county -wide zoning took effect, the property was designated RA;
however, the use of the property at that time was light
manufacturing. (The Statesville Industrial Park did not then
exist, but now, this area is zoned heavy industrial.) In order for
the Reavis business to grow and expand, Hunter explained another
building needed to be built. (The business has operated for 20
years.) Hunter said the property in question was "slim" in
character, "its much deeper than wide." Reavis' business is a
display/show lot situation, and there isn't room to build a street
to access the back part of the site. The request is to rezone the
entire property on the southside of Highway 70 to M-1.
Commissioner Boone asked Mr. Hunter where the building was
supposed to be built. Hunter said it had not actually been
determined, but probably somewhere around 825-845 feet to the
eastside.
James Davidson (Chairman -Trustee Board/Elmwood AME Zion
Churchl: Indicated his congregation didn't want to prevent Mr.
Reavis from constructing the building, but the church had services
during the week nights and services on Sundays. He asked where the
building was to be established and how much noise would be emitted.
"Will the building be located on the highway west of the present
building?"
Hunter explained the business had never operated after 6:00
p.m. The extent of the noise would be air compressors. Mr.
Hunter said the building would be located about one-half way down
on the lot.

REQUEST FOR PROPOSED AMENDMENT TO IREDELL CO. LAND DEVELOPMENT
PLAN: REZONING REQUEST; DAVID RANEIN PROPERTY, CASE NO. 9701-2:
Allison explained the owner of this property desired to rezone from
RA, Residential to GB, General Business District. The proposed
usage of the site (1.7 acres) would be for a small woodworking
equipment repair and training shop, storage of woodworking
equipment, and light woodworking. Location of the property is on
Robincrest Drive off Talley Road; more specifically identified as
PIN/4731013802. The property is located in an established
residential district and does not border another commercial zone.
Also, the parcel is not located in a general commercial node as
designated by the Land Development Plan. Some of the other land
uses associated with the proposed General Business designation
could have an adverse effect on the surrounding neighborhood. The
planning staff recommends disapproval. Allison said Mr. Rankin has
the right to operate a rural home occupation (which would include
this type of development) in a 2,000 sq.ft. building as long as the
requirements of the zoning ordinance are met. The applicant also
has the option of petitioning the Board of Adjustment for a Special
Use Permit in order to operate a rural home occupation in a
building up to 3500 sq.ft. in area. On January 8, 1997, the
planning board unanimously recommended denial of this request in a
6-0 vote.
