Cape Fear Crossing Project Flabbergasts Brunswick Forest

What’s up with the Cape Fear Crossing Project?

you can imagine that’s a that’s a big

 

legal issue for the Cape Fear Crossing in Brunswick Forest should the state be able to

 

on its own saying hey everybody you’re

 

no longer allowed to develop this area

 

because in 20 years we might put some

 

roads there well that’s not very cool so

 

three years ago the Supreme Court and

 

North Carolina ruled against that which

 

opened the doors for development in

 

these areas that had been frozen makeup

 

they were calling it a land freeze now

 

this area here for alternative tea is

 

supposed to cost a lot less than

 

alternative m and in my theory on that

 

is because if you look at the map

 

alternative tea going right here on

 

route 17 and then across over here is

 

much shorter than the other routes a man

 

in which should pull up shortly and they

 

might be for example 20 miles less Road

 

to construct and that may be where a big

 

part of the savings is especially if a

 

lot of that road is crossing back and

 

forth over the town Creek you know

 

estuary going through Brunswick County

 

etc so I’m going to zoom in on the maps

 

here and show you what’s going on here

 

relates to real estate plantation and

 

alternative em avoidance they both

 

started 87 and 17

 

instead of starting right here just

 

going like this they start way over here

 

and go around there much longer paths to

 

success as it were so therefore they

 

cost hundreds of millions of dollars

 

more now over here on the MLS this area

 

here is bronze Wake Forest and over here

 

is Mallory Creek plantation most of

 

Brunswick Forest from what I can tell

 

would not remotely be impacted by this

 

caper crossing now I want to emphasize

 

that because one of the most impressive

 

neighborhoods in the entire country not

 

in a state in the country

 

is the Brunswick forest plant community

 

it’s amazing and the Cape air Crossing

 

does not look like it will affect most

 

of Brunswick forest if at all because

 

they haven’t decided yet where it would

 

go now if they do select alternative tea

 

well it would go in this general area of

 

perhaps a half mile off this road called

 

Lillibridge and these are homes here

 

that have sold in the last two years

 

here or that are active now there’s in

 

the last two years I think about 60

 

homes have sold in this little section

 

of Brunswick four so if they do

 

alternative tea it’s going to greatly

 

impact this small section off to the

 

side of Brunswick Forest and that’s a

 

real issue that consumers need to be

 

aware of so it’s my mom I’m saying mom

 

you cannot beat Brunswick forest I would

 

buy a home in Brunswick forest but to be

 

careful I would be preventative of what

 

section of the neighborhood I was buying

 

in and not take the risk okay that’s

 

what I would tell my mom and as a

 

realtor that’s how I do my business what

 

would I tell my own mom as you can see

 

this is a significant area we’re talking

 

about hundreds of houses in

 

area even if one of the hundred and

 

eight houses that would directly be

 

impacted through eminent domain

 

according to these sources I’m reading

 

even if your home wasn’t one of those

 

houses you might still be whatever 50

 

yards away from a major new highway and

 

be listening to it and seeing it that’s

 

not what you had in mind when you bought

 

in a neighborhood so that is what the

 

fuss is about

 

with this project or plan called

 

alternative T now I’m going to just real

 

quick look up some other notes on it

 

here that I highlighted for you and

 

hammer them out here maybe not in the

 

order I attended originally this is just

 

a complicated thing here to go and stop

 

the development no ball our policy

 

permits leyland brunswick county or the

 

state from intervening to stop or slow

 

development and brunswick forest and

 

mallory creek new subdivisions in the

 

Cape Fear crossings path and the

 

development is growing fast well I can

 

guarantee you developments going fast

 

we’re talking exploding and that’s

 

because it’s a premier neighborhood in

 

the country the Washington excuse me the

 

Wilmington urban area Metropolitan

 

Planning Organization the W MPO

 

they wanted and recommended against

 

alternative T they were wanting one of

 

the alternatives to be selected of M or

 

n as my understanding but the problem is

 

that costs a lot more money now where is

 

all this and what is it all happening

 

this has already been 20 or 26 years in

 

the making

 

recently 33 million bucks were just

 

granted or set aside or earmarked for

 

this project the problem is it needs I

 

believe to be at least 65 or 75 percent

 

funded before they can do anything so

 

we’re still 10 years away of being able

 

to even looks like start this because

 

every couple years they’re going to get

 

tens

 

billions and more dollars and from what

 

I’m reading it won’t be for about 10

 

years 2028 of 2029 until they have a

 

chance of doing anything you see because

 

they need another 970 million dollars so
