Commissioners approve rezoning for 109 Catalina Court to allow accessory uses
Summary
The Board unanimously rezoned parcel 5023 (about 4.75 acres at 109 Catalina Court) from Restricted Residential to Rural Residential to allow broader accessory uses; applicant Michael Myers said he seeks space for a storage building and is not pursuing intensive commercial activity.
Planning Director Chris Martin presented Planning Case 26-01 and described the differences between Restricted Residential (RR) and Rural Residential (RU) zoning for parcel 5023 (approximately 4.75 acres at 109 Catalina Court) and said the Planning Board recommended approval. Martin said RU requires a larger minimum lot size but allows a wider range of rural-supporting non-residential uses.
Applicant Michael Myers, who lives at 101 Catalina Court, spoke in support. Myers told the Board he is "not requesting any intensive commercial use and intends to maintain the property in a manner consistent with the surrounding rural setting," and said the rezoning would primarily permit an accessory storage building. After brief commissioner comments noting compatibility with the surrounding pattern, Commissioner Deb Hardin moved to approve the rezoning; the motion was seconded by Commissioner Johnny Hutchins and passed unanimously.
The Board found the rezoning consistent with the county’s Land Use Plan and suitable for maintaining the area's rural character. The public hearing was opened and closed with only the applicant speaking in favor.
