Zoning HistorX:
On September 29, 1994 the Board of Supervisors, upon a favorable recommendation
from the Planning Commission, approved General Industrial (I-2) zoning on the subject
property and on adjacent properties (Case 94SN0197). Case 94SN0197 permits I-2 uses
on the property but does not allow for sale of motor vehicles.
Development Standards:
The request property is located within an Emerging Growth Area. Redevelopment of the site
or new construction must conform to the development standards of the Zoning Ordinance
which address access, parking landscaping architectural treatment, setbacks, signs, buffers,
utilities and screening of dumpsters and loading areas.
CONCLUSION
While the proposed use does not conform to The Comprehensive Plan, which designates the
property as industrial, the vehicles intended to be sold from this location are so specialized that
the use will not have the same effect as a typical motor vehicle sales facility. In addition, the
proposed uses, as conditioned, are representative of and compatible with existing and anticipated
area development.
Given these considerations, approval of this request is recommended.
CASE HISTORY
Planning Commission Meeting (10/16/12):
The applicant accepted the recommendation. There was no opposition present.
On motion of Mr. Patton, seconded by Dr. Wallin, the Commission recommended
approval subject to the condition and acceptance of the proffered conditions on page 2.
AYES: Messrs. Gulley, Waller, Brown, Patton and Wallin.
The Board of Supervisors on Wednesday, November 28, 2012 beginning at 6:30 p.m., will take
under consideration this request.
