Pender County Planning Staff recently met with the applicant of the Headwaters conditional rezoning case, tabled at the August 7th Planning Board hearing. Based on this conversation, we’d like to notify you of an additional community meeting on Thursday August 16^th at 6:30 p.m. in the Hampstead Annex auditorium.

Pender County Planning staff has scheduled two public meetings in Burgaw and Hampstead this week to seek additional public input on the draft of Pender 2.0, the Comprehensive Land Use Plan update, including the Future Land Use Map and recommended actions on the “Top 10” items in which we received public comment on.

We encourage the public to engage in the process and emphasize the importance of this document and the positive direction it guides our community over the next few decades. These will be drop-in style meetings in which the public will be asked to cycle through a series of maps and priorities while being provided the opportunity to leave comment on the draft product. In addition to this input, Staff will be at both the public libraries to address one-on-one interaction with interested citizens and stakeholders.
