Council approves small-business rezoning at Seacrest Shortcut to allow professional office
Summary
Council unanimously rezoned a 0.9-acre parcel at Seacrest Shortcut and Unionville-Indian Trail Road from residential to general business to allow conversion of an existing house to a small professional office.
The Indian Trail Town Council unanimously approved a rezoning request for a 0.9-acre parcel at the intersection of Seacrest Shortcut and Unionville-Indian Trail Road (ZM20250057). The approved designation, General Business District (GBD), is intended to allow conversion of the existing 1985 single-family house into a small professional office.
Planning staff said the parcel sits within a planned activity center identified for mixed use and is near existing commercial zoning and the Monroe Expressway. Staff recommended GBD because it supports the town’s comprehensive plan goal to create a more balanced tax base and coordinate land uses. No members of the public signed up to comment; the public hearing was opened and closed with no speakers.
Council adopted Ordinance No. 418 to implement the zoning amendment and approved a statement of consistency by unanimous vote. The rezoning changes only the zoning classification; any conversion of the building to office use will be subject to site plan review, building permits and parking and access requirements.
