6-2013-JUNE 2013 TRC REPORTTECHNICAL REVIEW COMMITTEE REPORT: JUNE, 2013
The County’s Technical Review Committee met once during the month of June and
reviewed/discussed two (2) projects.
Hanover Reserve (Performance Plan)
Hanover Reserve is located in the northeastern portion of the County near Murrayville Road and is
classified as Urban and Wetland Resource Protection on the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. The petitioner
for the project requested preliminary site plan approval for 86 residential lots to be served by public
water and sewer. Access to the property would be thru Quail Woods Road (public) and Rabbit Hollow
Drive (public). Most of the proposed roads within the project are designated as private.
In a vote of 5‐0, the TRC approved Hanover Reserve for 86 residential lots with the following conditions:
1) Roads within the project will be designated as public. Every effort will be made to meet
NCDOT’s technical standards for public roads with eventual acceptance onto their road
maintenance system. In the event the roads don’t meet technical standards, a NCDOT
letter must be submitted to the Planning and Inspections Department outlining the reasons
why the standards can’t be met.
2) Olde Bay Circle and Smith Creek Drive are street name duplications. Unduplicated street
names will need to be submitted to the Planning and Inspections Department for review
and approval.
3) No obstructions, traffic calming devices or gates will be permitted within the development.
4) Storm water and erosion control plans will be reviewed during the construction plan phase
of the project.
5) Water and sewer capacity will need to be phased. The well site located near the project will
need to be finalized with the CFPUA.
6) Applicable local, State, and Federal regulations.
Middle Sound Village (EDZD Exceptional Design Plan)
Middle Sound Village is located in Ogden off Market Street on Middle Sound Loop Road and is classified
as Watershed Resource Protection on the 2006 CAMA Land Use Plan. In August, 2010, the Board of New
Hanover County Commissioners approved the rezoning of 9.93 acres from R‐15 Residential to EDZD
Exceptional Design Zoning District for no more than 47 lots. The petitioner for the project requested
final plan approval for 45 residential lots in accordance with Section 54.1‐9 of the County’s Zoning
Ordinance.
The project will be served by public water and sewer with one entrance off Middle Sound Loop Road.
Internal access serving the 45 lots will be private.
Based on the fact that the petitioner was not present at the TRC meeting along with several EDZD
elements missing from the site plan, the TRC “continued” the Middle Sound Village project until the
elements were completed. The vote was 5‐0.
** The next regular meeting of the TRC will be July 10, 2013. Two (2) items are slated to be on the
agenda. **
