PUBLIC HEARINGS
REZONING REQUEST; REX BEAVER PROPERTY, CASE NO. 9610-2:
William Allison explained that the owner (Rex Beaver) and applicant
(Ann Beaver Sechrist) requested to rezone the property from R-
20/Single Family Residential to RA/Residential Agricultural. The
property is located in Valley Springs Subdivision on Floyd Lane off
Mocksville Hwy/US64E; more specifically identified as Lot 22 Block
A, of Iredell County Tax Map 5S-15. Proposed usage of the site
(2.7 acres) would be for a manufactured home. The property is
located in an area predominately occupied by manufactured housing;
however, the current zoning designation does not permit the
placement of new manufactured homes in the area. Since the request
is for one parcel only, and it is surrounded by R-20 zoning
(prohibits manufactured housing), the staff feels the rezoning
should be denied. In addition, on October 2, 1996, the Planning
Board unanimously denied the request in a 9-0 vote.
Commissioner Johnson asked if the site was surrounded by
R-20. Allison responded the entire area (radius of 1,000 ft) was
R-20. Across the street is a nonconforming (grandfathered) mobile
home park.
Millard Thorn• Advised that his property (stick -built home)
adjoined part of the site. Mentioned that the manufactured homes
referred to by Mr. Allison are on the opposite side of the
property. Most everyone else has a stick -built home.
Pame__ya B+r__ She and her husband own the property that
adjoins the backside of the site. Concerned about the requested RA
designation, because she does not want businesses in the area.
Expressed concern also about traffic on the road since it is
privately maintained by the residents. Burr mentioned that she
felt her property would depreciate if it was rezoned RA.
LucretiaStroud: Owns an acre of land that connects to the
property. Mentioned that a water branch runs through the area and
