Approved 6.5.24 <br /> 301 <br /> 302 Anthony Cecil: The reason we're trying to get the whole property rezoned to the commercial is to bring us <br /> 303 along to what we actually do. That whole property was a school building. Personally, I don't think any other <br /> 304 school building around here is zoned residential. I don't know why this one was, but we're just trying to get our <br /> 305 property for the use that we have, bring it in line with what we're doing. That little piece of property right there,we <br /> 306 do use a little piece of it. Most of it is woods. But we use a little area for parking and stuff like that. We have <br /> 307 allowed when they was doing road work, they come and park their trucks there, they turn around. The people <br /> 308 that were putting all the fiber in, they've been parking down for over a year, which they just left, but I think are <br /> 309 coming back. So, we're just trying to bring everything into — <br /> 310 <br /> 311 Beth Bronson: So, you have been renting it out as a storage area for supplies? <br /> 312 <br /> 313 Anthony Cecil: We haven't been charging them folks— <br /> 314 <br /> 315 Beth Bronson: But again, if it was General Commercial, you could. <br /> 316 <br /> 317 Anthony Cecil: Yes. That's not our intent. <br /> 318 <br /> 319 Beth Bronson: No, absolutely. And it makes complete sense that you would want to bring into alignment. <br /> 320 Well, it seems like R1, because when the business itself was there, there was not a zoning, and so when there <br /> 321 was a zoning applied, it all just kind of gets labeled, and then as people make changes, they have to kind of go <br /> 322 through the process of making the changes. So, here we are. So, thank you very much, and I appreciate that. <br /> 323 <br /> 324 Chris Johnston: Whenever we do these Conventional District Rezonings, I always try to look at what's in the <br /> 325 new zone that wouldn't fit in for the neighborhood, because when we do these Conventional District Rezonings, <br /> 326 there are certain things that become permittable by right and so, Ms. Carter actually already asked my question <br /> 327 about did it make more sense for it to be NC2. I've just been reading over the standards for LC1, NC2, and EC5, <br /> 328 and I guess there's no real way around it because you guys already do more than 100. We've been out to the <br /> 329 Rodeo a couple of times now, and it's been great so, I have no further questions. <br /> 330 <br /> 331 Charity Kirk: Just sort of touching on that same topic, General Commercial, one of the things listed was <br /> 332 water and sewer mains exist at the site or to be made available or the lot size for individual uses are appropriate <br /> 333 to the method of water supply and sewage disposal. What is the current water supply and sewage disposal, and <br /> 334 are there any issues with that? <br /> 335 <br /> 336 Anthony Cecil: No, we have city water and city sewer on that property. <br /> 337 <br /> 338 Charity Kirk: All right, thank you. <br /> 339 <br /> 340 Cy Stober: To clarify, it's Orange-Alamance water and City of Mebane sewer. <br /> 341 <br /> 342 Charity Kirk: I wasn't sure where. I knew there was talk of water and sewer at some point. <br /> 343 <br /> 344 Cy Stober: It's serviced with utilities. One's a non-profit and one's public. <br /> 345 <br /> 346 Charity Kirk: Okay, thank you. <br /> 347 <br /> 348 Lamar Proctor: This is kind of maybe a joint question for staff as well as the applicant. If it's rezoned then <br /> 349 that zoning runs with the property to whoever buys it, right?So, our question is whether, regardless of the owner <br />
