If this goes forward (which I hope it does not) could we please ask for some considerations for natural buffers between existing homes and preservation of natural areas and trees

Too much growth, too fast, failing infrastructure.... stop lining people’s pockets at the expense of our communities!

County officials need to understand that we do not support uncontrolled growth and will remember their actions on election day!

Greatly concerned about the branch in Tibbys Branch. The branch flows from low (drought conditions) to moderate (normal rain conditions) to high (hurricane conditions). A major hurricane will overflow the banks. When I asked the developer why the branch was not on his map, He said "You mean that ditch?". That ditch holds a significant amount of water from the land he wants to build on. The property sold on Tibbys side was always thought to be a part of our development. We will back up to drainage ponds and duplexes with a minimum buffer. If the propsal goes through,I would ask the developer to consider a considerable hedge row and tree buffer to be installed. We did not buy in this neighborhood with the intention of living by duplexes and apartments. No one is against development, just make it similar single family homes like the existing communities around the proposed development

Absolutely opposed to rezoning. Traffic is dangerous enough on Porters Neck Rd as it is. Same for anywhere between the new Walmart and just north of Scotts Hill

Will Logan Builders cover the future infrastructure, environmental, and personal disaster costs which will be incurred by his greedily, for profit only, paving over of needed drainage areas and his for-profit overloading of this regional carrying capacity? Who will bear these future costs? Logan? The County? Taxpayers? Homeowners?

This is horrible for the people who live on Tibbys

The lack of study with regard to traffic impact, and appropriate drainage indicates very irresponsible planning on the part of the developer. Single family homes could be managed, but not appartments. Too dense for this neighborhood.

Native North Carolinian, family has lived in Porters Neck since the early 60's. Please protect our neighborhood and not allow multi-family dwellings.

I oppose this for many reasons - specifically water run off (into Tibby's Branch) and traffic on Porters Neck. I am also very concerned about increased traffic exiting out of Futch onto Market/Hwy 17 trying to turnaround and head back into town. Moderation required. Forget the apartments and duplexes. Single family homes are a possiblity with less local impacts.

Dont you think we should make more things to do around here before building more quick cash homes? I mean where are all the new people gonna go? Food lion and the car wash? Maybe swing by dollar General on their way home? Theres nothing to do around here except get stuck in traffic, glad youre helping the problem with your greed!

Over development is plaguing Wilmington. We are not being responsible to the current residents or to those who build buy these homes considering that affects of storms and flooding. There is already a huge issue with this that was exposed by Florence. This development is irresponsible, bottom line.
