Hope Mills approves initial zoning for 14.97-acre commercial site (ZNG-012-25)
Summary
The Hope Mills Board of Commissioners voted to approve ZNG-012-25, an initial zoning request to designate about 14.97 acres east of Town Center Drive and Rockfish Road as C2P Plan Service and Retail District; staff said the request aligns with the town's Southwest Cumberland Land Use Plan and no public speakers opposed the change.
The Hope Mills Board of Commissioners on a unanimous voice vote approved ZNG-012-25, an initial zoning request to rezone approximately 14.97 acres to the C2P Plan Service and Retail District.
Planning staff presented the application and map, saying the property lies roughly 200 feet east of the Town Center Drive–Rockfish Road intersection and is surrounded by a mix of commercial and residential parcels. “So tonight we'll be looking at the initial zoning request for KZNG012-25 … it’s a request to initially zone to C2P Plan Service and Retail District,” planning staff Xavier said during the presentation.
Xavier told the board the proposal is consistent with the 2013 Southwest Cumberland Land Use Plan and that the site has access to water and sewer. The public hearing was opened and closed with no members of the public speaking; the board then moved to approve the zoning request as presented.
The approval allows the property to be considered under the C2P district for future site planning and permitting. Staff and the applicant (Lori S. Epler on behalf of landowners including Palmer Williams and several LLCs) will proceed with application steps required by the town’s zoning ordinance.
The board did not record individual tallies in the transcript; the hearing record shows the motion carried without recorded opposition. The town clerk will file the official zoning action and staff advised any required map amendments and notice will follow.
