PENDER COUNTY A 35-house neighborhood is the sticking point for a 300-acre rezoning request, and the 750-home development to follow, in Pender County.
While most large Pender County developments in recent years have been placed along the U.S. Highway 17 corridor, this project which was considered at a Jan. 19 board of commissioners meeting but tabled until the applicants produce a revised traffic impact analysis is situated in Rocky Point, a town with approximately 1,700 residents.
