Additional Information
As required for all zoning changes, within a five mile radius of Fort Bragg, RLUAC (Regional Land Use
Advisory Commission) was contacted, and did not have any comments.
On February 1st, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously (5-0) to recommend approval of
this Rezoning application based on the compatibility to the surrounding properties as well as adjacent
zoning district.
Evaluation
Yes No The IMPACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is
reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or
harm to the community.
REASONING: In the vicinity of the subject property, non-residential development has
progressed at a stable pace. The requested zoning change to Commercial will not have
a negative impact on the surrounding properties or the community as it is similar in
nature to certain existing zoning districts in the area.
Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification.
REASONING: The requested zoning is compatible with the existing Land Use
classification of Compact Mixed Use. The Compact Mixed activity centers are “growing
areas of the county”. They encourage a different combination of uses such as:
commercial, civic, institutional, as well as single family and multi-family developments.
Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The proposed commercial zoning is more appropriate for this site due to
properties to the North and South zoned commercial as well as the adjacent property.
The proposed zoning would enhance the public health and general welfare.

Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for
reasonableness
REASONING: This request does not need to be evaluated for a small scale rezoning, due
to the property’s size as well as it being adjacent to the proposed zoning district.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
The requested rezoning to Commercial is compatible with Harnett County regulatory documents and
would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community and will enhance the public health,
safety, and general welfare for the reasons stated in the evaluation. It is recommended that this rezoning
request be APPROVED.
