BACKGROUND: On October 10, 1985, Chandler Concrete Company was granted a secondary Land Use Plan amendment, Planned Development rezoning and Class A Special Use Permit for 1 .41 acres of land on N. C. Highway 10. The request was prompted by State mandated requirements to contain runoff from the existing concrete plant. An adjoining property owner subsequently challenged Orange County ' s approval in court. On December 12, 1986, the court ruled that the Special Use Permit was invalid since the applicant did not meet the required two-acre minimum lot size standard, and since evidence had not been presented to indicate the project would maintain the value of existing properties in the area. The affect of the court ruling was to place Chandler Concrete Company in violation of the Orange County Zoning Ordinance. Copies of County Commis- sioners and . Planning Board minutes dealing with previous deliberations on this property are contained as a separate enclosure. To correct its nonconforming status, Chandler Concrete is requesting that the Ten-Year Transition Area and Commercial -- Industrial Activity Node be expanded by an additional 0. 59 acres. Combined with the 1 .41 acres currently in the same designation , the two-acre lot size requirement could be met.
