1917 Shelton Avenue Piedmont Realty
Statesville, NC 28677 PO Box 1654
Statesville, NC 28687
LOCATION: 1032' north of Flower House Loop adjacent to I-77, more
specifically identified as PIN# 4740-81-0901. Directions: Highway 115
south, on the left behind the mobile home sales lots.
REQUESTED ACTION AND CONDITIONS: Rezone the property from
R -A, Residential Agricultural Zoning District to GB, General Business
Zoning District.
PROPOSED USE: The owner is proposing to combine this lot with the 35
acres that he owns adjoining this property, which is already zoned GB. He
wants to create a planned development for light industrial uses.
SIZE: The total acreage is 6.64 acres.
EXISTING LAND USE: Vacant
SURROUNDINr LAND USE: Vacant residentially and commercially
zoned property and 1-77
WATERSHED REGULATIONS: The property is not located in a
watershed.
TRAFFIC: This property does not have direct access to a road right-of-
way. The capacity for the stretch of Charlotte Highway, the proposed
access for the property, is 40,000 vehicles per day. In 2003, the estimated
daily traffic count was 11,000 vehicles per day. Rezoning this property
would likely increase the traffic along This stretch of Charlotte Highway.
However, the possible impacts should not bring the road close to the
maximum carrying capacity.
ZONING HISTORY: This property has been zoned RA since countywide
zoning went into effect in 1990. On July 16, 2002, the Board of
Commissioners approved a rezoning on the adjacent parcel to GB CUD
for this same owner. The conditions were:
1) Underground unities
2) Site Development Plan to provide for shared parking with
adjacent parcel
3) Site Development Plan to provide for future interconnectivity
between adjacent properties.
STAFF COMMENTS: This request is in compliance with the standards
recommended in the Exit 42 Study. It is located in an area designated for
Interchange Commercial, which fits in the GB zoning district. Therefore
staff recommends in favor of this request with the same conditions that
were placed on the adjacent parcel in 2002, which are:
1. Underground utilities
2. Site Development Plan to provide for shared parking with
adjacent parcel
3. Site Development Plan to provide for future interconnectivity
between adjacent properties.
PLANNING BOARD RECOMMENDATION: On June 1, 2005, the
Planning Board recommended in favor of this rezoning request without the
conditions recommended by staff, by a vote of 9-1.
