Two rezoning cases were presented at the Northwest Citizens Advisory Council meeting earlier this month, including one that calls for a 200-unit retirement village off TW Alexander Drive.<\/p>\n

Although both properties are owned by the Texas-based Stratford Land Advisors, each will be developed by different companies.<\/p>\n

The July 14 meeting marked the second appearance of Z-19-15 before the Northwest CAC, as it had initially been presented at June\u2019s meeting. This time, it was scheduled for a vote.<\/p>\n

David York, of Smith, Moore and Leatherwood presented the case on behalf of senior living developer Cambridge Village, which currently operates retirement communities in Apex, Wilmington and Roxboro.<\/p>\n

York noted that the development on TW Alexander Drive was consistent with the future land use, and said that conditions on the property would prohibit a detention center, jail or prison and require a public transit easement.<\/p>\n

CAC attendees voted to approve the case 9-0, a stark contrast to a case presented in June for a new shopping center, against which the CAC voted 63-16.<\/p>\n

Brier Creek Office Building<\/strong><\/p>\n

Z-22-15, which calls for a new five-story, 168,000 square foot office building at 7751 Brier Creek Parkway, was presented for the first time to the CAC on July 14.<\/p>\n

Chad Essick, of Poyner, Spruill LLP presented the case on behalf of Heritage properties. It would rezone the 9.48 acre property from CUD TD w\/PDD to OX-5-CU.<\/p>\n

Essick said the project creates a public benefit because it would provide offices within an existing, highly-developed retail area.<\/p>\n

\u201cCurrently the future land use map designates this property for office and residential uses, but [it\u2019s] currently zoned exclusively for retail uses,\u201d Essick said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe rezoning would rezone the property consistent with the Future Land Use Map.\u201d<\/p>\n

A condition on the property would prohibit telecommunication towers greater than 250 feet.<\/p>\n

A vote will be held on the case at the August meeting of the Northwest CAC.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
