Z-3-90 BINGHAM TOWNSHIP - ZONING ATLAS AMENDMENT <br /> This item was presented by Emily Crudup. The purpose of this <br /> item was to consider a proposed zoning Atlas amendment in Bingham <br /> Township. The purpose of this rezoning is to make the Zoning Atlas <br /> consistent with the Land Use Element of the Comprehensive Plan.

To make the Zoning Atlas consistent with the Comprehensive <br /> Plan, the Rural Residential areas must be rezoned to Residential-1. <br /> Most of the property proposed for rezoning is located on the south side <br /> of NC Highway 54 near the White Cross Rural community Activity Node. <br /> A smaller portion is located on the north side of Dairyland Road (SR <br /> 1177) west of Dodsons Crossroads (SR 1102) . The current zoning is <br /> agricultural Residential. Residential-1 zoning is recommended to <br /> provide the consistency referenced above. <br /> The Board discussed the questioned of allowing greenhouses <br /> in the proposed zoning of R-1. Greenhouses (with on-premise sales) are <br /> not permitted in R-1 but are allowed in AR. <br /> Marvin Collins noted that in the Zoning Ordinance retail <br /> sales are not permitted in residential districts.
