Plans for a subdivision called Myrtle Sound will go before the New Hanover Technical Review Committee May 1. The proposed site is located on the 500 block of Myrtle Grove Road.

The development will be situated on 11.8 acres of land and the land is currently zoned as R-15 residential district.

Buildings on the outer ends of the development will have a setback minimum of 20 feet and the single family homes will be spaced at a minimum of 10 feet from each other.

The subdivision will also have a five-foot sidewalk along the two roads in the subdivision.

Because the proposed development is expected to generate less than 100 peak hour trips, a traffic impact analysis is not required.

Water and sewer services are to be coordinated with Cape Fear Public Utility Authority.

The applicant and owner of the land is Kyle Kelsay with Wilmington based Storehouse Holdings, LLC.

The plans are scheduled to go before New Hanover County's Technical Review Committee May 1 for review and decision to see if the subdivision meets code requirements.
