Charlotte County approves CCHouse LLC conditional use permit for truck stop; one abstention
Summary
The Charlotte County Board of Supervisors approved a conditional use permit for CCHouse, LLC to develop a truck stop along the county's growth corridor. The Planning Commission recommended approval with conditions; the motion passed with Supervisor Sherry Tharpe abstaining.
The Charlotte County Board of Supervisors voted May 14 to approve a conditional use permit (CUP) for CCHouse, LLC to develop a truck stop along a designated growth corridor.
Vice-Chair Hazel Bowman Smith moved to approve the CUP with the Planning Commission's recommended conditions; Supervisor Henry Carwile seconded. "This will be a great addition to the county and in a great area along the growth corridor," Vice-Chair Smith said. Supervisor Sherry Tharpe abstained from the vote; all other members present voted yes and the motion passed.
Assistant County Administrator Elder presented the staff report and told the Board the Planning Commission recommended approval with conditions following its public hearing. During the public hearing, Ted Hodges of Davenport Energy and resident George Toombs spoke in favor of the proposal. Mr. Patel, the applicant, confirmed his plan called for demolishing both buildings on the parcel.
The Board recorded no further amendments to the motion during the meeting. The County will implement the Planning Commission conditions specified in the staff report before issuing permits or zoning confirmations. The Board did not specify a construction timeline at the meeting.
The Board's next procedural step for land-use items is the usual permitting and zoning-confirmation process; the meeting record shows staff was instructed to proceed consistent with the Planning Commission conditions.
