Conditional Zoning District Considerations The Conditional Zoning District procedure is established to address situations where a particular land use would be consistent with the New Hanover County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the objectives outlined in the Unified Development Ordinance and where only a specific use or uses is proposed. The procedure is intended primarily for use with transitions between zoning districts of dissimilar character where a particular use or uses, with restrictive conditions to safeguard adjacent land uses, can create a more orderly transition benefiting all affected parties and the community at-large. The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Conditional Zoning district meets the following criteria. 1.How would the requested change be consistent with the County’s policies for growth and development, as described in the 2016 Comprehensive Plan, applicable small area plans, etc. Based on KSF 14,400 s.f.+/- Recreation Center (ITE 492) / 3,600 s.f.+/- Pet Supply (ITE 866) 20 + 0 = 20 51 + 12 = 63 The policies for growth and development encourage continued efforts to maintain existing businesses, and attract new ones. The property is along a commercial corridor where business activities and services are most convenient to the surrounding residential communities. Sustainability of the County depends on sensible in-fill and maximizing land use. Page 4 of 6 Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 12-2020 2.How would the requested Conditional Zoning district be consistent with the property’s classification on the 2016 Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map. 3. What significant neighborhood changes have occurred to make the original zoning inappropriate, or how is the land involved unsuitable for the uses permitted under the existing zoning? The tract is identified in the Comprehensive Land Use Plan as a "Community Mixed-Use" place-type.The plan suggests higher densities or more intensive uses to support the sourrounding residentialneighborhoods. The proposed project is an acceptable transition use along the busy road corridor. The subject property was zoned as a conditional use district only as a place-holder for futuredevelopment. The current restriction on use is for the property to remain vacant. Modifying the existing business zone for a specific Conditional District, will allow sensible use of the property,and still protect adjacent properties with the required development standards and mitigation ofimpacts.
