The salvage yards and landfill areas are located on five different <br />areas on the property. <br /> <br />The landfill operation appears to encroach on to the adjacent property to the east (7141 Flowes Store <br />Road which is approximately 30 acres), also owned by Mr. and Mrs. McGraw. According, to the tax <br />records, the McGraws acquired this parcel in 2021. <br /> <br />Based on GIS aerial imagery (See GIS Aerial Images) and Pictometry (See Pictometry Imagery Historical <br />and February 2021), the landfill and salvage yard areas have been gradually increasing in size since <br />2010. <br /> <br />p The most recent site visit identified a new section of the property being cleared that is adjacent <br />to existing landfill and dumping area. <br />The GIS and Pictometry images also show that the salvage yard and the landfill extend into the <br />regulated Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA). <br /> <br />The salvaged vehicles on the property are located anywhere from approximately 85 feet to 394 feet <br />from the edge of the Rocky River. <br /> <br />The uses on the site are classified as a salvage yard and a landfill. <br /> <br />p Chapter 2 defines a salvage yard as an establishment operated for the purpose of storing, <br />dismantling, salvaging, recycling, buying, or selling scrap or used materials such as paper, <br />metals, rubber, rags, glass, construction materials, wrecked, used, or dismantled products <br />and articles, such as machinery, vehicles, appliances, manufactured homes, recreational <br />vehicles, and the like. Also known as a Junk Yard. <br /> <br />p Chapter 2 defines a landfill, sanitary as any disposal facility or part of a disposal facility <br />where waste is placed in or on land, whether publicly or privately owned, and holding a <br />permit from the State of North Carolina <br /> <br /> <br />
