The Planning Staff recommends approval of rezoning the property from Community Commercial-3 to Existing Commercial-5. The Planning Board will prepare a recommendation on the proposed amendment at its December l9, 1988 meeting. The Board of Commissioners will consider the proposal for decision on January 3, 1989. Commissioner Hartwell asked what benefit this rezoning would have for the applicant. Crudup responded that there are existing commercial structures, warehouses, on the property. The use proposed by the applicant is not allowed in CC-3 but is allowed in EC-5.

Planning Soard member, Steve Yuhasz, asked why the EC-5 designation was not assigned at the tiime the node was removed. Crudup responded that it was an oversight at the time and should have been EC-5. Yuhasz asked about buffer requirements. Crudup responded that the landscape requirements are very similar for EG-5 and CC-3. Motion was made by Commissioner Hartwell, seconded by Commissioner Marshall to refer Z-S-88 to the Planning Board for a recommendation to be brought back to the Soard of Commissioners no sooner than January 3, 1989.

The property in question is located on the north side of US Highway 70 approximately 385 feet west of the intersection with Buckhorn Road (SR lll4). The applicant, Dale G. Davis, is requesting a rezoning of Lot 9 of Tax Map 2S - Cheeks Township. The property proposed to be rezoned contains 51.712 square feet or 1.19 acres. The current zoning of the property is R-1 (Rural Residential) and PW II (Protected Watershed). The proposed rezoning is EC-S (Existing Commercial) and PW II (Protected Watershed). The area is designated as 10 Ten Year Transition in the Land Use Plan. The applicant indicates that the existing use was in operation in 1984 when Cheeks Township was zoned. The existing commercial building is located on two lots and the lot line runs through the building. Only one of these lots was zoned commercial in 1984.
