Re: Bailey Shoppes & Offices – 7887 Market Street
A commercial project was approved for this tract back in April, 2018, but construction has been
pending completion of the NCDOT improvements to Market Street. With that being closer, my clients
are interested in proceeding with a modified plan for the project. This proposal would require a
Conditional Zoning District (CZD) re‐approval from New Hanover County.
A Conditional Zoning District allows particular uses to be established only in accordance with specific
standards and conditions pertaining to each individual development project. Essentially, this means
that only that use(s), structure and layout of an approved proposal can be developed. An exhibit of the
updated project layout is enclosed.
Specific points of change include the elimination of any drive‐thru use, adding a 3rd story, and the
improvement of the previously non‐designated rear lot as a parking area. As to vehicular trip
generation, these changes will actually reduce it from the previous proposal, but the recommended
adjacent road improvements would still be completed.
A meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 11th, 6:00 p.m., at Picnic Shelter #2, Ogden Park Drive
(north side of the lake adjacent to the Dog Park). It will provide an opportunity for further explanation
of the proposal and for questions to be answered concerning project improvements, benefits and
impacts. If you cannot attend, you are also welcome to contact me at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or
email cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions.
We appreciate your interest in the project, look forward to being an asset to the community.
