Report of Community Meeting for New Leaf Landing
Proposed Conditional Rezoning by Fast Tracts Wilmington, LLC
New Hanover County Parcel R02500-002-003-000
(Approx. 29 acres at 312 Hermitage Road)
A community meeting was held by the applicant to discuss the New Leaf Landing proposal with
interested neighbors. Notice of the meeting was mailed to all property owners located within
500 feet of the subject site as listed on the New Hanover County tax records. The meeting
was held on December 16, 2021 at 12:00pm at the subject site.
On behalf of the applicant, Fast Tracts Wilmington, LLC, the following people were in
attendance: Andy Etters with Fast Tracts Wilmington, LLC, and Allison Engebretson and Brad
Schuler with Paramounte Engineering, Inc.
In addition to the below summary of the meeting, the following items are attached:
1. A list of the adjacent property owners to whom written notice was mailed;
2. A copy of the written notice; and
3. A list of the parties who attended the meeting.
The following issues were discussed at the meeting:
• Project Overview
o Response: The proposed development will consist of flex space buildings and a
nursery/wholesale landscape supply business.
o The flex space buildings will consist mostly of warehousing space with a small
portion of the buildings reserved for office space in the front. The architectural
design of the buildings has not been finalized at this time allowing for the
buildings to be initially customized for the tenants.
o The site has been designed to allow for truck access and loading areas. The
proposed flex space buildings will either have loading docks or access to shared
loading areas.
o The nursery/wholesale landscape supply business is already in operation on the
site.
o The development will be served by public water and private septic systems.
o The proposed stormwater pond is located on the western portion of the site closer
to existing housing.
o The project will be developed in phases.

• Traffic
o Access to the site from Castle Hayne Road is provided by two NCDOT-maintained
roads – Hermitage Road and Crowatan Road.
o A Traffic Impact Analysis for the proposal has been completed and approved the
WMPO and NCDOT. Roadway improvements required for the project include
the installation of a right-turn lane on Hermitage Road at Castle Hayne Road, and
the installation of a left-turn land on Castle Hayne Road at Crowatan Road.
o The project includes two driveways on Hermitage Road.
• Stormwater/Sedimentation Control
o Neighbors were concerned that the proposed stormwater pond will contribute to
flooding in the area. One neighbor was particularly concerned about the direction
of the stormwater outfall.
o The proposed stormwater facilities for the project must be designed and
constructed in accordance with State and New Hanover County requirements. The
stormwater system will outfall into the natural site outlet.
o Temporary silt fencing will be installed during construction activities to help ensure
sediment/debris is not deposited in the existing ditches on the site.

RE: Hermitage Road Development – Community Meeting for a Conditional Rezoning
Request by Fast Tracts Wilmington, LLC
Paramounte Engineering, Inc. and Fast Tracts Wilmington, LLC, invite you to attend a
community meeting to discuss the Hermitage Road Development. You are receiving this
invitation because New Hanover County GIS records indicate you own property adjacent to the
land proposed to be rezoned, and we want to share our proposed plans with you.
The subject property consists of approximately ±29.39 acres of land located on Hermitage Road.
The proposed conditional rezoning request changes the zoning to commercial services district to
allow for flex space/warehouses, offices, and a nursery. Please reference the enclosed conceptual
site plan for more information and join us for an informal meeting to discuss the plan on
Thursday, December 16, 2021, from 12:00-1:00pm on the project site. The location of the
meeting is next to the existing driveway on the property and is highlighted on the map below:
