New Hanover County Fire Services is requesting application submission approval for three programs. The first program would provide our firefighters with Personal Protective Equipment specially designed for Wildland firefighting. This equipment is less bulky and lighter weight than the standard structural Personal Protective Equipment which reduces staff fatigue and dehydration. This equipment would allow for a safer, more efficient response to these type of Wildland incidents. This grant would provide our department approximately 75 sets of gear at $238.00 dollars each. Total program cost of $17,850.00. The second program would provide Urban Search and Rescue Technician level training for 15 firefighters to enable them to respond to rescue responses as part of a Type II USAR Task Team. We currently have enough trained personnel to staff less than 25% of these responses. These trained firefighters would return our USAR staffing to an acceptable level. The 14 day training for 15 people would be $1025.00 / $15,375.00 total each and shift coverage for these personnel while attending training would be $2117.00 each person / $31,755.00. Total program cost of $47,130.00. The third program would would provide NFPA 1021 Officer Level II training and certification that is accredited by International Fire Service Accreditation Council (IFSAC) to 25 our of officers at a contracted cost of $12,000.00. This training will be held locally and will have minimal impact on shift personnel. Total program cost of $12,000.00. The total grant request is for $76,980. The grant requires an 80/20 split grant. The AFG Grant would provide $61,584.00. Matching funds required by department of $15,396.00 are budgeted in the FY08-09 department Budget. RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: Approve submission of the 2008 Assistance to Firefighters Grant Operations and Safety Grant Application. FUNDING SOURCE: Are funds available in the current budget for the full amount required for this purpose? Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 3-0 yes Above action will result in: New Position(s) Position(s) Modification Or Change No Change in Position(s) Explanation: Matching grant funds of $15,396.00 were included in the FY08-09 Budget.

Consistent with the purposes and intent of the Transition land classification and the associated land use policies adopted in the 2006 land use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to allow a broad range of commercial uses in this location near at the New Hanover-Pender County line.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 10-0 CASE: Z-888, 7/08 PETITIONER: REQUEST: ACREAGE: LOCATION: LAND CLASS: Michael Nadeau for SENCA Properties From R-15 Residential District to B-2 Highway Business District Approximately 9.22 Acres 9100 block of N. Market Street @ County line Transition PLANNING BOARD ACTION: At its July 3, 2008 meeting, the Planning Board was unable to arrive at a recommendation. The vote was 3-3 on a motion to deny the request. The board expressed concerns about the broad range of uses allowed under a general B-2 district and some expressed a preference to consider a conditional district rather than a general one. STAFF SUMMARY The subject property is located in the northern portion of the county in an area classified on the 2006 LAMA Land Classification map as transition. Access is anticipated to be from New Hanover Medical Park Drive, a local road that intersects with North Market Street which is a maj or arterial divided roadway. Level of service on Market Street in this segment has been rated F, meaning traffic volume exceeds capacity. The location is subj ect to the county's Special Highway Overlay District, which protects gateway vistas primarily through a requirement for additional setbacks and buffering. The subject property is south of the Pender County line. Pender zoning adjacent to the subject property along the northern boundary is B-3 along the highway and R-20C at the rear of the property. South of this property is zoned CD(O&I) to accommodate a future medical complex for the hospital. To the east is the Salem Woods residential subdivision. Across Market Street is a mini storage facility. The subject property is located within the Futch Creek watershed drainage area which carries a water quality classification of SA and HQW (High Quality Waters) and is listed on the 303(d) impaired waters list. Over the past four years, water quality in upper Futch Creek has experienced a decrease in water quality, most likely due to the increase in development in this area. Portions of Futch Creek are included within the limited area the remains open to shellfishing in New Hanover County, however the Division of Water Quality has indicated that Futch Creek will likely be completely closed to shellfishing due to diminished water quality. All measures should be taken in the construction process to ensure that erosion control measures are met to prevent the runoff of sediment into Futch Creek. Staff also recommends that Low Impact Development (LID) techniques be incorporated into the stormwater design of the site to ensure that water quantity and water quality goals are met. Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 10-1-1 The property is not influenced by flood hazard and no areas of 404 wetlands are indicated. The site is in a primary recharge area for the principal aquifers or a shallow water table sand aquifer containing fresh over salty water. Public utilities are planned for this area. Land Use Plan Considerations: This rezoning requests a change from medium density residential expectations to highway business use. The change would significantly expand and intensify the range of uses allowed. Between 2003 and 2005, average daily traffic volume on Market Street increased by about 8%. The addition of "superstreet" improvements in 2006 has improved the flow of traffic in this area raising the level of service from "FF" to F. The Wilmington Metropolitan Planning Organization has commissioned Kimly Horne to develop a corridor overlay plan for the Market Street Corridor between Colonial Drive and the Pender County line. The plan will identify catalysts for economic growth and development of the corridor and recommend access management strategies to address a growing traffic congestion problem. As a gateway to the County this parcel is critical in the development of the plan. The petitioner has agreed to work with the consultants as their planning process continues so that strategies can be incorporated in the site planning process. The 2006 Update of the Joint LAMA Plan describes the purpose of the Transition class as providing for future intensive urban development on lands that have been or will be provided with necessary urban services. The location of these areas is based upon land use planning policies requiring optimum efficiency in land utilization and public service delivery. In this case, services are to be installed in that area and access is available from a local street as well as the arterial. Based on the foregoing, staff recommends approval. ACTION NEEDED: Adopt a statement in accordance with NCGS 153A-341 which requires that "prior to adopting or rejecting any zoning amendment, the governing board shall adopt a statement describing whether the action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest." EXAMPLE: The County Commissioners find that this request for zoning map amendment from R-15 Residential to B-2 Highway Commercial is (or is not): 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the Transition land classification and the associated land use policies adopted in the 2006 land use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to allow a broad range of commercial uses in this location near at the New Hanover-Pender County line.

LAND CLASS: Transition PLANNING BOARD ACTION: At its July 3, 2008 meeting, the Planning Board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the request with conditions as follows: 1. No outdoor kennels 2. Uses limited to Veterinarian and Kennels with indoor pens only 3. Hours limited as specified by applicant to 8-6 Monday through Friday and 8-12 on Saturday. 4. Low country design of the building as discussed by the applicant. 5. Lighting contained on site as noted on the site plan. STAFF SUMMARY The subject property is located in the southern portion of the county in an area classified on the 2006 LAMA Land Classification map as transition. Access is anticipated to be from Manassas Dr. near its intersection with Carolina Beach Road which is a major arterial divided roadway. Level of service on Carolina Beach Road has been rated F, meaning traffic volume exceeds capacity. The subject property is south of the Sanders Road intersection which has evolved into a commercial node. The west side of Carolina Beach Road has also stripped out into commercial districts along the divided highway frontage while the east side remains residential. The subject property is part of the Battle Park subdivision and is currently vacant and wooded. Adjacent property is all zoned R-15. To the south is the County's Battle Park site. To the north and east is the remainder of the Battle Park Subdivision and is developed with residential uses. Further north is more R-15 residential development up to Christa Apartments. The subject property is located within the Seabreeze watershed drainage area which carries a water quality classification of SA and HQW (High Quality Waters). The property is not influenced by flood hazard and no areas of 404 wetlands are indicated. The site is in a shallow water table sand aquifer. The applicant plans to utilize private well and septic system since no public services are available in this location. As a condition for rezoning, the applicant proposes that the use of the property would be a veterinary practice with indoor kennels. A companion special use permit will bind the proposed use and restrictions to this property. Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 11-1-1 Land Use Plan Considerations: This conditional rezoning petition proposes a change from moderate density residential zoning to a conditional use Office & Institutional designation for the purpose of developing a veterinary office and clinic. The ordinance describes the situations in which conditional districts might be considered, and notes that this procedure is intended primarily for use with transitions between zoning districts of very dissimilar character (e.g. R-15 and B-2) where a particular use or uses, with restrictive conditions to safeguard adj acent land uses, can create a more orderly transition. It is not intended as a routine substitute for the general rezoning procedure, or for frequent use, because creating a large number of such specialized districts can lead to excessive administrative complexity and great difficulty in maintaining consistent and predictable land use policies. The ordinance also advises that this option is intended only for firm development proposals, and shall not be used for tentative projects without definitive plans. Between 2003 and 2006, average daily traffic volume on Carolina Beach Road increased by about 8%. Average Daily Traffic on Manassas Drive showed a 50% decrease during the same period. No Traffic Impact Analysis was prepared for this proj ect because traffic generation estimates were below the 100 peak hour trip threshold. The 2006 Update of the Joint LAMA Plan describes the purpose of the Transition class as providing for future intensive urban development on lands that have been or will be provided with necessary urban services. The location of these areas is based upon land use planning policies requiring optimum efficiency in land utilization and public service delivery. In this case, services are not present and access is anticipated from a local street rather than the arterial. There is a median break at this intersection on Carolina Beach Road. The Tarin Woods Subdivision has been preliminarily approved east of Battle Park with streets that will accommodate potential interconnectivity to Manassas Drive via Appomattox Drive. The site is just north of property purchased by the county with recreation bond funds in 1992 for use as a public park. The Parks and Recreation Department has programmed $1 million for park improvements and about $500,000 for a library on the site. It is unclear at this time whether the county will implement the park plan. Based on the foregoing and the conditions attached, this proposal would be consistent with the established residential character of the immediately adjacent area. ACTION #1 NEEDED: Adopt a statement in accordance with NCGS 153A-341 which requires that "prior to adopting or rejecting any zoning amendment, the governing board shall adopt a statement describing whether the action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest." EXAMPLE: Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 11-1-2 The County Commissioners find that this request for zoning map amendment from R-15 Residential to CD(O&I) conditional Office and Institutional District is (or is not): 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the Transition land classification and the associated land use policies adopted in the 2006 land use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to allow a veterinary use adjacent to a residential neighborhood on a conditional basis at this location. PRELIMINARY STAFF FINDINGS FOR THE COMPANION SPECIAL USE PERMIT: 1. The Board must find that the use will not materially endanger the public health or safety where proposed and developed according to the plan as submitted and approved. A. Private well water will serve the property. B. A private septic system will serve the project C. The property would access a local public street. D. Traffic counts decreased on Manassas Dr. between 2003 and 2006 but increased on Carolina Beach Road by about 8% in the vicinity of this site between 2003 and 2006. E. Traffic circulation system will be awkward with respect to proximity of the driveway to the intersection with Carolina Beach Road and the limited stacking capacity at the median break proposed on Manassas Dr.. F. Fire Service is available from the Myrtle Grove FD. G. The property is not located in a flood hazard area. H. Stormwater retention is not shown on the site plan. The parcel is under one acre but would still be subject to review under the County's storm water ordinance. 2. The Board must find that the use meets all required conditions and specifications of the Zoning Ordinance. A. The property is zoned R-15 Residential District. This request is made concurrent with conditional rezoning to CD(O&I) Conditional Office & Insitutional District. B. The proposed veterinary use is allowed by special use permit in O&I districts. C. Office & Institutional uses are viewed as transitional uses between residential and higher intensity uses. D. Petitioner proposes 20 off-street parking spaces which exceeds the requirement of 12 spaces. E. Stormwater management is influenced by the water quality classification of the watershed. 3. The Board must find that the use will not substantially injure the value of adjoining or abutting property or that the use is a public necessity. A. No evidence has been submitted that this project will decrease property values of adjacent parcels. B. Stormwater management must perform in compliance with the requirements of the County Stormwater ordinance. 4. The Board must find that the location and character of the use if developed according to the plan as submitted and approved will be in harmony with the area Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 11-1-3 in which it is to be located and in general conformity with the plan of development for New Hanover County. A. The 2006 Land Use Plan identifies this area as Transition, which provides for future intensive urban development on lands that have or will have urban services. This site does not have those services. B. The residential character in this area is clearly delineated. Low-country design of the building is proposed by the applicant to be harmonious with the surrounding residential area. Staff comments: Staff agrees with the conditions suggested by the Planning Board and accepted by the applicant. Staff recommends creation of a conditional zoning district as applied for. ACTION # 2 NEEDED: (Choose one) 1. Motion to Grant the special use permit based on the findings of fact (with or without recommended conditions) 2. Motion to table the item in order to receive additional information or documentation (Specify). 3. Motion to Deny based on specific negative findings in any of the 4 categories above, such as lack of consistency with adopted plans or determination that the project will pose public hazards, will not adequately meet requirements of the ordinance, or will be out of character with surrounding area.

He seeks to purchase this property and build his own veterinary treatment facility, far he and his wife to service the community. The proposal is for a one-story, roughly fig' ~ 8', building with ~ fatal of 4~gg .f. of grass floor area, same of which will be finished space in the roof pitches. The facility gill have hours an IUlonday through Friday from a.n~. to G p.m., and Baturday from ~ a. m, to ~ 2 noon. Afield survey of the boundary existing physical conditions, sails testing far stormwater infiltration capability, and a preliminary grading plan have been corr~pleted to assure the feasibility of the site plan proposed. The project has prepared in accordance with all of the New Hanover bounty honing ordinance regulations far setbacks and bufferyardsi All design details will meet technical standards, and construction will adhere to all regulations and specifications. The location along Daralina Beach load provides a facilitythat is easily accessible fortheir clients. Manassas give is also a public street and adequate farthe traffic generated by a sr~all office use. The policies forgrowth and development encourage continued efforts to attract and retain businesses. The objective is to assure that new uses will enhance the functionality and promote the economic vitality afthe surrounding area. A veterinary clinic, with the site and building design a proposed, can meet the strategy that allows in-fill development that can retain aesthetic and functional compatibility with surrounding development. The plan proposes farthe building to be placed close to the highway frontage, with parking areas to the side and rear, a strategy to enhance the tretscapes along the busy highway. The proposed building design exhibits the areas historic "low~cauntry" character. The facade facing Darolina Beach load gill have windows to break up the scale of the side view, but gill also be heavily landscaped with streetyard plantings to enhance the view. The building entry, facing ll~anassas Drive includes a covered parch entryway, with craftsman-styled columns, to lend a mare residential characteras you enterthe Battle Park neighborhood. There are na regulated or significant trees within the developrr~ent area, llisuai screening and overall use buffering between the facility and the adjacent residential lot gill be provided by plantings.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 13-0 A-371, 5/08 TEXT AMENDMENT Applicant: Staff PLANNING BOARD ACTION: This item was discussed at the May 5, 2008 Planning Board meeting and the June 18, 2008 work session prior to taking action on July 3, 2008. The board voted 6-0 to recommend approval of the amendment. No one from the public spoke in this item. ADD: Section 23. DEFINITIONS SENIOR LIVING OPTIONS Active Adult Retirement Community or Independent Livin F,_ F,~X - A housing development that may contain a variety of housing types designed for and restricted to occupancy by households having at least one member who is 55 years of age or older, living independently. Facilities and services would typically include features such as: security; lawn and building maintenance; wellness, fitness, or spa services and facilities; central meeting areas; programmed recreation or social facilities and activities; communal garden spots; AARP Universal Design or other similar characteristics. Minimal supportive services may also be offered to residents in senior apartment facilities. Continuing Care Retirement or Life Care Community - A residential community that accommodates changing lifestyle preferences and health care needs and offers several levels of assistance, including all of the following: independent living, assisted living and nursing home care. It provides a written agreement or long-term contract between the resident and the provider community which offers insurance of a continuum of housing, services and health care, most commonly all on one campus, and frequently lasting for the resident's lifetime. Assisted Living or Personal Care FacilitX - A managed facility providing personalized supportive services (personal care) to seniors who need help with the activities of daily living. These facilities make available at a minimum, one daily meal and housekeeping services, and also provides personal care directly or through a formal written agreement with a licensed care agency or hospice. Personal care services are services typically provided to individuals with infirmities or limitations and commonly includes assistance with eating, bathing, dressing or walking as well as medication management, personal laundry service and other individualized services. Personal care would not normally include general transportation, social or recreational offerings nor exercise, salon or spa services, although any of these services could be offered in addition to personal care. Nursing Home or Rehabilitation Center - A licensed facility for chronic or convalescent patients who have remedial ailments or other ailments for which continuing medical and nursing care are indicated but who do not require general hospital care. A-371, 5/08 Page 1 of 4 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 13-1-1 (Commentary: these categories and definitions are composites from several sources, including the NC General Statutes, the NC Department of Health and Human Services, retirement-living.com, seniorhousing.org, senioroutlook.com. The attempt is to clarify the broad range of housing options emerging in today's aging society in order to avoid confusion about uses or terminologies not described in our current ordinance.) SECTION 69.4-1 SENIOR LIVING OPTIONS Certain senior living options will be permitted by right when the prescribed standards outlined below are followed. Proposals which do not care to follow these prescriptions or which desire to maximize possible density allowances within specific zoning districts may alternatively be considered under normal special use permit requirements for high density development. Any "bonus" features outlined in this section may not cross over into a regular special use permit request for high density development. Active Adult Retirement Community or Independent Living - Since this type of development is most commonly a simple matter of segregating residents based on age and not physical limitations, development proposals in this category shall not be differentiated from other residential subdivisions or special use high density residential proposals. Continuing Care Retirement or Life Care Community -Since this type of development provides a variety of residential units that accommodate older adults through the continuum of changing needs, development proposals in this category shall be permitted with standards as described below: 1. Minimum lot size: 20 acres 2. Parking requirements: 1.5 spaces per independent or assisted living unit plus 1 per employee on the largest shift at all facilities. 