III. PUBLIC HEARINGS III.A Zoning Map Amendment (Rezoning) Application and Staff Report Thomas Mierisch with the Planning Department presented a rezoning request for a 1.92 acre vacant tract of land with frontage on Riddle Road, adjoining 141 Riddle Road to the east and opposite 272 and 332/340 Riddle Road, from Highway Commercial Conditional Use to Residential Agricultural. The property is identified as tax parcel 9651-21-2766-00 as depicted on Lee County tax map 9654.03. Planning staff have received a rezoning application from Mr. Ray Riddle to rezone his property back to Residential Agricultural (RA) to allow for the subject property to be used in a residential manner. Specifically, someone is interested in purchasing the property to develop with a single-family dwelling, which the current Highway Commercial-Condition use does not allow. The property was rezoned from RA to HC-CU in 1992 at the request of Mr. Riddle to allow the development of a welding shop. The project did not move forward and the tract of land remains vacant. Mr. Riddle no longer plans to pursue the development of a welding shop at this location; therefore, he has submitted a rezoning request asking that the land be rezoned back to RA to allow a residential use that would be in harmony with the surrounding zoning and land uses in the area. Chair Dalrymple opened the public hearing for comment. No one spoke in favor or against the proposed rezoning request. Chair Dalrymple closed the public hearing. ITEM-01-REZ@RIDDLE ROAD-BINDER-V2.pdf 111.6 Zoning Map Amendment (Rezoning) Application and Staff Report Thomas Mierisch presented a rezoning request from Ronnie Turner with Sandhills Partnership to rezone two adjoining tracts of land totaling approximately 4.86 acres developed with a house addressed as 6400 Old Jefferson Davis Highway and a mobile home park addressed as 15, 25, 35, 45, and 65 Azalea Lane, formerly known as the Wilbur Stephens Mobile Home Park, from Residential Agricultural to Azalea Lane Conditional Zoning District with the intent being to expand an existing mobile home park via a site plan specific conditional zoning district. The property is identified as tax parcel 9528-93-6769 -00 as depicted on Lee County tax maps 9538 and 9528. Mr. Turner would like to extend the existing gravel drive and add 6 mobile homes, while maintaining the existing landscape buffer of mature trees around the perimeter of the property. The rationale being that the continuation of the existing design would be in harmony with the existing mobile home park community and the area and is more reasonable than requiring the existing mobile home park to come up to the current UDO design standards. The subject property is comprised of two tracts of land totaling 4.85 acres. Tract one is developed with a house addressed at 6400 Old Jefferson Davis Highway and five mobile homes addressed as 15, 25, 35, 45, and 65 Azalea Lane, compromising one mobile home park. The existing mobile home park is grandfathered in to allow a mobile home park without an overlay district.
