Development Services staff recommends denial of the proposed rezoning based on the incompatibility with the future land use map and the surrounding land uses in the vicinity. The RA-20R zoning district allows for higher intensity uses and smaller lot sizes than the current zoning district, RA-30, which could result in an unreasonable impact to the surrounding community. Additional Infomration: On August 7th, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend denial of the rezoning. The Planning Board stated that the desired minimum lot size in the requested zoning district could be permitted in the current zoning district if the applicant developed the property using other processes, such as utilizing the County’s Compatibility Design Concept table or developing the property as Planned Unit Development. - One citizen expressed concern that development of the property would increase water runoff and adversely impact his adjacent family farm, which is downhill from the subject property.

Yes No The requested zoning district is COMPATIBLE with the existing Land Use Classification. REASONING: The requested rezoning is not compatible with the Agricultural and Rural Residential land use classification. The Agricultural and Rural Residential land use classification is designed to limit impacts on agricultural operations by encouraging low density residential developments with densities of up to 1 unit per acre. The proposed rezoning of the property would potentially allow for more residential units than what is compatible with the underlying land use. Yes No The proposal does ENHANCE or maintain the public health, safety and general welfare. REASONING: The proposal does not enhance or maintain the public health, safety, and general welfare. The proposal could potentially allow for higher intensity land uses and residential developments with more units, which is incompatible with the established low-density development patterns and ongoing agricultural activities in the vicinity. Yes No The request is for a SMALL SCALE REZONING and should be evaluated for reasonableness. REASONING: The request is not for a small scale rezoning and does not need to be evaluated for reasonableness. The parcel is approximately 95 acres and a portion of the property is currently located within the requested zoning district. Suggested Statement-of-Consistency (Staff concludes that…) As stated in the evaluation, the requested rezoning to RA-20R would have an unreasonable impact on the surrounding community based on incompatibility with the County’s Land Use Plan and the surrounding land uses in the vicinity. Therefore, it is recommended that this rezoning request be DENIED. Planning Board Information On August 7, the Harnett County Planning Board voted unanimously (4-0) to recommend denial of the rezoning. The Planning Board stated that the desired minimum lot size in the requested zoning district could be permitted in the current zoning district if the applicant developed the property using other processes, such as utilizing the County’s Compatibility Design Concept table or developing the property as Planned Unit Development. - One citizen expressed concern that development of the property would increase water runoff and adversely impact his adjacent family farm, which is downhill from the subject property. Standards of Review and Worksheet TYPICAL REVIEW STANDARDS The Planning Board shall consider and make recommendations to the County Board of Commissioners concerning each proposed zoning district.
