Commissioners approve conditional rural commercial rezoning for Lester Construction on Stover Way
Summary
Davidson County commissioners approved rezoning 3.26 acres on Stover Way from RA3 (rural agricultural) to CZRC (conditional zoning rural commercial) for Lester Construction Company, with conditions including hours of operation, screening and designated storage and parking.
The Davidson County Board of Commissioners on April 14 approved a conditional zoning request by Lester Construction Company to rezone about 3.26 acres on the north side of Stover Way (approx. 300 feet east of Hornetown Road) from RA3 (rural agricultural) to CZRC (conditional rural commercial).
Planning staff summarized the applicant—s proposed conditions to the board before the public hearing. Those conditions included routine ground maintenance, designated exterior storage and equipment areas, designated parking, appropriate lighting, screening around the lot and proposed hours of operation of Monday through Saturday, 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. The applicant, who described the firm as a small residential construction company, said the facility would include an office, a small workshop for woodworking, an indoor material storage area and limited outdoor equipment storage. The applicant said he currently employs about six full-time staff and two part-time workers.
A nearby resident, Bill Stover, spoke in favor, saying the property had previous commercial uses and that Lester had improved the site. No opposition testimony was recorded.
Staff recommended approval, noting the area contains mixed uses and that soils in the immediate area have limited suitability for large-scale subdivisions, which supports lower-density commercial or mixed uses. The board approved the rezoning and adopted a statement of consistency by voice vote.
