a a <br /> 2 <br /> Mr. Davis is requesting the rezoning of a one point zero four (1.04) acre portion of his four point <br /> seven (4.7) acre parcel of property located at 3010 White Cross Road (TMBL 6.30..7M / PIN 9749- <br /> 40-0293): <br /> From: Agricultural Residential (AR) <br /> To: Neighborhood Commercial Two (NC-2) <br /> EXISTING LAND USES: The property subject to the rezoning petition is currently <br /> undeveloped. <br /> SURROUNDING LAND USES: NORTH: Across NC Highway 54 there are several properties <br /> zoned Local Commercial One (LC-1) and NC-2. <br /> There is a daycare/school operating out of an existing <br /> building and a contractor's office about to commence <br /> operation. <br /> SOUTH: Property to the south is zoned AR and is primarily <br /> used to support single-family residential land uses. <br /> EAST: Across White Cross Road there are several properties <br /> zoned NC-2 and Rural Residential One (R-1). There <br /> is a gas station operating to the east of the subject <br /> property and several single-family residences. <br /> WEST: Property to the west is zoned AR. There are several <br /> single-family residences to the west of the property. <br /> REASON FOR ZONING ATLAS AMENDMENT: <br /> The septic system supporting the commercially zoned property is located on the four point seven <br /> (4.7) acre AR zoned parcel.
