Summary

The board approved rezoning roughly 4.72 acres from Agricultural Forestry to Commercial Neighborhood (future land use change to commercial) to permit a billboard; planning staff said the parcel is the only county parcel surrounded by city parcels and the planning commission recommended approval.

Planning staff presented a rezoning application to change approximately 4.72 acres on Laurel Island Parkway from Agricultural Forestry to Commercial Neighborhood and to update the future land use designation to commercial. The planner stated the parcel is surrounded by city parcels and that the Camden County Planning Commission recommended approval; there were no public speakers for or against the rezoning at the hearing.

A commissioner moved to approve the request, and after brief discussion about permitted uses under a commercial general designation (for example, restaurants), the board voted to carry the motion. The planning staff member noted the property is located in District 2 and explained that the change would allow the applicant to place a billboard on the parcel.
