Two items of interest will be on the agenda at a Dec. 3 meeting of the New Hanover County (N.C.) Planning Board: a request to expand an existing RV park on River Road, and a proposed rezoning of land near the Cape Fear River that will allow a development project to expand its footprint, according to Port City Daily.
A constant presence in the county development scene recently, Cindee Wolf will pitch the RV park expansion to the planning board on Thursday. In recent months, she represented a lawn care franchise, outdoor furniture store and numerous other projects that have sought the favor of local governing boards. On at least one occasion, she prompted a glowing review from county manager Chris Coudriet, who lauded her in an email for promoting healthy development.
Wolf, according to developer Dave Spetrino, “understands what motivates staff, as well as the elected officials.”
“I’ve watched her move mountains,” he noted in a text message.
The owner of the Snow’s Cut RV Park, CWEST, LLC, maintains an existing campground of 3.6 acres, approved in 2018. Wolf and the property owner are requesting authorization to use an additional 4.2-acre parcel, directly to the west of the campground, for 28 new camper sites.
The property on River Road has two points of access, and the applicant’s permit request involves the addition of a third — which would require an additional driveway permit from the N.C. Department of Transportation.
The permit application package notes that land to the north of the subject site has historically been used as a campground and RV park since the 1960s; further, RV parks are not mentioned in the county’s 2016 Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
