wpoke regarding his property.

vandenburg Church.
The pastor of the Vandenburg Church was present and said his church members
voted to ask that the property remain zoned as it presently is.
Mr. Smith said his business would be located lh to 1� miles from the church,
and he wanted to tear down the old building and put up a new building. He has 2h
acres in his tract and has owned the property for twenty years. The business will
be on S. R. 1310 and not on N. C.115, where the church cemetery is located.
The pastor of Vandenburg Church said his parishioners' objection to the rezoning
was the fear of other businesses coming into the area and perhaps the sale of alco-
holic beverages, not so much the concern of the tire sales business.
No one esle spoke regarding this rezoning.
