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: The requested zoning change to Commercial will not have a negative
impact on the community as it is similar in nature to existing zoning districts and
development patterns in this area.
Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification.
REASONING: The requested zoning district is compatible with the existing Land Use
classification of Employment Mixed Use. This whole area is also within the Compatibility
Development Target area. These two designations highlight growing areas of the
County that consist of planned residential areas mixed with a variety of nonresidential
uses.
Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The requested rezoning to Commercial would maintain or enhance the
public health, safety, and general welfare due to the area’s existing commercial uses as
well as the potential site improvements that would be required.
Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for
reasonableness.
REASONING: Due to the size of the tract and the proposed zoning district exists directly
across the street, this application does not need to be evaluated for Small Scale
Rezoning.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to Commercial would not have an unreasonable
impact on the surrounding community based on being compatible with Harnett County Land Use Plan as
well as the existing nonresidential uses in this area. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning
request be APPROVED.

classification would be in the general public interest and not merely in the interest of the
individual or small group.
Yes No C. There is convincing demonstration that all uses permitted under the proposed district
classification would be appropriate in the area included in the proposed change. (When
a new district designation is assigned, any use permitted in the district is allowable, so
long as it meets district requirements, and not merely uses which applicants state they
intend to make of the property involved.)

materially and adversely affected by any use permitted in the proposed change.

classification would be in the general public interest and not merely in the interest of the
individual or small group.

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: 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
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 a Rural Center development node. Rural Center development nodes are
“small scale commercial centers”. These areas can be suburban in nature and contain
smaller, nonresidential uses.
Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare.
REASONING: The requested rezoning to Commercial, whose intent is to promote the
development of business and institutional uses, would enhance or maintain the public
health, safety, and general welfare due to the neighboring Commercial zoned parcels.
Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for
reasonableness.
REASONING: Since the proposed zoning district exists on contiguous properties, this
application does not need to be evaluated for Small Scale Rezoning.
Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…)
As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to Commercial is compatible with Harnett County
Land Use Plan and would not have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on the
existing commercial in the area. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request be APPROVED.
