Conner Trucking History of Zoning Enforcement On May 9, 1994 our office received a complaint concenfing a possible zoning violation at 13041 Cabarrus Station Road in Midland. The complaint was as follows: "Tractor trailers, dump trucks - Trucking company opened and operating in the neighborhood - Trucks coming mid going at all hours of fl~e day. m~d night. They leave their refrigeration units rmming all night." On May 19, 1994 Mr. Jay Lowe, Zoning Teclmicim~, performed m~ onsite inspection and fonnd that there was a trucking company operating at this address. Mr. Lowe talked with Mr. Colmer m~d others workh~g at this location. They stated that a business has been operating here for approximately 15 years. Having no evidence to the contrary, oar office did not see a need for any fi~rther actions. On June 16, 1994, Mrs. Bohmmon who lives across Cabarms Station Road from this operation and Mrs. Morrison who lives on Sam Black Road, came by my office to discuss the trucking company presently operating on Mr. Comber's property. I told them what Mr. Lowe had found and that our office was satisfied that this was not a violation. Both ladies disagreed with the information we had received. They stated the trucking compm~y had not been there more than two years. They did agree that Mr. Colmer ran a grocery store in the building which is now occupied by RPM Industries. At that time Mr. Comber had a delivery truck and a dninp truck. That's all. With this new information in ~nind I tried for three days to get in touch with Mr. Cromer. On June 21, i 994 I talked with Mr. Colmer and told him the reformation I had received. I then asked him to provide me with some evidence which would prove that his trucking company has been in continttous operation for the last 15 years. Mr. Comber stated that it would take some time to gather such infonnation. Approxi~nately tlu'ee weeks later, Mr. Conner brought me a couple of ledger sheets from January and February of 1983 showing some activity of a dump truck lie owned at that time. Mr. Comber also gave me a copy of a receipt for service work performed in 1981 on a diesel truck.
