The land surrounding the site is mostly vacant or single-family residential, while the project site is designated as medium-density residential in the county’s future use plan.
Parking for the homes will be off street, according to the plans, and consist of two spots per home. The development is expected to generate an additional 621 vehicle trips each week day. The roads within the development will be private, while water and sewer services will be provided by Brunswick County.
More than half the site − 12.5 acres − will be designated as open space, according to the approved plans, and 1.3 acres will be designated as recreation space.
