NEW BUSINESS Appeal of Subdivision Rec~uest C02-01(E) Mount 0live Estates and Consideration of Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance Donation Ms. Kelly Sif ford, Senior Planner, presented Petition C02-01 (S), preliminary plat approval for the Mount Olive Estates Subdivision located in Township 7 on Mount Olive Road. The developers (Edward L. Duke and Bryant L. Parnell, Jr.) plan to develop 14 lots on approximately 20.88 acres. The Planning and Zoning Board voted 8-3 in favor of approving the subdivision on its technical merits, but voted 4-3 to deny the subdivision based on its Adequate Public Facilities Ordinance (APFO) inadequacies. As indicated by correspondence dated January 18, 2002, from Sam King, Jr., PE/PLS of King Engineering of Concord, Inc., the developers are appealing the Planning and Zoning Board's denial of the preliminary plat and are pledging $7,000.00 (14 lots ® $500.00) to advance adequacy of public schools in the area affected by the proposed dave 1 opment. Commissioner Fennel 'questioned the size and value of homes to be built in the. subdivi s ion. Ms. sifford ate=ed she did not have that information, but advised that the homes would be "stick-built" homes by Duke Builders. Also, she confirmed that the developers would use well and septic facilities in the subdivision. Commissioner Privette questioned the location of the proposed subdivision, its school district and the status of school enrollment in that district. Ms. Sifford advised that the property is located in the Mt. Pleasant School District and that there are a few seats available in that district. However, she explained the total capacity for the entire system is used in considering APFO issues as school lines are adjusted after development occurs in different areas of the county. According to Ms. Sifford, there are over 7,000 lots approved in Cabarrus County that could be built on tomorrow. However, she indicated that some of these lots (rezonings) have been approved for a number of years.
