The tracts are • located north to northeast of Colon Road, east of Deep River Road, south of Zion Church Road, west of US Highway 1 and east of US Highway 1. Combined, the tracts have over 2,400 feet of road frontage on Colon Road. The subject tracts include three single-family homes and out buildings located at 4416, 4564 and 4616 Colon Road. The remainder of the subject tracts is vacant. At present, the tracts appears to be wooded to lightly wooded with several farm fields. A 100' power line easement to Progress Energy runs through the northern portion of the tracts. Existing Zoning and Land Uses The subject tracts are surrounded by Residential Agricultural (RA) zoned properties. Opposite the subject tracts and south of Colon Road is 69± acres of undeveloped land zoned for commercial uses. Land uses in the area are residential and agricultural uses consisting of low-density single family dwellings, farmland, and woodlands The majority of residential homes are located east of Deep River Road and south of Zion Church Road. Staff Analysis The applicants have assembled their properties for the purpose of a future development. The applicants are requesting to rezone 431.124-acres to Light Industrial (1.I) and 60.359-acres to General Commercial (C-2). This will perm t a variety of light industrial uses and commercial uses on the subject lands. The existing residential homes on the site will become legal non-conforming. The existing land use pattern in the vicinity of the subject property is mostly residential. Future land uses in this area will consist of commercial and industrial uses due to the expansion of the Lee County Industrial Park north to Colon Road A driveway entrance onto Colon Road has already been installed in anticipation of the expansion. The entrance is through a vacant 64.5-acre tract that was zoned Highway Commercial in November 2001. The • existing land use pattern is expected to change as development occurs within the expansion area of the Industrial Park and on other non-residential zoned properties.
