Directions: Take East Broad Street to Mocksville Highway, turn right and site is on right just past Vance PO Road. • REOUESTED ACTION: Rezone a small portion of land, approximately 0. 15 acres from R-20 to GB and amend the Iredell Land Use Plan. PROPOSED USE: Retail store SIZE: 0.15 acres, an approximately 45' X 145' area EXISTING LAND USE: Vacant SURROUNDING LAND USE: Vacant property on all sides with gas station across Mocksville Highway. WATERSHED REGULATIONS: The subject parcel is not located within a water shed. TRAFFIC: This section of Mocksville Highway had an average of 7,700 vehicles per day in 2005; according to the 1993 Iredell County Thoroughfare Plan, this section of Mocksville Highway has a carrying capacity of 12,000 vehicles per day. ZONING HISTORY: The subject parcel was zoned to R-20 when countywide zoning took effect in 1990. A rezoning was approved in December of 1986 to change several parcels west of Vance PO Road and south of Mocksville Highway from R-20 to Community Business. A more recent request was approved in April of 2001 to rezone a parcel northwest of the Bell Farm Road and Mocksville Highway intersection from R-20 to GB. General Business zoning is the predominate zoning along the Mocksville Highway corridor at the Vance Road and Bell Farm Road intersections. STAFF COMMENTS: The applicant is seeking to rezone this small portion that is to be recombined with an existing parcel that fronts Mocksville Highway. The applicant's site plan requires this additional GB zoning to accommodate a planned retail store and associated buffer area. Staff is recommending for this request since the planned retail store would be in conformance with the Iredell County Land Use Plan and the required plan amendment is necessary for this small sliver of land that will serve as the buffer yard and support the rear wall of proposed building. PLANNING BOARD ACTION: On January 3, 2007 the Planning Board voted 10-0 to recommend approval for both the land use plan amendment and rezoning request. No one else desired to speak, and Chairman Norman adjourned the hearing. v1OTI0 by Commissioner Williams to amend the Iredell County Land Use Plan. VOTING: Ayes — 5; Nays — 0.
