3.Zoning Map Amendment Considerations
Requests for general rezonings do not consider a particular land use but rather all of the uses permitted in the
requested zoning district for the subject property. Rezoning requests must be consistent with the New Hanover
County 2016 Comprehensive Plan and the Unified Development Ordinance. Zoning Map amendments reclassify
the land that is subject of the application to the requested zoning district classification(s) and subjects it to the
development regulations applicable to the district(s).
The applicant must explain, with reference to attached plans (where applicable), how the proposed Zoning Map
amendment meets the following criteria. (attach additional pages if necessary)
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.?
2.How would the requested zoning change be consistent with the property’s classification on the 2016
Most of the existing and surrounding parcels consists of single family, currently zoned R15, with a mixture of a
few of the parcels zoned at B-2. The requested rezoning change would enhance growth and development by
creating a livable, built community which will preserve the existing neighborhood character and quality of life
as demand in the New Hanover County SeaBreeze area increases.
R-7 Residential
Comprehensive Plan’s Future Land Use Map?
General Residential is a classification on the 2016 Comprehensive Plan's future land map which is consistent with
what is being proposed. Conservation areas will be preserved and will not be affected by this zoning request.

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?
4.How will this zoning change serve the public interest?
Although R-15 is a viable land use for residential development of single family homes, R-7 will benefit the
diminishing population of the Seabreeze community more and provide for increased population densities to
facilitate high quality affordable housing and a greater range of lifestyles and income levels.
A zoning change in the SeaBreeze community will potentially attract a greater range of income levels and
increase accessibility to employment, transportation and shopping. The revitalization may further encourage
additional investments and improvements to the community, ultimately revitalizing the SeaBreeze community
and adjacent neighborhoods.