3. Density: Maximum density shall not exceed 8 living units per acre, not including nursing home beds. 4. Maximum impervious area for the total development may not exceed 40% of the net acreage. 5. Commercial uses in the nature of small, neighborhood shops may occupy up to 2% of the net acreage. 6. Maximum height may not exceed 3 5 feet for single family structures or when buildings are placed within 50 feet of single family residential lots or parcels. 7. Except as noted in item 6, above, maximum height may exceed 3 5 feet, up to 50 feet, when setbacks are increased to equal the proposed height of the building. Heights greater than 50 feet may be considered for projects approved under the special use permit process. 8. Public water and sewer must serve the site. A-371, 5/08 Page 2 of 4 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 13-1-2 9. Open Space and improved recreational area shall be provided at a rate of 35%. Improved recreation space shall be appropriate for seniors at all stages of lifestyle transition, such as ADA accessible walkways, gardens, and parks. 10. Vegetative buffers of not less than 20 feet are required for all proposals. 11. Traffic impacts and required road improvements must be reviewed and approved by the MPO and NCDOT. Frontage on an arterial or collector street is required unless located in a Planned Development as described in Section 53.5-2 (7) (0) b. 12. All other local state or federal permits or authorizations. (Commentary: This category includes built-in "bonus"features such as reduced parking standards; high density without the time and expense of a special use permit review as long as prescribed conditions are part of the proposal; option for increased height; and option for minor commercial uses to be included. Projects which do not conform to the prescribed standards may still apply for a special use permit for high density development under the other existing provisions of Sec. 69.4 The impervious limits and open space requirements are the same as high density standards in R-15 districts when special use permits are required. Permitted density bonus is 75% of the maximum high density with SUP in R-15. Twenty acres is roughly the size of the Brightmore complex in the city.) Assisted Living or Personal Care FacilitX - Since this type of development provides residential units to accommodate seniors in need of assistance with the activities of daily living, development proposals in this category, not part of a Continuing Care Retirement/Life Care Community, shall be permitted by right under the following conditions: 1. Minimum lot size: 5 acres 2. Parking requirements: 1.25 spaces per living unit plus 1 per employee on the largest shift. 3. Density: Maximum density shall not exceed 13 living units per acre. 4. Maximum Height shall be limited to 3 5 feet when buildings are placed within 50 feet of single family residential lots or parcels. 5. Except as noted in item 4 above, height may exceed 35 feet, up to 50 feet, when setbacks are increased to equal the proposed height of the building. Heights greater than 50 feet maybe considered for projects approved under the special use permit process. 6. Public water and sewer must serve the site. 7. Maximum impervious area shall not exceed 50% of the net acreage. 8. Open Space and improved recreation space shall be provided at a rate of 20% of net acreage. 9. Vegetative buffers of not less than 20 feet are required for all proposals. 10. Traffic impacts and required road improvements must be reviewed and approved by the MPO and NCDOT. Frontage on an arterial or collector roadway is required. 11. All other local state or federal permits or authorizations. A-371, 5/08 Page 3 of 4 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 13-1-3 (Commentary: This category includes greater built-in "bonus "features such as greater reduction of parking standards; higher density without the time and expense of a special use permit review as long as prescribed conditions are part of the proposal; option for increased height; and option for minor commercial uses to be included. Projects which do not conform to the prescribed standards may still apply for a special use permit for high density development under the other existing provisions of Sec. 69.4 The impervious limits and open space requirements are the same as high density standards in R-10 districts when special use permits are required. Permitted density bonus is 75% of maximum under high density SUP in R-10 districts.) Nursing home/rehabilitation center -Since this type of development provides residential care in a licensed institutional setting, the provisions of the ordinance outlined in Sec. 72- 9 of the ordinance apply. The number of beds approved should correspond to the number of beds allocated to the applicant by an approved certificate of need. (Commentary: The name of this use changes slightly from "nursing home and personal care facility" to Nursing home/rehabilitation center. There has been considerable debate about the scope of `personal care" in the current definition, and several parties have suggested projects that bear no similarity to a licensed facility providing personalized assistance to residents with limitations, but they wish to be approved as personal care facilities under the highly institutionalized standards for this use category. Therefore, we have shifted personal care into a new category which more appropriately aligns that term with assisted living. The ordinance adequately deals with this type of development. Except for the change in name and tying the approval to the number of beds in the cert~cate of need, this use and its standards would remain the same as now.) ACTION NEEDED: Adopt a statement in accordance with NCGS 153A-341 which requires that "prior to adopting or rejecting any zoning amendment, the governing board shall adopt a statement describing whether the action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest." EXAMPLE: The County Commissioners find that this request for zoning text amendment is (or is not): 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the land use policies, particularly Policy 17.2.4 adopted in the 2006 land use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to define and create standards for the range of senior housing options that are beginning to present themselves for development in New Hanover County.

