Traffic Impact Please provide the estimated number of trips generated for the proposed use(s) based off the most recent version of the Institute of Traffic Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual. A Traffic Impact Analysis (TIA) must be completed for all proposed developments that generate more than 100 peak hour trips, and the TIA must be included with this application. ITE Land Use: Trip Generation Use and Variable (gross floor area, dwelling units, etc.) AM Peak Hour Trips: PM Peak Hour Trips: 6. 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. Mid-Rise / Multi-family Housing (ITE 221) per Dwelling Unit @ 72 22 28 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? The Comprehensive Plan was developed to set the general direction for future growth and re-development across the County, and identifies the corridor along Carolina Beach Road as a Community Mixed-Use place-type. Higher densities of residential development are appropriate, based on direct access to a major thoroughfare road, and to serve as transitions between the busy highway corridor and less dense residential communities beyond. The limited density allowance for the R-15 zoning district is no longer supported when considering the housing deficit of the County for the next ten years. A housing needs assessment was completed, and adopted by the Board, showing that this area was lacking a renter share of households, in general. Multi-family rental, specifically, is totally lacking. The closest apartment complex is up on Sanders Road, and there is no other facility in the southern portion of the County. The study also reported that this area was an older population (55+) census block. Rental communities, such as the project proposed, provide an alternative housing product for residents. Aged residents might be attracted to the safety & security of a managed community with amenities. Pleasure Island service industry workers could appreciate the closer proximity to their jobs.

That proposal was submitted to the County, and proceeded through the rezoning process to a public hearing by the Planning Board. The petition was eventually withdrawn before hearing by the Commissioners. In addition to the common questions about traffic & stormwater impacts – both of which are governed by extensive regulations and permitting – surrounding residents were averse to the increased housing density. Comments offered by the Board included issues with the overall scale and height of the proposed building. In response to that input, the site plan has been revised for a more conventional multi‐family community. The density has been reduced, albeit slightly, but proposed to be spread out among smaller buildings. There are 12 units within each 3‐story structure, for a total of 72 rental homes. An exhibit of the current project layout is attached. The Owner is re‐submitting for a Conditional Zoning District, a zoning designation that allows only a particular use, density, layout, etc. to be established pertaining to each individual development. Since the general premise of the project has not changed, we are providing everyone with this new layout, and rather than scheduling a subsequent meeting, we would welcome you to contact me at telephone # 910‐620‐2374, or email cwolf@lobodemar.biz with comments and/or questions. I would also be happy to meet with anyone who asks. The County will advertise for the next Planning Board hearing, which we hope to be scheduled for Thursday, March 2nd. We appreciate your interest in the project and continue to believe that this new community will provide a housing alternative missing in the southern portion of the County, be good neighbor and be an asset to the community. REPORT OF COMMUNITY MEETING REQUIRED BY NEW HANOVER COUNTY ZONING ORIDINANCE FOR CONDITIONAL DISTRICT REZONINGS Project Name: Palm Grove Apartments – Carolina (6634 Carolina Beach Road) Proposed Zoning: R-15 to (CZD) RMF-M (Previously petitioned as Z22-18) A meeting was held concerning the original petition, Z-22-18, on Tuesday, August 2, 2022, 6:00 p.m.; at the Best Western Plus – Wilmington, 5600 Carolina Beach Road. The plan presented at that time was a single, 4-story building with 78 units, and parking on the ground floor of the structure. The persons in attendance at the meeting are on the attached sign-in list. Attendees were primarily from the Lords Creek community. A brief presentation was given on the housing deficit in the County, and the recommendations of the Comprehensive Land Use Plan for higher density of development along busy highway corridors like Carolina Beach Road. The layout of the plan was shown to address how the building height would be mitigated by extended setbacks, fences & vegetated buffer yards. Stormwater management requirements were explained, and a pond shown. The group as a whole voiced their adamant opposition to development of this tract with anything other than single-family housing. Most residents also commented that they did not want any density of multi-family housing in the southern portion of the County. A rezoning submittal was subsequently made with a plan that was substantially the same as what was discussed, except that the setback was increased. The petition was processed by staff, and brought to public hearing by the Planning Board at their December meeting. Several members of the public spoke in opposition to the rezoning, specifically addressed no added density and no multi-family housing. The Board recommended denial. The petition was ultimately withdrawn before public hearing by the Board of Commissioners. Project Name: Palm Grove Apartments – Carolina (6634 Carolina Beach Road) Proposed Zoning: R-15 to (CZD) RMF-M (Submitted February 1, 2023) The property owner has opted to re-submit for a Conditional District, but with a slightly reduced density, and a substantially different site plan. The proposed plan includes six (6), 3-story, 12-unit buildings surrounding a courtyard, for a total of 72 units. Parking surrounds the buildings, which provides for the expanded setback from adjacent properties of over seventy (70) feet. Stormwater management continues to be proposed by a pond. 2 A written notice of the new project proposal with the intent of a new rezoning petition and an exhibit of the new plan was given to the adjacent property owners set forth on the attached list by first class mail, and provided to the Planning Department for notice of the Sunshine List on January 18, 2023. A copy of that written notice and site layout are attached. The mailing and County posting provided the community with updated information about the modified project, and means & opportunity were proffered to share comments and concerns, resolve conflicts or outstanding issues – where possible. No responses were received nor contacts made between the project information mailing / County posting and the February 1st submittal. It is the developer’s belief that a subsequent in-person meeting was not necessary. The current proposal continues to be for an (CZD) RMF-M zoning district, and based on comments of opposition during both the original community information meeting and at the public hearing, it is unlikely that the dialogue would change. As stated in the letter, I was and remain open to addressing any comments or questions should interested parties reach out, but there have been none. The layout has been modified in response to both staff review and the comments and recommendations of the Planning Board concerning building height and mass. The density has been decreased, but the few extra units beyond the Comp Plan guideline are based on project symmetry and economy of construction.
