6. Items for decision – regular agenda
A. Annexation and General Use Rezoning: 220 and 300 U.S, 70 E. (PINS 987500537 & 9875104533); Entryway
Special Use to General Commercial
Two community members with property neighboring the site spoke against the annexation and rezoning. It
was noted that the public hearing occurred April 20, and the Planning Board recommended approval at its
May 18 meeting. It was clarified that approval of the request does not guarantee water and sewer service
would be granted, the property has utility service but the service doesn’t guarantee granting of water and
sewer capacity, and the new zoning would require higher capacity, likely meaning larger pipes than what is at
the property. There was discussion about traffic on U.S. 70 at the property’s entrance. It was noted that any
future traffic analysis would depend on the commercial use of the property and that the area already had
been identified for redevelopment, with the general-use rezoning consistent with the town’s future land use
plan.
Hughes joined the meeting at 7:30 p.m.
Motion: Commissioner Robb English moved to approve annexation. Ferguson seconded.
Vote: 5-0.
Motion: Ferguson moved to approve rezoning to general commercial. Bell seconded.
Vote: 4-1. Nay: Lloyd
Motion: Ferguson moved to approve the rezoning consistency statement to general commercial.
Hughes seconded.
Vote: 5-0.
B. Collins Ridge Master Plan Amendments – 2023
The developers requested several changes to the master plan due to changes in the developer, site and
development conditions since the original approval in 2017. Staff also requested modifications. There was
discussion about a developer-requested change that would allow a payment in lieu of bringing one roadway
to the property line because of topography challenges. Town Attorney Bob Hornik said the proposed amount
— 150% of the appraised value of the easement — is more than the town usually asks for. A representative
for the developers noted the easement will have been graded already when the road is completed later for
the adjacent Boone Square property, making the work cost less at that time.
Motion: Bell moved to approve the resolution amending the Collins Ridge Master Plan. Hughes
seconded.
Vote: 5-0.
