The York County Planning Commission on May 12 approved five separate rezoning requests, each moved, seconded and approved during the meeting.
The commission approved: - Rezoning 25‑12 (tax map 622002): Applicant Gregory Scott Cannon — parcel at 1781 Yorkshire Road (about 4 acres, Rock Hill). The parcel was rezoned from UD (urban development) to LI (light industrial) to allow trucking operations and vehicle repair and to remove the property’s nonconforming status; staff said the change aligns with the I‑77 corridor employment future land‑use designation.
- Rezoning 25‑13: McAfee Redevelopment LLC, on behalf of owner Anita Feimster — rezoned roughly 30,000 square feet of a 1.58‑acre parcel from GC (general commercial) to RUD (rural residential) at 2782 York Highway to recombine the southern portion of the parcel with an adjacent lot and to support the ongoing McAfee redevelopment.
- Rezoning 25‑15 (tax map 457012): Applicant John Teisinger on behalf of John Teisinger IRR Trust — rezoned roughly 10 acres from RCEF‑40 to AGC (agricultural conservation) near Lincoln Road, allowing farming and a second home on the parcel.
- Rezoning 25‑16 (tax map 386007): State of Donald K. Johnson and Pamela Pendleton, PR — rezoned a 14.49‑acre parcel from RSF‑40 to AGC to enable recombination with adjacent estate parcels and future family division; staff recommended approval to match neighboring zones.
- Rezoning 25‑18 (tax map 721027): Applicant Markelos for Kroger Capital Investments, Inc. — rezoned a 5.73‑acre parcel in Fort Mill from UD to LI to expand uses to include outdoor storage; staff said the site and surrounding area are industrial in character and the request aligns with the artisan employment future land‑use designation.
Staff presentations noted the rationale for each request and recommended approval; commissioners asked clarifying questions about site access, recombination, and how the rezonings fit the future land‑use map. Each item was moved, seconded and passed with no recorded opposition in the meeting transcript. Motions and seconds were recorded but the transcript does not provide a roll‑call tally of individual votes.
The commission then moved on to a separate item: a proposed text amendment on data center building heights.
Summary of record actions: each of the five rezoning requests was approved and will be forwarded to county council for final action, per the county’s land‑use process.
