commercial node at the intersection of Brookhaven Road and Highway 115.

did not appear residential. He said a business of some type had been located at the comer ever
since the early 1900s. Mr. Williams said there was also a gravel business near the site. In
addition, Mr. Williams said he personally knew the stained glass business owners, and he felt
sure that anything they built would be a "credit to the community."

Rezoning Request; Don Horton Jr., & John F. Meadows Property, Case No. 0409-3
(PIN# 4773-24-7684) Applicants Request to Rezone Property from Residential Agricultural
to Neighborhood Business Conditional Use District (Location: 2874 Salisbury Highway,
Statesville, NC): Planning Supervisor Smith described this request and presented the
following staff report.
REOUESTED ACTION AND CONDITIONS: Rezone property from RA, Residential
Agricultural Zoning District to NB -CUD, Neighborhood Business Conditional Use
District Zoning District. The conditions for the rezoning request are:
• Restaurant business will not be open past 10:00 p.m.
• No alcohol sales before 12 PM on Sundays.
• Extension of the required landscaped buffer straight across the southern property
line to PIN 4773-24-9612 to exclude the small strip of property that runs to
Community Lane as shown on a zoning map.
PROPOSED USE: Restaurant and/or convenience store
SIZE: The parcel is .88 acres.
EXISTING LAND USE: Commercial
SURROUNDING LAND USE: Residential
TRAFFIC: According to the 1993 Iredell County Thoroughfare Plan, the capacity for
this stretch of roadway is 10,500 vehicles per day. The estimated daily traffic count in
2002 was 10,000 vehicles per day. The new design of Highway 70 will bring the road
south of this parcel, leaving this section as only a local road.
ZONING HISTORY: This property has been zoned RA since Countywide zoning was
established in 1990. On June 2, 2004, the applicant withdrew a rezoning request to
discuss conditions with area owners. On August 4, 2004, the applicants withdrew a
rezoning request to discuss the purchase of property with an area church.
STAFF COMMENTS: The restaurant building located on the property has been there
since at least 1984. The use was a legal non -conforming business until the use was
vacated for over the one-year allowance. The conditions for this request will, hopefully,
allay some of the concerns from the area residents. The Highway 70 Corridor Plan
designates this area as Consumer Commercial, which would allow the proposed uses.