At its July 3, 2008 meeting the Board voted 4-2 to recommend the amendments as requested. Several people spoke in favor of the request. One person spoke against it. RECOMMENDED MOTION AND REQUESTED ACTIONS: NCGS 153A-341 requires that the governing board shall adopt a statement describing whether the action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest. Planning Staff recommends :Motion to APPROVE the zoning text amendment based on finding the request is: 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the associated land use policies adopted in the 2006 land use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to protect residential areas from negative effects of dry stack storage associated with marinas allowed under special use permits. Option 2: Motion to DENY the request because it not consistent with the purposes and intent of the land use policies and/or is not found to be reasonable and in the public's interest.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 14-0 A-372, 6/08 TEXT AMENDMENT APPLICANT: David Ward PLANNING BOARD ACTION: The Manning Board discussed this item at them June 5, 2008 regular meeting and June 18, 2008 work session before taking action. At its July 3, 2008 meeting the board voted 4-2 to recommend the amendments as requested. Several people spoke in favor of the request. One person spoke against it. AMEND SECTION 72-31-Commercial Marina, Subsection (6) Dry stack storage The applicant proposes the following: (New text is underlined. Deleted language is struck through.) (6) Dry stack storage as an accessory to a marina may be allowed only as part of new residential developments or in a B-1 zoning district. ~rra ~~e~t~a~-e~~-rz~t~c~ Drv stack storage must be clearly identified on the approved site plan and described in the findings of fact. Additional buffers or screenings will be required to mitigate noise, light and dust impacts on surrounding properties. (1/7/08) a. Setbacks for dry stack storage from any ~g residential property line shall be not less than 2.75 times the height of the structure if enclosed or the highest point of a stored vessel if unenclosed. (1/7/08). In no case may the setback be less than the requirements of the underlvin~ zoning district. b. Appearance of stacked storage should retain the character of the surrounding residential areas and provide opaque vegetative buffers to reduce visual impacts. (1/7/08) c. Projects shall be designed so that the use of noise-generating activities, such as large marine forklifts, boat haul out or boat repair approved as part of the special use permit will be located as far away from residential structures as feasible to lessen impacts on the residential quality of life. (1/7/08) STAFF COMMENTS: 1- By their nature, ordinance amendments apply to proposals approved after adoption of the rule, so there is no need for a date reference. At the work session we spoke about removing the date reference. 2- At the work session the board spoke at length about the pros and cons of removing the term "abutting. " It was noted that the change would make the setback apply even if the project were separated from residential property by a road or other non-residential situation. If that is not the intent, the "abutting" term should stay. 3- The addition of the reference to setbacks not being less than the requirements of the underlying zoning district were suggested by the Chief Zoning Official. A-372, 6/08 Page 1 of 2 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 14-1-1 Webster's definition: Abut - To touch along a border or with a projecting part. To terminate at a point of contact. Staff Recommendation: Staff supports the original proposed language presented at the work session with the removal of the word "abutting" as described below. However, staff believes the special use permit process allows ample opportunity for decision makers to review and consider appropriateness in existing residential communities. Staff would allow for dry stack storage in existing communities if approved according to the ordinance language and through the public hearing process. Therefore the following language is recommended by staff: (6) Dry stack storage as an accessory to a marina may be allowed in a residential or B-1 zoning district. Dry stack storm must be clearly identified on the approved site plan and described in the findings of fact. Additional buffers or screenings will be required to mitigate noise, light and dust impacts on surrounding properties. (1/7/08) a. Setbacks for dry stack storage from any ~g residential property line shall be not less than 2.75 times the height of the structure if