Planning Board Minutes July 13, 2021 Page 2 of 3 REZONING REQUEST #2021-00001741 CAROLINA TRAVEL MANAGEMENT, INC, Randleman, NC, is requesting to rezone 8.50 acres out of 29.54 acres at 10367 Randleman Rd, Level Cross Township, Randleman Lake Watershed, Tax ID #7758809298, Primary Growth Area, from HC-CU – Highway Commercial – Conditional Use District to HC-CD – Highway Commercial - Conditional District. The proposed Conditional Zoning District would specifically amend the existing Conditional Use Permit to allow an automobile and recreational vehicle sales lot as per the site plan. The existing Conditional Use Permit specifically allows tour travel operations Joyce opened the public hearing and asked if there was anyone present to speak in favor of the request. Jonathan Moody, 5069 Crackling Woods Ln., Randleman, NC, said the pandemic hit their organization very hard and they made the decision to reduce the number of vehicles (tour buses) for the business. He said the NCDMV requires a dealer’s license if five vehicles are sold so they are required to obtain a license to continue selling vehicles no longer needed. Davis asked if there would be any fabrication for the vehicles on site. Moody answered no. He said they will continue to make minor repairs as needed but no fabrication. Morgan said it didn’t appear to be increasing the footprint of the business with additional paving or structure. Moody agreed. He said they would be increasing available space by reducing the number of vehicles. Beeson asked if all of the vehicles for sale would be placed behind the fencing. Moody answered yes. Cable asked for the hours of operation. Moody said the hours would be the same as the office hours which are Monday through Friday from 8:30 a.m. until 5:00 p.m. Davis asked if there would be any lighting changes. Moody answered no. Joyce asked if he was just trying to comply with NCDMV regulations by obtaining a dealer’s license to reduce his fleet. Moody answered yes. Joyce asked if there was anyone else that would like to speak in favor of the request. Hearing none, Joyce asked if there was anyone that would like to speak in opposition to the request. Hearing none, Joyce closed the public hearing for discussion among the Board members and a motion. Cable said unfortunately the pandemic has affected multiple businesses in a negative manner, causing them to make adjustments accordingly. He said we are fortunate to have this business in Randolph County. Joyce said they are a reputable business and Planning Board Minutes July 13, 2021 Page 3 of 3 would like to see them continue. Slusher said he understands the challenges that have been made due to the pandemic and this request makes perfect sense and there is no opposition so he would continue with a motion. Slusher made the motion to approve the rezoning request to rezone the specified parcel(s) on the rezoning application to the requested zoning district based upon the Determination of Consistency and Findings of Reasonableness and Public Interest statements that are included in the Planning Board agenda, submitted during the rezoning presentation and as may be amended, incorporated into the motion, to be included in the minutes, as well as the site plan(s) with all agreed-upon revisions, also incorporated into the motion and that the request is consistent with the Randolph County Growth Management Plan. Cable made a second to the motion to approve the rezoning request. Joyce called the question on the motion to approve the rezoning request, and the motion was adopted unanimously. Having no further business, Joyce called for a motion to adjourn the meeting. Davis made the motion to adjourn with Vaughan making the second to the motion. Joyce called the question on the motion to adjourn and the motion was adopted unanimously. The meeting adjourned at 6:38 p.m. with 5 citizens present.

Determination of Consistency with the Growth Management Plan. A.
