Agricultural & Neighborhood Business Conditional Use District to Neighborhood Business

Norman said Case No. 0611-3 was postponed from the December 5 meeting. He announced that
citizens would be allowed to briefly speak, even though the public hearing had already been held.
Eric Wood, with Pilot Developers, and the owner of the property, requested that the case
be postponed another thirty days. He said a property appraisal was being obtained, and the
Department of Transportation had been contacted about the rights-of-way. Mr. Wood said
"something in writing" would be available soon.
No one else desired to speak.
OTIO by Commissioner Robertson to postpone Case No. 0611-3 (J.C. Faw
Property) for 30 days or to the February 6, 2007 meeting.
Commissioner Johnson said his primary concern at the December 5 meeting was not so
much about the rezoning, but rather it was the issue of a property owner surrendering property
without just compensation. He suggested an amendment to Commissioner Robertson's motion as
follows:
Instruct Mr. Warren (Planning Department) to inform people, who were considering the
rezoning of property along the Brawley School Road, that the Iredell County Board of
Commissioners preferred for them to negotiate with the State Department of Transportation
before they requested the rezoning. (He said this way, if the owner wanted to either give or sell
property to the DOT, at a negotiated price, this would be fine -- there would be no coercion from
anyone -- property owners wouldn't feel they had to give up something in order to receive a
rezoning.)
Commissioner Robertson accepted the amendment, and it is a part of the motion.
VOTING: Ayes — 5; Nays — 0.
