Lowe's home improvement has proposed to erect a 159,054 square foot mega store at 1500 N. Croatan Hwy adjacent to Landing Drive and First Street in Kill Devil Hills, NC. This site is approximately 1500 ft from property of the historic Wright Brothers National Memorial.

The plan includes an addition of at least 3.5 feet of fill to achieve a 10.5 foot elevation above sea level on the 12.8 acre lot which may potentially flood the surrounding neighborhood and the park despite any swales, retention areas, and piping meant to divert storm water. A stop light would also be added at US 158 and Landing Drive.

Zoning variances are being requested for the following issues: to allow only 409 parking spaces instead of the required 795 for a business this size, 38 foot light poles, planting fewer trees than required along US 158.

We the residents and visitors of the Outer Banks oppose the Lowe's site plan proposal and variance requests to construct this home improvement mega store at 1500 N. Croatan Hwy in Kill Devil Hills, NC.

The Say NO to the proposed site plan and location of Lowe's at 1500 N. Croatan Hwy in Kill Devil Hills petition to Town of Kill Devil Hills Board of Commissioners was written by David Henderson and is in the category Local Government at GoPetition.
