Planning Board Minutes June 20, 1990 Page 7 Hearing no objectives, Chairman Randall then MOTIONED to amend the River/ Stream Overlay Zone (RSOZ) under 4A, replace the period after biologist with "and in coordination with the Cabarrus County Soil & Water Conservation District," seconded by Mr. Hurlocker. The vote was unanimous. Mr. Hurlocker asked if an applicant comes in from a road construction project, how will this be processed. Mr. Byrd stated that it would have to go through other federal agencies. In response to several general questions, Mr. Newton's~ated this proposal would be very nice to have universally adopted by all jurisdictions in the County. It is a worthy thing to have done. In those cases where there is a public improvement or one of the permitted activities listed in 4B, that is when the replacement program gets involved. Mr. Newton stated that permits would be issued at the County level through the Planning & Zoning Department. Being satisfied with all answers given and there being no further comments, Chairman Randall MOTIONED to approve Petition 90-06(t) River/Stream Overlay Zone (RSOZ) text amendment, seconded by Mr. Nichols. The vote was unanimous. Chairman Randall introduced the sixth item on the Agenda, Small Area Planning Study: ._ Mr. Downs, Zoning Administrator, stated he wanted to give the Board an update on the Cold Springs/Highway 73 small area plan. He stated a meeting was held on June 7th with approximately 40 people attending. Mr. Downs stated that in many ways it was a split decision as to how the area should develop. Some residents want the area to remain the same while the others want zone changes to have area change. Mr. Suther stated he attended the meeting, and many ofthe residents would like the area to just remain as it is now. Mr. Newton stated the community is not quite functioning as a community, they are net. thinking collectively. He stated it was very difficult to get them to realize that changes are happening to their community and they can help direct the changes. The residents did not grasp onto the idea that the Staff was there asking for their opinion versus the department saying this is the way it is going to be. Mr. Downs stated there will be another meeting on the 2Bth of June and the Staff will come up with a Staff Report for the Board at the next meeting. Mr. Marshall gave the Board an update on the Northwestern Cabarrus small area plan meeting. Mr. Marshall stated the northwestern section is a much larger area than the Cold Springs/Highway 73 section. This area is considered a pilot for the small area plan as we would like to do it throughout'-th~'Cou~ty. This is a way of reviewing the zoning in the County to avoid some of the rezonings. A meeting was held on June 13th at Northwest Cabarrus High School.
