Frye said he had owned the land since about 1978, and he had built his house before the car auction owned the land next to him. Ray Allison -Proponent /Lives adlacent to the property in question: Advised that his wife had lived in the area all her life. Indicated he and his wife had no opposition to the company bringing in cars and temporarily rezoning the area. Questioned the petition and where some of the signers resided. Rev. Redmond: Advised that all of the people that signed the new petition reside on Carl Austin Road. All of the signers (42) are adults. Commissioner Fortner asked about the old petition. She asked whether or not the planning board had used the old petition in its decision. Redmond said he would assume this was correct; however, the new petition was signed by only residents of Carl Austin Road. Preston Frye -Opposition (Parents live in the Area): Mentioned he was in the area around two hours per day. Advised he was a mechanic and felt the land would never be given back in the condition it was found due to the anti -freeze, power -steering fluid, and transmission fluid that would leak into the soil. Chairman Haire declared the public hearing closed. MOTION by Commissioner Boone to deny the rezoning request. (Boone said this was typical of many rezoning requests. There are two legitimate sides -- it's not all right and it's not all wrong. The Auto Auction is a good business and Boone said he was glad it operated in Iredell County. In trying to be objective, Boone said he looked at two issues (1) the Land Development Plan would have to be amended (2) the planning board had voted to reject the request in a 6-1 vote.) VOTING: Ayes - 4; Nays - 1 (Fortner) Chairman Haire declared the meeting to be in public hearing session. REZONING REQUEST; CHRIS A. A FRANK D. DAVIDSON AND GUY SAMUEL CARR PROPERTY, CASE NO. 9611-39 Mr. Allison said the owners desired to rezone from RA, Residential Agricultural to GB(CUD), General Business Conditional Use District to allow only a cabinet shop. The property is located on Old Mountain Road near the intersection of Buffalo Shoals Road (Kyles Crossroads); more specifically identified as Lot 41 and a portion of Lot 45, Block A, of Iredell County Tax Map 6C-2. Allison advised the property was found near two established Neighborhood Business zones and an existing residential district. The property is also located in a general commercial node as identified by the Land Development Plan. The lots, however, are on the edge of a substantial residential area that would lend itself to a less intensive type of land use designation. On November 6, 1996, the Iredell County Planning Board unanimously approved the rezoning (allow only a cabinet shop). Allison said he was recommending that the condition be cabinet shops and all uses in the NB district. Chairman Haire adjourned the public hearing. MOTION by Commissioner Johnson to grant this request and allow the rezoning from RA to GB(CUD) for a cabinet shop and other uses of the Neighborhood Business nature. VOTING: Ayes - 5; Nays - 0. Chairman Haire declared the meeting to be in public hearing. DEC 031 1996 56"1
