The Land Use Committee advanced Bill 26‑01 to rezone about 1.11 acres on Old Highway 52 from manufactured residential (R‑2) to general commercial (GC) for a mini‑warehouse expansion after staff and the planning commission recommended approval.

The Land Use Committee considered Bill 26‑01, an order to modify Berkeley County’s official zoning and development standards map for roughly 1.11 acres on Old Highway 52. Planning staff (Miss Simmons) told the committee the applicant seeks the rezoning to expand an existing mini‑warehouse facility and to enable a similar use on the adjacent tract. Staff recommended approval and the planning commission had unanimously recommended approval; the committee then moved and voted to advance the item.

Miss Simmons summarized the application and the unanimous planning commission vote, noting there was no opposition at the planning stage. Councilman Pinkney moved for approval and councilman Owens seconded; the committee recorded no objections and the motion carried.

The item was considered prior to first reading and will follow normal ordinance processing and subsequent readings as required by county procedures.
