OWNER/APPLICANT

OWNER/APPLICANT: James Miller, KAMCO, Inc.

PROPERTY INFORMATION

LOCATION:

919 Brawley School Road; more specifically PINs 4636783965.000.

DIRECTIONS: West on Brawley School Rd from I-77; Property is on the left just before

The properties to the south and east are residential in nature.

SIZE: The acreage to be rezoned is approximately 1.032 acres.

EXISTING LAND USE: The parcel is

ZONING HISTORY: The property

was rezoned to RO in 2007.

OTHER JURISDICTIONAL

INFORMATION: This property is

located in Mooresville’s Urban

Service Area. The town expressed

no concerns about the rezoning

seeing that it matched the land

use plan.

OTHER SITE CHARACTERISTICS: The property is located in the WS-IV Critical Area of the

Catawba/Lake Norman Watershed and may have limited built-upon area for new

development. The property is not located in a flood zone.

IMPACTS ON LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE AND/OR FACILITES

TRAFFIC: The closest traffic count was on Brawley School Road near the intersection of

also be reviewed for compliance.

STATE: Other than building code, there should be no formal state agency review at this

time.

FEDERAL: None at this time.

STAFF AND BOARD COMMENTS

STAFF COMMENTS: The 2030 Horizon Plan calls for this area to be Corridor

Commercial, which includes existing commercial, office, and/or retail uses that exist

along major thoroughfares and highways or areas that will include commercial

development in the future. These areas are both within and outside the Iredell County

Urban Service Areas. According to the plan, uses within this area generally should

include retail, restaurants, entertainment centers, automobile services, personal

services, other commercial uses, and office developments.

The Planning staff can support the proposed rezoning request based on the following:

The 2030 Horizon Plan calls for this area to be Corridor Commercial, which allows for

neighborhood scale business uses. The current zoning allows for commercial

development and the rezoning would create zoning consistency with adjacent

properties fronting Brawley School Rd. There is an existing business adjacent to the site

and the site is near past approved Neighborhood Business districts. Traffic impacts

should not exceed road capacity.

SITE REVIEW COMMITTEE: Jerry Santoni visited the site with staff on February 16, 2018.

ACTION NEEDED:

TO APPROVE: Motion to recommend in favor of the zoning map amendment and

to make a finding that the approval is consistent with the adopted

2030 Horizon Plan and that said approval is reasonable and in the

public interest and furthers the goals of the 2030 Horizon Plan

because it is contained within a commercial corridor, it is adjacent

to commercially zoned property, and traffic impacts should not

exceed road capacity.

TO DENY: Motion to recommend denial of the zoning map amendment and

to make a finding that though the denial is inconsistent with the

adopted 2030 Horizon Plan, said denial is reasonable and in the


because….
