Market Street Corridor Study PDF Print E-mail
Wednesday, 26 January 2011 10:09

BASE has been working diligently over the past months to encourage our members to get engaged on the forthcoming Market Street Corridor Study which was recently completed by the Wilmington MPO, but is nearing adoption in both the City of Wilmington and New Hanover County.  The study, which encompasses an 11 mile corridor, will impact properties within 1000 feet from the center line of Market Street--from Forest Hills to Porters Neck.

Do you have investments or projects within the Market Street corridor? If so, we strongly encourage you to take a look at the study. This study has a strong transportation element, but also recommends potential changes with respect to land use and even certain architectural and aesthetic standards. While the Study has a model ordinance which will not be adopted at this time, projects that move forward in the corridor "will be urged" to incorporate ideas from the Study in their projects.

For a full copy of the Study, go to www.wmpo.org/market.html

BASE provided comments on the Study and spoke on behalf of the development community at the December Planning Board Meeting in New Hanover County and January Planning Commission Meeting at the City of Wilmington. This Study will be up for consideration at both the City of Wilmington and New Hanover County Commissioners in early 2011. If you have specific questions or concerns, contact BASE Governmental Affairs Director Tyler Newman at 799-2611.
