10. 5.20.4 I personally believe that Sexually-Oriented Businesses have no place in our County and if <br /> there has to be a zoning district for them then it certainly should not be steered by the zoning ordinance <br /> into the most general commercial zoning district. <br /> <br />The section he refers to prescribes the separation requirements for Sexually Oriented <br />Businesses. It requires these uses to be separated by 2,000 feet from other Sexually Oriented <br />Businesses, churches, schools, residential zoning districts, parks, recreation uses, day cares, <br />and adult day cares. C-2 is the most intense commercial zone and has requirements for <br />separation from residential districts (which Jerry felt was not an appropriate standard for <br />this distric0. The 1~ amendment and subsequent Supreme Court decisions requires that the <br />County permit Sexually Oriented Businesses somewhere in its jurisdiction. In addition, the <br />regulations that are set must make it possible for this type of establishment to actually locate <br />in the jurisdiction. In other words, a small percentage of the County's land area must be <br />eligible to have a Sexually Oriented Business on it (i.e. be zoned appropriately and meet all <br />the other requirements in the ordinance). Just because it is eligible land, doesn't mean it <br />has to be vacant and available for rent or for sale. It means that if it were available it could <br />be used for this type of establishment. As a percentage of total land, C-2 comprises the <br />lowest percentage within the unincorporated areas of Cabarrus County. Of the areas <br />proposed for C-2 zoning most is already developed. Of the only other suitable districts, I-1 <br />and I-2, there is far more land proposed for these districts and in these districts there is far <br />more land that is vacant and available. _ <br /> <br />11. 5.22.2.5 It is not uncommon in downtowns to have sidewalk sales. Does this section prevent that <br /> from occurring? <br /> <br />· This is a Municipal issue. County staff will raise this question at our next staff technical <br /> meeting. <br /> <br />12. 5.23.2.4 Why does the area under a displayed manufactured/modular home have to be paved? <br /> <br />· This item will be discussed at our next staff technical meeting. <br /> <br />13. 5.23.2.6 Is it really necessary to require a four-foot sidewalk if the area where the displays are <br /> located is already paved? <br /> <br />· This item will be discussed at our next staff technical meeting. <br /> <br />14. 5.23.3.4 Identifying all trees with greater thun 12 inch DBH within property becoming a nu'al <br /> subdivision seems excessive. <br /> <br />· This carries forward the.policy already adopted within the Rimer Community Overlay <br /> District. <br /> <br />ARTICLE 6 <br /> <br />6.3.7.2 Building permits and zoning clearance permits should not be held for two weeks a~er a <br />fmai plat is approved. <br /> <br />This policy is proposed for several reasons. First, it permits sufficient amount of time <br />digitize a recorded plat. Second, by allowing digitization to take place our computerized <br />addressing system can be used making the addressing process more efficient. Third, by <br />allowing the first two items to occur each building permit will be fled to the actual parcel ID <br />number instead of the subdivision's parent PIN number making it easier to track the <br />location of each permit and for more logical record keeping between several County <br />departments. <br /> <br />13 <br /> <br /> <br />
