PROPOSED USE: GB uses, potentially including a family-owned heating and
air conditioning contractor facility, subject to specific site -development
conditions.

building.
SURROUNDING LAND USE: Residential, Commercial.
WATERSHED REGULATIONS: The subject parcel is not located within a
Watershed area.
TRAFFIC: In 2004 there was an average daily traffic count of 11,000 vehicles
per day on this stretch of Highway 21, with an approximate carrying capacity of
10,500 according to the NCDOT Thoroughfare Plan.
ZONING HISTORY: The subject parcels have been zoned RA since
countywide zoning took effect in 1990.
STAFF COMMENTS: The applicants seek to rezone the subject parcels along
US 21 to accommodate future commercial growth. They have intentions of
locating a family-owned business at this location (Troutman Heating & Air).
The GB district itself is consistent with the objectives of the Exit -42 Small -
Area Plan, and the conditions proposed encourage the continuation of site-
specific development criteria along the Charlotte Highway corridor. Several
other parcels have been similarly rezoned GB -CUD along this stretch in recent
months and years, and these commercial zonings have involved these same
conditions. Because the proposed rezoning follows this pattern as well as the
intent of commercial growth near the Exit 42 interchange, staff recommends in
favor of this request.
