Commission approves rezoning on Greenhaw Road for office and shop; agent says no opposition
Summary
The commission approved rezoning about 14.18 acres on Greenhaw Road from A (Agricultural) to C-1 (Commercial, restricted) to allow an office and a shop for the applicant; the Planning Commission had recommended approval and the county recorded that no one spoke in opposition at the hearing.
Franklin County commissioners voted June 22 to rezone a roughly 14.18-acre portion of Parcel 18.00 on Greenhaw Road from A (Agricultural) to C-1 (Commercial, restricted). Planning staff had recommended approval and the Planning Commission forwarded the case after a April 28 meeting.
At the county public hearing agent Clifton Miller spoke for the rezoning and said the request was "for building an office and a shop." The minutes record that no one spoke in opposition during the public hearing. The motion to rezone the parcel passed on a roll-call vote with the majority of the full membership in favor, and the case is recorded as approved in the county minutes.
The staff report attached to the Planning Commission minutes notes the parcel's frontage on Greenhaw Road (approximately 421 feet), the availability of four-inch Decherd Water service along the road, the lack of identified FEMA flood hazards on the site, and the Planning Department's determination that the proposal was generally in compliance with the Franklin County Zoning Resolution. Eric Bradford, building commissioner, told the hearing that drainage concerns raised by an adjoining landowner would be addressed during plot-plan review if the rezoning is implemented.
The adopted action allows the property owner or their agent to pursue building permits and subsequent site plans consistent with C-1 restricted uses; the minutes show the Planning Commission recommendation and the county vote on June 22.
