receive evidence and public comment regarding the application for a class A special use <br />permit to allow the existing structure to be used as the Olive Branch Inn Bed and <br />Breakfast. She said that bed and breakfast establishments are permitted upon approval of <br />the class A special use permit by the Board of County Commissianers under use category <br />S54, Historic Sites, Nan-residential, Mixed Use in article 8 of the zoning ordinance. She <br />made reference to the property on the County map stating that it is located on NC 57 in <br />Caldwell. The zoning is rural residential, or R1 and it is in the Little River Protected <br />Watershed. The surrounding adjacent property use is essentially R1, rural residential and <br />agricultural residential, AR. The property contains 47.17 acres. The applicant is <br />requesting the use of three rooms with restroom facilities and a common dining roam area. <br />Na changes to the house are proposed as part of this application. Per section 2.28 of the <br />Orange County Environmental Impact Ordinance, the applicant was required to submit an <br />environmental assessment since the property was identified in an inventory of sites of <br />cultural, historic, recreational, biological, and geological significance in the unincorporated <br />portions of the County. This house has been placed an the National Register of Historic <br />Places. The Planning staff has forwarded the EA and supplemental materials to the North <br />Carolina State Clearinghouse and is awaiting comments. Subject to the comments from <br />the state clearinghouse, the application appears to meet the County requirements at this <br />point. Therefore, the Planning Department is recommending approval of the class A <br />special use permit subject to the eight conditions. The administration is recommending <br />that the Board refer the class A special use permit to the Historic Preservation Commission <br />to determine whether the proposed use maintains the historic character of the house and <br />property as required in the Orange County zoning ordinance and then to the Planning <br />Board for a recommendation on the SUP to be returned to the County Commissianers no <br />sooner than August 21, 2001. <br />Commissioner Carey asked about the significance of condition #7, which is the <br />requirement to dedicate the property within the right-of--way and the small portion on the <br />eastern side of the right-of--way to NCDOT or Orange County prior to commencing <br />operation. Craig Benedict said that when the applicant submitted the application the deed <br />included the entire roadway. There had not been any right-af--way easements acquired by <br />NCDOT. With any new proposal that comes in, that is the time to acquire the right-of--way. <br />Commissioner Brawn asked about a piece of property down the road from her <br />where the people own the property across the intersection and they do not pay taxes on <br />that portion. Craig Benedict will get an answer to this question. <br />Commissioner Jacobs asked if it was standard for special use permits to be valid <br />far six years. Geoffrey Gledhill said that Orange County's ordinance limits the period of a <br />special use permit to six years. <br />Commissioner Jacobs asked about landscaping as mentioned on pages 42 to <br />45 and asked for an explanation of the partial landscape waiver for a visibility corridor. <br />Craig Benedict said that the purpose of a partial landscape waiver far the frontage is so <br />that the historical view of the house can still be maintained. There will also be a place for a <br />conservative sign and the sign will not obstruct the view of the house. <br />Commissioner Jacobs made reference to condition #4 and said that he is aware <br />of at least three instances where the Fire Marshall was not included in the process of <br />approval in a timely fashion so that people had to redo things and had to do things that <br />were counter to policies that we were pursuing. He would like to be sure that there is <br />better coordination between the Fire Marshall and the County's Inspection staff. <br />Chair Halkiotis asked how much land is involved across NC 57. Craig Benedict <br />said that it is approximately one acre of land 75 feet wide through a portion of the property. <br />It is an issue we have been discussing with the Department of Transportation to correct the <br />
