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.
