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. 52 85 Page 4 of 6 Conditional Zoning District Application – Updated 02-2022 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?

A copy of the written notice is also attached. The meeting was held at the following time and place: Tuesday, October 11th, 6:00 p.m.; Ogden Park Picnic Shelter #2. The persons in attendance at the meeting were: Reference attached sign-in List The following issues were discussed at the meeting: A brief synopsis was given of the proposed development changes compared to the previous commercial development on the Market Street frontage only. Primary topics of conversation were proposed uses, traffic on Raintree Road, and particularly existing drainage issues. It was explained that the same improvements required by the previous Traffic Impact Analysis would be made for this project. Also, that storm drainage improvements, including not only on-site management of runoff from project surfaces, but other mitigation features should assist in remedying existing flooding problems. Additional information was provided, as requested, on buffering, tree preservation, and mitigation. As a result of the meeting, the following changes were made to the rezoning petition: None Date: October 31, 2018 Applicant: Design Solutions By: Cindee Wolf 1 cwolf@lobodemar.biz From:cwolf@lobodemar.biz Sent:Monday, October 17, 2022 11:37 AM To:'Cindy Dunigan' Subject:RE: Bailey Shoppes Attachments:2018 Approved Plan.pdf; Bailey Shoppes Exhibit.pdf; Elevs Exhibit.pdf; Johnny Williams Survey Update May2021.pdf; Tree Retention Regs.pdf; Construction Limits Exhibit.pdf Cindy,  Sorry for the email delivery error, but I did receive this.    The exhibits I had the other evening are attached – including the existing approved plan that can be constructed  whether the proposed modification moves forward or not.  My purpose in mentioning it is with that scenario, the back lot could be developed for any permitted use in the Code.  It  is not currently controlled by a “conditional” district overlay.  The modification proposal would include that parcel into  the overall project boundary and provide some surety of development controls.    I’ve answered your questions below.  Sometimes explanations are much easier in conversation.  Don’t hesitate to call if  you have other questions or need further clarification.     From: Cindy Dunigan <weepingwilowe@gmail.com>   Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2022 2:01 PM  To: cwolf@lobodemar.biz; Cindy Dunigan <weepingwilowe@gmail.com>  Subject: Bailey Shoppes    Hi Cindy ‐    Thank you for your time on October 11th at Ogden Park to discuss the Bailey Shops & Offices project.    One of my neighbors picked up some drawings(s) that night...can you send me what you have please?    I have a couple questions:    1. Why did the developer decide to change from 2 buildings to 1?                  The initial plan was substantially still a single building.  There was just a pedestrian walkway between the  “structures.”    2. If they decide to do condo's will they be rentals or sold?                  There would potentially be enough floor area for a maximum of twelve (12) 2‐bedroom “condominiums” on  the top floor – IF the developer found that residential tenants were interested.  To the best of my knowledge, the  Developer would maintain ownership of the entire building.  The units, whether commercial, office or residential,  would be rented.   3. The Market Street road work has started at Mendenhal for the UTurn but there doesn't' look like a dedicated lane  from the UTurn to Bump Along.  Didn't you mention that would be the case?                  The NCDOT improvement project does not include a right‐turn lane into Bumpalong Road.  It will be the  responsibility of this developer to install that full lane from the u‐turnaround at Mendenhall to Bumpalong – at his  cost – prior to occupancy of this project being issued.  Likewise, the widening & pavement improvements to  Bumpalong and the connection to Raintree would need to be in‐place prior to actual use of this property.  4. When will the tree mitigation be done?  2                 I have reviewed the actual field survey of the current conditions, and attached a printout for you.  Also  attached is the County regulation for tree retention.  Mitigation is required only for “significant” trees that need to be  removed for “essential site improvements.”  Other than a couple of large‐trunk Pines, removal of the “regulated”  trees within the rear parking area is permitted.   The rear of the parking area is over 40’ from the rear boundary  line.  No tree removal (of any size tree) will be permitted within the first 20’ – considered “buffer.”  If there is still  visibility into the site , then the existing vegetation has to be supplemented with new evergreen shrubs that will  screen to a height of at least six (6) feet.  Additional trees in the next 20’ would only be removed if necessary for  grading the parking pad.  Before construction begins, tree protection fencing has to be installed around the limits of  disturbance.  This protects natural areas that are committed for preservation – including the rear buffer.  Mitigation  of the Pines would be either planting or payment‐in‐lieu of approximately sixty (60) new trees – IN ADDITION TO – all  trees normally required for the landscape regulations: streetyard, buffer, parking shading & foundation plantings.  All  new plantings would not be required until completion of construction and request for occupancy.                           Thanks again,  Cindy Dunigan  129 Bump Along Rd, Wilmington, NC 28411  614‐361‐8400    5-22 New Hanover County, NC | Unified Development Ordinance 5.3.4. TREE RETENTION STANDARDS A. Identification of Regulated Trees Three types of trees are regulated or protected by this section. They are Documented Trees, Significant Trees, and Specimen Trees. This categorization of trees is based on the tree species and existing minimum Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) of the trees. Documented Trees, Significant Trees, and Specimen Trees regulated or protected by this section are identified in Table 5.3.4.A: Regulated Trees. Table 5.3.4.A: Regulated Trees Regulated Tree Type Minimum Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) Documented Trees Dogwoods and American Hollies 4 inches Long Leaf Pine, Pond Cypress, Bald Cypress, and Hardwoods* 8 inches Other Conifers 12 inches Significant Trees Dogwoods, Magnolias, Native Flowering Trees, and American Hollies 8 inches Long Leaf Pine, Pond Cypress, Bald Cypress, and Hardwoods* 18 inches Other Conifers 24 inches Specimen Trees Live Oaks, Pond Cypress, and Bald Cypress 36 inches * Only includes Sweetgums when they are located within required vegetative buffer areas or required open space set-asides B. The Planning Director may permit or require a reduction in required street yards, landscape islands, foundation plantings, setbacks, or other dimensional, parking, or landscaping standards for the purpose of retaining significant or specimen trees. C. A minimum of 15 trees at least two inches DBH or two caliper inches, as applicable, shall be retained or planted on a parcel where development occurs in accordance with Section 5.4, Landscaping and Buffering. D. Regulated trees within a 50-foot perimeter of the property must be retained and protected during non-exempt tree harvests. All significant trees shall be retained. E. If existing trees and shrubs on the site where a transitional buffer is required meets at least 50 percent of the required opacity standards, then those trees and shrubs shall be retained for use in buffering and supplemented as needed with plantings, fences, and/or berms to meet the required standards of Section 5.4.3, Transitional

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.
