REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF JURISDICTION: LandCraft Properties, Inc.

The property is located within 1,400 feet of Mooresville's corporate limits and has approximately 2,000 feet of road frontage already in the Town's extraterritorial zoning jurisdiction (ETJ). Currently, the property has no access other than N.C. Highway 150 which is controlled by Mooresville. The proposed subdivision is in compliance with the Town's Land Use and Capital Improvement Plan for future development. John Freeman. Attorney for LandCraft Properties, Inc., said his client had a contract to purchase the property. Freeman said a portion ofthe property was already included in Mooresville's ETJ. He said LandCraft intended to build a single-family, moderately -priced development and ask the Town of Mooresville for R-8 zoning Freeman said R-8 zoning would allow 2.7 units per acre. lie said it would take four to five years before the project could be completely finished. Out of the 200 acres, approximately 60 would be left as "green space" This space would cover about three- fourths of the project's boundary and the other section would have a 50 -foot undisturbed buffer. Freeman said the property was in Mooresville's capital improvement area for future water and sewer development.
