Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes June 15, 1995 Page 4 the affect on the neighborhood. He said what they would like to propose specifically is the area to the west of the Westside Bypass which is Mr. Barbee's property where his house sits, they would like for that to be zoned either LDR or MDR. The property on the east side of the proposed Westside Bypass and north of Highway 73 which is about 65 acres, is what they would like to see zoned MDR to accommodate Mr. Barbee's wishes, the wishes of his daughter and the wishes of many of the neighbors. Mr. Sharp asked the board to listen this property owner and consider what else is out there beyond the industrial use. Mr. Sharp said what they are proposing to do is change the zoning line on the west side of the creek to the 100 year flood line instead of the property line. That in effect should not have much effect on Dogwood and their back side use of their property. Mr. Scott Connell, Kannapolis Economic Development, addressed the Board stating that this area is in an area that has been annexed by the City of Kannapolis with a delayed action until 1999. Fie said they would like to be able to protect that area for two things. One to be able to continue to utilize the properties in that area for similarly uses as it is today, and two for future economic development. He said they are in favor of rezoning the properties to the west side of the Westside Bypass to residential, the properties from where the Westside Bypass going east to the interstate, are already business related. Fie said from that standpoint, they would like to keep this consistent from one highway boundary, to another. The Chair said the parcel to the west of the proposed bypass to her seems logical to rezone that to residential since everything on that side of the proposed bypass is residential. The Chair said Mr. Austin agreed to the rezoning of his property. Mr. Moose asked if this area is turned into Light Industrial, they cannot build certain things onto their residence. Mr. Moose said he believes that the board said that they could.
