To make the Zoning Atlas consistent with the Comprehensive Plan, the Rural Residential areas must be rezoned to Residential -1. Most of the property proposed for rezoning is located on the south side of NC Highway 54 near the white Cross Rural Community Activity Node. A smaller portion is located on the north side of Dairyland Road (SR 1177) west of Dodsons Crossroads (sR 1102). The current zoning is Agricultural Residential. ResidEn- tial-1 zoning is recommended to provide the consis- tency referenced above. If approved, the rezoning from AR to R -1 would make very little difference with regard to land use /devel- opment. The minimum lot width required is 150 feet in AR and 130 feet in R -1. Uses permitted in AR which are not permitted in R -1 are as follows: Commercial Feeder Operation Greenhouse (with on- premise sales) Cemetery (requires a Class B SUP in R -1) Nonprofit Educational Cooperative (Class A SUP)
