The purpose is to direct <br /> commercial and industrial uses to the most appropriate areas <br /> of the Township, prevent strip development, and promote a <br /> more efficient and clustered land use pattern that takes <br /> advantage of major intersections and existing community <br /> identities. <br /> Three types of activity nodes are appropriate for Cedar <br /> Grove Township ; Rural Community and Rural Industrial , with <br /> radii of 1 /2 mile and Rural Neighborhood with a 1/4 mile <br /> radius . A total of six activity nodes have been designated <br /> in Cedar Grove Township. <br /> REFERENCE: CG-1 , Carr <br /> LOCATION: NC 49 and Carr Store Road (SR 1004 ) <br /> PLAN CATEGORY: Rural Community <br /> ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION : Existing land uses at this node <br /> include a small store, a car wash and single family <br /> residential units.
