Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
2. Petitions and Amendments -
Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
[Board members, staff, or persons attending the meeting may submit or present written or oral requests unrelated to items on the agenda, including requests to amend the agenda to add or re-order items. A new item involving substantive matters of potential public interest may be added to the agenda only for the purposes of referring it to the staff or a committee or scheduling it for consideration at a later meeting.]
3. Consent Agenda -
Mr. Terry Yeargan, Chair
[These are items proposed to be approved by unanimous consent - without discussion, and in accord with a submitted recommendation. The are limited to preliminary subdivision plans recommended for approval by the Subdivision Administrator and not involving a variance, and items where a Planning Board committee unanimously recommends approval and concurs with the staff recommendation. If any Board member objects to unanimous consent approval of any item below (whether because of disagreement with the recommendation or a wish to discuss the matter further), the Chair will declare the item removed to an appropriate place on the agenda for separate discussion.]
a. [S-23-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Ogburn Farms (Cluster):
Proposal to subdivide a 56.70 acre parcel, zoned R-30, situated on the south side of Highway 42, east of Mount Pleasant Road, in the southern part of the County into 40 lots and open space.
b. [S-24-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Starling Tract:
Proposal to subdivide a 13.49 acre parcel, zoned R-40W, situated on the east side of Yates Mill Pond Road, between Tryon Road and Theys Road, south of Raleigh into 10 lots.
c. [S-25-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Eagle Mountain:
Proposal to subdivide a 35.53 acre parcel, zoned R-40W, situated on the north side of Ten Ten Road, between Old Stage Road and Highway 401, south of Garner into 27 lots as a cluster subdivision. This is located north of the existing South Mountain Subdivision and west of the Town of Garner's incomplete Eagle Ridge Subdivision.
4. Rezonings -
[These are petitions to amend the County's Zoning Map to reclassify land from one zoning district to another, thus subjecting the site to a different set of zoning regulations. The Planning Board reviews these petitions in an advisory capacity, recommending that the Board of Commissioners either approve or deny the petition. The Board must base its recommendation on whether or not the proposed rezoning is consistent with the County's Land Use Plan and otherwise advances the public health, safety, and general welfare.]
a. [ZP-801-01] South side of Poole Road:
Request to rezone 12.5 acres from R-30 to CU-I-2, located on the southwest side of the intersection of Poole Road and Hodge Road. At its May 16, 2001 meeting, by a vote of 10-0, the Planning Board, at the request of the applicant, delayed action to allow the applicant to make revisions.
i. Staff Report and Recommendation - Mr. Larry Morgan, Planner
ii. Presentation or Comments from Applicant
iii. Comments from Other Interested Parties
iv. Board Discussion
v. Board Conclusion and Recommendation to Board of Commissioners
5. Preliminary Subdivision Plans (including associated variances) -
[These are applications for approval of preliminary plans for the division of land into lots, which are reviewed for compliance with standards set forth in the County's Subdivision Ordinance. If the plan complies with all applicable standards, the Board must approve it; if not, the Board must either deny it or approve it with conditions specifying actions that will ensure such compliance. These applications may be accompanied by applications for hardship variances from the Subdivision Ordinance's standards, which must be decided before review of the preliminary subdivision plan. The Planning Board may grant a variance only after it hears evidence as to hardships due to the land or parcel, makes findings of fact supported by the presented evidence, and, based on those findings of fact, concludes that: (a) strict application of the relevant standard would prohibit subdivision of the parcel in accord with the spirit and intent of the Subdivision Ordinance because of extraordinary circumstances peculiar to the parcel; (b) the variance is necessary to avoid extraordinary and unnecessary hardship; and (c) the variance will not result in detriment to the public interest or violate the intent and purpose of the Subdivision Ordinance. The applicant bears the burden of presenting sufficient evidence to allow the Board to make findings of fact and reach the required conclusions.]
a. [S-22-01] Preliminary Subdivision Plan titled Kanata:
(Only if Subdivision Committee completes its review.) Proposal to subdivide a 48.62 acre parcel, zoned R-40W, situated on the east side of Camp Kanata Road, south of Purnell road, in the northern part of the County into 28 lots and additional open space. (This is not being proposed as a cluster subdivision.)
