3. SPECIAL USE PERMIT
Doyle Stout made the motion, seconded by Tal Harrison to approve a Special Use
Permit for Section II; The Cross Road Rest & Retirement Center; State Road #2830;
Grant Township; Zoo Zoning District- Residential E-2; that would allow 14 additional
Assisted Living Units to be added to the original Rest Home Facility plan. The
addition would also include plans for an Administrative Building at a later date.
Appropriate buffer zones using professional plantings and foliage adjoining the
property will be provided with a 75' setback from the road frontage.
The motion was approved unanimously by the Board and the Special Use Permit
issued.
4. RE-ZONING REQUEST
The following re-zoning request was considered by the Board: High Point Elastics
Corporation, Corp. 79; High Point, N. C. ; located on Deaton Road; Trinity Township;
Zoning Map 2-2; requested that approximately 2.05 acres located in the County
Zoning District Residential-Agricultural be re-zoned from RA to Light Industrial-
Conditional Use. This would allow the construction of a 50 x 96 addition to the
existing building that was built prior to County Zoning Restrictions in 1979. The
current existing manufacturing facility is classified as a "Non-conforming Use"
under County Zoning Regulations and re-zoning would be required prior to any
expansion of the existing facility. High Point Elastics Corp. was seeking to
expand its facility to add approximately 4800 sq. ft. of storage space.
Gene Lewis, President, High Point Elastics, advised the Planning Board that
his company employs about 40 people and operates three shifts. The proposed expansion
would possibly allow him to add a few more employees, but this would not exceed 50
personnel due to Septic Tank requirements. Mr. Lewis said that tractor trailer
trucks go in and out of the plant each week.
Henry Hedgecock, Route 2, Trinity, N. C. , and who resides across from the plant
appeared before the Board and asked that the re-zoning request be denied on the
grounds that the area was Residential and that Deaton Road was not properly main-
tained to travel Transfer Trucks, School Buses and Automobiles. Mr. Hedgecock
presented the Board with a petition signed by persons who opposed Commercial
re-zoning in the area. The Planning Board questioned Mr. Hedgecock concerning
some of the names on the petition as to whether the persons signing the petition
were residents of the immediate area. Mr. Hedgecock said the petition was signed
by persons in the general area and asked the Board to consider the Residential
character of the area along with the poor access and road conditions.

After review and discussion Henry Darr made the motion that the request for
re-zoning be denied based on the poor condition of the road providing access to
the industrial property. Tal Harrison seconded the motion. A general discussion
between Board members followed and it was agreed that the poor condition of Deaton
Road (SR #1568) which provides access to the property was a major reason why the
re-zoning request should be denied.
The motion passed unanimously by the Board. (Recommendations from the
Planning Board will be forwarded to the County Board of Commissioners who will
hold a Public Hearing on the request at 2:30 p.m. on Monday, November 7, 1983.)
5. The Planning Board will not meet in November, 1983 due to no agenda items
and the next regular meeting will be Wednesday, December 7, 1983.
