APPROVED 9/4/19 through the packet. This is a general use rezoning request. It has a same format as most cases you see in terms of 56 the abstract with a series of attachments. We have the abstract which starts on page 7 of your packet and ends on 57 page 24 of your packet. It has attachments including the application starting on page 11. Maps of the parcel can be 58 found on page 20, a site assessment on page 21, a statement of consistency which is attachment 4 on page 22, and 59 then the ordinance amending the atlas on page 24. If you have any questions, I can answer them after the 60 presentation. I would also like to note that I sent out an email yesterday regarding the property having a major 61 transportation quarter overlay district in addition to the zoning. They are not proposing to change it or recommended 62 to change it. The subject property is a little over 16 acres with two pieces of frontage. There is a landscaping 63 contracting business on one side, with farm fields and a pond. There are several residential properties along the 64 frontage of West Ten. The existing zoning areas in yellow are residential. The areas to the north of this property is 65 zoned (ORM) Office and Researching Manufacturing. There is agricultural and residential zoning on the south side 66 of West Ten and a neighborhood commercial area on this portion of the property. As you saw in the packet, this 67 case is a split zoning case. The direction from the commissioners is to clean up the split zone pieces of property. 68 This neighborhood commercial portion has a contracting and landscaping business on a portion of the property. The 69 applicant, Mr. Doby, lives in this residence here. The site summary is that it is within the Cheeks Township with a pin 70 number and owner, Wayne Doby. The existing zoning is neighborhood commercial and is approximately 1.71 acres. 71 The rural residential on one side is 14.54 acres in the watershed and it would be MTC. The request is to consolidate 72 these two zoning categories into 16.45 acres of General Commercial (GC-4). This is the land-use element of the 73 comprehensive plan. The plan calls and designates this property as a commercial industrial transition activity node. 74 The growth management system of the property is zoned as urban designated. In summary, this property like the 75 other one that you heard in May was part of the batch in 2016 that was split zoned. Mr. Doby like Mr. Lawton, which 76 you heard back in May, has asked to be taken off this list and had to ask to reinitiate his zoning in order to resolve it. 77 Staff recommended rezoning this split zoning portion of the property to (GC-4) that is most consistent with the 78 comprehensive plan and the land-use plan designation. Cheeks Township was originally zoned in 1984 and the non-79 residential portion of this property was established at least a year prior to that zoning. The zoning at that time did not 80 capture all of their non-residential use. The planning director recommends that the Planning Board review the 81 proposed zoning atlas amendment, to deliberate on the petition, to consider the director’s recommendation, and then 82 to make a recommendation to the board of commissioners on the statement of consistency and for a proposed 83 ordinance for the atlas amendment in time for the September 3rd BOCC meeting. I will answer any questions you 84 have about the presentation or the packet and then turn it over to the applicants. 85 86 David Blankfard: I think we're good. 87 88 Chad Huffine: Good evening; my name is Chad and I am a civil engineer with the project, with 505 E. Davis St. in 89 Burlington. We were contacted by Mr. Doby to look at the potential uses for his property and immediately noticed the 90 split zoning on his property. After several conversations with staff, and taking recommendations, we submitted a 91 rezoning application for the (GC-4), which is consistent with the land-use plan you have currently. I do want to 92 reiterate one thing that Pat said, we do not propose any changes to the transportation overlay. We do not have any 93 conditions associated with this rezoning request and we would appreciate your favorable consideration. If you have 94 any questions please feel free to contact me. 95 96 Hunter Spitzer: What is it that Mr. Doby wants to do with the property? 97 98 Chad Huffine: He’s currently proposing the multiuse of landscaping and mini-storage use, but that is not what you're 99 considering tonight. What you are considering tonight is a rezoning without conditions. 100 101 Patrick Mallett: I'll add on to that briefly. This case is a general use case. In some jurisdictions they may have 102 conditional zoning category that could be applied, and you can restrict and eliminate some of the uses. This is a 103 general-use case. They can indicate what they intend on doing, but you have to consider all of the permitted uses 104 that are allowed in the (GC-4) district. 105 106 David Blankfard: Do we have any comments from the citizens? 107 108 Crystal Gvaldoni: My name is Crystal. I live at 6405 West Ten Rd., which is directly impacted by this change. I built 109 my home in 2010 from the ground up, and I know Mr. Doby personally. I am against what he's planning on doing to 110
