Approved 7.10.24 a comprehensive land use plan that was to span and to provide guidance to not only planning boards, but to 761 legislative commissions to make sure decisions. Is that correct? 762 763 Tom Altieri: Certainly within the State of North Carolina, yes. 764 765 Beth Bronson: Okay. 766 767 Lamar Proctor: Any other questions of staff before we move to the applicant presentation? 768 769 Charity Kirk: When talking about the MPD-CD or CD whatever you want, it states in the unified 770 development ordinance that it shall be limited to a transition land use categories. What are transition land use 771 categories? 772 773 Tom Altieri: It's a broad category distinguished from rural land use categories based on the availability of 774 public utilities primarily water and sewer utilities, so transition from rural to urban with those utilities. 775 776 Charity Kirk: So agricultural residential is not a transitional land use category. 777 778 Tom Altieri: Correct. All of the transition and that's a broad land use classification of transition, all of those 779 classifications are adjacent, near our municipalities so none out in the rural areas. These are areas that by and large 780 are served by private wells and septic tanks and that's the distinction there between the rural land use classifications 781 and the transition classifications. 782 783 Charity Kirk: So if we like this project we need to turn it into this rural activity node, we can't leave the 784 activity node the way it is. 785 786 Tom Altieri: Mr. Stober had mentioned that the pleasure of the planning board recommendation and the 787 Board of County Commissioners, per state statutes, they do have the ability to approve a rezoning request that is 788 inconsistent with the plan and therefore the plan shall be amended. 789 790 Charity Kirk: That would mean agricultural residential then would be allowed to have conditional zoning 791 districts applied to it. It would be a permanent mark in the comprehensive plan or something else. 792 793 Cy Stober: So that requires a UDO text amendment and the applicant has proposed a text amendment so 794 there's two amendments, one is for the family care facility, the other is to that exact language that you're referring to 795 for the transition area and the rural community activity node which is footnote No. 1 under the MPD-CD standards, 796 and to include rural neighborhood activity node as one of the other allowable future land use classifications. 797 798 Charity Kirk: But if we don't want to touch the rural activity node, then we would have to touch agricultural 799 residential. 800 801 Cy Stober: Or propose a different type of node to be placed there. 802 803 Charity Kirk: Okay, thank you. 804 805 Lamar Proctor: Okay, any other questions of staff? All right, I think we're ready for the applicant presentation. 806 Thank you very much. 807 808 Marilyn Carter: Is there a limit on the applicant's time? 809 810 Lamar Proctor: 30 minutes. 811
