in the New Hanover County Comprehensive Plan or other applicable, adopted plans? 2. How would the requested Conditional Zoning district be consistent with the property’s classification on the Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map? Page 5 of 8 Conditional Rezoning Application – Updated 10-2025 3. What significant neighborhood changes have occurred that may make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning? Page 6 of 8 Conditional Rezoning Application – Updated 10-2025 7. Application Requirements Staff use the following checklist to determine if the application is complete.

CHR Properties, L.L.C. and Wrightsboro Business Park, L.L.C. are owners of the subject properties. The approximately 8.3-acre tract is currently split-zoned Airport Residential (AR) and Regional Business (B-2). The proposed rezone would be for a Conditional Regional Business District (CZD/B-2). The proposal is to expand the existing business park with additional “flex” building space, associated parking and stormwater management. A preliminary site layout is attached. Your property is located in the proximity, within a 500’ perimeter of the lot boundary. The meeting is an opportunity for further explanation of the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning project improvements, benefits and impacts. A Conditional Zoning District in New Hanover County allows particular uses to be established only in accordance with specific standards and conditions pertaining to each individual development project & rezoning petition. Essentially, this means that only the specific use(s) and the proposed site improvements of an approved petition can be developed. The meeting will be held on Tuesday, January 27th, 6:00 p.m., in the Markraft Cabinet building, 2705 Castle Creek Lane. If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me at telephone # 910-620-2374, or email cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions. We appreciate your interest in the project and believe that this project will be a good addition of services for the area.
