ment of a new mobile home park. Mr. Winrey presented the Board with

Mr. Winrey stated his concerns for safety and the loss of property values
in the area.
The Planning Board noted that there were 4 large chicken houses adjoining
the proposed site and other small farming operations. The Board also
noted the county's proposed Land Development Plan outlines this area as
a Restricted Residential allowing individual homes on single lots and
farming The proposed access road to the proposed Mobile Home Park
would also pass within 8-10 feet of an adjoining site built home.

3. REZONING REQUEST
A: Elton McNeill, Route 10, Asheboro, North Carolina, was requesting that
approximately } acre (or a portion not to exceed 50' in width) located
on Luck Road (SR #2604) also known as Spoons Chapel Road; Zoning District
E-2; Grant Township; be rezoned to Highway Commercial-Conditional Use.
The applicant desires to use this portion of land for an automotive
sales lot.
The Planning Board had previously reviewed this rezoning request at
it's August meeting. The Board action at that time was to deny the
request. Mr. McNeill had not been able to attend either the Planning
Board or the subsequent Board of Commissioners meetings and asked if
the request could be reconsidered.

Jack McNeill, son of the owner, attended the meeting. Mr. NcNeill
said that there would never be more than 5 or 6 cars on the lot, and
that there would be no opposition to the request because family members
owned all the adjoining property. Mr. McNeill said that the amount of
property being used would probably not exceed 50 feet in width.
After review and discussion, Tal Harrison made the motion, seconded
by Doyle Stout, to recommend to the Board of Commissioners that the
rezoning request be denied. The Board felt that rezoning a small
tract of land in the middle of a residential-agricultural rural area
would constitute "spot zoning" and would not be legal. The Planning
Board also noted the tendency for small car repair and sales lots to
grow beyond what the owner originally intended. This motion passed
unanimously. Recommendations from the Planning Board will be forwarded
to the Randolph County Board of Commissioners at their November meeting.
4: ZONING ORDINANCE REVIEW
A: Ginger Brooks, Staff Attorney, Piedmont Triad Council of Governments,
reviewed with the Planning Board some possible revisions to the County
Zoning Ordinance. Among the revisions discussed was the establishment
of a special Mixed Housing District where Mobile Home Parks could be
• located after rezoning; the establishment of criteria for defining a
"Junkyard", so as to make the definition more applicable to the rural
areas and therefore lending itself to more effective enforcement; and
the establishment of a new zoning district called Rural Commercial.
This district would be designed to allow certain rural commercial
uses of land that are customary to the county type of living and would
be handled through the Special Use Permit process. Ms. Booker is
preparing the Planning Board a study sheet of the possible changes
and will present this for study at a later date.
5: Being no further business, the Board adjourned at 3:15.
