nonresidential in this area, but not consider any design standards or standards for protection of
adjacent property owners.
Mr. Madison said he didn't have any problems with the design standards or the standards
to protect property owners. He said the problems he had were with ETJ and the Adequate Public
Facilities Ordinance.
Johnson asked Mr. Madison if he had a problem with the huge amount of area that was
being designated as ETJ, or with the concept in general.
Madison said he had a problem in general, especially when it (ETJ) had not been
requested. He said, "We don't have any understanding with the jurisdiction that, yes, they plan
to do what we've laid out. They may come in and say we want it all single-family residential on
two -acre lots. That wouldn't be real smart, but they could do that -- surely they wouldn't.
Hopefully, they will buy into this plan and it will be an easy transition from our jurisdiction to
theirs."
Commissioner Tice asked if the board would consider the plan, if the owners wanted to
move quickly to sell their properties.
Commissioner Madison said yes. He said there could even be a stipulation indicating that
the county would not transfer ETJ for 90 days or 180 days to give adequate time or notice. He
said during that time, negotiations could occur with Mooresville, and Davidson if necessary, on
what their ETJ and zoning would look like.
Commissioner Williams said he also had a problem releasing ETJ without a request from
Mooresville. Williams said he'd rather release it upon a request from Mooresville rather than
give a blanket release.
Johnson said, "As it stands right now, we are going to adopt the plan, consult with
Mooresville to see how much of this they want in Mooresville, less the Adequate Public Facilities
Ordinance."
Madison said there was also a direction to the staff and the county manager to contact
Mooresville.
Attorney Pope asked if the adoption of the plan would rezone property, or if the plan
would be used as an aid when rezoning requests were being considered.
Johnson said it would become a template -- a basis for arguing why a property should be
rezoned to a certain type of district, but that it wouldn't actually rezone. He asked Smith if this
was his understanding.
Smith said yes.
