Continuation of
The properties proposed for zoning were recently annexed. The
Planning Board members felt the areas in the Country Club Estates should be
zoned Residential 1. All of the
surrounding areas are zoned Residential 2.
This would create an
Mr. Brede opposed the R1 zoning because there is sewer in the area and the larger lots will be platted into smaller lots.
Chairman Tilley agreed stating that another concern is the amount of traffic the roads can sustain.
Mr. Tooey agreed that zoning the adjacent area R1 would help to protect the Club.
This could be considered spot zoning due to the area being surrounded by R2 zoning. The Town would be denying property rights allowed to their neighbors.
Chairman Tilley suggested doing an overlay district. The Waynesville County Club has a zoning district of its own.
MR. BREDE MADE A MOTION TO TABLE THE ZONING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS TO ALLOW
ADDITIONAL EVALUATIONS INCLUDING THE POTENTIAL FOR AN OVERLAY DISTRICT.
MR. PIERCE SECONDED THE MOTION.
MOTION CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY.
Other Business
Chairman Tilley requested the agenda be adjusted to go straight into other business. First, Chairman Tilley explained that one of the council members asked for copies of the Planning Board minutes. For several years, the Planning Board has asked that the Council receive their minutes. Also, the reason Chairman Tilley attended today’s meeting was to be assured that Mr. Tooey’s business could be completed with a quorum present. Second, Chairman Tilley stated that she regretted that this meeting was not being taped. (The meeting was not taped because it was in the Conference Room rather than the Board Room) Chairman Tilley went on to read her letter of resignation. Chairman Tilley did not agree with the issues at hand, but due to her health, she felt that she could not put herself through the worry and aggravation.
Mr. Pierce submitted his resignation stating that he did not agree with the situation.
ON MOTION OF CHAIRMAN TILLEY, SECONDED BY MR. PIERCE, WITH ALL IN FAVOR
THE MEETING ADJOURNED AT 4:07 P.M.
