The County’s Technical Review Committee met once in September. Three (3) projects were
reviewed.
Village at Motts Landing: Phase 1B (Performance Site Plan)
The Village at Motts Landing is located in the southern portion of our jurisdiction, more
specifically on the north side of Sanders Road. The area is classified Urban on the adopted 2006
Land Use Plan. The Urban classification provides for continued intensive development and
redevelopment of existing urban areas. The developer for the project submitted a twelve (12)

2005. The proposed residential units will be supported by private streets with public sewer and
private water.
No TIA was required for the project.
In a vote of 4-0, the TRC approved the Village at Motts Landing ; Phase 1B for all twelve (12)
units with the following conditions:
1) An updated water capacity letter be submitted prior to final plat approval
supporting the twelve units,
2) No gates, traffic calming devices, or on-street parking be permitted and
3) A written proposal to create a sidewalk from the Village at Motts Landing entrance
with Sanders Road to Bellamy Elementary School be finalized prior to the next
phase of the project. Discussion pertaining to the specific sidewalk location should
include representatives from the school system, NCDOT, Planning, and the WMPO.
Maple Ridge (Performance Site Plan)
Maple Ridge is located near the northeastern portion of our jurisdiction, more specifically near
West Bay Estates subdivision off Market Street. The area is classified as Wetland Resource
Protection on the adopted 2006 Land Use Plan. This Resource Protecti on subclass is utilized to
mitigate loss of wetland areas. The developer for the project proposed a 47 residential lot
division with private streets and public water and sewer. No TIA was required for the project.
In a vote of 4-0, the TRC approved Maple Ridge for 47 lots. No significant conditions were
placed on the plan.

also proposed. With this being a sketch design, no scoping to determine TIA for road
improvements was discussed. The Military Cut-Off Extension/Bypass corridor bisects the
project.
In a vote of 4-0, the TRC denied the Grathmore sketch plan based on the plan being located
