Commission approves rezoning for Embrace Wellness site at 6230 Carolina Beach Road
Summary
The board unanimously approved a conditional rezoning to convert a longtime office at 6230 Carolina Beach Road into an expanded facility for Embrace Wellness, citing the site’s consistency with the comprehensive plan and the planning board’s recommendation.
The New Hanover County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved a conditional rezoning on June 1 to allow Embrace Wellness to expand into an existing office at 6230 Carolina Beach Road.
Staff described the parcel’s history — originally developed as a sales office in the 1980s — and said the proposed conditional office and institutional (O&I) district would adapt the existing structure for clinical‑psychology services. The planning board recommended approval, and the applicant, Cindee Wolf, told commissioners she and local tennis advocates had worked with the county on capital improvements and that the adaptive reuse would preserve the site’s street appeal.
A commissioner moved to approve the rezoning, finding it consistent with the comprehensive plan and reasonable in the public interest due to the site’s long history of similar uses; the motion was seconded and passed unanimously.
What happens next: the conditional district and its conditions will be recorded and staff will proceed with any final permits and inspections required for the applicant’s occupancy and tenant improvements.
