Rural Growth Areasare areas where significant highintensityresidential growth is discouraged or not anticipated for ten (10) to fifteen (15) years.

B.Consistency with Growth Policies in the Growth Management Plan Policy 2.7 The County should ensure that land development decisions are made to protect surface and groundwater resources through protection, preservation, and development enhancement. Consistency Analysis: The applicant, along with their surveyor,has worked with staff to ensure that the proposed development, if developed according to the proposed site plan, would have as minimal an impact on Randleman Lake as possible. The applicant has reduced the size ofthe development to ensure compliance withimpervious surface regulations as outlined in the Randolph County Unified Development Ordinance. Policy 4.3 Individual Rural Business or Highway Commercial rezoning decisions will depend upon the scale of the proposed development as it relates to the specific site and location weighed against impacts to adjoining rural land uses. Consistency Analysis:As stated previously, the applicant has worked with staff to ensure that the proposed development complieswith the impervious surface regulations. Thesurrounding propertyis mostly residential but, if developed according to the proposed site plan, should have little impact on the adjoining land uses. 2.Statement of Reasonableness and Public Interest Reasonableness and Public Interest Analysis: The policies listed above illustrate how this request is consistent with the Ordinance, the Plan and applicable General Statutes.The parcel in this rezoning request is subject to the Conditions agreed upon between the property owner and the Planning Board.
