Mark Locklear, Director of Development Services, petitioned the Board for a public hearing on the proposed zoning change Case # PLAN 1905-0002, Landowner/Applicant: Harriet Marshall & Vivian Clark Chance, et al / Vivian Chance, Erwin McNeil, Harold Gilchrist, Thelene Smith, Sharon Clark, Rita Clark, Doris Clark, & heirs; 12.31 -acre tract; Pin # 9594-25-5026; From Commercial to RA -20R; NC 24/87; Anderson Creek Township. Per the application, the Commercial property tax has become a burden to the owners. The Harnett County Planning Board, on August 5, 2019, voted unanimously (5-0) to deny this request based on the need for non-residential land and the idea that the owners will continue to attempt to sell this parcel for Commercial development. Mr. Locklear noted that staff had discussed other options, instead of trying to rezone the property back to Residential, with the applicants. The applicants are now asking that their case be tabled until next month so that they can explore the options presented to them and see if any are viable. Chairman Springle called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. John Chance of 2619 Hwy 24-87 in Cameron, on behalf of the applicants/family, said the family is in favor of tabling this case. Seeing no one else move, Chairman Springle closed the public hearing. Commissioner Miller moved to table the requested rezoning until September 16, 2019. Vice Chairman Penny seconded the motion that passed unanimously. Mr. Locklear petitioned the Board for a public hearing regarding the proposed zoning change Case # PLAN 1906-0003, Landowner/Applicant: Christine G. Williams/ Christine G. Williams; 3.32 acres; Pin # 0568-03-9311.000; From RA -20R & Industrial to Commercial & RA -20R; US 401 South; Lillington Township. Mr. Locklear noted the Harnett County Planning Board, during their August 5, 2019 meeting, voted unanimously (5-0) to recommend approval of the application based on the parcel's history of uses. He said one citizen voiced concerns about traffic & noise. The site was home to the former C&G Club and a few other former establishments. It is currently split -zoned, but if this request is approved a plat will be reviewed, then recorded to create two (2) parcels; a 2.19 acre Commercial tract & a 1.12 acre RA -20R tract. Surrounding land uses consist of individual single-family residences and several nonresidential/Industrial uses. Located in the general vicinity are approximately 1,363 acres of Industrial on 22 lots. 50 acres are occupied by Champion Home manufacturing facility. Services available include Harnett County water and sewer. Mr. Locklear stated staff's evaluation as: - The IMPACT to the adjacent property owners and the surrounding community is reasonable, and the benefits of the rezoning outweigh any potential inconvenience or August 19, 2019 Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 4 of 9 harm to the community. REASONING: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable, as there are several comparable uses and zoned parcels in the area. The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning district of RA -20R is compatible with the existing land use classification of Ag & Rural Residential. The proposed Commercial is compatible due to the area's similar uses as well as the public infrastructure available. The definition of Ag & Rural Residential refers to areas that "lack of utility and transportation infrastructure." Public water & sewer is available and the site has direct access to US 401. A Land Use map amendment would be appropriate to facilitate future economic development endeavors. The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The proposal does enhance or maintain the overall general welfare as the requested rezoning districts are compatible with the parcel's history of uses as well as being compatible with adjacent uses in the area. The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: Due to the size of the tract this application does not have to be evaluated for Small Scale Rezoning. Suggested Statement -of -Consistency: Staff concludes that the requested rezoning to RA -20R and Commercial is compatible with Harnett County regulatory documents and would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on the parcel's history of uses as well as being compatible with adjacent uses in the area therefore it is recommended that this rezoning request be approved. Additionally, staff recommends a future Land Use map amendment to include an Employment Mixed Use node for this area due to the presence of existing nonresidential uses and amount of nonresidential -zoned parcels. Chairman Springle called to order a public hearing on the matter and opened the meeting for comments from the public. Seeing no one move, Chairman Springle closed the public hearing. Vice Chairman Penny moved to approve the requested rezoning From RA -20R & Industrial to Commercial & RA -20R as it is compatible with Harnett County regulatory documents and would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on the previous uses on this parcel as well as the similar uses within the area. Commissioner McKoy seconded the motion that passed unanimously. Mr. Locklear petitioned the Board for a public hearing regarding the proposed zoning change Case # PLAN 1906-0004, Landowner/Applicant: Forever Clean Portable Toilets, Inc; 6.16 +/- acres; Pin # 0653-42-1702.000; From RA -20M to Light Industrial; US Hwy 401 North; Hector's Creek Township. Mr. Locklear reported that on August 5, 2019, the Harnett County Planning Board voted 5-0 to recommend approval of this of the application based on the existing business as well as overall compliance with the Land Use Plan. He said one citizen spoke in opposition stating issues pertaining to lack of/improving buffering, safety concerns regarding traffic, noise due to the rock August 19, 2019 Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 5 of 9 crushing machine as well as the smell from pump trucks and holding tanks. He noted two citizens had general comments/ questions, and three spoke in favor. The site is currently occupied by an existing business. Staff noted this business received a Conditional Use Permit for office and outdoor storage on December 12, 2016 however; the rock crushing was outside of what the business was allowed to do. Area land uses include Agricultural and Single family residential. There is also a commercial parcel within 1,500' and a school within Y2 mile. Services available include Harnett County public water and private septic tank. Mr. Locklear stated staffs evaluation as: 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: The impact to the surrounding community is reasonable, as the requested zoning district is compatible with nonresidential growth patterns if this area and the County's Land Use Plan. The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested zoning to Light Industrial is compatible with the overall land use classification of Employment Mixed Use, as well as within the Compatibility Development Target area. Per the County's Land Use Plan Employment Mixed Use areas "are located along major thoroughfares and include prime locations for economic development opportunities". The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The requested rezoning enhance or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare due to the longevity of the business, its potential growth as well as potential site improvements that could take place. The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: Due to the size of this parcel and Land Use classification, this application does not need to be considered for Small Scale Rezoning. Suggested Statement -of -Consistency: Staff concludes that the requested rezoning to Light Industrial would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on the nonresidential growth patterns of this area as well as compliance with the County's Land Use Plan.

August 19, 2019 Regular Meeting Minutes Harnett County Board of Commissioners Page 6 of 9 Mr. Locklear said if this property is rezoned Light Industrial then the applicant will be required to revise his site plan to include his new operation on the site, which would include some additional buffering and maybe they could address some of the issues that came up tonight. Mr. Locklear also reminded the Board there are many uses allowed within Light Industrial.
