Approved 9.7.22 <br /> 392 Perdita Holtz: I don't know Tony,full disclosure to everybody, I live within the 1,000 foot notification boundary and I don't <br /> 393 remember this parcel ever being up for rezoning. <br /> 394 <br /> 395 Delores Bailey: What would keep Bravos from being able to expand? <br /> 396 <br /> 397 Pat Mallett: Septic <br /> 398 <br /> 399 Delores Bailey: Would that not be the same problem for whatever structure they decide to put here? <br /> 400 <br /> 401 Cy Stober: They would size the septic for the structure at that time. As part of the new structure the septic tank would be <br /> 402 placed in the ground at the same time the foundation is being laid.Any expansion of Bravos or Fiesta Grill would require <br /> 403 replacing the existing septic tank with a larger one. <br /> 404 <br /> 405 Beth Bronson: Based on the details of the rezoning requests, it would seem that construction wants to go for the whole <br /> 406 parcel, right? Not piecemeal from what is zoned for LC-1 and NC-2? The intention is to develop the entire 4.8 acres? <br /> 407 <br /> 408 Ross Godwin: That is correct, obviously we would be abiding by the County UDO. <br /> 409 <br /> 410 David Blankfard: If we approve this zoning change,that takes away the ability to further develop the rest of the intersection, is <br /> 411 that correct. <br /> 412 <br /> 413 Adam Beeman: There would be 1.3 acres left for someone. <br /> 414 <br /> 415 David Blankfard: So if we do not approve it the community could have 4 parcels that could be built instead of just 1, <br /> 416 hypothetically? <br /> 417 <br /> 418 Adam Beeman: It's been available for a long time,that node has been there for a while. <br /> 419 <br /> 420 David Blankfard: I'm saying you could have 1 now or 4 in the future. <br /> 421 <br /> 422 Statler Gilfillen: I am hearing a number of things, I'd like to compliment the number of people that have shown up and spoken <br /> 423 and the politeness. What this Board will do we'll vote on something that will affect their personal lives. I will assume that any <br /> 424 final approval we give, if we are pro, has to be based on the ability of the owner to do a worst case scenario,the maximum. <br /> 425 That is a potential. We approve it and they could tell us they are going to put a 3,000 sq.ft. building plus parking but once the <br /> 426 approval is in they can do what they want under the law. I have not heard from the people asking for the rezoning, any <br /> 427 justification supporting a specific local need of a corporate store versus all the small local businesses that are going in. It <br /> 428 raises the question that if this a potential or corporate store,what will be developed could be out of context and out of scale to <br /> 429 what is there and seems to be servicing the local community. <br /> 430 <br /> 431 Charity Kirk: On a similar vein, I also feel that the potential size is out of character in the neighborhood both away from Hwy <br /> 432 54 and just the large parcel compared to the other parcels so I want that to be taken into consideration whether it's a dollar <br /> 433 store or something else. The potential for being out of character with the neighbor needs. <br /> 434 <br /> 435 David Blankfard: I don't think we know what the setbacks are, I think the square footage that we have right now is based on <br /> 436 zero setbacks and zero buffers. <br /> 437 <br /> 438 Charity Kirk: Even a 10,000 sq.ft. building is a bit out of character for this area and what would be allowed considering how <br /> 439 deep that parcel is—just my comment. <br /> 440 <br /> 441 David Blankfard: Setbacks,sewer system,well, buffers and all of that,there is a reason why most of the properties out there <br /> 442 are 2,000 sq.ft. again this is probably going to be around 2,000 sq.ft. once the civil people get in there and figure it out. <br /> 443 <br /> 444 Statler Gilfillen: If we were to approve this what is the maximum that could go in, I've not heard that information so it leaves <br /> 445 me questioning will this or will this not be under the context of the community. Could we be doing harm to the community. <br /> 446 <br /> 447 David Blankfard: That is something that the applicant should present at the County Commissioner's meeting. <br />
