REZONING REQUEST: HARRILL B. & KAREN B. WIGGINS PROPERTY,
CABS NO. 9512-3t Mr. William Allison reported that little
progress had been made in trying to find a workable solution for
this case that was continued from the January 2 meeting. Several
discussions have taken place with the Wiggins' attorney, Mr. Bob
Randall. Allison stated that originally the proposed building
was supposed to be 5,000 sq. ft., however, he now understands the
size is up to 7,200 sq. ft.
Commissioner Boone asked what was discussed with the
attorney in order to resolve the matter. Allison said that
sizing down the operation was one idea. He mentioned that if the
planning staff became too specific this matter could be referred
to as "contract zoning."
The following is a brief history submitted by the planning
dept.
6/19/90 - County adopted County -Wide Zoning. At this time,
the Harrill Wiggins property and the Wiggins Road area was given
the zoning classification of RA, Residential Agricultural
District.
9/10/90 - Harrill Wiggins applied for a permit to build a
pole building for farm storage. The County Inspection Department
issued a permit for 2,520 sq. ft.
1/7/91 - Complaint was filed by the owner of parcel 1N -A -13F
(Satterwhite) who stated that a go-kart business was being run
out of the new building. Rural Home Occupations are permitted in
that district subject to restrictions identified in Section 77.
only a portion of the building was being used for the kart works
business, and no zoning violation was found at that time.
11/16/95 - Harrill S. & Karen Wiggins applied to rezone six
acres of their property from RA, Residential Agricultural to GB,
General Business District.
Subject to Section 60. (Nonconformances), the Wiggins family
would not be eligible for an expansion of a nonconforming use,
due to the business not being in place prior to June 19, 1990.
However, they would be eligible to apply for a special use permit
