36 <br /> 2 <br /> process; fees may be too high and the process too long for residential uses. <br /> (Norman Hester) <br /> - Commercial uses that desire high volume traffic should be limited to <br /> establishment on lots with NC 54 frontage. (Tom Whisnant) <br /> Do not allow waste management facilities from the list of permitted uses (S52). <br /> (John Santucci) <br /> - Did not want to allow stock yards (S49), waste management facilities; hazardous <br /> & toxic (S52). <br /> The difficulty and expense of applying for a Special Use Permit or completing a <br /> Planned Development is too large a burden to build or expand any single-family <br /> residential use. (Dan Eddleman) <br /> - Junkyards and other salvage uses should not be allowed in ED. (Joyce Scott) <br /> - Intensive developments such as petroleum storage facilities (or others that require <br /> a Special Use Permit) should require a public hearing so residents could comment <br /> on the uses proposed. <br /> Small scale residential development and subdivisions should be allowed in the ED <br /> zone; Orange County should allow minor subdivisions and create a special <br /> process and fees to work with the Special Use Permits for residences in the ED <br /> zone; this is especially important for "family land" where parents want to split off <br /> parcels of land or build other structures for their children or other relatives. (Ann <br /> Joyner) <br /> Would prefer zoning to allow only uses that provide services to the residents of <br /> the area. (Mark Botts) <br /> The intensity of the uses proposed for the ED zone are understandable for areas <br /> along the interstate highway system where the quality of life is "degraded" <br /> already, but NC 54 does not have the same "degraded" quality of life, so the <br /> level of intensity should be reduced. <br /> Uses should be more focused to serve the needs of the area's residents, not <br /> regional warehousing and manufacturing. (Joyce Scott) <br /> It may be difficult for residences in the ED zone to comply with the regulations <br /> of the ED zone. (Norman Hester) <br /> Limit permitted uses to NC-2 and LC-l. (Tom Whisnant) <br /> Prefer to see a separate zone created to account for the rural location of this area; <br /> did not feel that the same intensity of development should be allowed along I-85 <br /> and I-40 as allowed along rural NC 54 in Bingham Township.
