0502-2: Planning Supervisor Warren said Mr. & Mrs. Lunsford desired to rezone
property from M-2, Heavy Manufacturing Zoning to General Business Zoning District.
Mr. Warren then summarized the following staff report.
OWNERS/APPLICANT: Clayboum B. & Jean G. Lunsford
6245 Wilkesboro Hwy
Union Grove, NC 28689-9170
LOCATION: West Memorial Hwy, more specifically a portion of PIN
4853205781. Directions: 1-77 North, exit 65, tum left onto Memorial
Hwy, the property is on the right just before 1726 W Memorial Hwy.
REQUESTED ACTION: Rezone a portion of the property from M-2,
Heavy Manufacturing Zoning District to GB, General Business Zoning
District.
PROPOSED USE: CPA office
SIZE: The portion of the parcel that is proposed to be rezoned is 1.46
acres. The entire parcel is 3.53 acres.
EXISTING LAND USE: Commercial
SURROUNDING LAND USE: Residential, commercial, and vacant
WATERSHED REGULATIONS: This property is not located in a
watershed.
TRAFFIC: The capacity for this stretch of West Memorial Highway is
9,000 vehicles per day. In 2003, the estimated daily traffic count was
5,200 vehicles per day. Down zoning this property would likely increase
the traffic along this stretch of W. Memorial Highway. However, the
possible impacts would not bring the road close to the maximum
carrying capacity.
ZONING HISTORY: This property has been zoned M-2 since
Countywide zoning went into effect in 1990. The GB property to the
east was rezoned from M-2 in 2003, Case #0303-3.
STAFF COMMENTS: The rezoning of this property to GB still allows
for some lower intensity industrial uses but also allows for other uses
such as the one that the applicant proposes. Presently this node has no
industrial uses but has been developed with retail uses. The rezoning in
2003 further substantiates that this node is being developed as retail