enclosed or the highest point of a stored vessel if unenclosed. (1/7/08). In no case may the setback be less than the requirements of the underlvin~ zoning district. b. Appearance of stacked storage should retain the character of the surrounding residential areas and provide opaque vegetative buffers to reduce visual impacts. (1/7/08) c. Projects shall be designed so that the use of noise-generating activities, such as large marine forklifts, boat haul out or boat repair approved as part of the special use permit will be located as far away from residential structures as feasible to lessen impacts on the residential quality of life. (1/7/08) ACTION NEEDED: Adopt a statement in accordance with NCGS 153A-341 which requires that "prior to adopting or rejecting any zoning amendment, the governing board shall adopt a statement describing whether the action is consistent with an adopted comprehensive plan and explaining why the board considers the action taken to be reasonable and in the public interest." EXAMPLE: The County Commissioners find that this request for zoning text amendment is (or is not): 1. Consistent with the purposes and intent of the associated land use policies adopted in the 20061and use plan; 2. Reasonable and in the public interest to protect residential areas from negative effects of dry stack storage associated with marinas allowed under special use permits.

NEW HANOVER COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION MEETING DATE: August 4, 2008 REGULAR ITEM: 16 DEPARTMENT: Planning PRESENTER(S): Sam Burgess CONTACT(S): Sam Burgess SUBJECT: Public Hearing Road Closing (SC-85, 5108) -Request by the New Hanover County Airport Authority to Close a 900' Portion of the Old Winter Park-Wrightsboro Road (also known as John Morris Road) Located Near the Intersection of North Kerr Avenue and John Morris Road BRIEF SUMMARY: The New Hanover County Airport Authority has petitioned the County to close a 900' portion of Old Winter Park-Wrightsboro Road.

Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 16-0 CASE: SC-85, 05/08 APPLICANT: New Hanover County Airport Authority REQUEST: Close a Portion of Old Winter Park-Wrightsboro Road (also known as John Morris Road) LOCATION: Near Intersection of North Kerr Avenue & John Morris Road Background Information The New Hanover County Airport Authority has petitioned the County to close a 900' portion of Old Winter Park-Wrightsboro Road. The improved road contains a 60' right-of-way and is located approximately 562 `west of the intersection of North Kerr Avenue and John Morris Road (SR 1353). A site map depicting the portion of the road to be closed is attached. In accordance with NCGS 153-A-241, a Resolution of Intent to close a road must be adopted by the Board of New Hanover County Commissioners prior to scheduling a public hearing. This Road Resolution was adopted by the Board on June 16, 2008. Staff Comments As depicted on the site map, the improved road right-of-way known as Old Winter Park- Wrightsboro Road adjoins property owned by the Wilmington International Airport. County Fire Services has indicated that they do not have issues with the proposed closing. County Engineering staff also does not have issues with the road closure providing that access is provided to the cemetery located near the end of the road. The Cape Fear Public Utility Authority (CFPUA) recommends that a 30' utility easement be placed across the road. The cemetery is owned by the Methodist Conference and is located near the northeast terminus of the road. As requested by the Board, approximately 37 graves (marked and unmarked) exist on site - see attached page of list. Information provided to the local Methodist Conference and family descendent indicated that they did not have any concerns about the road closure provided access to the site. The Acorn Branch cemetery as it is also known has been surveyed and is on record with the NC Division of Archives and History. This cemetery is of local historical interest with gravesites of members of the Kerr and Westbrook family who were large landowners, well known truck farmers and an early county commissioner. The New Hanover County International Airport has provided the following information: 1) The Airport Master Plan with the FAA shows the area around the cemetery enclosed inside the airport perimeter fence for security, aircraft safety, and future hanger development. ILM does not intend to relocate the cemetery. All future development will work around the cemetery. 2) The fence project isa FAAfundedgrant, and they knows cemeteryexists in thearea. Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 16-1-1 3) The (Transportation Security Administration (TSA) supports the fence project as well. 4) The airport will have a sign on the gate at Morris Road that will provide a phone number to Airport dispatch (341-4336) in the event acitizen/family member wishes to visit the cemetery. During daylight hours, the airport will provide access to the cemetery. An airport employee will be sent to open the gate and escort the visitor to the cemetery. 5) The airport will continue to maintain the cemetery because the original owner (Methodist Conference) does not wish to. 6) Until 2006, the airport had four (4) employees living along Morris Road. In the 5 years they occupied the area, they did not witness any visitors to the cemetery. While the proposed road closure does not land lock nearby residential property, it would land lock the Acorn Branch cemetery thus staff recommends that the airport undertake reasonable maintenance efforts including cutting grass, trimming shrubbery, removing weeds, and fallen tree limbs periodically. In efforts to preserve the cemetery, no heavy machinery shall be used in conjunction with maintenance of it. Planning Staff also recommends that the cemetery be enclosed by a permanent fence that allows access for visiting relatives and perpetual care. The enclosure should include a modest buffer zone (10- 20feet) around the core area. Additionally, reasonable efforts should be made by the airport to restore the small wrought iron fence that encloses the Westbrook graves. If these maintenance methods can be achieved by the airport, staff recommends approval of the petitioner's request.

After reviewing the map and application, a road directly from Kerr Ave.. to the edge of the cemetery would not be advisable. In retrospect, probably the main reason this particular cemetery has escaped vandalism is due to its seclusion. If a direct road was constructed from Kerr with an unlocked gate, this easy accessibility may simply invite trouble. As there will probably not be that many visitors to this cemetery, an airport escort would be ideal for visiting the site. If it is okay, I would like to visit Acorn Branch again, before the road is officially closed, in order to photograph all the headstones for my personal records. The preservation of all our county cemeteries should continue to be a concern to New Hanover County. My family appreciates the Airport's future maintenance of Acorn Branch without the use of heavy machinery that would, in time, deface/destroy the headstones. According to his obituary dated June 11,1928, in the "Wilmington Morning Star", Joseph T. (Theophilus) Kerr served as a county commissioner from 1908 until 1916 and represented New Hanover County in the N. C. State Legislature during the session of 1891. Also, there are three documented names I would like to add to your gravelist for Acorn Branch Cemetery: James Angus Kerr b. 22 Jan 1846 d. l2 Apr 1921 Anna Bertha Kerr b. 25 Feb 1872 d. l6 May 1904 William James Kerr b. l5 June 1873 d. 20 Oct 1921 Again, thank you for contacting me. Hopefully you will enjoy your new j ob in preserving the county cemeteries and the history that goes with them. Sincerely, Joan Kerr Brown 3 600 Angus Dr. Castle Hayne, NC 28429 Phone: 602-7742 Board of Commissioners Meeting 08/04/2008 16-3-1 ~ ~~. ~ ~o mid. s ~ ~~ Air ~ ~a • ; ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ sane ~~. ~~ ~~~e ~ ~ ~ ~ ~a~n. . i~ ~ .9 t~~ ~~ ~~~~ 1~~~ ~ ~~~ ~ p ~ ~ parr ~ ~ .

In accordance with NCGS 153-A- 241, aResolution of Intent to close a road or easement must be adopted by the Board of County Commissioners prior to scheduling a public hearing. Staff Comments As shown on the site map, the improved road right-of-way of Point Harbor Road is adjacent to a newly rezoned RFMU project called Point Harbor Marina (approved by the Board in March, 2008). The segment of the road that spurs off the main portion of Point Harbor Road is an old remnant of U.S. Highway 421. According to the petitioner, the dead end section of the road needs to be closed/abandoned to accommodate the new Point Harbor Marina project. County Engineering, County Fire Services, the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority, and NCDOT staff have not evaluated the petition during the road resolution process. If the Resolution of Intent to close/abandon a portion of Point Harbor Road Is adopted by the Board of County Commissioners, a public hearing on the matter would be scheduled for August 4, 2008. At the public hearing, eventful information will be provided from County Engineering, the Cape Fear Public Utility Authority, and NCDOT pertaining to the proposed closure.
