Attorney Alan Pugh, representing Mr. Langston, presented the Planning Board with a detailed map and pictures of the area to indicate that the general land use in the area was industrial. The property is currently zoned Light Industrial and because the property is a large hole consisting of approximately 5 acres that a previous owner had scooped dirt out of and sold as field dirt, the use of the land has been severely restricted for construction purposes. The most viable alternative for the property would be for use as a Salvage or Junk Yard as is allowed in such industrial zoning district classification. Mr. Pugh asked that his client be given a conditional use light industrial re-zoning with appropriate buffer zones to allow the operation of a junk vehicle storage yard.
