REQUEST FOR AN AMENDMENT TO THE IREDELL COUNTY LAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN & A REZONING REQUEST - CASE NO. 0003-2 (William Skeen requests a property rezoning from Manufacturing Conditional Use District to Residential Agricultural District. The property location is at Triplett Road between MazeppRoad fn om NC Hwy. 801): Allison said Dr. William Skeen was requesting to rezone property Manufacturing Conditional Use to Residential Agricultural District and to amend the land development plan. The proposed use for the 43 acres would be for a residential development. The site location is at Triplett Road between Mazeppa Road and Hwy. 801; more specifically identified as PIN# 4679-02-9078. Allison said industrial development had occurred in a manner that blocked the proposed industrial development of the Skeen property. The blockage has increased the cost of supplying water and sewer. On March 1, 2000, the planning board unanimously recommended amending the land development plan and the rezoning. Dr. William Skeen said that in 1992, he requested for the property to be rezoned to the present classification of industrial. The property adjoins the South Iredell Industrial Park. Dr. Skeen said the industrial park sold the last parcel of land to Cardinal Glass, and when this occurred, it effectively cut-off a road he had planned. This made the cost for off-site development of water/sewer prohibitive. He said he had tried to buy more property to make the project feasible but was unable to do so. The property also adjoins Triplett United Methodist Church, and Skeen said he had donated two acres there for cemetery enlargement. He said residential development was occurring on the other side of the road. Commissioner Johnson asked about the topography since there was a residential section close to the manufacturing area. He questioned the proposal to add more homes due to the industrial noise. Dr. Skeen said the topography gave a good buffer. He said the backside dropped downward and there was creek. Skeen said the site would have very little development, because it was in a watershed.
